Special Guest Juror's Message

Congratulation to all the participants!

I chose the design submitted by Jenya Tkach as winner because it is a good character idea, presented in a brilliant pose with a lot of energy, emotion and a great knowledge of weight and volumes. 

We get a good idea of the characters physics and also of his act and the attitude on stage. I feel very entertained and want to know more about this character. The design has a good balance of strong shapes and nice details like the symbols on the arms combined in the belt. The high quality on all these levels made me choose it as winner.

Congratulations !
