So since I had Photoshop and do know how to work with some of the things, as I have done some previous things on the program (Nothing GFX related tho), I decided to make an attempt on my first GFX work. I would love some advice on how to improve, as I had loads of fun and will definitely be doing more.

This seems very decent for a first time. I tried and it couldn't be even called as a very bad GFX attempt because I didn't even move from the render.

See if some of the tuts in this section are of any use to you, they're kind of out dated but its something for starter

The Link that @Anzo has posted is a great starter for people getting into GFX'ing. It definitely helped me out a lot. 
Nice 1st attempt on your Signature. With some more GFX practice, I'm 100% sure you can become a GFX Artiste!
Good luck in your works @Pepchoninga

Thank you ^^ I did look up some of the articles, but I'm mostly trying to experiment with the tools until I find how everything works.


Here is my second attempt.

I've used this render before, quite tricky to catch the flow.

You just keep experimenting. For starter, try to spend more than 2 minutes on your signature, spend at least 15 minute, keep adding things and removing things until you be like "it looks decent".

Well atm, I'm having problems getting good c4d's and backgrounds like you get them. 


So just trying to experiment with as many things as posible.

Google stuff you think fits with your render, like if you got a warrior render Google "battlefield" of if you've got a princess render Google "palace" and things like that. Then you add C4D or any other effects to it.

Thanks a lot.


One more thing: What size do you make your signatures, since I like it a lot?

Anzo's current Signature is 500x300.

It's 500x300, but when i first started 400x140 was a thing. Then i moved to 400x180 and 400x200. It's anything you feel comfortable with. I've even worked on 1000x500 or bigger numbers at some points, my biggest was 8000x2000 (that was for a job though) lol. But, keep it small for now. 400x140 should suffice.

For the couple after the first one I've used 500x315, since it looked relatively good in Photoshop, tho It probably will be better to lower the hight a bit.

Smaller spaces means you get to focus more. So it's better for beginners.

I'm curently experimenting with size as well.


All and all, it's incredibly fun, and the basics are not as hard to understand as I first thought to.

Nah, you should understand everything you need to know in a matter of few days, though advancing from there is up to your imagination.
