If they got the finalists maybe its good to tell the others?!
I think it’s a very good idea how to score, so we can improve on our weak points, thank you.
I would really love to see all the entries as a contester... 🥲
Good luck to everyone! 🍀
Cant wait to see all the entries. My predicition is that a Princess Mononoke will win. There is a beautifully painted one.
Yeeeeeees! Also, there is a great 2B one painted similarly. There are great submissions. I hope we'll be able to view them all.
Yay!!! After the judging ends is there a way that we all can see how the judges scored and ranked us even if we didn’t win or make the top list of winners. I think it would be awesome to hear the judge’s opinions. Either way, thank you Tanuki and big thanks to the esteemed panel of judges.
It would be fantastic to be able to see the ratings received, so we could understand where to improve. :)
