Hey, how about you keep the topic in mind, not me. Alright? He asked for critique, I gave it to him... don't come down on me.

He didn't? I... Don't even think he was talking to you, specifically?

I know you were the one that talked about proportions but that wasn't really meant to be aimed at you, or anyone in particular. I just wanted to say it looks good and that I wouldn't let the fact that other games keep proportion deter him. Looking at the comment now, I'm referring to him in third person as if I'm not directing my comment to him at all but to someone else, so I see why you thought I was getting up you. Don't look too far into it though, your criticisms are just as valid as the next guy's.

Updated with some anti-tank turrets.
They got 23 cannon directions. Pain in the ass..
Hmm, maybe a tad bright. Can't get to redo it right now

Too bad you can't update the first post in a thread..

If possible, use a bit of alpha blending on the edges so it actually looks like the base and machines are placed on the grass. The base looks a bit too seperated from the grass/ground now.

I totally and wholeheartedly agree with Rick and axel.

Proportions = nothing, simply nothing

Gameplay = everything

Your graphics as they are now = more than enough

... this should give you an idea where to concentrate. Don't focus on tiny details that attract other game developers aiming to perfectionism... focus on those things that really matter in the viewpoint of the average player.

First i must say... HOlY- WOW! Those look incredible. But, like everyone else, i have a bit of criticism. They should just be a bit darker on the bottom. And the base of the turrets, like da vince said, should be blended in with the terrain their on. But, as they look right now, Holy- wow.

(Like some would say though, like i'm an expert at spriting . Its just my opinion, thats all.)

 
All platforming problems can be mostly solved here:

These are very excellent examples by other people and are very informative.

Those turrets are awesome! They look like they'll wreak havoc on my tanks. The alpha shading of the base of each structure is a good idea, they do look a little seperated from the landscape. Still beautiful though!
