never closed this competition but whatever,, got to judging ?? and it was fairly easy with three forms (bless). narrowed down the forms to two after a bit; those forms happened to be vox and shatter's forms. before i get into anything with the other forms, foxy your form was great and i do love that song; but to be blunt, there were a few things that bugged me and tipped the scale of cons to pros. they were minor things though and i was probably just being a tad bit picky... so dont beat yourself up over me and my pickiness. anyway. i wish you luck in the future comps to come !! now, for the last two forms. not much to say at the moment; except that i enjoyed them both to the point of which i had to bring in some guests to help me. gonna keep users anonymous, if you somehow know who helped me here i ask that you dont call them out.



Shatterhowl - Really enjoyed how it tied in with Davey, I'm sure Davey appreciates the idea of water. However, I felt some things were left untouched. Parts of his personality left me wondering (like why he would lie to others, and why does he dislike other people?) and some of the way the form was set up kind of pulled my attention away, some things didn't really make sense. The art was incredibly adorable but felt a bit generic- like the standing pose. It didn't give me a sense of his personality.
There was a mention of space, and the title of 'space kid' prepared me for a rpw who has something to do with space: an astronomer, wanna be astronaut, the like. However, nothing was really expanded on, so it left me blank on why he had an interest (or perhaps disinterest?) in space.

Vox Nihili - I enjoyed the content of the form. There was extra relationships added in, and some of the relationships made me intrigued and want to see how they would unfold. Adding a mix of relationships gave him a more in-depth feeling.
The personality and second-hand commentary was great. I enjoyed the 'outside' and 'inside' sort of look. I enjoyed the art as well, as it showed personality (specifically in one, I enjoyed how it was portrayed) and helped tie your form together with the coding.
The thing I have to comment here is there's some things left out (not a lot) but it leaves me a bit blank here too. The personality having cliff-hangers is good for a form, but some questions I had were what other challenges does he face? He struggles with his inner turmoil, but what about the issue of the spoiled-ness and any other things?





Shatterhowl;;
Pros::
-Generally seems to fit quite nicely with the concept I assume Davey's relative would be; water loving with a general aloofness.
-Lots of visible effort in the layout in particular, I can't view it properly due to not being on a computer, but I bet it looks good normally.
Cons::
-The general grammar bugs me? It's nothing too major, though the wording of the sentences seem odd, though I don't really think this can taken as a con due to it probably being their writing style. Though to make this a little more relevant again, the form's ordering is a little odd at first, as it answers the form's question before jumping into Devon originally not liking the water. [Which is a creative idea in terms of character development, and the form flows reasonably well after that which are more pros.]
-The form's title, and beginning aesthetic honestly make little sense to me, I can't see any relation to Devon's character and space, or the meaning of Euneirophrenia.

Vox Nihili;
Pros::
-Both good and detailed character development which again fits the general concept, but with a twist as it has Alec liking water only when it's convenient for him/he has a reason to. Relationships are explicitly explained too, adding to character growth.
-Form is well constructed and pretty much everything has a place. [Shattered glass pictures and lyrics are a little obscure to me though.]
Cons::
-I can't shake a feeling that the original question required was slightly avoided? I mean later it does implicitly imply he dislikes water in general, but still.
-Slight aspects could've been built upon; examples being Alec being a basketball player, or maybe even his adoration for cats.

Personally I lean to Vox, but hopefully this all helped a little.





I think I would have to go with Vox Nihili for this one. I really like both the forms, and can see why you are struggling between them, but I think Vox's is a bit more in depth, and helps me really see who the character is.



the final winner in the end was vox; and just to throw my own opinions in as main judge, i feel like youre gonna take great care of aleks alec. im really ready to see how you grow him into his full potential, your form to me was a whole tease almost ? so. ill be lurking around for more on him. shatterhowl, i guess in the end it did come down to mostly character (again) and it did feel a bit weird with the title 'space kid' when the form didn't ever touch on the space topic. i did, personally, enjoy the little skit at the beginning though because davey was pretty on point. nice nice. i think if your form explained more though ? you would have been a killer competitor. like i said to foxy though, good luck in future comps !!

that was pretty much a close to this post; none of the art in other forms has to go to the winner and feel free to keep it to recolor or something around that. if you have any questions/concerns/et cetera, my pms are always open to them.

Aahhh, wow! Thank you so much! :> This is such a nice surprise considering I was in a not-so-happy just a little while ago. I'm super excited to develop him some more. I also appreciate the feedback you gave me — I will keep that in mind for future competitions. c:

Thanks for adding me, too. <3

Shatterhowl & Foxy: Both of your forms were super cool (both made me p nervous, a-aah), and I wish you both the best of luck in future comps!

congrats!! You can have my sketches, but the one with spatium, i'd appreciate if you'd crop him out ;v;
You can digitalize them too if you'd like, just credit me with the original lines/sketch weep. tbh don't know how much it would go with your personality //didnt get a chance to read it// but ye
