  14. ( CRITIQUE FROM JUDGE 1 ) @tropicolds :
  15.  
  16.  
  17. • Things I like:
  18. Placements, quality of pictures, colouring. You used the circle with models in it as the main focus,
  19. adding little other things around it, which is a good thing. The flare that separates the faces looks nice, too.
  20. The pictures are of high resolution and you used a pretty, skin-friendly psd.
  21.  
  22.  
  23. • Things I dislike:
  24. Text, lack of symmetry. Even though I said I like the placements, there are still noticeable flaws.
  25. The way their faces are positioned makes the image look weird, and the circle is not exactly in the centre.
  26. The font used for title is not suitable for a Sci-Fi cover, in my opinion,
  27. and its colour doesn't suit the rest of the colours in the image.
  28. Everything has different shades of blue (I think they're called azure or cobalt), only the text is slightly green.
  29.  
  30.  
  31. • For improvement:
  32. Use a grid to find the centre of the image (the crop tool helps) and try to make something else with the models' faces.
  33. Change the colour of the text, and maybe change the font to some sans serif fonts like code, asgalt etc
  34.  
  35.  
  36. • Score: 8/10
  37. Reason: -1 for symmetry, -1 for text

  47. • Things I like:
  48. I absolutely love the idea you went for! this is a stunning cover. the sci-fi vibe and the color scheme go together well,
  49. and I love the light flare thing in the middle. The texture use is amazing, and i like the fonts you used.
  50.  
  51.  
  52. • Things I dislike:
  53. I know it's really hard to align faces but it doesn't look very good- the girl and the guy are at different angles,
  54. and nothing matches up- the eyes are on different levels, etc. The light flare looks almost tilted.
  55. Overlay mode almost never looks good for text, you almost made it work, but it really should be avoided instead.
  56. Your watermark stands out more than the title in my opinion, which should not be the case.
  57.  
  58.  
  59. • For improvement:
  60. I'd recommend rotating the guy's face so it's more straight, and size him right so they look aligned together.
  61. The light flare if possible could be tilted to be completely straight. Take off the overlay mode on the title + author,
  62. and maybe have the text white- you could switch the layer effects with the watermark.
  63. The title and author white, and the watermark unbolded and on overlay.
  64.  
  65.  
  66. • Score: 8/10
  67. Reason: deduction for alignment and text
