[LilleG] Goodbye habbohand entry

[lilleg]

actually, my danish is alot better than my english. I've written a text in the mail for the competition, on danish. i dont think you actually want to read it.

I like it, dont worry these guys obvs arent polite to give good crit, the hand is mostly a 2 tone shade of colour anyways, so thats ok, a little shading and blending could have been used but nothing major, the enlargment is nice, but i think the small people look abit blury? Keep up the good work!

I'm not actually interested in what you sent to Habbo staff in your email but i'd like to see a little more background than the rather vague description of "for farewell habbo hand comp on habbo dk".

Most if not none of us knew the purpose of the competition so you should have probably elucidated what kind of image you were actually aiming to convey.

As for you GreenCrayons. (Also known as 'he who throws constructive criticism back in your face') I don't see you giving good criticism either, you're just aiming to please. "habbos look a bit blurry" no duh; you need to click the image to expand it fully :rolleyes: You also haven't pointed out where "a little shading" and "blending" (elaborate on what you mean by 'blending' please?) is actually needed.

Now then, since I've been accused of giving inadequate criticism I'm going to give you a few things that I think could be improved. Firstly, building on pretty ambiguous point made by GreenCrayons. earlier on that a little shading could be used, I'll tell you where exactly it could be effective - Under the enlarged habbo. You've shaded under the smaller habbos so why not him?

As previously stated by voiceover. it is mostly copy and paste... Well, all but the enlarged Habbo is c+p really, so I'll focus on that. The shoes are rather thin, look 2d and don't really match the legs -they're way too small. Legs are mediocre, nothing really to be said about them; shading is okay. Shorts seem to have one wonky leg which has one side that seems to be stretched (see the left leg) T-shirt is fine, maybe a tad over dithered on the collar but nothing too detrimental. Hat has banding which is a big nono!!! Banding is when pixel clusters 'hug' each other to create visible resolution lowering (see stripes).

Well firstly KYLE, give me 5 times when ive "thrown constructive critism back in someones face" Also, shading needed to be given more on the side of the hand rather than under the enlarged habbo
Im the pixel artist here so meh! :^^

[Kyle]

5 times? lol I don't think you've even made 5 pixel art posts that I've criticised, which in turn brings me to my second point that joining the pixel art group (open to ANYONE) on the forum doesn't make you a 'pixel artist'. The hand does not require any extra shading otherwise it would look thicker than it actually is :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: xxx

- it should have something to do with memories, something i associate with the big hand, it's a scene from '05, where i was chilling with Mummimor and some friends..

So its from 2005 yet one of the habbos is wearing a doctors mask?

lolomg noes.
it's a scene from 05, i've just collected some friends in order to represent the scene

[thorn]

THing is though, if there are little habbos, then there shouldnt be a big habbo unless its like a giant statue...

You could have done your habbo like 'ing like its actually upset that its going.

[Tootish]

That's pretty good is that! Ace detail.
