Guide to make a Signature !!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gonna explain the way it needs to be done and how to do it.
Softwares used.
1. Photoshop Cs3
2. C4D a.k.a Cinema 4D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
:: Guide ::
Ending result should be something like this.
Tried to make it as simple as I could. Post in your doubts here. and I shall try to reply to them. but I think experimenting wid different utils in photoshop may turn out the result to be better than mine
--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------
4 steps at a time.. so it goes slow and easy wid u guys.

Putting it in a step by step guide.. easy to understand and hope it works for u guys
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.> Start a new project setting the size to 400×150 and filling the background with black.
2.> Now add your render picture, for this tutorial I used a really straight forward captain america render which I sourced from planetrenders Code: Select all
http://planetrenders.net/renders/index.php
(simply head over there and search for captain america).
3.> Next we’ll need to cleanse the render. Since I only want Captain America to be the focal point of this signature we’ll smudge optimus prime out with the smudge tool. Once you smudge out what you don’t need follow up by sharpening the image by going to
Filter › Sharpen › Sharpen. The end result is below.
4.>For the next layer add a fire or flame render, I used flames that I cropped off of an old Iron Man render but you can use whatever you want. You’ll need to set the layer type to screen and then erase around the focal area so that Captain America is visible, see below.

In this tutorial you learnt about adding gradient maps, clipping masks and the application of c4d’s to your images. These are techniques that can be applied to any image/render/signature combination so try your best to come up with something new.
In fact anyone who follows this tutorial and comes out with the exact same image is achieving nothing, so guys use a different render, try different colors and just plain old experiment, because you never know what you might uncover.
Gn guys !!
gonna make sm siggys tomorrow.
