Albeit a little bit late, they are finally here!
First Place
Shiharu
Score: 9/10
Although it is indeed a beautiful and well made piece, and is definitely deserving of first place, I can't help but notice some texture/shading issues on the girl (Cassidy, is it?). There are also very, very minor outlining flaws that come with most pieces that use a thicker outline. However a lovely choice in palette, amazingly accurate to their anime counterparts and a beautiful concept, well done!
Second Place
ZephyrPlusle
Score: 9/10
Another top piece, it was pretty much a stalemate between you and Shiharu for a while, but in the end I had to pick one. I feel the feet/legs are the main issue, they look a bit too flat, close and unrealistic in the way that the raised leg is positioned. Maybe having both hanging in a somewhat flying position would of worked better? Regardless, another strong concept that made great use of palette, style and shading. Nice job!
Third place
Riceeman
Score: 7/10
To be honest, it was VERY close between you and Katana for third place. I picked yours solely because the palette was tops and the sprite(s) fitted the PKMN style more. However i feel the concept is a tad cliche' and very similar to Katana's entry (which had being posted a while before) my main issue is the shading on the cloak/cloth type thing, It's not very fluent, it just looks like a block of lighter colour, maybe use up more space for that shade and then try a little AAing? Either way, it's an overall nice piece, and i really like the shadow(s), good job!
