Running a Contest.

[Umeko]

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 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.

[Umeko]

Entries are now closed.
The judges will look over the entries over the weekend and results will be posted asap
Thank you all who entered.
So many lovely pieces came in.
No matter who the top three are, you're all amazing

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.

Thank you again I might hold another contest in the future.
