minute reviews - february 1999
black maiden 19:
The hirez departments isn't very big, but still worth reviewing.
The "kolor" logo is a typical demoscene logo,
but I don't understand why Pandur would released a "not
really finished" logo. The rest of the pack is of average
quality with photomanips and abstract work. The quality
is really good, but the art just isn't very intriguing.
score: 5
circe 7:
This hirez department isn't big very either. While arl-chuc.jpg
is pretty mediocre, I like the touch with the cracks in
the girls face. Most photomanips seem consist of low-quality
photos, which isn't very good. It isn't hard to get hold
of free stockphoto of good quality. Otherwise there seem
to be some potential in this group, and they might develope
a good hirez department.
score: 4
ic exposure 1:
This new group is not very good. All pics are saved in very
low quality for some reason. The photomanips are very simply
done, and most work are just filters. They aren't very provocative
either, as they say in the info file. Now, for some reason
they've chosen the abbreviation ICE, which isn't unlike
the more known group iCE. Isn't it awkward?

noir 9901:
This pack was released last month but we review it anyway.
It's a really average artpack. Most pics aren't bad, they
just need some more touching up and refining, for example
blurry edges etc. The rendered work isn't very impressive.
The objects look dead and "flat". They need a
lot more lighting and texturing. There's also a lot of skteches,
which aren't particularly good, and aren't really finished
pics. The HTML presentation was pretty nice, and a good
idea.
score: 5
