Criticism/judging time for me!

Ball of Malt v2 - (Neo?)Classical Country music aside, this song surprised me the first time I heard it after looking at this token. They seem to match very well; although when I listen to it, I imagine an old-fasioned drinking party in a saloon for some reason. And you would find cowboys like the one in this token in saloons every once in a while.

Kirlian Shores - The kirlian photograph in the red one doesn't seem to fit the...calm tone this song carries, so I think that a cool color would fit better for this song (that's what you're doing for the second token, though); but I'm sure the edge of the hand on that token is fine. Okay token IMO. The second one just seems to stand out a lot better, but I can't really figure out why...maybe a historical painting of the coastline of an ocean just seems to scream out "Kirlian Shores" to me.

MLP Melody - I agree with popsicle on this one; those tokens are miles better without ponies than with. The rainbow outline on the second token is kinda what steals the competition away for me for this song; regardless, both tokens match the show (or, at least, represent one of the characters) perfectly.

S - Remix of classical piano song, meet Spitfire's piano GFX. The positioning of the black keys is almost completely uniform in relation to the finger. And had it not been for that black outline on the hand, it could have been regarded as invisible, or blending in with the white keys. I personally found it to be unfortunately generic for my tastes, the overhead piano keys just don't seem to work for me. Worst token out of the bunch IMO.

The Games we Played - Aside from FFR's trademark Skill Token hand being replaced by Crazy Hand from Melee, this one just kicked my fuckin' ass. That's all I will say for this one.

The Earth Blew Up - Fires of Hell, engulf the planet and burn it to ashes (insert evil laughter)! It's hard to find an image of a nuclear explosion from space, but this image still seems to represent the token very well (I tried looking for one myself a couple times, couldn't find one). Also, am I the only one that convinced myself that looks a little bit like a dragon? Just saying. Regardless, I really like this token; the image of Earth being swallowed by fire just puts a smile on my face when I look at this.

World End's Yama Xanadu - You know every movie that starts in a post-apocalyptic future at sunrise? This seems like it could be from one of those movies. I know, it's considered to be a bit of a cliché, but it fits here. I'm not even going to question the possibility of several F5 tornadoes striking North America within the next year.

Great job on all of these tokens, Spitfire. I appreciate any responses you have.

also zephei that token for white walls pt2 is boss...That crack in the wall makes the hand stand out perfectly. Even the black outline is really good, like it contrasts the wall.

EDIT: Thanks, noname for clearing that.
