  13. ( CRITIQUE FROM JUDGE 1 ) @tropicolds :
  14.  
  15.  
  16. • Things I like:
  17. The colouring and the placement of the models. The colour scheme black-orange is pleasing to the eye, as orange is the focus and black provides negative space. The models are not too big, not to small - just good to be the most important element. The text is also well placed on the graphic, the fact that author's name and the title have the same width gives the graphic a vibe of professionalism.
  18.  
  19.  
  20. • Things I dislike:
  21. The font and the use of textures. The idea of textures is good, this cover needs textures, but the one you've chosen looks rather copied and pasted there, it doesn't blend in because it creates that margin on the left. The font is rather suitable for fanfiction than for a dark cover. I can assume what's the effect you were looking for, it just doesn't look as expected.
  22.  
  23.  
  24. • For improvement:
  25. Use more "foggy" textures or brushes, like you already have on the cover and replace the rough one with something softer.
  26. For the text, if you really want to keep this font, I suggest making it bold, rasterizing the layer and using the smudge tool at the
  27. ends of it. Other fonts would be: Moon, Nexa, Times New Roman.
  28.  
  29.  
  30. • Score: 8.5/10
  31. Reason: -1 point for text, -0.5 for texture

  42. • Things I like:
  43. okay, first, I absolutely love the vibe and the colors used here. I like the background, the textures, and the font- to an extent.
  44. The placement of the author is perfect and the lighting on the models is really good.
  45.  
  46.  
  47. • Things I dislike:
  48. The positioning of the models look slightly weird and I can see a line around both of them.
  49. The font doesn't seem like it fits and is in a very odd place.
  50.  
  51.  
  52. • For improvement:
  53. I think that the models should be less different in size because they're standing so close to each other,
  54. and possibly make them both smaller. The title could be moved to be in front of them, and switch it with the author for balance.
  55. About the line around the models, I'd recommend a defringe of 1px or just manually erasing it yourself.
  56. I'd also put a text style on the title- while it does blend slightly under a lighting texture,
  57. it needs a bit more to bring life into the cover.
  58.  
  59.  
  60. • Score: 8/10
  61. Reason: deduction for text and model line
