Not bad at all =] its a bit plain and lacks effects imo and that random black splodge on the right is a little distracting, work on getting some more effects in there somewhere, get some c4ds or fractals to use

well for a first its not that bad...

at least you made it blend unlike so many others who just paste in the render onto a bkg and call it a sig, the shadow effect on the render makes it look somewhat lq, its a bit empty to the right but you getting the hang of it, keep it up...

Yea I tried to emphasize the arm but it hasn't had the desired effect, oh well all this has given me more ideas for my next try xd

C4D's are for people that mastered the basics of sig making.

Practice the basics of sig making before you move into something more advance.

C4D's are part of a lot of noobies experience in making sigs the basics arent hard to grasp, flow depth and lighting these cant even be called basics because these are applied in even pro sigs so if they can achieve these even to a small level they have mastered the basics thats why they are called basics because its the 1st stepping stone to becoming a pro

It's pretty neat on how you blend the colors in to make the image fit the theme, but I think it would have been a little better if you add some sort of effect or something unique to take the plainness away.
