Title: Running a Contest.
Post by: Umeko on 2018-07-09 09:02:55
I didn't know where to post this so move me if it's the wrong room!

I'm running a contest on Deviant art, it's a celebration of Skyiler *as you know him* being alive for 10 years.
 
So yeah :D contest, look in my journal ^-^

Happy birthday to him.  Almost as old as my longest running character in a comic series I started in 1996.  Still going strong. :)

1st- Wolfymewmew @ DA It shows the best example of design, proportions, and coloring.

2nd- Knyte @ Furaffinity The flat palette and overall design is decent and really shines as a younger kinda Skyiler.

3rd- Wolfstar15 @ DA  Their use of color and lighting takes what would have been a rather flat headshot and really brings out the small details.

Runners ups:
Pplove- great use of color, decent lighting. Facial proportions and structure convey a nice bit of emotion. The use of so much dark shadowing kinda dims the piece, however.

Cocoa/mandi/sangy- all three show decent coloring and line work. Proportions and scaling take away a bit, but overall theyre still something id proudly say "lookit what my friends did!"

Sushi- another great example of color use. However, the posing and shadowing without a point of reference makes the piece seem a bit...robotic. overall still a good piece though.
