Reasons:
Oh god. I'm pretty sure no one had to guess. Askia-Sama's submission was really good. What I like most about her entry was the shading. I really do like the shading on the picture. It really does look like something that you would see from someone who's popular around DA. I've also loved the way Askia-Sama drew the eyes on her characters. Don't know why.
I really do enjoy her art. It's original. I really do like this picture. And the fact that this was the only entry that wasn't colored in at all I liked most about it. You can actually see what kind of abuse Kiri went through when he was little. Also on the fact that I really like the was his clothes are drawn.
Sheeta's and Jessy's entries were close, but Sheeta got third because it wasn't so bland. D: I did realize, and so did Sheeta, that there were a lot of mistakes in the picture and all. I've also liked the way Sheeta drew the blushies and the eyes on her entry. She's famous for her blushies. 8D But I still think that she should have put more work into the hands.

Your picture was really good, and it's not because it was an Inuyasha fancharacter either. It was just that the picture was really bland and there was no emotion in the eyes in my opinion. I think that you should have tried to add some sort of shading to the picture to add a little bit more emotion. It's just one of those things that bother me on some people's art.
Like you've said, not a very good peice. This is my opinion, but more time could have been spent on it or something. It's not that I don't like MS Paint or anything, it's just that the thick lines on it are a pain. This is just another opinion, but I think that you should have used thinner lines on the picture.


Well Good Luck to you all in my next contest!
End of Story.
