I really like your HTTYD treatment, SgtYayap! A couple of constructive criticisms: it wouldāve been better if you introduced a ājoltā sound effect when Hiccup first sees Toothless much like how John Powell did it. Also, the piece didnāt quite āclimaxā when Hiccup was about to stab Toothless. I was expecting a rising crescendo or at least the strings to quiver or something, but nope, it still remained āambientā. Missed opportunity.
Other than that, I really love how you tried to make the ending very scary with the disturbing chords as Toothless pins Hiccup to the rock. And the middle bits were pretty good too.
Just a word of advice; try to comment on other peopleās work here and participate in the discussions instead of only posting updates to your music work and fanfiction (although I do see you from time to time on the Monsters Inc forum). Perhaps people will start to take notice of you and then pay attention to your work when you comment on theirs!
I also compose music. But I more do custom soundtrack production.
Here are the examples I use to show how well I compose music. soundcloud.com/tws-soundlab
Sorry it took a while to get to these; alas, been pretty busy.
Itās alright that you give criticisms TDIT. I really do want to try my best, and input will only help make it better. Iāll certainly consider reviewing others, but Iām not certain Iād have the time, proven by how long it took me just to respond to my own thread.
Iām going to ignore the bragging and have a look when I can, S 330.
No worries, SgtYayap! Iāll just reiterate that comments are free (the only cost, as you said, is time), and seeing as much of fandom works are entirely voluntary and non-profit in nature, a kind comment or critique is worth its weight in gold. I hope you find my input just as valuable and rewarding! Keep up the good work.
Hello? Is anyone noticing MY music? I donāt want to have to abandon one of the only threads that keeps me here regularly, but it seems Iām talking to a wall, unlike for S 330.

These two covers highlight it!
