BASIC SIG MAKING

Things you may want to keep in mind when making sigs are depth , lighting , and blending. These three things play a big roll in sig making. In most of my sigs i have a light source. I tend to put this on the brighter side of the render. If there is no brighter side you can easily make one with dodge/burn tool.

Another thing you want to keep in mind while making a sig is your background. You want the background to blend well with the render you use. You also don't want your background to be too bright so people don't notice your render. Your render should be your focal point.

The size of your sig is also a key thing. You don't want it to be really big so it looks bad. I like to use a size of a height in the high 300's or early 400's and a width somewhere around the early 300's. If you don't like that size you can always choose differently and find what is comfortable with you.

Here are a few examples of sigs i have made
