Agreed, However had to choose, make the shot I wanted using Minfilia as Alice or make it brighter with the sun minion. I took the risk, just hope it pays off in the long run. :)

So excited to be able to vote now~
First of all I want to say everyone's cosplay choices were amazing! Wish I could pick more than 4 of each! ;____; And also in no way do I know what I'm talking about with lighting and such, I'm just talking about how I see the picture as appealing~

First the women: (not in any particular order!)
1. Lowena Fae: This was a beautiful shot ^-^ The flower on the wrist was a nice touch and the setting gave an extra umph to who the character is~
2. Rhaya Relenah: The way you angled the shot was perfect~ I really like how you put the other person so close to the camera to make your character look so small. The mushrooms were also a nice touch :3
3. Miki Hoshi: I really love how your fist is the focus of the shot, it draws the attention right to you
4. Xev Bellwyn: Although you're not the only character in the picture, my eyes immediately draw to you (I'm not quiet sure why this is, the contrast of colors maybe?) but I love it~

Guys turn~: (again not in any specific order)
1. L'yhan Nunh: I really loved the setting for this shot, it was the perfect time of day with great colors :3 I also liked the ship in the background, it also covered the sun a bit, which i liked as well (My eyes normally focus on bright colors so I'm glad I wasn't distracted XD).
2. Marik Destiel: This is a wonderful shot! I love how the lighting reflects off of your skin in a way that makes it look kind of dirty (kind of like the face paint). I like how the shadows also give a dark feel to the shot, but the light on the grass helps contrast that a bit.
3. Fate Lhas: I'm a fan of night shots, and I really think this atmosphere works for the character you went with. It's hard working with this area at night, because of the purple and blue haze it gives, but I think that you worked that to your benefit :3
4. Sienna Moonlux: I like the environment you picked for this shot, I also like that you used umbrel ice to contribute to the theme :3 although the lighting is a little low, I think it works well for the look you were going for ^-^


I wish everyone the best of luck! :3

Your lighting was fine.
By the quality, I meant that it looks like there are hard, pixel edges on your face. Did you crop the picture? That could have messed with your picture quality a little. Cropping is good for get the positioning you want and to get rid of excess space but next time, you might want to have a picture that is zoomed in a bit more, so then there is more data for the crop to work with.

Nope, took the picture on my laptop. At the time it was what I had to play the game. Runs on lower quality than my PC.

Cropping and editing is against the rules for ENTM anyway. ^^
