 ( CRITIQUE FROM JUDGE 1 ) @tropicolds :
 
 
 • Things I like:
-Placements, colouring. This is a very nice texture-based cover.
+Colour palette, brushes, placements. Everything looks good and the mood suits the story genre.
-I like how you chose a plain background and used a few brushes to bring the model in the centre of attention.
+
-I love the effects used for title, and the purple-orange contrast makes the cover less ordinary.
+
 • Things I dislike:
 Text, Models' hue.
 The author's name and the subtitle have the same size, which may be confusing for the reader.
-The watermark, some effects. The signature is in a totally different font and it draws attention unnecessarily.
+The models have a yellow hue, it makes them look pale in comparison to the rest of the cover.
-I also don't like the association of lens flare and grunge texture, they are opposites for me.
+
 
 • For improvement:
 Move the author's name at the top of the cover, all words on a single line.
- change the font of your watermark, and might look better if you remove the grunge texture.
+Using color balance, give the models an orange-y tone instead of yellow.
 
 
 • Score: 9/10
-Reason: -0.5 font, -0.5 texture
+Reason: -0.5 text, -0.5 hue

 ( CRITIQUE FROM JUDGE 2 ) @impassively :
 
 
-This is stunning. The textures are beautifully used and the effect you did with two halves is nice.
+
-The light flare is beautiful and really caught my eye.
+I like the idea you went for and the colors used!
-The left eye is so beautiful, the way you brought out the *shine* (see what i did there).
+
-The colors and the psd are really good together.
+
 • Things I dislike:
 The title is very low quality (blurred out?) and the couple looks kind of out of place.
 The author is also placed in an awkward place. I can see some awkward things around the cover,
-The red in the text while beautiful in the title, is a bit hard to read the author.
+like in the R there's a half erased moon of a flower or something.
-The right eye looks blurrier than the left, but it could be due to the grid texture over it.
+
-The watermark is a little too visible.
+
 • For improvement:
 I think you should move your watermark up, put the author where it was, and move the subtitle to where the author was.
 I also think blending in the couple (referring to colors) would make it look more put together.
-Maybe change the author so it's just all white, or make the red brighter.
+Maybe erase the parts where you forgot- like on the bottom right there's a half pink moon, and in the R.
-If the watermark is bolded, unbold it or lower the opacity of it.
+
 
 • Score: 7/10
-• Score: 9.5/10
+Reason: deduction for text and blending
-Reason: deduction for text
