Comments: I like this, I mostly like how you have done it where there is a waterfall at the corner of the page. Nice touch, I looks good and it works. You have clearly shown you favourite animal and I can see the effort you put into this. You also got the scenery quite accurate in terms of where the tortoise would live. However, there are a few things with this. Although a good piece, I feel that the lack of colour means that some of the piece is lost. Even if it is just a little bit of colour, I think this piece would benefit as it would bring a bit more life to the piece and add a bit more depth. Also, the horizon is completely flat. If this was land, it would not be like this, there would be some form of shrubbery or foliage making the horizon less straight. In terms of a drawn piece, well done. This is good.

Comments: This piece is a nice starting point. It has nice colours, a good concept and is quite a charming piece. Although some bits are very flat, it seems to create a type of style that can be appreciated in itself. There are only two major issues I have with this, and those are the flatness of everything compared to the room, and the way the room is made 3D. I feel that the two prospectives clash here, if you made it all 3D, it would look better or if you made it all 2D. What I mean here, is that the room is intended to be 3D so it has the boxy room feel to it, but the table and drawers are really flat. These clash and make it seem a bit weird. The way you did the room also makes the room seem a little too long. It seems to extend quite a bit. Overall, if those were worked on it would be a nice piece. Well done and even if you feel you have no artistic ability, there is a starting point for everyone and it all is improve on from there.

Comments: I'm a reptile lover too! They are amazing! haha. But onto the piece, I like the way you made it a birds-eye-view of the hatching of the turtle. It is quite different from the others for that. I also like how it is at the start of the life cycle of the turtle as it seems to be interesting to you, and I agree it is brutal. I like how you have done the sand too. A few things to improve on would mainly be adding a few of the egg fragments, as the hole seems to have no fragments scattered around it and also maybe add a little bit of texure to the sand itself. However all of this is just to add to the overall look of the piece, so it is small but will benifit a lot. Great piece. Well done. :)

Comments: Where do I start with this, haha. I really like how you seemed to research this so you have the anatomy correct in terms of what we have found out. That would give you a lot of accuracy points there. Also, I like how you have layed with the two different looks. It doesn't look inconsistent, as it, in my eyes, demonstrates differentiation within a species. The one issue I have with this is the light sources. It seems to me that there is two. The normal source which would be the sun that you can see on the tree's foliage in the background which is coming from the left, but there is a second, more bluish light source coming from the right reflecting off the tree trunk. This is the only thing that bugs me a little with this. Other than that. Good work there.

Comments: I like this as it has more of a painted approach due to the lack of lines. I also like how it seems to be flying away from some sort of fire or explosion. The anatomy looks ok as some things don't look out of proportion but that tongue looks rather large, however, this may have been the intention. I like how you did the wings too, theywork well. A few little problems I have with this is the fact that some things look a little off. For example, the horns looks less rounded and more flat but this could just be the shading on it. Also, they seem to get fatter up the horn which usually isn't the case, they usually get thinner, again this could be due to the style, but it makes it look a little strange. Also, some parts of the background could be touched up a little, the main part being the stone. The way you did it makes it seem to melt into the redish rock. Overall, I like this piece. well done.

Comments: I like the idea of this, although slightly grim and depressing, it symbolises the harshness of nature sometimes, which is a nice idea. Also, the anatomy looks good and the cubs look really cute, haha. Also, the rocks look good and don't look awkwardly placed. One main issue I have with this is the fact that there is a lot of white space, just like Morzone had. I feel like more could be done with this, even if it is just adding some grass or ground of some sort. Then it would just make it a bit more creative and less blank. However, without this, it is still a great piece. Well done.

Comments: I like this piece. I has a lot of atmosphere and I really like the colours you have going on here. It is a really atmospheric piece. The anatomy is good, the antlers look great and I like how you have used purple as a shadow for the white hair as it suits the piece a a whole. The main issue I have with this is that the water (I assume it is water) seems to actively blend in with the sky and you do not know which is which. This is a little confusing. Also, I have had to demote a few marks because of the use of glows. I usually would let this go because I know glows can be done authentically, but they look a bit too perfect. I apologise but it does say that effects and edits may not be used.

Comments: This is a nice piece. The emotion in the otter makes it quite sad. There are no huge issues with the anatomy and I like how you have gone for an underwater city idea. The only issue I have is that this is not clearly shown. When I first saw it and if I did not read your little description, I would have thought they were at a window of a normal skyscraper. So I feel if you add a few bubbles or watery features to show it is an underwater city then that would make it much better. Also, I feel because it is underwater, to clearly show this, you could add a bit more to it rather than just have skyscrapers, so maybe just little shoals of fish swimming around. It doesn't have to be that but something like that if it makes sense. Well Done.

Comments: Why does this cat look so myschievous? haha. I like the whole environment of this, it suits the type of cat it is, making the cat look posh and sassy, which is quite funny and interesting here. I also like how you did the cat itself. The whole style is very well done and I think the best part is definitely the head. The one thing with this that needs to be sorted is the tiles on the floor. They look like perfect squares. This would only be the case if you are looking at it from a birds-eye-view. This means that it makes it look like he cat isn't actually standing on it, so you would need to angle the tiles a little bit to make it look a bit more accurate and look better. Also, with the light source, the shadow the cat would be casting would extend a bit more to the left and I feel bits of the shadow are lost so that is the only other thing that needs to be fixed by making it darker and extending it a bit to the left. Other than that, well done.

Comments: Theres one thing here that I will mention first off. You were late submitting this piece by a few hours. I will not discount it as you still entered and it wasn't rediculously late, however, I will take 5 points off your final score because of this. So, I personally like this one. I feel like the sky would take ages to complete because of the amount of stars you put onto it and how it looks so delicate. That will give you effort marks. Also, I feel the owl was drawn well. I like the colours and they all work well together. One thing I will mention is the legs that are seen. I know we can't see all of the legs, however, the parts we can see look slightly awkward. Other than that, well done.

Here is the WEEK 2 rejudge that Neo Emolga asked for. I have rejudged based on what he said and what I agreed I should need to change.
I am working on Week 3's results and they will be up later along with the last Theme of the WAR
