TASK 3 RESULTS

This week, we challenged our contestants to create a high fashion, editorial graphic drawing inspiration from an assigned season of Limited Edition. The collections assigned were drastically different and gave our designers a chance to show us what they could do with strict limitations. Let's see our judges comments...


Sasha


Jailer: Immediately when you look at this, it jumps out at you and really grabs your attention! You did an amazing job with the real face (love Bob!) and the outfit on my doll is crazy! I love this a lot. I think you have quite a bit of work to do on your technique, learning how to really define the layers of your shading and making them integrate well together - the bows on the outfit look a little bit flat, and that's because there's not enough contrast between your dark and light layers, so that's something you can work on. I love the makeup on my doll so much, I wish she always looked like that! I would have also liked to have seen more use of the colours you were provided with in your collage, especially on the dress, as I think there's too much purple. Props to you for taking on double the work, although remember that quality is much more important than quantity, and you don't need to rely on making multiple graphics (there were four in last weeks entry, then two in this one) to catch the attention of the judges. Your talent is more than enough to get you through this competition, and possibly take the win, so have faith in that!

Nimka: I think this is magnificent! I first of all love the color scheme because it's so bold and it's like my eyes are eating a visual blackberry it's so great. You are improving so much even over the last 2 weeks and I know you are pushing yourself, it is definitely paying off and I want to applaud you for that. The portrait of Bob is so perfect to me and I love the blacklight type effect. Jailer's look that you created is everything, Im a huge fan of bows so this creation is right up my street. I just want to echo what Jailer said in there not being enough contrast in your layers, because if there were it'd stand out so much more. But really this is so great.


Gabriel



Jailer: I absolutely adore this! Your technique improves each week, and watching you grow is so fascinating and visually rewarding. The outfit is so wrong in all the right ways, I love how the colours and patterns clash - and that pose is everything! What I'm not liking is the fur, I think you have a lot of work to do to improve your fur technique, but I applaud you for trying! The shading on the skirt and top is beautiful, but the tights and shoes look just slightly over shaded; you don't need all these layers to have definition. Also, be careful with head sizing, as the head on this looks slightly too small, but I understand that could have been difficult to get right given the perspective/angle of this. You did an excellent job this week and showed us that you put 100% into your work, which is something I really admire.

Nimka: This is so edgy and cool! It's not my favourite graphic that you've done but I'm liking it! The skirt is my favourite and the platforms too, they look very silky! Just one thing I think that the sizing and proportions is off, I'm getting a bit confused if it's proportioned right but maybe it's just the head. I also wish that you used less layers still haha, you should use less and Sasha should use more. I don't want it to seem as if I'm bashing you though, I'm not and I'm a fan of your work! The stakes are getting high now!



The heat is on, and the flames will only get higher as we fast approach the finish line. Task 4 will be posted soon.
