Oversharpened, pixellated, and brushes err baddddd mmkay. I take it you're just starting out at photoshop, keep practicing (:

I like the color combination though.

That's a very impressive codpiece.

On the banner/signature image, I've never been a real fan of the use of over-crowding brush strokes on something as small as a sig, it kind of hides the warrior. A neutral background with some understated flair would be better, I my opinion, of course.

Surely though, that's what art is all about? It's definetly not a tent filled with the names of random men you got drunk with for no reason

And what if the person happens to be attempting making something grungy looking? Grunge isn't achieved through intensive AA and soft edges.

I have been making banners for 2 years now, thank you very much. I Don't like a lot of banner art's C4D-heavy work, so I've sort of made my own sort of style. Many other artists' banners seem to look redundent when seen over and over, so I made a conscious effort to break away from that mold.
