Mystical Rain (By rika23) ---point 9
well I had to confess that I underestimated this wall, full view made me realize that I was wrong! it was well made
wall!
it's composition, idea, and bg color very apt for mystical rain title!
well done!
[Timeless R.a.i.n] (By Sakura-Dust) --point 7
Everything is fine, I mean composition, creativity(I like the rain water at the bottom)and text too image is going well
with the mood of the wall.
[Silent Tears of a W.o.m.a.n] (By Sakura-Dust) -- point 10
I 've already explained my reason in the previous pm!I really like the idea of the wall, very well made
wall.
Waiting for the Rain (By Akira-san) --point 7
This is neat and clean wall, I like the clarity of the wall, I am little disappointed by the brightness of the image
though! but over all good wall!
Day (By Akarix) --score 5 (For it's neatness!)
Everything about this wall is vague, I mean look at the wall title is rainy day not a single drop of water is touching
the image and also bg is not carefully planned!
Colourful Rain (By o0Beginner0o) --score 8
This wall really surprised me! or is this portrait qualify for this "WALL" competition, well I don't know
for sure about this work of art!
I really like the details of the gown, well I had to give credit for it! original art should be encouraged!
well I am little displeased with the portrait, it should be in landscape size , this is a wall competition, alright!
I gave point becoz of the original art!
mirror of soul (By Steffimon) --6
Idea of the wall is good, and also I like the title of the wall, I am not entirly happy with the moon and image somehow
I feel they are not looking part of the wall!
I give point for the idea.

Mystical Rain (By rika23) --- 5/10
[though the colours and all are beautiful and all, the rain does not really lok like rain, more of like she blowing some
sprinkles around and all, the wallpaper does not show anything much, more on the general kind of wallpaper and concepts
she's been working on for quite awhile, so she should try some other stuff as well, though the effect of gradients
was really nice~ ^-^]
[Timeless R.a.i.n] (By Sakura-Dust) -- 5/10
[it's only an okie wallpaper i should say, the scan for some reason does not really blend in that well, and the sky
is rather weird and out of place, the scan seems to be floating rather weird indeed, though the concept and layout was
not bad~ ^-^]
[Silent Tears of a W.o.m.a.n] (By Sakura-Dust) -- 6.5/10
[though it shows a little originality, the background concept is quite simple, the text does not really go along as
well, cause of the fonts.color and everything is okie, it shows simplism, i think that it should have more depth to it,
and show more originality~ ^-^]
Waiting for the Rain (By Akira-san) --4.5/10
[well, rather simple wallpaper as well, i think the tree there is just out of place, the concept and all is okie, but
the tree does not seem to blend in, other than that it;s quite alright, but it seems rather not much effort put
into...it just like a stock at the back, and than add some lighting effects and all, layout is quite alright, but a
little empty at the back.]
Rainy Day (By Akarix) --4/10
[well i love the texture and the gradient used, but it's a rather simple wall and nothing much.
the background is just sort of textured, by using like wind/tagger and blowing in the directions to give that effect, so
nothing much really.]
Colourful Rain (By o0Beginner0o) -- 7/10
[lovely doujinshi, love the colours and all, concept is quite alright, layout, some parts are a little empty, but a
really nice doujinshi and lots of effort put into drawing/colouring and shading~]
mirror of soul (By Steffimon) --3/10
[well dun really see any much rain around...layout is quite messy, though it might be a water reflection, i dun like the
leaf brush it's sort of messying up the wall, and directing the attention away from the original concept of the
rain instead, since the topic is the rain, it should be empathesised on. not the reflection or the leaf in the case of
this one, so yup.]

[Silent Tears of a W.o.m.a.n] (By Sakura-Dust) -- 5
Waiting for the Rain (By Akira-san) -- 7
Rainy Day (By Akarix) -- 2 (In my opinion, there seems to be too much rain, and I think it's falling too diagonally. Also, the character should blend more with the background. The way it is, it stands out too much).
Colourful Rain (By o0Beginner0o) -- 9
