I think I would have preferred a cleaner, crisper, finished look, as seen on Larwick's front leg, rather than the overdone dithering. Yeah, not a fan of the dithering in this case.
Nor am I keen on the majority of the character designs, especially Sedge and Brian. With the exception of the Larwick and Ensellitis character, I find the majority of them to come across slightly unbalanced and poorly structured. I like the stage lighting on the floor, its very effective, but I think it reflects poorly on the figures which just come across as messy due to the dithering, in my opinion. You might just say that I'm feeling bitter about not being included ;) but I thought I'd give my creative comments anyway!

Coloured randomblink, morganne and jalonso:
![]() Thanks for the good crits iSTVAN. Right now it uses 25 colours (24 if you discount the black I will eventually be removing). I think the biggest reason for the over-dithering is because I was worried about keeping colour count low. I'd love it to be crisp and clean too, how many max new colours do you think I should introduce in order to make it smooth and clean? About the character designs, do you think Brian and Sedge would look a bit better if I changed their eyes from being black and 'beady' to having a white part like a normal eye? I know, Brian and Blick look very unbalanced. When I first started this, I had an upper "vanishing point" perspective in mind, with foreshortening upwards. I guess it kind of failed and I think I forgot about it. Although I then thought that the way Brian and Larwick lean in towards sedge, it creates a triangle which produces a dramatic composition, although I guess that failed too because all the other characters are strewn about everywhere. Thanks for pointing those things out, I really need useful crit. like yours. Oh, Souly, I need to know which colours to use for your character but you took down your old avatar! Also, I've been thinking this for a while now; I think I'm going to say that the guy on the rustbug's back is... me. I was thinking about changing this before Shark did his thing, so it's nothing spiteful. Also I have the same hairstyle, so it was inevitable! |

LOL crap, why didn't I catch this? I love that lighting so much.
If you want to add me subtly, stick in one of the pixel monsters that are in my avatar. ![]() Edited by Faktablad - 14 August 2006 at 6:05pm |

Wow.
If I where ever as good as you, I'd make something like this for when I've been here for a year.
Suppose I'd have to get something in the gallery first, though xP

unless you are a regular member/respected member/not forgotten (like skull, istvan,an so on :P) you are not going to be in it, also, its almost finished and like he said he is getting bored of it, so i doubt he is going to do even more work on it by adding a newbie.
skull, start now XD Edited by Ensellitis - 07 September 2006 at 1:29pm |

And I've already got an Idea at the moment, it should also allow me to add as many people as I wish ![]() Back to the subject.. Amazing use of light, the piece looks slightly dramatic.. always making us wait. |
