Reapoerz: IMO less contrast to the background, the unit is unnoticable.

I like it, but I agree in regards to the contrast issue. Flipping the mountain so that the snow-capped side is to the left of the soldier's face would help, to start.
You could also change the mountain, starting at the GI's shoulders or so. The snow details suddenly stop and it becomes a tiny bit darker- I'd fix that.
The sky could also benefit from a little color variation. Perhaps slightly darker near the top, or lighter closer to the mountains? Nothing too dramatic. _________________ YR modder/artist, DOOM mapper, aka evanb90

I still think either background should be desaturated heavily either add a contour to make the unit more visible, the Slingshot seems good but kinda small.
OTOH I haven't looked at RA2 styled cameos for a long time now and I axed the text area for more visibility for the content instead so I might be very wrong on this. _________________ "If you didn't get angry and mad and frustrated, that means you don't care about the end result, and are doing something wrong." - Greg Kroah-Hartman

Which one that should be desaturated? The Demo Truck?

Your cameos weren't too bad after all, GD, and it makes your mod has a unique thing that might lure people to track your mod. _________________

I missed the Demo Truck for some reason - that one is okay at visibility it's just that the voxel itself seems squashed. Slingshot and GI are what I thought of.
Also, AS cameo style just follows the overall visual theme. People either love it or hate it, I dun mind. As a bright mind said it once, AS runs on Hungarian acid... well, it just shows. _________________ "If you didn't get angry and mad and frustrated, that means you don't care about the end result, and are doing something wrong." - Greg Kroah-Hartman

Yeah about the Demo Truck. The Slingshot is lack of contrast and the GI is excess of contrast, aren't they?

Too much white. I have noticed that some of your cameos have some sort of a white fog/bluring. For me the cameo must be as clear/clean as possible to show the unit.

I'll be honest, I liked the simpler background of the first one.
Have to agree with Pillbox though, re:clarity. Details should be a bit...sharper and cleaner. _________________ YR modder/artist, DOOM mapper, aka evanb90

The MCV looks like if someone accidentally poured too much bleach to the washing machine.
The Power Plant is just bad, with the background having enough details to be noticable how it's just a random photo. _________________ "If you didn't get angry and mad and frustrated, that means you don't care about the end result, and are doing something wrong." - Greg Kroah-Hartman

I agree with the MCV, but i didn't agree for Power Plant's background. :/ I made the background by myself. Still need to exercise more for making backgrounds _________________

Neat. I like that, but the sky should be a bit brighter to fit with the Allied theme. _________________ KGR | AT

The bottom of the voxel is sightly blurry, and i noticed in the last 2 years you were kinda bad like me in the past. _________________ If you are a MetalHead (Heavy Metal Fan) and don't want to be a metalhead, Just remove your metal ball from your head. �:p .
