New Art Competition - "Oh Dear" theme

[Eve Adams]

That moment when you discover your charming dance partner might not be quite so charming.

Lovely image @Littleevie. I love these sort of confronting themes... the DID (damsel in distress) realises the man-of-her-dreams is not who she thought he was. On-topic and I like it a lot. Thanks for entering the comp.

Title - Oh Deer!
You can tell by the wide googly eyes on these wood deer that something is amiss!

[Frank21]

I wonder how long it will take the leopard to realise those deer ain't for eating. Thanks for entering @Lapucelle.

Im gonna say 3

Okey dokey entries closed 2 days ago and judgement day is upon us.
As far as I can see there have been -
* 2 entries from @Lucafeelgood... “The last dragon” and “Pukkis grand discovery”


* @D0gg0d (Adam) has two? entries... "Surprise its Halloween" and "Pan galactic gargle blaster", I'm not sure the second one is actually an entry.


* @Marcelocaparoz (Silvio) has entered "OzzMouse"

* @Littleevie (Eve A) has entered what I will call the "Dancing Couple" image

* last but not least we have @Lapucelle with "Oh Deer!"

A big thanks to everyone who participated and an apology for not contributing something myself.

Judging - those interested can PM me with their top 3 picks. If nobody gets back to me I'll do the judging myself. Please PM by 20th Oct so I can publish results and award points etc.

Or perhaps someone doing something stupid/inappropriate for the setting. Stay within the site TOS for your images

Yep its an entry

I hope you can understand my reasoning for how the points flowed. I didn’t vote myself.
Next time I’ll make it clear about if you can vote for yourself and how many pics you can enter. Points will be sent over the next few days.
Thanks everyone for taking part. I liked all the entries. And a big thanks to those who added pts to the comp.

[ADAM]

Thanks for the contest and the inspiration

[Frank21]

Adam, I really liked your pictures. If I voted I'd have given your Halloween one a high ranking as I know it's technically very hard to set up a scene like that, and it's very much in keeping with the theme.
Thanks to Plebby, Eve Adams and ShadowDemonLord for their 10,000 pts each in support of the competition.
I might start awarding points in reverse order due to the transfer limit. Ozzmouse will need his/her pts split over 2 days.
Does my points system make sense to everyone?

[Eve Adams]

Thanks for running the competition Frank, and well done to some worthy winners. The quality was there for all to see.

[Lucafeelgood]

Big thanks to @shadowdemonlord @plebby and @littleevie for there support. Flowers to all the participants and a big hurrah to Frank, who made this exiting contest.

[Frank21]

Fuck it (excuse my language) I just realised that Dancing Couple was overlook in the points. I knew I'd screw something up. Sorry @Littleevie (Eve A), I'll send you 2,000pts... I think your image (as I mentioned before) is very special.

[ADAM]

@Frank22

Thanks!

Points are just a bonus. I like the inspiration, practice and comparison.
(Not saying a few votes wouldn't have been nice) 😛

It got me to use the IES profile which I've only used one other time and it worked better than expected.

[Frank21]

IES profile? I had to look that up @D0gg0d. In your opinion is it worth the effort?
