Those flares are sooo perfectly placed and so well done. T_T The lighting is insane and the font is just perfect. A very beautiful signature!

number 2 for me, it just feels the most complete as a signature love number 4 as well but it seems a bit bland with not many effects soo number 2 gets my vote

I love 5!! It's so much different to all the others, I think it's fantastic!

1 was a close second for me as well just the girls animation was a little bit random

1.) Okay let's see, you have multiple animations, some of which are laggy. There's the moving image that messes up the entire thing for me. The colors are monotonous, and quite frankly, I am not a big fan of it.

2.) Not much I can say for this one as I don't really have a solid opinion about it. Not that it isn't bad, but it's not exceptionally good, either. It's sort of in the middle. The design itself seems half-done. What I mean by this is that, it looks like it could have been finely-tuned with some nice lighting, blurring, and the works.

4.) This one looks more finished. I like the lighting, but the one on the shoulder looks too random. Based on the way the natural lighting of the stock is, the lighting up in the top-left is the correct position for a lighting source. As for the text, I feel it could have been much more simpler instead of a handwriting/cursive font. It's nice, yes; but doesn't really fit the mood of the character imo.

5.) This one is tricky. A lot of shit is done, and it's colorful. Lots of random lighting sources throughout, and makes me confused on where I'm supposed to be focused on. To put it simply, there isn't a definite focal. Futhermore, the vibrant colors do not fit FemShep...like at all. I imagine her mood being more broody. Like, it's a good sig, no doubt about that; but, the colors just don't give off any representation of the mood of FemShep. I am just turned off from that, but i can't deny that the amount of effort put into this one overshadows all of these doubts.

In the end, I voted for 5. As I said, it looks like it has the most effort put into it imo.
