I would've voted for this one for sure just cause panty flash

It was between two shots for me, and I SO wanted to use this one...but I felt it was far too dark. But I thought it had so much more character <3 Who doesn't love a squishy peep?

I mean he's all 'I can help Jinxie! Lemme get the rope!' PEEP!

Great job, everyone!

Here is a (small) selection of some of my other shots and ideas for round 1...

Hehe, thanks! My friend and I did so many shots at that table with him in that costume, there are some great /doze and /think ones xD but I thought that maybe they were too comical to submit! Haha

First off, my apologies for casting a vote. I'm new to the modeling business and was unaware of us not allowed to vote whilst still modeling. (Makes sense though!)

I too had a lot of screenshots to choose from. There were the ones below, but for reasons I went with the one I submitted.

I tried to do battle ones, but players gathered to the FATEs I wanted very fast, photobombing almost every shot.

Now that I know that the images posted in the gallery are scaled down, I will pay more attention to zooming in on my character more! ;)

These were my other choices x-X

Tried to do fighting versions, didn't always work well. XD

So went with the idea that we were guarding the gates, determined to protect our precious Grid. :)

ah that looks so cool! XD I really like the one you went with too though
(it kinda looks like you're being sucked into a portal! o__o)

It's great seeing all these awesome screenshots! I want to vote but still struggling to hit the 10 post requirement. I'm just not a very chatty person.

I left an entire thesis paper for my votes. I may have been an a**hole while leaving critiques. >x>()

Thought y'all might find this amusing... fell though the docks in LL and ran around the ocean for 30 minutes XD

Not at all! You have given us all creative criticism to help us become a better model. I'm sure we all appreciate it. I know I do! :)

I love falling through stuff like that! Well unless it's at a really bad time. But when you're alone and just exploring or hanging out it's kind of fun! :)

lol yeah people were wondering how I did it, it was funny :)

Here are some more I really considered too, but I just felt they were "pretty" shots and didn't fit the theme thematically, I think my last one that I chose to enter was honestly my personal best one, my opinion ofc. But here are some more!

Actually... this first shot was a blooper shot lol, we were trying to sync up two emotes and it just didn't want to happen haha.

A couple people said that mine looked photoshopppy and I should've blended more/ centered more. :( ironically I do have that picture, but I chose the brighter less centered one. Do you guys think I made the wrong choice? This one was my runner up that was almost submitted.

I personally like what you did to the sun minion. Because it makes your character pop out, like literally I feel your Miqo'te is about to jump off my screen and yell "TWIN ADDER!!!" lol

I will admit, I personally like this one centered wise better, but I think the lighting is a bit different in the one you submitted that really just popped (almost literally) just my opinion though.

I like both though personally my favorite is the one you submitted. This one gives kind of an optical illusion that you are a giant emerged from the water ready to stomp all over the city like Godzilla. Your concept really kicks ass and is definitely one of my favorite. It's well thought out and quite visually appealing.

Not gonna lie, this would have been my choice for first place. The lighting is even better in this one. >x>

Thank you all for your words and critiques for both pics! I've never had such a hard time picking photos before. You always fight yourself on which one you think people will like more. Everyone had such great photos and ideas. And FOR TWIN ADDER!!

Sienna I really like your pic regardless! ^^

Here's my uncreative attempt at the first round theme XD:

Everyone's pictures look superb! *^* I'm really excited to see everyone's pictures for the future rounds! :'D

It's just so dynamic!

It's soo tempting to look through the votes, but I'm too nervous to even take a look out of fear of depressing myself further! This is nerve wrecking. :(

:D thank you!!!!
Everyone's photos were great!
I can't wait for next round if I make it! I had a lot of fun doing the cosplay!

Just a little preview of the opening credits of the YT cycle! This is a mock scene using my alt. ^^;

http://i.imgur.com/LDGgT96.png

The banners on the top and bottom are scrolling in opposite directions, while the backgrouns is slowly zooming in, and the Polaroid and model come in from different sides and then go back to their sides. It's really quick and looks really cool. Still lots of work to be done though! I might change the angles of the banners a bit, and make the models/Polaroids come in from the top/bottom instead.

Was tough choosing an outfit and getting a picture when I found out yesterday she was being considered

You did great on short notice. I know that feel, the same thing happened to me in C2.

I love all of your shots but this one is especially endearing. Such an excruciatingly adorable character! Looks like she's on a night stroll with her little puppy looking out on the Aftcastle.
