Alright id like to make an announcement i did possibly one of the most rudest things that all artists could agree and this is my first time hosting an art contest and i didn't know any of the unspoken rules among artist's. That rule that i broke was singling out an artist and to draw inspiration from them. You all can withdraw from the contest if you want as this rule that i broke was my fault.

from the beginning, there was something suspicious about this contest, honestly, I'm not sorry that I participated, but I'm sorry for the lost time. I hope you choose what you like. Good luck

Wow, even though I put in so much effort, my work was rejected directly without comment. Stars are given to works done with artificial intelligence, but the work I did with effort and evidence is rejected, nonsense.

Better not choose from sealed entries, they are 99% AI generated, support real Artist who put their time and sweat creating these Designs

Why u rejected my entries #38 #39 they are hand drawn , and you are rating all AI generations why
- 3 months ago
-
Contest Holder - 3 months ago
Im sorry it didn't fit with the vision, im doing my best to find out if the ones that ive rated is AI or not, im doing this by asking for a sketch on paper and pencil to see if they legitimately drew the concept art. Your welcome to try again, just look at the updated details and try to draw inspiration from the top rated contestants concept art!!! But dont directly copy them add your own twist to it as well!!!

I second what Antonina Q. said... have them drew it on different poses/angles (pencil/tablet sketches). Beware of chat baits. :P

Ai artists who provide "evidence" with fake sketches, fake screenshots are really scammers. There are no other words to describe them.

I suggest you to ask for a wip or even better ask for several poses of the same subject he/she made, there you will understand if it's Ai or not.

Also you can peek at their portfolio page, if no other similar works, chances are they are scammers, fake designers. By statistics, pakistan, india and bangladesh are the top contributors of Ai generated designs and pirated images..
