An Apocalyptic Showcase

**apokolypz** · 11-11-2011

Thank you In2, for the banner

Who am I?

My name is Tyler. I am 15 years old and I've been using photoshop roughly a little less than a year. I've been in a few shops here on the site before they closed and people really liked my work so I decided to bust out my artwork here. Music plays a big role in my life, all kinds but my heart lies in metalcore haha. Getting into drums. I'm also a track star at my school, usually run distance. Been a gamer since I was like 6. My first video game was Spyro the Dragon and Crash Bandicoot

How can you give me a Request?

The shop I am in currently is Deja View Sigs, so come check out the shop and see the other member's work as well. (Past shops - New Generation Sigs, Industry of Sigs, Gimp Gurus)

Signatures

Old Stuff (This is some of the work I did when I first started Photoshop)

Yeah I know what you're thinking, not that good (yes yes

)

Getting a Style (You'll see what I mean, a while ago a I got the hang of a style, although it was different from a lot of artists I saw on the site, I've managed to get rid of this style from however long I used it.)

Moving Forward (After moving away from that style, I sort of got lost. I just made sigs for requests, didn't really know what to do or if I was improving or not.)

I'm only showing a few of those last ones, because I have so many using the same style, and I think they are not good.

Getting a Little Better (Still, I was getting kind of tired of making sigs, not much influence, help, or a style really, but they are a tad improved.)

Break (I stopped making sigs for a while, I was too busy and I thought it the "spark" just wasn't there."

Sort of Recent (Signatures I made when I came back to photoshop)

Up to Now (These are decently recent)

New Ones (up to most recent)

More Signatures to Come soon

I've always loved your work Apok. You've been an outstanding artist since you came onto the scene. I find your music themed sigs some of your best work. I had never seen this one before and I've always wanted one like this.

I'll be coming to request something from you right now.

It's a very nice collection. However, I think some of them aren't as good as others. Some of them have Floating Head Syndrome, which you might want to try and avoid (this is seen most in the last Zombie sig).

While there are some nice gems in your collection, I think your best is the sig of the Flash. Though that's just my opinion. Still, it's a nice collection

Well the collection part is mixed, meaning some of my "best work" may be in one area, but some of my "okay" works may be mixed with the others. I'm a little confused by what you mean, floating head syndrome? Thanks for the feedback though

Thank you everyone else too

Floating Head Syndrome is where all you can see in the signature...is the head. It's one thing I've learned which is a big no-no, and that should try to be avoided at all times.
