Stock was one of Breaking Benjamin's album's art. Render is sharpened, and added some light bloom on it. Also sharpened the whole thing (the stock was kinda blurry). Tried to do something new, and I want to do something else with it, I just don't know what.
Well, Here it is:

-/10 if you want.

How do you rate an image that was cropped and called a sig?

It's not just cropped. You apparently did not read my post. I did several things to it. Also

You are so helpful Scotch.
Maybe you could try some hue, saturation, etc. I dunno, I think it looks good, reguardless of its cropness.

Well, I want to do something that adds my own uniqueness to it in a significant way.
Update:

Added some contrast.

I understand the feeling.

Updated the post above you. Thinking maybe you missed that.

Looks a bit better, just still needs a little more personalization.

What I really want to do is write "Evil Angel" in the wings, but then there will be too much text and it will end up looking bad.

Different Border is needed.
dont use that boreder with stocks so much.
I would suggest adding some C4d or something

Okay, I'll try a new border, and I don't have C4D, can you point me to a good source of C4D renders?

First off, Lets see the stock, so we get a comparison of what you actually did.

The first one was pretty much sharpened to make it clearer (the stock is pretty blurry), but I mentioned I wanted to do something else with it, just didn't know what. I knew with just what I had it wasn't going to be enough to even be considered more than a crop with text and a border stuck on. I'm working on a c4d and redone text right now, so don't consider any of the ones I posted before a final. Also, armed what do you recommend for a border on this one? (you mentioned not to use the one that's already on there)

Black 1 px inward stroke.

Well, I've used that border a lot before (including in my current), I was trying to do something different, and I've seen the border I used here look good in a lot of armed's sigs. Well, I'll try that one, cuda, to see how it looks.
EDIT:

Added c4d (c4d by
OldManJames)
New border
New Text on the left side

Now you can't even tell what it is.

Don't exactly see what you're saying there, Phos.

In your latest version you cant tell what anything is. Its hard to distinguish the guy from the background.
