I've been working with Photoshop for a while now and though it's not anything exceptional, I just though I'd post some of my work^^

My honest opinion is that the first two are a tad over sharpened. I'm not sure if it's just the look you were going for, but when I start seeing jagged edges on the extracted stock, I use it as a sign to double-check whether I should backpedal a bit on the sharpening or apply a layer mask. There are situations where I think it looks nice, but that's if you're going for that classic grainy photo look and need everything to look rough. In this situation however, you've got these C4Ds going on everywhere which look very defined and have crisp clean edges which is in stark contrast to the jagged anime girls.

The first one in particular I think is overly-contrasted. The highlights and shadows are extra-prominent while the midtones are muted and hard to notice; I feel like this makes it hard on the eyes to look at, with strong whites and blacks that make the interesting colors and details in between get lost. The second one I would argue has the opposite problem, where there's plenty of mid-tones but no pronounced shadows or highlights, making it feel too flat to me, despite the very noisy c4d(or whatever) render(s). Again, maybe you were going for these effects, I wouldn't know, but they're my opinions nonetheless.

The third one is a bit dark, but it looks clean. I like it. There's only a few highlights and I feel like there's a lot of interesting things I can clearly distinguish at almost everywhere on the sig. The black corners kind of give it a pseudo vignette effect too, which brings my attention more to the center naturally. Keeping all these points in mind, I'm also a fan of the third sig in your previous post as well.

I think the crux of my problems with the other tags is that C4D renders tend to add too many highlights or too many shadows to an image depending on the layer mode you use to blend it into your sig. While I think they're a lot of fun to use and the abstract shapes are very interesting visually, I believe they ultimately have better impact when used deliberately and carefully.

Well, take from it as you will, that was all based on what I like to look at after all; keep up the good work.
