SOTW #24: Congrats Contra Fates

[Mellusia]

Okie dokie, here's the poll for this week's SOTW. The theme was entries sized at 450 x 125.

Anyone may vote. Entrants can vote, but not for their own. Comments aren't necessary for your vote to count, but are appreciated to if you wanna say what you liked about the entry you chose.

Guess that's it. Have at it ;D

My vote went to #2. Visually appealing and well made.
#1, to me, is a little plain and looks squished >__< its a decent design, I think more could have been done with it to make it more appealing and a little less plain.

I really appreciate how you didnt SLAM #1's entry.


Imma go with one. At first i wasnt going to vote for it, but as i continue looking at it, its has alot of character.

is this sarcasm? idk why, but it just comes off that way to me. but anyway.

Indeed, slamming isn't my game, good ma'am.
This person has potential, I merely point out things that could possibly be tended to.

No it was not sarcasm. I just hate when people say things like, "It's ugly, or i they all suck." Art is art. Rather you like it or not being blanked in your opinions is annoying. I was just saying how i like how your stated your opinion but didn't disrespect the artist.

Voted #2.

While I feel that #2 was made more professionally than #1, I didn't dislike 1. With a few changes 1 could totally kick ass. The white around the black wing seems a bit out of place (although I know it was done so the wing is actually visible against the black background). Myself, I'd probably gone for a different colour background maybe. Also, a border would have pulled it together a lot more.

It also just now occurs to me that you could try and throw a few effects and filters over this to make it look like stained glass. You could give it a wonderful church-y vibe that way.


2 looks good. I like the text and the C4D fits the focal picture nicely. Good job.

I might try and enter with my borky version of Photoshop in the next one, but don't expect much.

Hmm... I gotta vote for 2#. The first one had potential, but I think it could have been better than it is. Also, there doesn't seem to be enough contrast in there... all the colours blend a bit too much, taking away from any distinct design it may have had.

[Contra Fates]

I forgot to mention which one I voted for, but my vote went for #1. I liked the colors a lot, so, whoever made it, just keep practicing! =)

[Lind_L_Tailor]

Um, I hate to bug about this, but... wasn't this supposed to end a couple days ago? Or do we still not have enough entries for 25#?

[Aleister Black]

I guess we're short on entries for the next one, I'm sure Mel would have put the next one up already otherwise.

I think she only has 1 entry now.

[Lind_L_Tailor]

I'll whip something up. It probably won't be very good, but it'll at least break the silence.

[Aleister Black]

Awesome, thanks!

[Mellusia]

After much delay, I've come to announce the winner is Contra Fates for entry #2! Congrats!
