: Well this isn't Ellery, this is another person so you shouldn't expect him to be completely identical to her, much less compare him to her. You should analyze the whole pick alone as it's own individual. And to say to move away from painting isn't criticism it's just throwing an opinion.

Candidate #4
: This isn't that great either. Pretty much has the same flaws as Candidate 1's sample + the bland coloring and even less resemblance to the character itself. Currently Candidate 3 is still the most promising. Hopefully he gets hired soon. Also thanks for adding that extra note regarding the down-voting. Maybe now haters will stop raging with the down-votes.

: It's understandable that not everything will be perfect but that doesn't mean it's an excuse to have someone that can't make a picture to depict properly the body and faces of the characters especially in a picture that aims to show those said characters having sex. The coloring may not be the best. Ok it's fine that can easily be improved upon. The shadowing might not be on par with Ellery's. Once again it's perfectly fine. They can improve on that too. But when you can't get the body and faces of the characters to look right than that's no good. Everyone keep's saying this did the coloring better etc. What's the point of him coloring right if the characters look very awkward and nothing like the actual ones and I'm mostly referring to the girls here since they are the most important. This is just barely better than what FairyTail's artist is offering at the moment but nowhere near Ellery. And again the coloring process, shading etc are things that can easily be improved upon. But in terms of body anatomy and facial expression as well as the face overall is something you need a great amount of time. Candidate 3 may have done it as a painting but at the very least he can do the face and body correctly for the most part. Why not give him a shot at improving on some normal line art drawing since I'm pretty sure he's more than capable of doing that considering how hard it is to make a painting which doesn't work around line arts that much usually. That's really what I don't understand. You got number 3 who can do for the most part right and than this one or the other that really don't shine. And people are willing to give a shot to the mediocre ones just because the only one that tops them on what matters felt like doing something more impressive like a painting. In terms of these kind of pictures the most important aspects are how good the faces and body are depicted. The coloring, shading etc are only second to those mostly because unlike the key elements the latter ones can be improved with minimal effort, of course assuming the artist is willing to work hard to improve them as well. And seeing as how number 3 went for a painting it's pretty clear he's more than ready to work hard since painting is no easy feat to pull off.

: It would be really great if they remove the Reply rating system since I see a lot of haters just abusing the thumbs down button because there are others who support this sample. Also take note what the admin said "Please share your reviews, ideas, suggestions, tips and criticism on the comments." At the very least say why you disapprove of this sample in order for them to have something to work on improving for the next stage.

Candidate #1
: So they said when FairyTail PiXXX started off about the artists there and look how well that turned out. In my opinion you need someone who can do the basics right from the very beginning as coco pointed out. Namely the body, which isn't the case here. It's not well drawn. In a nutshell this is the way the samples are at the moment from my point of view. Candidate 1 only nailed the color palette choice ( as in the colors picked to be used not the coloring itself since the coloring itself doesn't respect the boundaries of the line art ). Body dimensions are wrong, faces are drawn very awkwardly and do not manage to closely resemble the characters it tries to portray ( and I mean the human face of the girl not Mayuri since his face isn't one of a normal human and thus can be taken some big liberties with it, but even so he looks way to creepy as it is ). The details are non-existent ( pussy lips are nowhere to be seen and by the least bit of evidence indicating she has a pussy, namely that little red dot, it's clear there's no sense of detail there, also no inner lines in her hair to indicate multiple threads of hair for a more natural, realistic look, no eyebrows, no genuine facial expression on her face, Mayuri's lower half is way too far away from the position his upper half is located, even if he's supposedly bending his lower half outwards the resulting angle wouldn't be so big, his hands are extremely small almost half the size they should be etc. ). The line art is very crude, there's no smoothness to it. If you look closely at it you'll notice it has many interruptions. Candidate has a better sense of body proportions, still not good enough but way better than Candidate 1, the faces are drawn well enough, he did manage to give away some facial expressions on the characters in his sample. All in all Candidate 2 delivers better than Candidate 1 on more key elements. His only biggest flaw is the coloring on his behalf and the line art thickness which varies between too thick to too thin. Candidate 3, yes I know it's a painting pretty much, it's never been done before, but I say in art you gotta leave prejudice aside, so let's just look at it like any piece of art, with an open mind. Ignoring the fact it's a painting he clearly delivered the best facial expression, the character clearly has an emotion there, the body proportions are spot on, the details are good ( the cum looks natural with a liquid for to it, the hair is done well, being shown to actually be affected by gravity considering the angle her head is seen having and also the way it rest upon the sheets there. The coloring is good, the colors blending well with each other making the whole pic look more natural and doesn't scream that much "I am just a drawing/painting with nice colors". Also the shading is very similar to the way Ellery did it so that's a plus in his favor. But of course there are some flaw there too. And no I'm sorry but being a painting isn't a flaw, it's another form of art. The real flaw there is the fact that the tones of the colors used could use some work. And while I might agree with some about seeing Candidate 3 do a sample normally with line art instead of painting much in the form of how Ellery did them I think for someone to do a painting the way he did is extremely hard and by doing so it's proof that there's potential as well as an already good knowledge on art to help him along the way. So I say if HK needs an artist at the moment it is Candidate 3 for proving he has a mastery of the basics of what art here demands to be met.

Candidate #3
: Seriously? Still thumbing down any posts that support this sample? Seriously guys just stop it already. If you disagree with any that support this sample at the very least give good reasons why instead of rage thumbing down and voting against the sample ( and by good reasons I mean something aside from something better than "it's a painting and I don't like it". That way the candidate will at least be able to get some proper constructive feedback because honestly just saying you don't like it because it's a painting doesn't say much really aside that you're dismissing everything at first glance.

: I know it's pretty sad. It's ok to hate it, after all everyone has the right to hate and critique. But so far none of them seem to have given any crucial mistakes that can condemn this sample and justify their hate for it other than " it's drawn like a painting, it's never been done before therefore I hate it". Every single negative response is based around the same unique reason that I already mentioned. The most mind-boggling aspect of all this is that there is this candidate who pretty much nailed it in terms of accurate depiction of two people having sex while also keeping a close resemblance to the actual characters and yet are more willing to give a chance to the other two, who in no disrespect towards them, failed to reproduce the same impressive results by bad coloring, bad body proportions, lack of genuine facial expression, lack of any realistic details ( most notorious the cop-out zipper pussy etc. ) . And why is that? Just because this was painted and not drawn. I really hope in the end HK will realize this one has by far the bigger potential to succeed in Ellery's footsteps and therefore give Candidate 3 the chance he/she deserves.

: It's true the tones are a bit dark but when I said the coloring is ok I was referring to the fact that although it's a bit dark the colors manage to blend well with each other thus they get to look more natural and also you can see that the colors on them gradually intensify so to say which gives the impression that there is light there that affects them as well while in this pic the colors keep pretty much same intensity everywhere giving the impression there are lighting effects there. And I really don't see this sample as close to Bleach. Nemu's body has inconsistent proportions, she looks to young , their faces are nowhere near how they look, and have no facial expressions. Go as far as compare at the very least a Nemu pic by Ellery with this. Her face here doesn't even come close. But as I said before. The pics here are about the characters having sex. Thus the body, face and expressions need to be done well. This one just didn't manage to hit those key elements.

: This has got to be the most far-fetched accusation I've ever read. And really now? Since when is there a thing as knowing "REAL PORN" by just looking at a pic. I get that you don't like this sample it's pretty clear but don't go off throwing accusations like that with no proof. For all we know all Candidate's probably didn't have the background sets that Ellery had when she was working here so they just had to resort to using others. This Candidate could've just used as a background a picture of his own room, one can never know. And really what angles are you talking about in Candidate 1's sample. There's no impressive angle approached there. And that sample has bad coloring ( and I'm not referring to the color palette that was used )and the line art is just too wild and messy. From that I can tell he either rushed it up or he just doesn't have a sense of quality towards the works he's doing. And again the characters look really bad. Bland expression and they look very little to how they should. Again Nemu's face and hairstyle didn't even came close to how they are. And really now if you can't get Nemu's hairstyle at the very least right what can you expect from him when he'll have to do Matsumoto's or others that have a more complex appearance. Not to mention the boobs or pussy which have no details at all and are pretty badly drawn. All in all the only thing Candidate 1 got right is the color palette and nothing else. I understand these are raw samples but still you gotta put some effort into them. This one on the other hand manages to fulfill most of the elements that are required from an artist to do right in pics that should depict characters having sex. The body. It is proportionate, the facial expression is clearly there, the cum looks natural enough ( at the very least you can tell it is something liquid and not just some random white lines ), the face manages to match very closely Orihime's face ( notice the shape of her head which is pretty close to the head shape Tite Kubo applies to his characters ). The coloring is better ( yes the color palette might need some improvement ) but I'm referring to the fact that the colors looks more natural, they seem to be able to blend well with each other unlike the other samples. Also the small details like Inoue's hair. Unlike Candidate 1's or the other one her hair actually looks like it's affected by gravity the way it should as well as the way the hair rest on the sheets which look, yet again, much more closer to how they would in reality. I think that most people agree that this Candidate is the best, even some that have voted for the other samples. I think that the reason they are so skeptic towards this Candidate is because he has chosen to do his raw sample from a different artistic approach ( painting ) which might have created some doubts for them due to this style never being approached before. Still I think it's better if Candidate 3 gets the job since, although he painted this, it's far better in overall quality than the others. This one really has potential and it would be a real loss if he doesn't get the job.

z: don't assume too much as that is mostly what they say about rex, ellery, darwin when they all started the blogs few years ago (they are even traditional artists back then) but after some period of time they were able to workout their skill set and look at them now. a real eye opener knows how to see talent it would be unfair to judge the outcome of this blog because of these few candidate's samples. i believe in every artist, if given with proper guidance and - their skill set can be tapped and improved.

z: for those who are not used with looking at "REAL PORN" notice the background of this sample - it came from a real porn picture then blurred out.. in my opinion, this position was traced from a picture got from a porn site and changed the head and applied some style to make it look like hentai.. so yeh, you praise the proportion on this one but honestly if this artist starts to draw requests from members, he's not the type like #1 who can manage different angles without tracing. no wonder the body looks like western....

Hinamori: As for my opinion on these samples. I will say that I actually like this one more than the other two. Like the guy before me said, the third one looks like it was painted. I think the artist is good, but not Bleach good. I really don't think the color fits the theme. As for choice one, it's alright but I honestly don't care much for it. Hard to explain why not. As for this picture, sure it isn't as detailed as the others but I like this one a lot more. With this picture I see more emotion than the others, and even a lot of Ellery's drawings. Also this one feels more alive than the others. Hard to explain it. As for the art style of this picture I do wish they'd show us more samples from the artists, they said these are raws; it would be nice seeing completed pictures from them so we know what they're capable of, even if the pictures aren't Bleach related, that way we have more to go off of.

z: i agree and disagree on other grounds… a lot don't see bleach in #3 than of #1.. i didn't imply just proportionality but this isn't the way pixxx style is drawn. yes #3 has good proportions but i don't see orihime's body in that…and speaking of elements, i hope you would also see #3 has it's misses in its line-art as well. If these candidates were told to create a sample similar to bleach - then these should portray what is near on the style itself and not their own. how can you say that coloring is ok in #3 when it is too yellow or orange (it doesn't compare to the actual skin tone of orihime).. the reason why ellery's pinup stands out is because the artist based these elements or qualities on the actual style of bleach. in which case - these are things i don't see in #3. I have praises for #2 as the artist is able to draw the facial anatomy close to orihime there - and i think looking at the way it's drawn - i think #3 is more used to different angles than of #2. just my 2 cents...

: So far this one is my favorite. I like the faces. Sure the lines are a little weird in some places and some people may call them "too soft," but I like it. It helps the body actually blend together with itself like Orihime's ear. The outline is gentle enough to where the ear doesn't look like it's a separate entity from the head. The jaw lines are a little to sharp angled though. I like the coloring and shading a lot.The skin tones are also grand. My major problem is with the nipples. I know there are people with puffy nipples like that, and this is really just a personal preference. I mean, puffy nipples to me look like gumdrops. And I just don't like gumdrops. Still, you have my vote.

WolfNRoses: I'd have to say this is pretty good. The bodies are well drawn, the faces need work. And also the nipples look like they don't quite belong where you put them on the breasts which also makes the nipples look too small. The lines are good. Last thing to note is that for some reason the coloring is off in some places if you look zoomed it. Some of this is due to colors going outside the lines such as some red on Mayuri's bottom teeth. But for some reason there's a lot of yellow where there is no real reason for their to be yellow. On the gums between several of his teeth there is yellow. One the purple collar there is yellow bits all throughout even if the places where it doesn't come close to the background or the golden beard thing on his head. And for some reason there's also yellow at the base of his dick if you look close enough, along with yellow in various places on his captain's haori and standard black uniform. I'd have to place this as number 2 in my votes. I like Candidate #2's the best.

Candidate #1
: No not really. Anime style drawing doesn't imply body perfection. Also as someone else pointed out already if you can't draw the body proportionally right especially considering the idea behind the art here than you're no good. Candidate 1 doesn't have any sense of body proportions and there are no expressions on the girl as well as faces being drawn bad ( he didn't even get Nemu's simple hairstyle right ). He missed out on the most important elements in a picture that demands those elements to be right. And also the coloring isn't good. Yes the color palette is good enough but if you look closely you'll notice colors are going through the line art mixing a bit with the other colors. Candidate 2 does better with the proportions than Candidate 1 but is the least impressive in terms of coloring. Candidate 3 is the best since everything is proportionate, the coloring is ok and the perspectives are just as well. The only reason I'm seeing why this is still in a debate is because Candidate 3 chose to do his/her pic as an oil painting style. Maybe next time it'll be better if he does it just as a normal drawing so that people can rest assured he/she's as good as some fail to see.

hatake: To be honest I like this one more than the other ones. I like the way they drew the characters, although I think the lines need improvement. And as for the colors They'd also need improvement. As for the Candidate 3's picture, I find the colors too dark. That one doesn't feel like a Bleach picture. Candidate 1's is alright, but I don't like the way they drew the faces. I prefer the faces in this picture. I'd like to see a few more samples from this person if possible

z: i think what others should take a look is how close and how fine they can compare it to anime art - candidate #3 is not anime style (look at the body - even though it's proportionally drawn - it looks more western not anime. anime body is supposed to be fictional perfect - orihime has big breasts - but it doesn't show in that art... candidate #2 has issues with thick and thin but it's not so bad imo.. candidate #1 - let's say it doesn't look like mayuri but once the artist gets used with the facial anatomy of bleach, this is has more potential.

Vamp: This photo bothers me a lot, and i couldn't figure out why at first. But after a few minutes it suddenly stuck out like a sore thumb. The shadowing is impossible. There would have to be a light source both behind the male to his right and where the artist perspective is. But that cant happen with out one light source affecting the shadows of the other.
