Figured I would gather and post some work I have done since joining this fed. Some are reposts, some are unfinished, work in progress, some are edits. Some were just practice concepts that I couldn't quite figure a way to be happy with. And some are actually complete.













































and some more none apw stuff





























































Im gonna end it here, but if anyone is interested I have pretty much everything I have ever done, from beginning to now on photobucket user name macdaddysquid.

Not bad, I'm a fan of many of the logo's you made. Personally, I can't stand some of the, what I call, pop out sigs, the ones with transparent background. For example the one with Jack Swagger, Corey Shane, the one on the right, his hand is cut off, I think had you not cut off the hand, it would have looked much better. Same with Trevor Rod. IMO, when you have pop out ones where you can see the end of the image, it's brings down the work. That's why, any pop out one i've ever done, there is no background as that tends to happen.

In comparison, many of the banner worked, the ones like the Wrecking Crew and Nate Kendrick, are very well made. Very clean, I prefer them against your pop out ones. I'd suggest, for those ones at least, a border of some sort, would make it look much more cleaner and professional looking, which would fit them better. Some times, it's not needed, as it won't fit the graphic.

Another thing, sometimes less is more, especially with the B-Harv sig, so much is going on in that one.

Overall, my favorites are the Calvin Ingram, the Nate Kendrick, and a lot of the Warren Peace ones, but the first one with the guy from Sons of Anarchy (?) with his guns coming out of his back and the two chicks is probably my favorite of those.

Just some advice, I know you weren't really looking for it, but I felt that it could help your work.

NO dude advice is always good. I have been above average, but I am not excellent at photoshopping. I am self taught and I don't have patience for tutorials. I do lack in some respects, and agree the "pop out" ones as you call them need work. I am very anal about my art, often times deciding to quit if I can't accomplish exactly how I see it in my head. So that's why I have been doing more of those kinds of sigs for a while, because I have created a demanding practice.
