Kira's Graphics

[Ewan]

I think these two are my favourites. When I make a tag, I'm always looking to try and fill up space with tons of effects without thinking about trying to make the best looking one. I think the simple style you've used on these is outstanding.

The banner behind the text on the first one looks really modern and fits in very well with the stock. As usual, the text is spot on.

There's something I like about the Tifa tag as well. I think it might be the white space, it just looks really cool. Kinda reminds me of that modern art you see these days, just random shapes and lots of empty space. It works really well.
I would be tempted to slightly smudge the bottom though, just to get some subtle effects going on but again that's just me.

"Graye; Hahaha, I think you're officially the last person to comment on my text now. Yay, there's something I'm good at. xD!!"
Don't pretend you didn't know you were good Great work yet again

This set is simply gorgeous!

I love the pinks and purples you've used and the smudgy look in the background looks fantastic!

The lighting is spot on and the little sparkles in the background looks so pretty as do the little stars. <3

I simply love that image of Tifa too by the way. It's such a detailed and dangerous looking version of Tifa!

Fantastic blending and as always brilliant job on the text! Lovely positioning and that little heart tops it off. <3

I rather like this one.

It's nice and simple and very clean looking.

I love the text and the purplish glow it has around it. The only thing I could suggest is to maybe implement the same text you used in the above one.

Those few extra lines I think would liven it up a bit more and make it look less plain.

Other than that fantastic work!​

Wow kira these are beautiful. Im obviously screwed in the GFX tournament.
Seriously though, realy well done, these pieces are beautiful!!

I do like the shade of purple you put in the sig, but the size of the sig is way to big, shorten it down, work with a smaller canvas. That is what i see your main issue is. Instead of going like 400x200, try a size 400x100 or 400x150, they will prove to give you a better way of going about your effects. that is all i can say, also just keep up the good work.

First of all, I love Edd. <3

Second, the icon was something different. My friends tried that thing with the hand the other day LOL I liked the general texture of it, render = ver nice, only thing I'm not big bout is the text. And I thought you were the queen of text! JK Maybe a little something more gentle?

Oh god. I love the sig. Love the purple BG, the texture, the flowers and just about everything. The text in this one was perfect. Love the render as well.

All in all, Well Done Kira, Keep it Up!

p.s. I'm sorry I've been off for a while :[

What a load of crap you speak Ken honestly

I was wuite surprised when i saw this one. I really really like it. I think overall its very presentable. Nice placement of image and good placement of light ( at least i think it was intentional) My only quarry is that i think the colours are a bit boring. I know you like purple but the tag looks a bit monotone. Try using another colour. A rich orange would go well with the purple used in this tag i think. Nice work

 

[Six]

Joey; Hah, no way. xD Thanks!

Raging; Though I do appreciate the C&C, the canvas size I used was 360x180. I'm not sure how 400x100 will improve my works. That's a shite size to work with, in my opinion. xD I don't like how that comes together at all. Gotta have some height.

Sab; LOL. I didn't title myself that. But nah, 8F I used the text big a blunt, 'cause it's an icon for on MSN. It was my intention to get it big and bold.

Im glad you like the sig. Thanks muchies for the comments, guys! <3

Edit:

To be honest, Lew. I'ma do the original colour one of this one as well. I was talking to Jess last night, and I asked her why I prefered the PINK over my purple version. I'ma show you the original stock, looks so full. It's omnomnom.

And rofl. Thanks for the comment, Lewis. Greatly appreciated.

 

[Kandy-Sugar]

This one is rather nice!

I like the simplicity of it and how her hair stands out!

The text is done brilliantly! I love the font used and the transparent red stroke around it.

Great work!
​

​

Simply gorgeous!

Loving the purple and the image used.

The background is nice and girly. Love the sparkles and how it seems to glow. I noticed a butterfly in the background too! It looks fantastic!

The lighting is looking good but I don't quite agree with the text for once.

The fonts used look great but I think that the colour of it would look better in white.

That's just me personally though.

Keep up the great work!​

Kandy; xD I originally had it white. I thought it stood out too much, and lowering the opacity just looked weird, so I decided to keep it a black font. xD

Thanks for the comments.

Ooh! Pretty avatars!

I especially love the first one!

The simplicity of it is eye catching! I love the plain background and the pretty text you have at the bottom! Very cute picture as well. It all fits in nicely together.

Out of the other three avatars you couldn't decide on, the one I liked was the 'Love' one.

The transparent text looks great with a glow on the outside.

I like the purple haze it seems to have too. Great work!

Fantastic work on this one!

I love the simply background and the image of the girl!

The creamy yellow squiggly line is simply gorgeous! I want to know how you did that!

The hearts are a perfect addition to this signature and teh text looks fantastic! I especially love the font on the first line of text! Very pretty.

Nice work on this one.

Very simple and appealing.

The purple haze looks very pretty and the softness of it all looks great!

The text is placed well and the font is very suitable. Love the transparent purple too!

Kandy; Thanks, glad you liked them. xD The scribbled yellow line were two brushes. Originally shorter so I attached the two together to make it longer. xD

Made a new set. I quite liked it.

Icons;

I wanted a colour that suited her lips. Not sure which turned out better, but the one I'm using is the one I liked best. xD

Das ist all.

...Ps;

I hate the dark ForumSkin. xD Rofl, no offense, but black borders look shite now, although this sig looked alot better with a black than a white border.

...Pss;

Everyone get the LainieDaySH Font!!!! It's so amazing. I'm addicted to it, and almost ALWAYS goes perfectly with any straight font. -sprints in triangles-.

 

[Shu]

Bang up Job Kira. I'm lovin the lady love miss Tifa Lock. She's fine in those GFX renders.

Good work and keep it up!

Boredom stabbed me in the face, this is the outcome. xD Random but I figured I'd post it anyway.

Also, not sure if it's noticeable. But there's a smudge mark on the white sig. 'Cause I messed up and copied the layer, than cut some edges, and darkened it, now it looks weird. It's not very noticeable, but... I noticed it

 

[Sexy Beast]

I think this is the best out of the three, but i do think a bit more could be done. The white bg is a good go for, but maybe a texture of some sort can be added to give it more depth. Also, maybe some extra effects can be done to give it a more eye-popping appearance. I do like the design you put on her face, it makes her look freaky, and awesome

Okay, this is byfar your most sexy work yet . the lighting is coming along pretty well. I see you tried to top mine, almost there . The effects are great-ish. I love what you did with them. Although i feel it could have a bit more depth. Like maybe the colors you did on the left side with the yellow, you can make that as the same of the other side, to give it a more balanced look.

Keep up the good work, your coming along greatly.

 

[Kandy-Sugar]

This one looked the bets in my opinion. =D

I love the image you used and was it originally grayscale? Did you add the orange bits? If so they look awesome. XD

Loving the simplicity of this one!

The white background helps the image and text make a much bolder statement.

Loving the font as always. The text running through 'Colours' looks simply fantastic!

Keep up the aweseomeness!

Very cute work on this one!

The mixture of colours with the sparkles and lines is very pretty though I wasn't too fond of one of the lines crossing over onto her arm.

The paint splatter behind her looks good and the softness of it all looks lovely.

Gorgeous font again too. <3

Rage, Kandy; Thanks guys, I appreciate the comments. I got bothered by the line on her arm as well, but it couldn't be helped 'cause it didn't bug me until after i deleted the .PSD -Headdesk- Good job, me.

I liked the white borders one. Not saying that I hated the others...

It looks so amazing with the swirly effects and the BG colours, good job on the lighting and the text 'EGO'. TBH, I think you should've included the body as well :/

KIU

Im gunna go and say i think this is the best thing uv made yet to date. No questions asked. The colours and layout are what strikes me as the best things in the tag. Theyre really to a high quality. None of the colours are clashing and they compliment eachother very well. The tag has an almost white feel to itV i think its very appealing. I really like the text, nice mixture of fonts, each one complimenting the one above and below. Something i didnt notice at first was the blending to the right. I think this is the first time iv seen you blend in an image like that. It looks really really. . . .''lovely' But seriously its really good. I think you should definately stick to it in future works. I cant offer much in the way of constructive comments as i think the tag is pretty spot on. Maybe some sharpening and blurring around the face and BG to help the depth. Very nice work

 

[Mitsuki]

I love the simplicity and natural colors used in here...reminds me of earthy tones except for the purple, which matches the soft hazy look all across the signature. Normally I'm not into purple, but you and Ryan have really convinced me otherwise.

Looks pretty amazing if you ask me. I do think the black border suits it a lot better than it would a white just because it goes well with the other lines in the sig. The grungy look (yet not quite the grungy effect) looks almost smooth here which is pretty good skill. It's probably the way you added your blur. Text is quite good, especially the Tifa Lockhart one.

Now this is exquisitely done in a most fashion manner. The ripple effect almost looks kinda 'icy'...it's a good thing that it looks a little blurred and not too distinct - really works well with the lighter colors. I can see some use of different filters here and you've managed to really take control of the direction of your effects and not go overboard at the same time. I like that. I think that simplicity is always the best route to go. This tag is just amazing and the subject was blended in very well -- even the focal placement is appealing. Great job, Kira!
