LPF entry:

e n i g m a: Not too bad. But a little too trendwhore, as lnkn hinted *ahem*. Some of the effexts went awry because of the overall "frozen" look. But, a little bit sticks out prominently. Blending could've been better, but seems clean enough for a TW. The text; Somehow, I never really liked that sort of font. Suits certain TW works, though. But, I'm afraid I don't feel it suits this. But the bevel freeze thing seems to work for it. The pixelated underline, was a pretty good try, but too transparent and covering too much space, IMO. All in all, though, that's a good piece of work, but sorry, no cigar.

lnkn: Very impressive piece. One word comes to mind, subtle. I like the way the brushing just stays there, yet attracts no over-powering attention, yet makes an impact. Also, how the render seems just right, and seems to make you feel tranquil. The colour scheme got me, very different, and very eye-catching. It's also a light change of blending, from colour to cloud. And again, the text demands the word, subtle. Nice, fits in fine, and does the job. Though, I myself would've gone for a much more eye-catching text, and maybe larger, you seem to pull it off. Nice job.

And my vote goes to: lnkn.

Great job, both of you.

[iggy!]

Thanks . BTW I was going for trendwhore. I like it .

Nice entries by both of you. But my vote will have to go to enigma.

LPF: A very nice entry, one of your better sigs in my opinion. The only thing i did not like about this piece was the bland color and the lack of effects in the background. Very nice brushing and blending, but i think it would have been nicer to see something other than just clouds behind the brushing. Also, i don't think the text stands out enough. It is well placed, but it is much too faded in my opinion. A very close one though.

enigma: Even though it is trendwhore (which is ridiculous because I often dont see that style used as much anymore) It still looks like you have put more effort into it. I love the background here, and the stock has been well blended. The text also pulled me in, although i think it could do with a dark shadow or dark stroke around it to help it stand out more.

A very close battle. I almost didn't vote. Well done though to you both.

My vote goes to Lnkn.

I liked the colors, nice and soft. The brushing doesn't seem overdone. Also, I think in this case not having a border actually helped.

Enigma - Yours was very good as well. My only advice was maybe add some more color. The blue is pretty, just maybe like a few more shades of it. I liked your stock too.


Good job, guys.

[iggy!]

Thanks for your votes. Gosh Joe don't go with your hometown brother lol. And thanks cyber for the vote coming my way .

Anyway 2-1 in Lnkn's way. Just a few votes left people. Remember first to 3.

My vote has to go to lnkn.

Because his work just seems to be smooth and settled where enigma's work seem slightly more rough.

[iggy!]
