january, 2008
at the end of September 2007 newart, with a share of pathos,
announced beginning of the third-to virtual graphics and musics
competition antique toy 2007. I, like many others, took this
the news with enthusiasm - 2 years party had found new life
introducing a new reason to do something on the Spectrum, but
still compete with this "something".
extremely surprised by the presence of only one graphics
competition, and this in the era of the already fading gfx
scene. By the way speaking, my questions about the reasons for
this, newart nothing concrete to explain not could, leaving the
phrase in the spirit of "why do another contest, if nobody do
nothing. "
the overall level of work, I think, was about on par with
previous antique toy, 2005, that, in general it is not
surprising. of really strong artists who participated in this
time, can be noted prof/4d.
So, here they are - interesting and different ...
09th place, gey scene alive! by sg / milytia, 390 pts
sg brother did still handmade work, but the effort,
alas, the match result obtained. fan-idea pictures
(Who knows what the essence - he will understand) could not win
smallish quality. for example, the strong work of this
angle can be performed by hand vsponit cacique - the idea there
was, but the viewing experience was very positive.
the author does not wish to be lazy, he can really do
great job!
08th place, fear by z00m/total computer gang, 401 pts
I, frankly, very surprised to learn that this work does not
moran'a and western musician z00m! Well, for me, very
interesting start - a memorable style and semantic load -
that given a little graphic works in principle.
lowest point, I think, primarily due to the low
spectacle - an effort to understand the work end up in a glance
99% complete failure, but it's longer enough reason (according
to many) to put a low score.
07th place, up to god by outshined / cyberpunks unity, 432 pts
miguel's back! only in seventh place, smallish, in my opinion.
work deserves to get into the top five.
Again, we have to be notorious psychology of voting -
on the screen there are no people or persons or something in
that spirit, the work is not deserves a high place.
to the interpretation of such works for people yet to be
reached, and yet, my respect, miguel! really interesting
picture.
06th place, antique sex toy by k-0s/ra/papaya dezign, 453 pts
Western artist k-0s are not surprised, unfortunately. level
remained the same as the previous work on forever eight (love
lust sex).
facial contours are drawn quite decently, but the rendering
technique shadows and glare on his face is definitely
suffering. and if the upper arm More or less looks, the lower
leaves yellow sensation porridge. however, an attempt to draw
the hair too far left not the best impression.
the author should work on technique - there are many works
which can be taken as an example. importantly - do not be lazy.
05th place, astro by antipod, 471 pts
work, which caused long discussion between me and puls'om.
it would seem - all technically simple and even a little
childish, but there is something mysterious in the work, such
as the time from the same childhood, perhaps even the cartoons
of those times - the Soviet cartoon about the cosmos.
Bravo, antipod, just take off my hat!
04th place, monster by kravtsov maksim / madmax, 520 pts
very mixed feelings arose after watching this
work. like, and interestingly, in the spirit of the idea, but
somehow unfinished look, and sometimes even looks like a
conversion.
in general, not hooked, do not even know it's good or bad.
03rd place, antique love by d0k/raww arse, 547 pts
surprised. work until the pain looks like a conversion, not even
Modified how a little bit.
stupid and uninteresting.
02nd place, omfg by prof/4th dimension, 641 pts
Oh, and here it is really a work of this
artist! By the way speaking, omfg planned to participate in the
chaos constructions, 2007, but on a number of organizational
reasons, and not got on the computer. Well, so much the better,
it is largely decorated antique toy 2007.
rather unconventional genre work, technically made on
fairly high level. lose "our future" in the first place,
In my opinion, due to the spectacle. Well, like people, when
paint is the people, not something else!
however, pROF can better that he has once again proved to
artfield 2007. respect, prof!
01st place, our future by riskej / simbols, 658 pts
I was won for the first time participating in the gfx compo
with the first handmade-serious work. original "our future"
painted critikill.
what to say ... in fact, a very mediocre job
winning a greater extent due to the absence of any
serious work. only strong work "omfg" lost,
allowing me to win.
once again a case where a victory is like, and like it or not.
very sorry that did not have time to take part deadie, diver,
black fox. gfx compo would be much more interesting!
