Dolphin Challenge Tie Breaker

The votes are only between subs 12 and 15. Voting will last three days!

Ok I'm going to be the bad guy here.....
How does 15 work if actually painted on a person? The nose and everything would be in the crack of the eye..... hmmmm
I always get a bit confused looking at practice heads - they put up with alot more then a real person would! I would really like to see it painted on a person to see if the design actually works out.

( I don't know who's design it is - sorry if I've offended anyone!)

I was thinking about it right now... Would it look the same on a real face?

I WASN'T THINKING ABOUT that when I voted-it's a dolphin challenge-so I voted for what I thought was a better dolphin.

I went back and looked I do think it would work on a real person.just would have a void when eye was open -or could move the design up a hair.

don't get me wrong # 12 is great the waves beautiful but thr dolphin in#15 is imho a better dolphin.

I don't know who #15 is- I don't have an entry in this comp. just sharing my point.
GOOD LUCK TO BOTH- all the entry's were GREAT

I think that is a valid point, but not something to judge on since it wasn't included in the rules.

How could we word this for future challenges regarding the practice heads? We can't ban them cause quite frankly it is all some have, but.....just can't think right now.

Täusche ich mich, bist du nicht Nr. 14 oder hast du zwei Designs eingestellt?

Ich hab 2 Designs ^^

this is a challenge for face painting, therefore it has to make sense to pay attention to where you place it on the face (otherwise we'll be painting canvases), I dont think that the problem is the practice head.. just placement.. but this is just my opinion.

I should have said I think it's a really good design!!

Even if it would not concern me, I would say the following to it:
What is that? Now here discussed because of the plastic head?
That is ha like if children argues.

Unfortunate that in such a way to end must.
In the future will not no more go through if for some a so large problem represents!
Excuses please! I was placed happy 2.

Now I'm feeling bad It was not my intention at all to offend anyone. I'm a beginner too and I just wanted to know if the design would work on a real face... Of course it's a wonderful dolphin and you deserve a good place!

please don't be discouraged Kleo! it really is a beautiful dolphin. and 2nd out of 35 entries got to be happy with that! well done!

Kleophea, you shouldn't be discouraged, you are very talented! the dolphin is beautiful, and 2nd place is honorable!
I think that you can only learn from that, we all do things, therefore we all make mistakes. and its Okay, we are humans
plus we are all here to learn! this forum is the best thing that happened to me after i figured out that i want to be a face painter!
so many people who are willing to give info and share. sometimes because its written it sounds awkward, but I always keep in mind that this group is very supportive, and assume that everything here is written with good intentions.

you still should be VERY proud of yourself! you are truly a very talented woman!

Kleophea I love your design too You have a great talent and style!

This forum is a SAFE place to show your work and get advice. The comments made were only meant to be helpful I'm sure. I hope you stay around and keep sharing. We all benefit when you share.

Hugs!

Thank you for so much praise and support! Thanks!
I will try it someone will persuade, which I can paint.
So that this senseless does not come discussion again to conditions. Whereby I find it more difficult plastic heads to paint, because the color cannot be processed well.
On my face I cannot paint so much, since I get red marks on the skin.

I didn't get to vote, but would like to add my 2 cents.
#15 dolphin on a practice head is awesome. First of all the submitter does not give away who it is that painted it, like many who submit painting on themselves or their family. Second the design is theirs and only to be used as inspiration for us...Which means that we can move the design up-down-around. Third the design works on the practice head, and I love the fact that, on a live person, every time the eye opens or flutters, it would give movement to the dolphin. This argument is a lot like saying that if you have a child without a forehead (I have lots in my area) then you can't modify a butterfly to paint on their face. Folks, she had a dummy, and she painted it just right.

If part of the criteria was that the design is lost when the eye is open, then we wouldn't be able to paint some of the ladybugs, the 'eye' over the eyelid and so on.

Had I gotten on in time to vote, I would have voted for 15 because I like what the design brought to the table of inspiration.

Sorry if anyone is offended by my 2 cent comments, I just really liked the submission and wanted to state why from my viewpoint.

Oops, Voting goes on to the end of today the 9th of July. Sorry, I shouldn't have made any comments until the voting was over.

Head lowered in shame, asking forgiveness for jumping the gun.
