My mediocre tank got darker more defined lines. I decided I wanted to keep that sketch feel to the tank. Thank you to EVERYBODY who gave their imput about my work.

JKA, if you don't have any problems with this, I'd like to submit this version.

fireshade, what you could do was remake the tank with the theme of the explosion, but use a solid shape and darker colors....

ah... alright. I like the "doodle" feel of the tank it gives it that sketch book feel. I think ill end up just cleaning up that tank and be done with it.

At first i thought im gonna have a problem figuring out how to control the opacity of the grass and stream but thank you layer duplication :D. I was wondering if you meant to see some of the line a little on the grass and stream part of the background.

That is coming along really well. Keep doing what your doing and I'm sure that will be great when its done.

WIP

working on that as we speak ;)

WIP
So a lot of people were saying the tank could be a little different in this piece. I tried several different things and trying to stick with my images goal. The goal is to show that newgrounds (the tank) is exploding with artistic energy. But because the things I did didn't really mae that impression, i decided to stick with the original tank but add some lighting and other effects so it feels more at home with this piece.

I want your imput! What do you think? Does anything in your opinion need to be different?

>fireshade: I don't even think I can decline this. . . its so damn epic, just go with your own judgement and style for the tank, it's up to you what you want to do with it. I look forward to see what you do with it ;)

Thank you. I appreciate you saying that. I'm going to try somethings and I will get back to you with what I have come with. For now I will just put that first one as a WIP.

For the transparency...yes, so you can see the lines going through helped.....you did a really go job with drawing the tank and tankman, but if you cut and pasted it...i would change it, the voting squad accepting the art will tell you the same thing and than they will make you do it to their specs until they like it enough to accept....again, only my opinion---i still like the piece though.

Hey right on, thanks for your imput it really helps. I guess I got so caught up with how the explosion looks that i forgot the tank was just a clipart. Back to the drawing board.

Do you (or anyone else) have any suggestions for the style of the tank?

That's epicly explosive. I guess my critique is more like a question "I wonder what would look better? Tankman on top of notepad or tankman opacity turn into a notepad?". I think the explosion look great as it is.

Like so?
