Judge TheMajor's Comments:

Question 1.How well are the anime and the Artistic Movement combined with each other? For it's time Cowboy Bebop was a revolutionary anime so a very bold style like this suits it very well. [cut the score]

Question 2.What score do you think this wall deserves on the technical side? Technically this was not a difficult wall from what I can tell. Probably the hardest part was Spike. Which that small can be rather frustrating and difficult to maintain high quality especially with this style. [cut the score]

Question 3. Overall, how would you rate this wall as a whole? I would have to rate this wall as a [cut the score]

Question 1.How well are the anime and the Artistic Movement combined with each other? It's cute and it mimics the artistic movement, but the stashes should have been don in the same line like design that covers both the characters & the bg to make this complete... It would have had that real turn of the century poster feel. [cut the score]

Question 2.What score do you think this wall deserves on the technical side? Technically all that see and understand is that this is a "SCAN CUTOUT" which is rather disappointing. [cut the score] Not just because because it's a cut out but because it is now limited by the original scan forever. If it had been vectored completely then it could have been made at a larger size to begin with, creating an overall better resolution and quality wall. And in my personal opinion generated a much higher ranking than an A.

Question 3. Overall, how would you rate this wall as a whole? As a whole this wall is more or less about a [cut the score]. There is just so much untapped potential for this wall and it's very disappointing when there is a good idea and bad execution. and then to hide the scan behind a line pattern it's heartbreaking.

Question 1.How well are the anime and the Artistic Movement combined with each other? I'm not sure what movement this is from but I like the concept. At first it looks as if the two characters are coming out as part of the background. But look closer and they are obviously not. There are so many little optical illusions at work here it's hard to keep track. But the resulting effect is excellent composition and over all flow through the artwork. Keeping the eye of the audience moving is very difficult thing to do. [cut the score]

Question 2.What score do you think this wall deserves on the technical side? What score do you think this wall deserves on the technical side? LIke I said in my description above technically this wall has a very high difficulty level. Not only in the details but in how many and the variations of each. ANd vectoring each takes patience and dedication beyond measure. [cut the score]

Question 3. Overall, how would you rate this wall as a whole? I have to say this is a very pleasing wall and there is not much more i can say on the matter... [cut the score]
