HeroMachine Character Portrait Creator

Hooray, my thread. Thanks for rescuing it. I don’t mind starting over reposting what I have as long as it’ll stick around this time.

Do you have any idea if this issue is something that can be prevented? I wouldn’t want there to be a crisis every time I want to edit a post, especially since there doesn’t seem to be a preview option before submitting.

@Cille- There you go, I’ve gotten one of the threads back for you. I think it’s the second because it ended up in the spam folder and only has one post in it. Haven’t been able to find the other one, but at least you have a thread to work with.

So I need to revive this topic again because the same thing just happened to me when I created and then edited my first thread here (“Cille’s Unoriginal Thread Title” in the Art Gallery section). I guess it needs to be republished, except that the whole thing is likely a trainwreck now since I edited all three posts and they all got eaten. And also there may be two threads with that title because after the first one disappeared into the void I gave up and tried making a new one which also never showed up.

So… help? 😀

Okay, late on the judgin, sorry bout that! Been busy! Anywho…

1. Composition:

Very similar style in the pieces this round, with both having a kind of christmas-card-ey look to them. They’re both very fun to look at but also both run into the problem of seeming to straddle the fence a bit between a more 2d and a more 3d look, which makes the perspective a bit awkward. I think Korus did a slightly better job on presenting the intended scene; I’m not sure I would have known what was happening in Herr’s piece w/out the text.

Korus: 1/2

Herr: 0/2

2. Element composition:

Both pieces have all the items fitting very comfortably, nothing standing out in an awkward fashion. However, I think Herr’s piece more fully actually uses the items as the full objects (if at times piecemeal) are included in the numerous fashions they are re-purposed for the piece. By contrast, Korus’ items are used only partially, expanded beyond the limits of the frame to serve more as patterns/textures.

Korus: 1/2

Herr: 2/2

3. Creativity:

Both pieces depart dramatically from the items’ original intended use w/out appearing awkward but again, Herr’s multiple in-frame uses edges out Korus’s single partially-out-of-frame ones.

Korus: 2/3

Herr: 3/3

4. Aesthetics: Korus’s piece is, as previously mentioned, much clearer in its scene and feels more like a fully-encompassed piece to me so Ima give this point to Korus.

Korus: 1/1

Herr: 0/1

And both of you get the bonus point for the christmas theme which brings the total out to…

Korus: 6

Herr: 6

… I don’t think I’ve had a tie before so um… Ima go with whoever posts three items first gets to judge the next round!

Amazing Stuff!!!
