Surely, this deserves more than a 2.8?
I think it blends well, and although the curved line is a little rough, I like the ships and the alien space walker. Are the ships 3d renders or not? The reflections on the nose and fins are really well painted if it's 2d. My devalued canadian cents worth -- 4
Re: Surely, this deserves more than a 2.8?
thanks ikeivup,
i wasn't expecting a 5, but i really thought it was better than the score it apparently will earn. 8^\ live and learn i guess. the black outlined, blue line [which i ruefullly inherited] was an attempt to replicate what i had seen already in the tiles that were posted. particularly the two mice [one clean and one a bit rough (both cool i thought)]. the nose and wings weren't 3D... i played with colors and gaussian blurred for quite awhile. then added some more highlighting and dodging in another layer. finally i cut out one section i thought worked and copied and pasted and drop shadowed my brains out. way to much work [and time] for a 2.8... and yes, i would like some cheese with my whine haha
