So I'll give my honest opinions for our contestant this Month, (Specially it's my birth month tho)
Contestant #1
I like what you've did on your piece tho, It's not that catchy on my part. And also the render is kinda distorted for my view. But you did a great job doing your background and doing the effects. My advice to you is watch more videos about signatures and stuff add more effect on it. I can see a big potential on you! Kudos!
Contestant #2
Yours is too simple in the same way "dull" for me, You've like to add more flow to it and some colors. That's all
Contestant #3
I really like your piece my only concern is that you could just made the background smudge a little bit or lower the opacity of the colors, and blur it a little more so that the render can be recognize, Problem is it's too flat for the piece colors and the render is as one on your piece. But all in all you've did a great job doing this piece. Really like the theme that you made here. Kudos!
Contestant #4
Yours is that overload of renders I know the theme is Hunter X Hunter and you want to feature all the characters but you should just have chosen two or three characters, Because the problem is your render will eat too much space on your piece, it's just you've made it paste there and give it a text and done.. Tho I can see that you made your effort and I can appreciate your piece.
Contestant #5
Among all of them your piece is too small, I wanna know why did you choose this size on the contest, tho your signature is still good it's still a big difference when you talk about size. Because as an artist I can put a lot of things on piece. Not like on a smaller size your creativity do have limitation that you can't even express what you want with your piece.. Your piece is as good with Number #3 the difference is you've got a background but no life. It's like you signature is lonely, add more lights on it brush a little more on the background, express yourself a little bit more and lower the topaz you use on this, It ruined your piece. Honestly learning topaz is really hard, You need to have the exact measurements of your piece that it will become balance. Don't worry I do like what you've did here. Just next time be more expressive. Kudos!
I do have 2 winners, # 3 and # 5 but only one can win this competition, so my vote will be for # 3
