@Atyroki's: It's quite well done, though it does make me think of Gallade a little. But it doesnt matter, I think it is really an impressive piece of work.
@Cyzir's: At first i thought it looked more of psychic to me, but now i can see the 'fighting' element :). And I think ur idea is really the most original, we haven had a sea anemone pkmn! It's a fresh idea, really. Great piece of work.
@Cartoons!'s: Those animations really rock! I also think that its quite a good piece of work dere, although i feel maybe its not as "pokemon-ish"? (doesnt matter anyway, and i tink the rules state that i shldnt include comments like this). Anyway i think you're really a very talented cartoonist, great work!
@Wyverii's: At first i thought, yea it's a good piece of work but not yet great. But i was impressed when i saw the final submission. I was like 'Whoa!' because that battlestork's pose in the final submission was really WIN. And yea, with that "hidden flying element", i think ur battlestork would make a brilliant pkmn, being a water/fighting type with possibly moves like brave bird and roost.
@Caladbolg's: At first i thought it looked abit like Swampert, but with the coloring, i think it does look different althogether! Its quite impressive, i must say, although the color of the tail is abit not fitting with the rest of the body.
@Vividsketch's: I tink ur work has pretty much potential, i like it, but i tink sadly its not as popular with the rest of the ppl here as compared to those mentioned above, i tink the quality of it nw is between good and great, still seems to be lacking sumthing to reach the standard of great, maybe its the eyes? I think the eyes should look fiercer? Just my opinion, i prefer the one with the white eyes, nice work anyway.
I think the first 5 i mentioned all have good chance of winning this, its really close. As for vividsketch's, i tink it has potential but seems its not as popular comparatively among the ppl here. This is real tough to vote IMO.
As for the others, dun give up! You all can do it too!
Oh yea, almost forgot, i tink Doug's works are good too!
Just my 2 cents worth :)
