Thanks DS

hmm.. its very hard to vote.. :S

Chibi Jen: hmm.. what can I say; I had fun drawing it, but colouring took the longest XD I generally liked how the characters came out on this one esp Kaiya and Daisuke, except DS's eyes were suppose to look more freaky XD The overall look didn't turn out how I wanted it to be... so yeh, I liked it when I was making it, but I never really loved it (esp seeing everyone else's entry!)

Death Soldier:
oh, how brave! Chains are so very annoying to draw and u took it on ^^ I like the composition of this one, it's very freaky like, esp seeing Daisuke's facial expression and the man with the scars. Ruseiya looks like a nun! LOL Great job!

Digilee
Very nicely done Digilee, very fresh~ I like the mirror effect, red on one side and blue on the other The characters look neat and the background suits well. Sorta cute with Daisuke in the middle with Sparky, but I couldn't really see the connection (i.e Between the girls and Daisuke) Nevertheless, I say it captures the chapter well

Blu
Wow, first artwork of Yui and Ruseiya from u ^.^; Interesting style as well...Yui is lacking a lot of detail but I'll overlook it XD ehehe... The colouring isn't so bad and I'd say that's a great effort from you! Ruseiya looks neat, I somehow get the impression she's a pirate ^^; Ari looks as cheerful as always (actually..he looks MORE cheerful than I imagine ^^ Good on ya

Ruseiya
Less than I expected (considering it doesn't meet the requirements of the contest) but you got a neat initial sketch, it would have been better if you added a background and colour. Just a little more effort from u would have been nice

Blox
I just love this... when I first saw it (a couple of weeks ago) it just blew me away. Yui and her summon look awesome against the spiritmauler dude who looks just as awesome with the all 'magic' that's going around. Love the colouring. I think this cover really captures the 6th Chapter, as Miranda and Risa are properly introduced here, and Miranda dreaming about a pirate ship is just too cute. (A plus since it has a very cool Yui X3)

Belldandy
Another awesome entry... The black and purple work really well together, and the colours from the Kaiya, Hiagara and Daisuke really stand out. The characters have so much detail, and the three figures behind are so creepy! This one highly contrasts with the previous chapter cover. Well done!

Chibi Jen: Niiiicccce Really relaxing cover, (and colours used) suits the chapter very well. The DS eyes look great, makes it seem like something is watching over them closely.(along with half-Yui in the shadows..lol) The red really stands out! I love the colouring and shading =D Daisuke looks esp cute here~ The forest/grass field background is a great choice for the chapter as this is where it is set..love to see so much characters included~ An extra James Walter would have covered up the chapter even better (but of cos it doesn't really matter since he's sorta inactive..and doesn't even have a proper drawing of him =) ) Well done!

Death Soldier: lack of Colouring skills, lack of drawing skills, lack of design, and lacks depicting the Chapter..not very good..lol But here is what I have to present anyway..lol Uhm, spent ages on the chain..then lost patience..then inked it..then tried to fix it up on the computer xD got the idea of chains tieing everything together since the little battle they had..I saw two cruical stuff happening in this Chapter. 1- Higara/Sari taking Daisuke in the forest, 2- Fighting DS and meeting Ruseiya. I wanted to draw DS..lol, cos she's my character~ so I thought I'd depict this chapter like from Daisuke's nightmare...(all dark, but burning villages) and mysterious face in dream..I really wanted to draw Higara and Sari as well...but it might of looked weird, cos there's a Higara- look-alike already(mysterious face in dream), and Sari would have also been a hooded figure like Ruseiya..lol..yeh, that's Ruseiya in the cover if not one realised yet. Ruseiya' face wasn't revealed yet either so...yeh...I did put lots of effort into it though...xD


Digilee- Nice mirror design! =) I think that's a great way for introducing the Twins in the cover, and nice placement of colours too. Daisuke looks lika excited (?) in this picture. I think its a great idea to include the 2 animals in there too~ overall, very nice design and colours =)

Blu- Neat poses! The water summon is always a nice effect for Yui when battle ^^ I personally like the Ruseiya drawing the best out of the three, though she sorta remindsme of a pirate~ ^^; Did u do the three characters in one go? Cos it sorta looks like Ari is cut and pasted onto it. Yui's had, Ruseiya's sword and Ari's foot lok blurred, was that part of the effects u were after? overall, A good effort!


Ruseiya - Interesting poses XD not quite sure why its tilted though XD You should have finished it off Ruseiya!!! Including DS/bats wuold have been nice for Ruseiya's mini adventure I think


Blox: Amazing!!! xD Didn't expect any less from you It fits the chapter really well~ the dreaming pirate ship is cute XD I like Water summon and Miranda the best. I really like your colouring style and drawings. Extra effects help alot to bring it to life~Great job!


Belldandy- My first reaction to this was "WooooAH..so dark" xD and creepy lol Extra DS gives extra points The reaching out idea is very nice~ Everyone is getting engulfed by darkness..suits the chapter pretty well. I like the purple glow around the figures as well. Stands out heaps! Higara's clothing colours look great tooWhen you see all these big figures, you just can't help by try and see what that little blue thing in the centre is~ Daisuke's existence is fading...~ well done!
