    Do you know that every rejection gives negative points to freelancer account? I would participate more in your contest but I don't want to risk negative points. You don't have to reject entry , simple don't give a star.You would probably have many more entries but people hesitate when see so many rejections . They don't want negative points. Best regards!

    #11 Green one is definately what we dont want to see. Way too childish, while we want art to be for grownups.Blue one is nice.

    #9 and #8 are nice ones and and defintaely the way we want to see it. #8 however need more colors and details to get the idea of artists vision.

    #10 The quality of the character is good but we definately dont want the argressive such sexuality and rather prefer more fantasy/realistic details in armor and characters outlook...

    #3 and #6 rejected as the image doesnt fit the initial task. However, artists are welcome to make sketched on the topic as their skills seem to be good enough.

      Very nice art, except for that we want character to be more highlighted and clearer on the background. Could you make couple of at least raw pencil sketches with the task charachers?

      • 11 years ago

      mean if you looka t image from afar you dont see the char clearly as color gammas are both gloom for bg and human being

    Hello! I have a question about your details. "2) Final images shall be both in pixels and vector." Does that qualification mean that we need to have vector and pixel versions of our artwork, or that either vector OR pixel artwork will be accepted?

    • 11 years ago
    1. Kisjukabra
