It only seems unfair if the characters your choosing aren't as visually interesting. There may be only so many wrestling characters that have a really cool look to them, but you have just as much freedom as your opponent to make something else.

It's not exactly unfair per se. And we did have the option of doing something non wrestling too. But I'd like to see both competitors having micros from the same section so that they're closer competitively. We could've made a technically perfect Radicalz and it still wouldn't have won (not taking anything away from the Turtles 'cos they look great.) Isn't that why we had a world champion and a non wrestling champion? Just food for thought I guess.

When AC and Hurricane are making there micro's from scratch with poses and weapons and NAILING them my vote is going to go to them. I just thought Malenko and Benoit look a bit plain, you could have done a nice pose or even some titles like you did with your Orton micro.

I don't think that's true at all. There are ways to make normal looking characters pop, MJH for example was very good at this. But these ones just don't IMO. A lot of the times, to me, it just comes down to shading.

In a perfect world, I'd still love to have two of every title and lots of people active to challenge for each. We have two tag teams in the entire division so I'm trying to keep everyone happy with stips that allow both. I know some members prefer wrestling, some prefer non wrestling. I think it's just as possible to make an amazing set of wrestling micros as it is non wrestling.

Jx will be posting his micros here without the blur. Feel free to change votes people, you don't need to review again. If you voted for us and his non blurry micros make you want to change the vote to Jgav, just reply saying that.

Welp, everyone else has summed up exactly what I was thinking for most of these entries, haha. MS Interim World ChampionshipErmolli: Love this Deathstroke design, and you captured it really well, the mask and armour look great. Hurricane: Very cool Robin, but the design just doesn't pop as much to me. Still quality work in the shading and shaping. -Vote: Ermolli
Exhibition MatchNext Generation vs. MassonNG: Nice work on the flannel, as well as the leopard print on the tights and boots. Not much resemblance, but everything else makes up for it, imo. Masson: The attire is good, but I don't see much resemblance. The tattoos look a little too bright as well. -Vote: Next Gen
Hurricane vs. SPZHurricane: The throwback style was well executed. The attire looks nice and the shading looks good as well. SPZ: Nice try with the pose but it looks kinda weird. The eyes creeps me out, and the shading needs work. You have to work with the AA. -Vote: Hurricane
Waiting for the non-blurred versions of JX's micros are up to vote on the tag match.

Special Throwback MatchThey are what they are and I'll judge this as if we were back in time 8 years or so. With that in mind, CM Punk would've amazed me because we never saw poses back then. If there were, they were stock template ones and SPZ has went a mile with this custom pose. The shirt design is very inaccurate but the head's not bad. I just love the shaping of the legs. Nice enough shading on Hurricane by his namesake but that's about all I can say here. So SPZ has done enough for me. thank you for understanding the purpose of the match, it suppoed to look like how we made them a long time ago, hurricanes looks current. the only thing that makes his "old school" is the big eyes, which i just got a complaint about, but back then all micros had big eyes. Also i didnt do any (or much) AA cause that wasnt a thing back then

Yours is sloppy even by old school standards. Old school does not automatically mean "of lesser quality". His has just as few shades as yours, he just used them better, and I'm willing to bet you just weren't aware of AA back then to notice it.

And Hurricane's doesn't look current at all, he just used everything better.

SPZ: "I didn't use AA because it wasn't big back then" Then why does your purposely average throwback micro look the exact same standard as your current ones (which also feature little to no AA fyi)? ______________ Here's the updated tag match people! vs.

J-Gaveration X (c) vs. HurriClaAsick JGX: Good micros overall. Gav, i see some resemblance on Malenko but not on Benoit. The attires are well done. JX, i like them as well, especially Saturn. Eddie lacks resemblance, but the attires look good. HurriClaAsick: I really like these. They look awesome, and i like the cartoony look as Alex said. The shading is very well done. Nothing i can complain about other than Donatellos mask, which should be purple. My vote goes to HurriClaAsick.
