    Welcome to the crew Minor. n_n

    Maj - I lurk too much :3

    .Immortal - I like 1 and 3 - the effects are good and the monotone colours suit them well. However, the others don't appeal to me, nor does your LP. Try working more on your lighting, depth, and in some cases, flow. A no for now.

    SkyLine - I quite like your second and third tags, and the fourth is pretty good too. The fifth looks just like a stock (I realise it most likely isn't, but still), and the first is a bit too messy for me. Your LPs are also good, if a bit simple. The second is original, but the render seems to stand out too much...Like there's no blending on it at all.

    Anyway, I've seen your work around the forum, and I like quite a bit of it. I'm undecided right now though - 75/25 to yes for now.

    Yes to both. Though LPs could use work, I don't pay much attention to em.

    Tough call on both. I'm really about 50/50 on .Immortal and about 65/35 leaning towards yes on Skyline. I'll break it down when I get a chance and make up my mind.

    @ .Immortal, I actually like your fourth tag a lot. the first and last seem all too similar. Other than that you do know how to flow nicely, you do have a no from me, but I would really like you to re-apply sometime in the near future, you show great potential.

    @SkyLine, I'm honestly not that fond of your stuff, your first tag is just chaotic and doesn't really have a focal - also just stock + splat brush + random pencil lines, along with editing curves and the basics. second tag just seems like the livetrace filter was used in illy. third tag, same critique as first, panic sig is just an effect render? and last just looks like a stock. sorry but a no from me.

    - Blaze your tags stay hot, no matter how long they cool down! :D (*guess i made you a slogan :P)

    - Minor, welcome to the bunch! :D

    - Immortal, 50/50 on you, i miss variety, but there's nothing really standing out for me...

    - Skyline, 80/20 for you, i'm leaning very much towards a yes, but also understand the reasons stated above by my other crew members!

    - Yarr, i had to write out a drumtab for (fork and knife) by Brand New, yaaaaar, actually quite liked doing it :P

    Don't know if i'm able to be online before christmas again, prolly (A) But for now, merry christmas guys!

    Back to a yes, I like the new ones you posted a lot more. TBH, it is both, sometimes you can just add a gradient map and it will look good but you shouldn't just do it. And thanks Thomas :D How do you right drum tabs anyway? Sounds hard. But I am trying to play drums in a few days :D wish me luck.
