Congrats Sauteed Pikachu.

I'm fairly sure I didn't vote in this. Principal and all, but I've showed the entries to a number of my friends and even among them your entry was very popular.

A runner up among them, believe it or not, was fire flower, and I sort of agree. It was simple and basic, but it did the job.

Personally I liked the perler bead one (chrono trigger fan here) but it would have been biased if I voted for it based on that. Ironed well either way.

They also liked the kirby mic entry but agreed that it was far too messy and wrinkled. A good washing and pressed with a book would have done the trick there.

Personally also I liked the bag. I've been working on my halloween costume with lots of felt and I greatly respect the amount of time and patience it takes to cut things properly.

yes, good ironing and a nice clear well lit photo goes a long way to showing your hard work properly. a lot of people spend hours and hours and hours only to take a bad cell phone photo of the work for submission...

Yeah, I suck at framing and taking photos of my work...

And in this case it got put on the back burner after I finished it....that's something I definitely need to improve on for the next challenge!

And THAT (above) is one of the reasons the winner of the challenge should NOT be decided in a poll where the submitters can vote in :banghead: :dizzy: :sigh:

Haha, hopefully, eventually, there can still be some other way of deciding the winner, though I think at this point we're still a bit small for it.

For the kirby mic submission, the picture itself was very good quality, just the fact that it wasn't washed. Actually, the only 'bad' pic I see is the perler bead one because the lighting looks yellow (probably just the result of it being indoors) and even that isn't too bad.
