Group 1:
A: 7 A little to monotone. Tough to see the detail in the background.
B: 10 Very well blended and the lighting is fantastic.
Group 2:
A: 8 The render seems over sharpened and the effect behind the snowmobile looks just a tad to "much".
B: 5 The dragon isn't blended at all and the text just doesn't look right.
Group 3: This was a tough one.
A: 9 Very interesting concept. Love the animation but the right side is a little to dark. Maybe if the background came through a little farther to that side it would have been perfect.
B: 8 Great lighting and effects. Again, the right side seems a little to dark.
Group 4:
A: 9 Great depth and effects. Not thrilled with the text placement though.
B: 7 Snowboarder could have been blended better and could have used a few more effects.
Group 5:
A: 8 Very unique. Nice effects but the top left seems a little "empty".
B: 7 Nice depth on the left side but the right side seems way to bright.
I think the reason K is getting a lot of votes is because it's that time of year. For me, C is the nicest piece.
