I'm really sad to see this come to such an abrupt end. I really loved everyone's entries and creative stories. I wish we could have kept this going until the end. Life sometimes gets in the way and it sucks! :P

Thanks to Ava & Heather for judging with me each round and continuing to be awesome judges.

You won't see my comments or scores this round as life has caught up with me as well, but I want you each to know that you all did really well and I wish I could see these to the end!

Ooooh cliff hanger! I love your story this round, my favorite by far! I’m just dying to know what’s going on here, and I’m in love with the way you’ve twisted Hansel and Gretel so brilliantly. Your picture is really nice as well; the set has detail without being busy, especially with having the pictures on the desk. That’s a great touch. My one problem with it is that when I saw the picture it looked to me like the woman was hitting on him and Bentley’s just kind of like, “Oh gosh, please don’t…” I’m not getting the sinister vibe from your picture as much as I would like. That’s really the only complaint I have about it, though. I so want to know what happens next in the story and where Adrian is! Awesome job this round, Lidi!

Oh, oh it's the house. I wonder why Adrian's pictures there, you done really good at changing this part of the story up as well and I can't wait to see the climax.

Poida, I think it is my favorite entry from you! I really love your story and how you took the original tale and put it in there, and your picture is by far my favorite one that you’ve submitted. Your quality looks great, and the effect you put on there with Ben is just so cool! Your set looks good as well; it could be a little bit more interesting but the textures are realistic and I like how it doesn’t take attention away from Kyra. The boots look a little…off to me for some reason, like her feet aren’t really on the floor, and I think that a different color for the glow would have been a good idea because the blue is a bit distracting and looks out of place. My biggest thing, though, is that to me it looks like Kyra is attacking him with that knife, which she’s not supposed to be doing, so you lost a couple of points in story/photo cohesion. Otherwise, I think you did a brilliant job!

Poida I really enjoyed your story this week, I did worry in case it was like last weeks but this one was so good it had me captivated to find out why she was sort of drugging him. The photo is creative and really well presented. I love the glowing books and how you showed his friend so it was what he seen and what the reader as an outsider would see in the situation. Great work.

I felt like this round your story was just a bit of a filler chapter. It didn’t intrigue me all that much unfortunately, and I still wanted to see some representation or even some foreshadowing of the giant that it so important to the story, but you did a good job of answering some questions for the reader before they became distracting, so good job there! I like your picture this round as well. The set looks amazing a super realistic; your quality would be perfect if the skirt of Brenna’s dress wasn’t bent like that from the pose! I really like that smoke effect or something you’ve got going on in the background, and Edge looks amazing as always. The lighting is awesome, too- dim enough to make it spooky, but not so much that you actually can’t see anything. Great job!

Oh I'm so excited to find out what edge could be and what specifically the sisters are. I love how this is the second time you have had me on edge waiting and we'll I can't wait! I also love your picture well done.

Hm, I have mixed feelings about this. Once again you’re killing me with a cliffhanger ending! I thought your story was great as always, though I do think you could have drawn it out a little bit longer and built more suspense. What’s really getting me is the black jagged thing on the side of the picture. I realize it’s supposed to be a hellbeast, and I know that would be a hard thing to edit, but that’s really a letdown for me. It looks like something from a comic book, and it’s kind of surprising to see when your other pictures have looked so realistic. I think this could have been done better; maybe just show Tommy coming in and then a menacing shadow in the corner with red eyes and a sinister grin or something like that. I like the contrast of the set compared to last time, though, and I think Gemini looks great. Ready to fight! :D Good job this round!

Ante I loved this story and how tommy followed her in, it leaves me wondering what's going to happen. The picture fitted but wasn't the best I under stand the hell east is 2D but on your picture it's just black no texture at all which is a bit of putting.
