Flash Art:Realism + Cartoon?

[ActionSick]

Hey NG'ers

In my upcoming project, I had an idea

Mixing art styles (Realism + Cartoon)

See what I mean here
(Click adventure mode)

Basically, the scrolling background would be realistic looking, not really detailed as it shouldn't be as noticeable.. then everything on top of that (Cart, Enemies, weapons effects, etc) will be cartoon-ized

Is this too weird?

If it is normal looking, what other areas would you guys suggest I add realistic art, i was thinking
1) Some menus
2) Some HUD stuff (Inside the towns, a navigation bar on top)
3) The achievement page

Any other suggestions or thoughts?

looks awesome <3

every min or so, there's this edge thing that repeats.

looks good

It looks really nice, but you should find or make a seamless texture because every now and then a straight line appears and ruins everything

Yea i forgot to mention, I quickly put the path together and didn't mention that you would see a seam.. but that'll be gone..

Anyways, what other places do you guys i recommend using realistic art? (read second part of my first post :P)

Should all menu's be realistic looking? i think it would look better than flash art

[Noray]

yes menus looking realistic would be perfect.

So this mixture doesnt look weird to anyone? i thought it would since i have never really seen it
