Entry Deadline: March 3, 2014
FIRST PLACE and PUBLIC FAVOURITE: Leakee - 51/80
- INHAPS' CRITIQUE - 28:
- Idea: 8/10
Technical: 6/10 - It very much looks like the wrestler is oversharpened. The grill pattern overlay makes the background less vibrant and I cannot say that it good, given the substantially more vibrant wrestler.
Typography: 7/10 - It is fairly bulky and looks a bit lo-fi at the sides. I feel that if it were not as big, it would not have to cover the white gloves and thus be in a position of much better contrast.
Execution: 7/10
- KELLY'S CRITIQUE - 23:
- Idea: 6.5/10 - hard to make out the focal points face, but does fit the theme
Technical: 5/10 - no real flow to the piece, or depth in the foreground area
Typography: 6/10 - i like it, but maybe make it a bit smaller so it doesn't end up becoming a potential second focal
.
Execution: 5.5/10
SECOND PLACE: Aezure - 50.5/80
- INHAPS' CRITIQUE - 30:
- Idea: 8/10
Technical: 7.5/10 - The blur on the leg works very well, while the blurred waist-up area looks rather weird, which might be because of the art style. Perhaps, an increasingly and noticeably stronger blur the farther away it is from the focal point might fix that.
Typography: 7/10 - Simple and looks nice but the focus is confusing. The knee is sharp, the elbow is blurred but the text is sharp as well. It would have looked more logical if the text were placed in front of the arm but behind the leg.
Execution: 7.5/10
- KELLY'S CRITIQUE - 20.5:
- Idea: 6.5/10 - fits the theme
Technical: 4/10 - entire piece feels a bit too blurry, but the blending of it is good
Typography: 5/10 - simplistic, but effective. i would have moved it to a different location though, me personally.
Execution: 5/10
THIRD PLACE: Stealth - 48.5/80
- INHAPS' CRITIQUE - 27:
- Idea: 7.5/10
Technical: 6.5/10 - Colours feel somewhat washed out, which might largely be due to the monochromatic nature of it. It does not have an apparent focal point because the background is just so much like the render.
Typography: 6.5/10 - The simple gradient is highly effective in separating it from the background but not so much that it becomes conspicuous.
Execution: 6.5/10 - As a whole, it needs some midtones because most of it consists of extremes, either pitch black or very bright colours.
- KELLY'S CRITIQUE - 21.5:
- Idea: 6.5/10 - fits the theme
Technical: 5/10 - work a bit more on the flow of your piece; the concept is awesome, but there's no flow besides the ball itself
Typography: 4.5/10 - seems you use similar text each time, branch out ^^!
Execution: 5.5/10
Mr_Rockeye - 42.5/80
- INHAPS' CRITIQUE - 22.5:
- Idea: 8/10
Technical: 5.5/10 - It would have better flow if the speedlines were blended with the render, rather than just being placed there.
Typography: 4/10 - The gradient would look better if it followed a more gradual colour scheme, instead of pure white-to-blue. It becomes illegible near the end and that's due to the colour and no separating features.
Execution: 5/10
- KELLY'S CRITIQUE - 20:
- Idea: 6.5/10 - fits the theme
Technical: 5.5/10 - different, but the radical blur really looks odd
Typography: 3/10 - work on the text, hard to read and placed badly
Execution: 5/10

Leakee, at first glance at least, I quite like yours, the colours and contrast especially.

I agree, the render seemed more sharpened and focused in Photoshop. I'll fix that.

Voted for leakee since the background is so inspiring, although the text doesn't really match it's a great signature. I think you've made a signature that could be shown without putting text into it.
