ShadowStrike
ShadowStrike's render is very practical for signatures and web graphics (i.e. banners). It is, however, too small to be used in a wallpaper. It's a very nice cut, the attention to detail is great! Well... it looks sort of chopped up in places but it's pretty good.

Overall I must change my vote from Morpheus to ShadowStrike. Although Morpheus did a better job at rendering than ShadowStrike, ShadowStrike's render had everything nicely packaged Good job!

Happy New Year!

ORIGINAL MESSAGE:
-----------------------------------
eh, where's the other render? i'll vote for Morpheus anyway, it's an excellent cut, not very useful however, but it's large and great for web graphics. nice job!

The other guy:

i may wait to vote here again, but until this guy's render comes up then i will vote for Morpheus!

Happy New Year!

Morpheus: Its a good cut but a bad render choice because that render has been done so many times before. Its useable atleast one part of it. Overall its a pretty good cut and may I ask if you recreated the light saber?

@Shadow Strike: Well its ok not that great. If memory serves me right the original was bigger and more vibrant its a bit choppy in some places.

Morpheus gets my vote for obvious reasons.

 

Kazuya agreed on me being a temporary judge.

Everything is explained from my point of view, so If I am referring to right or left-side, it will be our right or left.

Morpheus

1st thought
- looks pretty clean

Mistakes
- left background on the hood of the left guy
- the renderer logo merges with the render, which makes it less usable
- outline around the heads of the front and the right guy
- left background on the left elbow of the front guy

Positive
- good work around the lightsabers

Negative
- Size is too much screenfilling, only the front guy is usable


Shadowstrike:

1st thought
- weird picture

Mistakes
- the whole thing looks odd, I can’t judge on missed parts, cuz the original isn’t there and the render has no obvious pattern.

Positive
- that you have the balls to enter with this picture

Negative
- picture is too small
- picture has no obvious pattern, which makes it unusable


My vote goes to Morpheus, for having a better picture, better cut and better size

if you a better explanation containing pictures, please pm me, and add link to original, render and my own comment.

 

This one is pretty easy imo.

Shadowstrike: Good render, but whats up with the elbow and parts of the hand? It's usable in sigs, and I haven't seen it rendered before. Nice job.

Morpheus: It's alright. Not sure wether its useable in sigs. overall nice cut.

Morpheus:

It;s real hard to say how hard this render was to cut becasue we can't see the original. It's a ok size, It's a very clean smooth cut. Not that usable in sig's thought

Shadow Strike:

It's hard once again to say how hard it was to render because on the missing original, nice size. Look's preatty clean cut to me, but !! i find it just looks a bit weird looking because on the missing chair. And i dont think it would looks nice in a gfx for that reason !!

My vote goes to !!

Morpheus

 

they're overall well cut renders, but i cannot judge difficulty because of the lack of an original image to each of them.

Morpheus : a well cut render, great quality and a nice size to use for sigs or banners and maybe even a wallpapper.

Shadow Strike : the render is cut well but the stock is not of a very good quality. The render size allows it to be used in sigs or banners.

Morpheus gets my vote because his render is of a higer quality and much more usable then the other, very nice job both of you.

 

Morpheus gmv, much nicer cut imo, other guys render is bad quality too

 

Morpheus

Difficulty: 8/10 2 points just for the laser glows.
How unique the render is: 4/10 Been done many times.
Usability: 7/10 may be annoying to use all three guys, but cant still easily be done.
How Well The Image Has Been Cut: 9.5/10 Very smooth, nice glows.
Size: 8/10 Good size, could be made smaller to look better.

Shadowstrike

Difficulty: 7/10 not too hard.
How unique the render is: 7/10 its very unique without the chair, but in a bad way.
Usability: 6/10 you can use it, but the render is just too weird w/o the chair.
How Well The Image Has Been Cut: 7/10 its ok, but i see spots.
Size: Pretty small, cant be resized very far.

 

Morpheus GMV.

Overall, both are done exceptionally well. Deciding factor is usability. Though I wouldn't use either of them in a sig, Morpheus' choice has more vibrant colors, and a smoother flow to it. Shadowstrike's is a bit too dark and edgy for my taste.

Nice work to both of you.

 

Winner - Morpheus
