In Entry 1, I'm not fond of the text or for rendering on Gohan. Though, I must say I really do like rawness of the background, however I believe it's a little over done and should be toned down in the sense of less of it.
The cutting on the render in Entry 2 is much better; however there is no integration between the image and background what so ever . The left shoulder looks out of place due to the lack of blending, not to mention the background is quite blurry along with the text.
I'm with Medz here; something looks off about Entry 2. I'm going to go as far to claim that the participant who entered Entry 2 didn't create the background or the text for their sig. It looks as if they simply enlarged a premade/stolen background and text and placed Ichigo on it.
I'm voting Entry 1.
