With yours,
PancakeSamarai, I believe you are on a splendid path with C4Ds. The background is not drowned in color and a mild sense of depth is established. I spot a hint of depth here and there. I must say,though, that the canvas size and SSB logo are much too large, causing poor Princess Peach to shrink. It would be ideal to place the focus on the render. An easy way to do this is with cropping. In MS Paint, I cropped it down to
a more suitable size. I hope you don't mind.
Have to go with
Atticus on this one. You did a really nice job with depth, lighting, and effects. As Erebea brought up, there is strong "story-telling" with the illusion of dust, sparks, and the afterimage of Fox, reminiscent of said character's Side-Special. The text has also been placed in a pleasing, inconspicuous manner. My only complaint is that the color range is a little too large. I think there needs to be more emphasis on the red to blend the oranges and browns. That should make the complementary green on Foxes pants and eyes really pop and the cyan on his, umm, doohickey to stand out. Maybe a gradient map with a dark/desaturated red-light/saturated grean on saome layer effect would help? Other than that, I have no qualms.
The concept is pretty cool,
Terminus, but I can't say much else about it. You managed to form a symmetrical composition, which can be fairly tricky, even digitally.
Super Bash Sis? Yes,
Krash4Krash. So much yes. On a more critical note, there isn't really anything going for it other than SBS. I would like to say that it was nice how you made the three girls look in the general direction of the logo, which incorporates a sense of direction.
