It's been way too long since I'd made anything fake-y, and when the contest came around, I was all up for entering. I had this entry ready to enter, but I was away from the net for a while when I tried to enter it, so it ended up not getting in.

I like this idea a whole lot better then what is on the game. It's stupid how Jax has super powers to turn to a giant and squashes you. But this idea of yours is more realistic. Great job, Stoney. I like this fake a lot. I wish you would've gotten the time to enter it.

Holy crap, I love this idea. On top of that, it's executed very well. The background however is a nice idea, but not totally fully realized [and the barrels kind of kill the perspective, unless their small mini-barrels wink ). I think it could be developed upon.

The blood is true to the games for the most part. I do like the little tough of the blood on Jax's boot. My only grip is that some of the crushed skull on the ground and the remainder of the skull left on the body could use more a little more detail and depth. Anal? Nope. smile

Another thing would be I would have loved if you touched up the sprites from their original stock form a little more. Like a deeper detail to them and perhaps even a little smoother. But, seeing as you wanted a game type feel, I don't really hold not touching them up against you. *Edit*: I just noticed that Jax's "utility belt" seems to be too large, or possibly even has 2 instead of just one, not really too noticeable, just a nitpick I guess.

All in all, this is a very good fake and it is a shame it was not able to make it into the contest.

Thank you, THANK YOU for using the much better looking MK2 Jax sprite. I hate his MK3 look. I like the new stage idea, however, the red shade from the subway doesn't match too well with the rest of the BG. just my opinion at least... i'd recolor the subway's part or at least give a good reason as to why that part of the arena is so much more light up with red. (sure, I can see the other part of the BG was colored with red a bit, it doesn't fit too well).

The lifebars and text and all that look nice and crisp, true to the MK3 feel.

The fatalit itself is great. I love the smashed head splatters and what not, and I like the trail of blood or whatever left on jax's shoe. Beautiful fake with very nice image quality.

4.5/5
