The Judges

_{so far}
Extremely picky but with an eye for talent. Has a love for concept and ideas behind the actual work
I'm a little picky ^^ I definitely prefer more detailed works to simple ones... I'm more interested to see works that tell a story with interesting background elements and such~
looks further then skills and is an appreciator of original styles
values an artwork in many aspects - concept, technique, as well as interaction with the watchers' eyes, what kind of feelings it brings to us. looks forward to seeing many entries with souls in them. C:
really loves concepts and ideas, but also I love well-chosen colors and expression.
  long as the artist has passed a set degree of threshold of skill, I would not be picky. To me, what matters more is the relevance to the theme and the depth of the message the artist tries to deliver.

Is a colormaniac and hopes to be impressed by the total effect of an drawing.
Hopes to see some artistic sense.  loves smooth lines and looks for a special flow in the artwork

I wish all participants the best of luck and spread the word
