  • Comment There are some rather obvious artefacts in the tail, presumably from the making the background black. Adam Cuerden (talk) 01:54, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. I'm not really a fan of the whole "fake black background with fake light and fake shadow" set-up, and I'm not even convinced it's been done that well- look at the edges of the antennae-like protrusions... J Milburn (talk) 23:17, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - The fake shadow is really not great with heavy banding and strange partial blur on the edges. Without it, though, I could see a FP. --LlamaAl (talk) 01:02, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
