Aside from the pixel text, i like it.

I just put it on for "putting-on-sake" to be honest, easily changed.

I've just realised your valled Bogrollbloke. Haha.

The render looks pretty cool (I'm guessing you used the dodge tool to add lighting?). But the background is flat in terms of lighting. You have a render with obvious shadows and light spots while your background has no source of light at all. It's a decent background, but it can be better. And, yeah, the text can be fixed. It's fine though.

I'll work on it while I'm up tonight

EDIT: Here's with the lighting on the BG too...

Ooooh, yeah. That looks great. I'd add a bit more of an yellow-orange to the lighting effects so it matches the render. You can do this on Photoshop by going to Filter/Render/Lighting Effects and changing the spotlight colour from white to yellow-orange. Make sure you're only adding the lighting effect on the background layer and not the render's layer. Looks a million times better now

I personally think you should add animation. Like have the 'Bogrollbloke' fade into the sig, then stay 100% opacity and have 'Untouchable' fade into the sig, have 'Bogrollbloke' fade back to 0% opacity, then have 'Untouchable' fade back too. Of course, that's just me, I'm crazy about animations lol. Look at my sig and avatar!
