Nator: This should be a good one, looking forward to some great images. ( 5 years and 3527 days ago )
DML: Why just Navi people? I think the landscapes of the film are amazing and it deserve place in this contest or even a specific contest. Anyway, good luck everybody. ( 5 years and 3527 days ago )
ponti55: D'ughhh... i'm with you CMYK... sigh... ( 5 years and 3527 days ago )

Nator: Funny CMYK I did the same thing when I finally watched the movie. ( 5 years and 3523 days ago )
nishagandhi: very good entries submitted in this contest ( 5 years and 3522 days ago )
jawshoewhah: One thing I noticed is that all the Avatar people are about the same build. Couldn't of anyone made a fat one or even one that's kind of ugly or even old? That would have been original. Most of these entries just kind of look the same to me... well except for the Poser ( 5 years and 3520 days ago )
kaida06: hi! im new here and i wanted to ask a lot of things... but the main thing i wanna ask is how do i level up?...i wanna join some contests but i cant cause they have level thingy.... ( 5 years and 3520 days ago )

Howdie stranger! If you want to participate in this contest, just:
Proffessional.... No doubt... Very awsemome... and realistic..... and its good that you removed the eyes... fantastic work with the ears and nice sbs too...
Hmmm.... you kinda cheated - using the actual hair and ears from the avatar movie. Since you did that, why not try to imitate the lines on the face and give a wider nose. Looks good on first glance, but is it convincing ? .....I leave that up to you...
author says:
@Barnacle...in my SBS show quite clearly how I painted ears and feathers, i says that it's the reference...and as long as the work is accepted, I think it's ok...i can send you the file. PSD to see that I did not cheat with anything.....btw.."I leave that up to you"...
I like this one... it's nice and looks like a Na'avi ( not like I have seen avatar.. I refuse) I have seen the dark crystal and smurfs.. thats enough for me..lol gl Author
Most convincing one so far, ears seem a bit high and hair looks like a wig and eye's are wrong colour and small, skin and nose look spot on tho, nice job
The blue skin is great, but I think the stripes are too dark. Striping on the Na'vi seemed subtler, not so obviously tiger-like -- it's Avatar, not Cats .

Looks nice, though I agree about the piercings and personally I'd really get rid of the fancy twinkly brushes (but then that's just me, if you think it adds something to the image, keep them in). Good luck!
I really like this one. It's very 'real' and I somehow believe it, compared the other entries. The low points for me are the ear, eyes and neck. Could probably use some shadowing.
cute.... and my favorite
this one is very different and i love it
Proffessional.... No doubt... Very awsemome... and realistic..... and its good that you removed the eyes... fantastic work with the ears and nice sbs too...
Yep, it's different, certainly!
very cute
I like it, I just think the ears should be higher. The Na'vi seem to have pretty high-set ears.
Thank u Leanord.... I agree with you... made the changes
The background doesn't do justice to the very nice work on the character. A good back ground would give this a high(er) vote from me.
Something strange about the nose. It might be the sharp lines/edges which just dont go with the rest of the style you seem to be shooting for.
oh wait no this is tom cruises baby...
Definitely more original that what I've seen. GL!
Great work...well done author
Great!
Congrats, he's so cute
