ahh me and my random avatars. I think he's Ran from Weiss Kruz. This is what one of my friends said; I have no idea because I've never seen the show and haven't the first idea what it's about XD
You and your avatars! Looks good, actually! thought it was female at first glance though...>_o though, I would've liked like something bright into it!
@alchemydude90: Dude, your work is progressing, but remember to use less brightness, brightness is quite a very good factor, but over-using it doesn't look good, but more like blinding! I know you're still learning lots and so am I, but try making your own backgrounds, like with brushes and playing with all the tools and effects around and you'll see something very original and cool will come out with time!
Also, I think your signature are too big, making them a little smaller, makes them have a better look too.
Try looking at other people's work so you can match better backgrounds and renders, but not using the same colors, try making things stand out, like in the Roy signature, it's waaay too dark, though it "matches" the render, it's not suppose to be the same color. And in the Edward and Alphone signature, it really doesn't match at all, and try using different fonts, as Blitzy commented before, dafont.com has lots of them!

Just keep working hard and keep practicing! ;P Good luck! And hope to see more of your signature here!
@Blitzy: 
You're quite a good substitute! Didn't know you could be that sadistic...*shivers*

Keep the sadism up!
