106.5//150 Diino: 7.6.6.7.5=31 It lacks a theme, the hat and the nose really make me want to think theres a theme but there really is not. the actual shades of your colors are matched quite nicely theres a few off oranges and reds but orange is such a rare color on gaia that i didint take it down to much. the actual consistency of the colors is a little low, for instance you theres colors all over the sides and then the center is just plain white. the tie is the only color on your torso, which was a bit disappointing. Autio: 9.8.7.7.7 = 38 Face is a little bare, the torso is a big chunk of white and the head is a big chunk of black. Interesting color scheme and item choices. Lin: 7 8 9 6.5 6 = 37.5 I like your color combo, the colors are evenly balanced and even the orange is matched well. Also, I love the matching patterns on the red head scarf and the shorts. Theme falls flat, as it seems this could go in multiple directions but never does. You could get away it if this was a pure matching avatar, but the eyes, nose, hat, etc. make me think you want there to be a theme. Layering is nothing particularly interesting, and I wish you'd layered more on the head. (Since you did on the torso & legs.) Overall though, a solid entry.

117//150 diino: 8.8.8.7.8=39 (Diino, your math was off, so I edited this! -Impre) the colors and the layering were dont really well here however i must say its shape is not normal and quite a bit off, it's either the veil of the the urn which gives off a fat bubbly appearance im not quite sure but it's not nromal. Autio: 9.9.8.8.8 = 42 I love these colors together! A couple of your blues are slightly off, a couple purples are more obviously off. I kind of like the shape of this, it's weird but in an interesting way. Lin: 8 7 7 6 8 = 36 I like the subtle, deep color scheme. Your layering and item choices are rather wonky, particularly the layering of the bottoms, and the oven mitts. It might have worked if the over mitts matched perfectly, but they don't, so they stick out too much theme-wise. Matching is okay, could be better. Particularly the teals are off. Theme is looking pretty good.

127//150 Diino: 9.8.8.8.8= 41 the shape from the cloak is a bit off, you have a good sence of color because the greens match with each other quite well, i think you could have gotten a bit of yellow on the head. Autio: 9.9.9.8.8 = 43 I have honestly never seen anything like this before. The leg layering is awesome and you used those odd greens really well. It's really pretty and works well together. Lin: 8.5 9 9.5 8 8 = 43 Jam, you really can do no wrong, huh? I love the theme you've got going on, and I can't get over how awesomely that scarf layers with and matches that cloak. The leg area is the only part that doesn't really wow me, since it's not as creative as the torso and especially the head. But everyone does match almost perfectly, so that's not that big of a problem.

95//150 diino: 6.5.6.7.7= 31 the only thing i like about this avatar is the face. the face is gold and cute and has expression, but the layering is sloppy and amateurish, the purples are all quite different, and is looks like you just layered some purple and black items and through on some demon'y items. Autio: 6.7.7.6.7 = 33 Nothing I haven't seen before, to be honest. Your purples are kind of wonky, it would almost work if they were distributed better. The lack of skin balance is really bugging me. Lin: 5 6 6 7 7 = 31 To be honest, there's nothing here I haven't seen a thousand times before. Color scheme is unoriginal and safe, and almost all of your purples are off in matching. The face, though it looks okay by itself, sticks out like a sore thumb since it's the only place skin is showing. I do actually think your foot layering is pretty good, but it's not enough to completely redeem the avatar as a whole.

124//150 Lady_Khacung  heres my final submission Diino: 8.9.8.9.8=42 This is one of my favorites so far, the facial expression is wonderful and the theme you put together was really quite nice the only thing i can thing to improve it is on the torso under the beads maybe the white genie gem? just a touch of white would have improved this, but with all the textures and the layering, its a great job. Autio: 8.8.8.9.8 = 41 This is actually a really interesting mono, you've used items that I almost never see used. I spy a set, though... xD The face is really amusing, but it stands out as a giant block of white. Lin: 7.5 8 9 8.5 8 = 41 Nice, this is one of my favorite tekteks I've seen from you. I love the face, it's priceless. Obviously black and white is not really a bold and daring color scheme, but for the most part you made up for that with interesting textures. I'm giving you a high score for layering because, though I think you didn't actually use a lot of items, everything LOOKS complex and layered. I actually had to stare at the torso for a long time before I started to understand how you'd done it.

80//150 general_amlex  [img]http://public4.tektek.org/img/av/0908/d25/0131/e1ea425.png[/img] there you go. ;D diino: 7.5.6.6.5=29 i have alot of problems with this avi. Your a reg in the AT so i really didint expect something this under par, but no points taken for that just a statement. confused anyway The head of this avatar makes me think " oh well the body is going to be amazing" because the head is quite lovely however i was wrong, the layering is nearly nonexistant and though the outfit was matched well the scarf sticks out and looks like you just threw it on, the color isint spread out anywhere on the body its just a glop in the center and then white outlines. im not a fan in the slightest. complexity would have been nice in this avi. I dont expect complexity from everyone every time, simplicity is usually refreshing but if you cant make simplicity, dont! Autio: 7.7.6.5.6 = 31 What? This doesn't look like something you would do at all. It's almost boringly simple, the yellow scarf doesn't really go with anything, and I have no idea what you were going for. Lin: 3.5 3.5 7 2 4 = 20 Um...well, to be fair, this does have the potential to be a nice avatar. But it looks like you just stopped trying like a quarter of the way through. There's nothing really original about it, and the only thing I actually like is the color scheme. But even that's not fantastic. There's no layering except for the two pairs of pants, the matching is surprisingly shaky for something so simple, and it's very topheavy. Sorry, but it's not good enough.

98//150 diino: 7.5.6.7.5=30 to be quite frank pug, i dont like it, and im sorry but thats the truth the browns are all very off from one another you should have put the white throughout the avatar or done a better job at keeping it to tiny speckles of accesories and the tail and teapot dont do much for you. there are many items that just confuse me. Autio: 8.7.7.7.7 = 36 This is quite unusual. I like the variety of browns, the only thing that doesn't quite work is the vest. I'm also a little conflicted on the white. Lin: 7 6 6 7 6 = 32 It's interesting, definitely. I wish it was better matched, because if the matching was great this would be quite a good avatar. I like the idea of using several different shades of brown, though I'm not sure about the white. I guess you do need a contrast color in there. I really don't think the tail was needed, as it makes the avatar top heavy. I like the head layering though, and the face.

76.5//150 Mr Meow Meows  Fwew, I almost forgot about this contest Dx diino:6.4.6.5.5=26 this is very underpar for a monochrome i expected more the layering is very simple, but it doesnt have the flair that simple avatars need which is partially because its monochrome the eyes are distracting and it has no theme. its just.. bad im sorry but its bad. Autio: 5.6.6.5.7 = 29 This bores me, kitty. It looks like it might have a story, but as a stand-alone it doesn't work at all. Next time, don't rush it. Lin: 2.5 4 7 3 5 = 21.5 Wow, I feel like I'm being harsh, but I can't help it. I'd rather be harsh than dishonest. And to be frank, there is nothing great about this avatar. It's unoriginal, and not executed well. Color schemes like this need something that makes them interesting, like Lady did with her textures. This has a blah theme, not much layering, and are those blue eyes and a green nose tattoo? I see absolutely no sense in those item/feature choices. Sorry.

103.5//150 diino: 7.5.5.6.7=30 this is a very theme oriented avatar and for the most part i like it but color wise and layering wise we have some problems. the layering isint WOW which is fine, complex avatars arent the key to winning simplicity is a nice refreshment. the second thing however is important and that's colors. the blue of the skirt does not show up anywhere else and there are many colors in the shash that also arent seen like the orange or white. or even really that shade of yellow. and the boots very clunky, i think this is more of a wip than a final. Autio: 9.9.7.8.8 = 41 This is flat-out adorable, and a little scary at the same time. I like how you pulled off the color distribution in a theme-fitting way, and it just makes me smile. Lin: 7 6.5 5 7 7 = 32.5 Very theme-y, which is not a bad thing, just a fact. I actually don't really mind the not-so-matched colors, but the gun bothers me to no end. It's way too harsh of an item in theme and color, and it throws off the flow which is otherwise not bad. I also wish you had used brown boots instead of black/gray ones. But this is cute, and it does seems like you were definitely putting some thought into it. So overall, not a bad entry.

134//150 Shawana_Chou  ☺☻☺☻☺
Here's my FINAL.
☻☺☻☺☻ DIINO: 8.9.8.9.9=43 this avatar is the definition of marvelous. im glad that when given a free round you managed to step up to the plate, the colors, the layering and the origanality even the face is just utter perfection good job shawana, if the rest of your entrys are as good as this one is you will most definatley be a force to be reckon with Autio: 9.9.8.9.9 = 44 Flat-out gorgeous. The aqua doesn't quite make it to the bottom, and that's my only complaint. It really feels like a water goddess to me, and I'm in awe of your purdy layering skills. Lin: 9.5 10 9 8.5 10 = 47 My god, Shaw, I would not mind at all losing to you in GNTM after seeing this. I'm glad you chose this one of your WIPs, as it's absolutely marvelous. (Though the other one was great as well!) I'm awed by the colors, they're so beautifully distributed and and matched. The only thing I'm not in love with is the odd bit of layering under the tail (of the dresses), but I can't take off that much for that. Definitely a favorite.

107//150 Teh Queen of Nerds  Mother Nature. diino: 8.8.7.6.7=36 another great entry the colors are done well except the head peice's yellow is a bit paler and brighter, its not a huge loss the layering simple but well done! Autio: 8.8.5.6.8 = 35 I'm conflicted on this one. It's really awkward-shaped and many of your greens and yellows are off, but at the same time it's cute and I like the face. Lin: 8 7 6.5 6 8.5 = 36 Nice, a good balance of theme and technicality. I do think the matching could be better, particularly of the greens, and I'm not crazy about the layering of the dresses since it makes it seem like she has gigantic hips, lol. I love the head, though. Distribution of colors is nice. It's very top heavy, and I'm not digging the random brown from the cape, but it's not bad as a whole.

131//150 Cyan Azzura Ri  Here's my final for this round! <3diino: 9.9.9.8.8=43 this is probably my favorite entry the theme is spectacular the layering is great and the colors are also quite great! good job and keep the great entrys coming! Autio: 9.8.8.9.8 = 42 This is really pretty and well-executed. The touches of yellow add so much to it, and it's all really well-matched. I'm not a fan of the bra layering, but other than that I adore it. Lin: 9 9.5 9.5 9 9 = 46 I love it. I'm impressed with how you've managed to make an avatar that has a lot of background items but doesn't look haphazard and uncohesive. The layering, not just on the avatar but also of the surrounding items, is lovely, and I'm really digging the textures. The little bits of yellow are great, and the whites/grays are matched really well. Great job.
