Working on this new sig(WIP)

[True-Warrior]

I gave up on the other sig....didnt know what to do next

I got this background I made in photoshop CS2

and I couldnt find a right picture to go with it, so I picked this picture 4 no apparent reason

so I came out with these 2(theres others but I chose these 2)

I'ma add the text later and what not

the problem is which one is better or how can I improve this signature...I think the background art is decent but knowing you guys........theres something to crit about

Make it at LEAST twice as small. Too big and backgrounds will start to look repetetive. It's also really sharp and bright on the eyes.

I was gonna make it small just brought it out more for posting

1st one is better definitly!

Put the stock in front of the BG it's way too distracting and there isn't really a focal point.

 

[True-Warrior]

its like that because I have the picture saturated in one layer and i think soft light in the other layer excluding BG

We're giving crits and you're explaining what you did -.-

The point to criticism is, you know, to improve.

The first one is better because you can see the stock better. Just try figuring out a way to make the skin less purple. That is if you insist on keeping the stock behind the background.
Second would be a lot better if you just took your eraser tool, set the hardness close to 0% and start erasing the background off Sasukes face, neck and chest. Just to make the stock more clear.

And if you resized the whole sig to 50% of the original size, it would look a bit more sophisticated...
