Thee

Dumbshit appreciate the feedback however my method was completely different than using Nitroblast (can't even get Nitroblast to work). I started off in PS by creating the text, lassoing out various parts of the text to give it that 'Nitroblast' feel, took out a few more pieces with a Marquee tool. Then went to exporting it as an Adobe Illustrator file. Imported it into C4D then began adding every spline to an extrude, once I did that I grabbed each part that wasn't attached to the text and added more depth to it, then centred it. I then duplicated everything and moved the duplicated part back a bit to give me a bit of room, grabbed each part of the text that wasn't split then reduced the depth by around 40%, added a few more clicks to the caps to bring it out more. 

All of what I said could have easily been replicated by using Nitroblast and copy and pasting stuff, however I put in more effort than that. On the point of it being 'plain', that's my forté of graphic design - everybody has their own taste. I'm not always animating my signatures as I prefer still images but I'll certainly take those animation tips on-board. 

As for the textures, I don't add many textures to the model in C4D as I prefer to do all that stuff in PS.

Thanks for the feedback.

Updated the thread with a better version of the signature, thanks for all the feedback.

I was trying a few things out and wanted to make Steel Nogan a new signature, this is the finished product.

Appreciate the kind words, in this case having it kept simple and clean looks the part 

Looks great man! Certainly impressive stuff.

As always, looking forward to seeing what else you produce!

Absolutely love this my man! And always love seeing your work!

Thanks for the kind words, always appreciated brother.

After rocking the same Signature that Dumbshit did for me, I decided it was time for something new. I spent about two hours on this, it's quite simple but I think it fits my colour scheme. 

Any feedback would be appreciated, and if there's enough demand I could re-open my free signature shop, this time featuring 3D text of course.

I love the smoke effect, glad to see you move to Photoshop! Looking forward to seeing what else you produce!

Another design for a fellow ICE member. If anyone is interested for an avatar feel free to hit me up in my forum DMs. 

Great touch on this unique piece of art! I'm digging the extra creativity and congratulations Emozionante for choosing such a talented person!

Your designs are always super aesthetically pleasing, keep up the good work!

Thank you for the kind words friend :)

I've been away from touching graphic design software however now that I'm back playing Alora I'm back making designs too! I previously made an avatar for Loo and he stated he wanted it 'ice' themed, it was 11pm at night and was very tired thus my ability to create a worthy avatar showed. Fast forward to yesterday evening I was fully in the frame of mind to create a unique avatar specifically for him so here it is;

Good to see Eim 40a back on the team! Go all the way buddy!

Great work on this design, I dig the chromatic feel. 

Looking forward to seeing more from you!

Appreciate the effort you've went through to gather the data for us ironmen! Looking forward to the next monster you kill, perhaps Lizardman Shamans?
