Gashin: Fantastic as usual.
Mighty: Like the bubbles.
Revfan: I understand the need for the snow, but it obscures the shot in this case.
Radien: Cool representation of the Fortress from OoT....maybe a tad bit more color, but I love the guards.

I vote for Radien just to spread the love a bit.

I'd have to say Gashin.

Mighty's is nice but it's nothing SOTW quality, that doesn't mean that I don't want the tileset.
Radien gets 2nd place.
Revfan get's last. Those mountain tiles don't right next to those lava falls and the grass is dull.

That is not snow. @_@
That's ash from the volcano, hence the lava?

Gashin gets my vote. The palette is really eye-pleasing and you just can't beat those palm trees. I also like Mighty Darknut's submission, the outer wall structures in his screenshot give it an enigmatic quality.

and Mighty Darknut have you given thought to using tiles that arnt from a metriod game for a metriod quest?
i think gradius tiles could make your quest look more original

Well, I am using quite a bit of tiles from BS Zelda and the gameboy Zeldas, plus a bit of custom tiles.

I'm not really a gamer, so I don't know what kind of graphics are out there that I could use. I'll take a look at some Gradius tiles though; thanks for the suggestion.

Gashin's screen seems to have the most going on, and looks like it was the biggest effort.  It is tough to top all of that.  I question the color pattern on the bridge, but then again I am not sure what I am trying to say.

here's a better shot of the bridge, and even some incomplete Zoras!

I like the pattern on the bridge; it makes it more interesting.

Awesome Zolas, by the way. XD

I really love the edited walls used in Radien's shot.

But Gashin's palm trees are da bomb! I vote Gashin.

Oops....makes more sense now. icon_razz.gif

That's actually an old sprite that I was using for the wand. I've edited it so the grey ends are bigger and lighter.

Gashin:
Awesome as usual. However, I can't help but notice you like black outlines, which IMO looks better. My poiny is, maybe you should add a black outline in with those path tiles some where. They do kinda clash. Either that are make them darker.

Mighty Darknut:
This is also a splendid shot. But, I don't really like the GBC lava... I never really did. I was always more of a fan of the MM or TMC style "32x32" gradient lava. Also, I agree with Radien. There should be more things strewn about the room.

Radien:
This shot has a very nice layout, but the colors are very bland. I can also see that you went back to the small Serenia tiles. I suggest making the fortress a more redish, or goldish color palettes permitting of course.

RevFan9:
Nice layout. I have nothing against this shot, but what is up with that purpleish goo? Is is supposed to be lava?

I null'd.

Aww, you don't like the Mystic Land lava Rex?
I personally love the colors, despite the fact that it's fire-colored rather than lava-colored. Nevertheless, Prince did an excellent job editing the aLttP (not GBC icon_razz.gif ) lava, so that's what I'm using.

I honestly think you should change the pallette, Revfan.
you should make the lava a bit more... fiery. And try making the ash a bit grayer.

Mighty Darknut, you know alot more than me about Metroid, anyone for that fact knows more than me.
But I did a google search for the lava tiles and found a picture of the 3d moddeled metroud prime.
I think this is the name. @_@

Compare yours and theirs, why don't you try using Rex's lava tiles: http://purezc.com/in...ge=tiles&id=446
or the DoR tilesets lava by Radien?
