Ccc gets my vote. I have a problem or two with the other shots in one way or another, regardless of how greatly set up they are. I thought I should actually REALLY start critiquing shots, instead of saying they all look great.
Radien - A very nice custom bridge indeed, along with the great rocks.
Thing is, there is too much brown for my liking (I know it's a mountain shot, but this is just me). As for improvements on the shot, I see none needing to be made, but mountain shots aren't my cup of tea... not to mention too much of one color.
Ccc - The best shot of them all, IMHO. They colors are very nice, and they are perfect on the eyes. The shot has action as well, and even a shadow to go over from the cliff below. Good job.
NoeL - Incredible tiles as always
, but my problem with this shot is the great amount of blue here. It's just the fact of so much blue here, similar to the great amount of brown in Radien's shot.
LinktheMaster - The shot is set up well, but the fact that everything is dark and the sprites are not can be bothersome.
Happyman - It's a joke, no need to talk about this.
Nick - Definetely the greatest caption of every screenshot in this week.
The screen itself is overall good, but now it's really one of those times, where you just say to yourself, "I can't choose this as the winning shot.".
Hero Link - My problem with it is the same as LTM's. The border of the dungeon wall at the left... it just runs into the rocks.
The smallest things, can be the most horrible. If anything, this would be my third place vote, as I like dungeon/ow mixes.
IaN - This shot is very well made. An excellent custom subscreen, but... the Link. As much as I like LTTP, I always hated the pink hair. Very disturbing. Aside from that, this gets second place from me.
CrystalBlade - Very well set up, but I dislike how the default colors are for the pure set with caves. The colors are what bother me, obviously. :\
FireStorm - Good ol' GB tileset. The shot is nice, and because of the subscreen, that makes up for me beign irritated by all of the green. But, when compared to the other shots with 16 bit ^ tiles (excluding Happyman's
), this didn't get my vote. :\
Well, I seemed to be a lot more picky with shots and such this week, but truthfully, this is how I am. I'm a very picky person, just one small thing could ruin something.
But I'd have to honestly say, this is one of the best SOTW's I've seen (The shots in this case).
