cc'000 - cc'000 gfx compo review.

cc'000 gfx compo review



  (C) 2ooo Gas 1913


  Very seamless and consistent
view spektrumista, known to many
to work on odd-numbered
Insanity, as well as an excellent artist
which I think has surprised us
works for Phat0 'Final Shoque (too
I know;) I already surprised).


  (C) 2ooo Surv! V0r


  It will still be a few short
months and the level of performance graphics
work on the Spectrum will be virtually
same. I'm talking about the technical
side of this issue. Texturing -
the most promising and practical of
all methods, allowing for a short
time to master the skills quite tolerable
in drawing. Taking into account that
new versions of graphical editors and
other means of setting pixels
significantly added to their number and weight,
should expect a new wave spike
Activity Spectrum of Artists.
Wait.


  Temporary absence of the strongest
copy the artist on stage sends a
chances of the others who want to make
compete in the schedule and
show their skills.


  But what showed last CC'000?
Mixing two categories of graphics and copy
no copy. No, it's not bad, even explicit
net is not, and is difficult to call.
Of course, in a situation where
presents 44 graphic works
hard to say - whether it would be
hold exactly two compo, as it was
written in the rules or act otherwise.
However, judging by the fact that
Organizers actually threw the whole
the process of turning into reality their
immediate responsibility on the shoulders of
present, we can not say
that this is somehow reflected in the general
impression of what he saw.


  In comparison with the previous year level
Works of this season he almost
in no way inferior.


  For general objectivity 'who is where?'
Perhaps it is holding the copy and no
copy compos separately from each other
has placed to everything in its place. Ie
the end result we have seen yet
say Paracels'a and DiVER'a the first
places in the copy compo, but Pheel'a and ZSV
respectively, no copy. Yes, because in my
think it would be fairer. But even
the absence of any material
support the winners (no
diploma) does not impact on
outcome, because the sympathy of the public there is little
replace. And to get what
happened.


  Among the 44 works is not much, but they were
pretty mediocre in their
quality and dubious in its
origin. Let's all remain
on the conscience of the organizers, as well as those
authors, who were labeled to see themselves
top three, even in the copy. By Diver'u and PLS
this statement does not apply,
because only a cursory comparison of their
copy work with the rest of the same copy works
shows the real picture of the benefits
Two of these artists over all
others.


  As far as no copy, then there
quite an interesting situation. The first
place by a large margin goes to
hitherto unknown artist from ZSV
CTL. Previously, I have not seen his work,
I hope - to be congratulated on the successful
debut, especially on such a large and
important event in the life of the stage, as
Chaos Constructions.


  If we evaluate the overall situation in the gfx
scene taking into account the results
CC'000, then emerges as follows.


  The emergence of young and talented staff
not far away, and in fact already underway
generational change. Stereotype story
line, when 'just a person looks at
you point-blank screen 'has clearly not
surprises voting. Punching
works, hope has not been noticed, and
Why, what could be their lobbying
if you want to vote for a story, rather than
a mediocre person of his
long-familiar with b / w work.


  Despite the fact that until CC'000 were
heard widespread calls for
by new and original works
there is some presence of the past.
For example, the work 'SHADOW.C' I know
since 1997, when she
distributed widely with a
multiple versions of the screen
optimizer'ov and the presence of Conversion
kaky without any trace of dorisovki to 'crazy'
rather spoils the overall impression. Ie
once again promised to all, and scored
in rulesa preselect itself has not passed
pre-selection.


  I will try now to assess the performance
included in the top five:

[...] - CC '000 ZX GFX Compo Top Five-
1. -F1-ZSV Soft / MIU / CTL 703 1913
2. Havin 'Fun Paracels/EI572 6
3. Two Sights PheeL / Antares 545 1928
4. New skin DiVER/4d 539 1919
5. Wake up! DEADIE / HS / CPU 473 31

[...] -------------------------------

  The fifth result is awarded fairly
ideological pleasant story.
Generally, Deadie with his two works
was in the top ten. Political
slogans in the style of 'Kosovo' by Copper Feet
could also be at a height
because of their relevance today
obvious.


  Featured 19th out of 44, the latter
known to date, work
DiVER'a really worth it to
be among the leaders. Like I said,
passed to copy compo, DiVER once
again on this occasion could be the first and
there ... but if not, then the court is not. I want to
wish DiVER'u early return
of the country's tarpaulin seven-league boots,
everyone to enjoy again
quality of his work. Talk about
that 'it is necessary for us to copy the work or not
Need 'feel useless, because
all the same not in places of happiness, but in this
too. The fact that decent and very
nice no copy works almost none
does not. Among the recognized authors
long and include Pheel, Gas and 13 and
Paracels, but where are the rest?


  Need to develop the direction of copy, but
so as not to expose coarse conversion, and
brought to their logical and semantic
finish. Perhaps this is the only step
to learn to draw on their own,
for those who wants it. After all, when
learn to draw in art school -
make rubbings. So here, too. I have not seen yet
a single copy of at least close to
DiVER'a level of those who said that
copy to do fairly easily, and already they no
copy alone. The only exception
is perhaps the Demiurge Ash, who
recently strongly reduced its
Activity on the spectrum scene.


  Pheel'a work can be called
continuation of his Dream. Color
modulations of brightness and a relatively high
level of performance - it's all good.
Only now the bird is on the front
plan. Backlog from the second result
this piccy is almost minimal. In
Together, the second and third give
a clear picture of what would be
endeavor.


  I do not know ... Oh why, but apparently
women's faces in different variations all
long enough to be looking at us with a
works included in the top three. Explanation
Perhaps this one - on the party as
rule and is always much
more merry men than
vice versa, and artists of the same sex
much more ... :) So, if DiVER
this time depicted a girl's face, he
could and oust its top three
majestic presence. :)


  That's really the first place, perhaps, his
kind sensantsiya! The plot is quite simple,
and all the same woman's face! Our artists
know what to draw. How to
Millennium'2000 - enough even been
does not represent Jorg'u of Selected Realms
face, but her shoe as it gets
clear - girl 4eva and third place
provided. Now, however, militant
Madame a la 5-th Element proves to us
all of its superiority over other
on CC'000 grenade F1.


  The next time it is possible that
there will be more mundane subjects: a lady
milking a cow, Alyonushka the water in search of
Ivanushki brother, and finally - the girl with
bandana and a paddle!


  Interesting observation, is not it, if
even considering that I too artist? =:)
