Voted for Scrubs. I've never seen him around, and he seems to have some talent. As always, I love all of the entries.

[Gregorious]

MC got my vote, it just meshes really well. Scrubs' was really good, Kwes as well. Fon's looks great too, but for me the colour scheme is not quite right.

[Blacksite]

Let's get some more votes in, guys.

[DarkVincent07]

Gotta vote for kwes. So slick

[podsaurus]

Going with MC but Xelios is a close second

[Scrubs42]

Between Kwe's and MC for me.
MC got my vote in the end. The application of the chosen C4d's are brilliant around Dr. Doom. The choice of C4D's match the character perfectly. The depth in this signature is very well conveyed through the use of blur and detail. and the lighting is done very well. The text is applied tastefully and the choice of colour is very nice. Very nice work.
Kwe has a good sense of lighting and flow. I love the use of splatter brushes that add to the comic book style and very nice colour scheme too. Matches the render suitably. However I find the contrast far too harsh between light and dark, espicially on the render itself. (I don't know if the sections were black in the original) Nice sense of depth using blur and attention to character detail (american flag) in the background. Nice negative text application. I'm still not too sure on the whole vertical render set-up but thats a personal quirk.

You were on your way there Greg, I think with a little more time you may have had a complete signature, looks a bit like a WIP. Love you use of distortion effects however and the colours match the render very well, very nice blending. A border and text wouldn't go a miss. More focus on the render would be welcomed. It is a bit small in the whole signature, maybe just using her face, and shoulder would have filled more space.

Good work everyone.

[Blacksite]

A decent turnout in votes. Let's keep them coming though.

[Xelios]

Wow I can't believe you actually included it. Truth be told, I actually forgot about this haha.

Voted for C-Carcharias though. That sig is just awesome.

Yeah, you called it. I was happy with the background direction, but I'll admit I kind of just dropped her in at the end. I was struggling to find a to add some mid-level work, but I was just never happy the way it came out. I can't quite pull it off near as well as Kwes or MC.

[Blacksite]

This was a pretty good turnout, considering I stopped advertising these in the PS3 Games section. The poll should close tomorrow though.

I will get the December SOTM voting thread up tomorrow and hopefully a 2011 SOTY thread up the following week where you guys will decide which is your favorite SOTM winning entry for the year. I'm thinking that the winner will get something like 20,000 SP and +rep.

[spyrde]

WTF when did C-C come back?!?!?

Yeah sorry guys, went on vacation two weeks ago and just came back so I'm a bit out on things


I vote for Fon btw.

[Blacksite]

Congrats, C-Carcharias.

I'm going to close this thread early because I can never access the site at night without having the servers crash. Keep an eye out for the September and December SOTM voting threads as well as the next SOTW theme & entry thread which should all be up and running within the next half-hour.
