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

- ( CRITIQUE FROM JUDGE 2 ) @impassively :
- • Things I like:
- I absolutely love the idea you went for! this is a stunning cover. the sci-fi vibe and the color scheme go together well,
- and I love the light flare thing in the middle. The texture use is amazing, and i like the fonts you used.
- • Things I dislike:
- 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,
- and nothing matches up- the eyes are on different levels, etc. The light flare looks almost tilted.
- Overlay mode almost never looks good for text, you almost made it work, but it really should be avoided instead.
- Your watermark stands out more than the title in my opinion, which should not be the case.
- • For improvement:
- I'd recommend rotating the guy's face so it's more straight, and size him right so they look aligned together.
- The light flare if possible could be tilted to be completely straight. Take off the overlay mode on the title + author,
- and maybe have the text white- you could switch the layer effects with the watermark.
- The title and author white, and the watermark unbolded and on overlay.
- • Score: 8/10
- Reason: deduction for alignment and text
