Contest REMIX CONTEST 5 - RESULTS COMING VERY SOON

with a bit of luck I'll post mine in an hour or so

 

Spruce: Absolute awesome detail man. I love how clean it looks. The whole setting is super cool. It's really diverse yet it still works well together. There aren't many things I don't like about the detail except for maybe the one weird looking tree. I really can't complain, this is a proper great track. Only thing that stands in it's way of true greatness is that it's not that filled up with detail and that it's pretty small scaled. Just a bit safe as well I guess with nothing that's truly amazing, like a big setpiece or awesome ride. Good job!

Joel: Brilliant, just brilliant. This might be my favorite track this round. Amazing setpiece, something that I haven't seen before on this site and of such insane quality. I think what keeps it away from the top spot is that it looks kinda plain but I know that it isn't really possible to detail man-made stuff in a way that it looks more impressive. You are really blowing me away recently and are getting towards a spot on my top 5 favorite authors. Everything works so well together. No flaws in sight. Wins my theme challange easily.

Zwinxz: Really immersive track. I really like how many different mountains there are with paths to ride on and how it really feels like you're somewhere far away from society. For me this is just short of a top 3 track as where the other tracks were flawless, yours has some problems for me. It is bigger in scale than the rest but I think it also kinda hurts your track. You really try to fill in everything and I think this track would've worked better with less filling. For example the clouds and mountains look rushed and don't really add to the track. Same goes with what you did to the river at the bottom of the track where you give the idea that there is more to it by sketching the parts closer to the camera. Don't do this, it takes away from your track. Take a look at spruce's entry, he keeps everything close to the rider and tight. Try to keep everything top quality. Anything that isn't will take away from the quality of the overal track. Still a really good entry but that's a great tip for you.

Nitrogeneric: This track is huge! Everything looks really tight. Detail is very nice. I love how you kept the snowman! Like with zwinxz, this lesser detailed parts take away from the track (the buildings on top). Also, this track is really focused on the ride and while it's good it doesn't stand out. Tracks like this need to have an amazing ride to crack the top 3. It lacks flow and it's obstacles are rather bumpy and repetitive.

Endy: Looks like you had a really cool idea and where I can see a great track comming through, it's not finished and rushed. You can probably tell why this track isn't in the top 3. Like others on the list, filling up space detracts from the track. The grey circle around the track makes this track much worse than it has to be and gives it a real wip look. The theme is great and some things look nice but this really needed more work.

Foundations: This track is really all over the place. It has some really nice parts like all the awesome creatures but it also has some really unfinished parts. This track just needed more time.

MayhemMercenary: Man this track. This track is the opposite of what spruce did. It has less quality overal detail and it's sloppier yet it also is much grander in scale and has so much going on. A lot of the detail looks really great and some of it looks a bit worse but it's still overal a really sweet track. The 2d switch with that tunnel doesn't really work that well though and I wouldn't do that in the future if I were you. Still, you are the biggest surprise in this contest and I'm enjoying all your entries.

Amitabh: Cool track. The pattern of the ground detail looks sweet and I like the theme. That drill looks nice as well. What set's this track back is that it's focus is too much on that patern of the ground detail. If that wasn't there the track would be really boring. Try to focus on drawing parts of a landscape, like rocks, geisers, lavafalls, whatever!

Jrayge: Dinosaurs are great! Too bad they're pretty much the only thing going on in this track. If it also had detail in the nature of it, like trees, rocks, stuff like that, this track would've been higher!

E12: Really weird track yet strangely cool. I like how close it is to the original yet how it's also totally different. Mixing 3d buildings with 2d builings is a no though. If your detail was better it would've been higher, keep working on it!

Gr611: This track is cool yet it's a bit quantity over quality. Focus on making everything that's part of the track great quality, instead of having a detailed start and then no detail after it. It's also not much like the original?

Andrew: The city part is cool but it's not really adding to or changing much from the original. With more work into it it would've been higher.

Zeke15: unfinished and the wrong track, still could've been something.

Track under this point were just really unfinished and I don't think they benifit from feedback. If you enter something more finished I'd love to review it for round 3.
