Couples Contest Results

Oh, hey, looky here.
I lied, yet again.
I said I'd put these results out..... about twenty days ago.
Sorry. I've been busy.

Well, a friend, her mom, and I judged everyone's entries.
We all had similar opinions on the winners.
If you did not win, it does not mean that your art is bad.
I loved all of the entries. And I'm grateful for those who entered.
It means a lot that you put your time and effort into this.
If you have any complaints about the winners, or if you are wondering as to why you didn't win, please note either Sidly22 or Me.
Remember, neither of us will be upset if you do..... If anything, we'll both willingly give you critique, or other advice to help you improve.

I will tell you right now:
You WILL NOT get your picture prizes from me until my tablet is fixed.
I'm sorry for this inconvenience.
I will, however, give you your point prizes.
When I DO get my tablet fixed, I'll make you your prizes.
Please fill out all of your prize requests in a note.
Please refrain from asking for the following unless absolutely necessary:
Humans
Robots
Cars
Cities

Well, here are the results.
Enjoy.


In first place, we have this mighty-fine picture riiiiight here, made by PoliceCat

The judges all agreed that this was a great piece.
None of us could really describe why, but the angle the photo was taken really caught our eyes.
The style was also rather unique. The Anthro-like style was extra cool.
We loved this photo.  

You've earned the following prizes:
~A 1 Month Premium Membership (Or The Equivalent In Points) From rainylake
~An animated journal doll. It can be whatever you want, but not something that's next to impossible to animate.
~A full colored picture with a background of one of your characters.
~A full body picture of any one of your characters (No background).
~A Chibi version of any one of your characters.

In second place, comes this adorable work of art by Miyeong:

The poses were cute, and so was the atmosphere.
The lineless-like style was nice, as well.

In third place, we have lucykate651 with this picture:

I LOVED THIS!! This had an amazing background.
It was very creative, and the small details were creative and made me smile, like the hearts in between their tails.

You've earned the following:
~8 Points from Squigmunks (Me)
~Line-Art of one of your characters.
~A flat picture of one of your characters. (No shading, etc.)

Now, we have the fourth place winner. This winner just happens to be..... holyromanempireepic with this cute picture:
:thumb320202567:
It was kind of hard to choose this place, but since this had all of the judges literally going 'AWWW!!!!' It received this placing.
I love how cute this is, and how everything looks.... Little.

You will receive the following:
~5 Points from me.
~Headshot (Shaded) of your character.

Finally, we have the fifth place winner. Both lovely works of W-I-S-H-E-S caught our eyes, but I liked this one best:
:thumb339648182:
The lighting here was great.
I often have trouble with hard shading, and you did a remarkable job on it!
Your style was unlike any of the other entries I received, and it really stood out to me.

You will receive the following prizes:
~3 Points from me.
~Flat-Color Headshot of your character.

Now that the placing are over, I would like to announce the honorable mention-ers.
There were three.

I loved the scenery in this picture. It was really creative.
:thumb332758547:
I liked this because it was so cute, and it seems like you put a lot of effort into it. Thank you.

I loved your style here, and I also love the poses. I also like the clouds, too.

All of the honorable mentions will receive the following:
~2 Points each
~A Sketch of whatever character and background you want.

Everyone else who entered will receive one point for their time and effort.

I'm sorry I was so cheap on points, everyone.
I'm saving up, and I really don't have that many the way it is.
I hope I can make up for it in art prizes.


Thank you all so much for entering.
Remember that I loved all of them, and that I believe that they were all wonderful works of art.
I, along with the other judges, tried to judge them fairly and not with bias.
If you feel these results are unfair, I'm terribly sorry....
Please don't hate me.


Anyways.... Thanks for everything.
