Render looks kinda crappy but it is what it is

Well, I gave it a go. I enjoyed this theme, thanks Kelly

Upon looking at it, I see quite a few flaws, but I'll rectify it next time.

Kelly, don't you think judging your own work could be a bit ... whats the word i'm looking for... biased?

It depends how you handle it as a judge.. if your voting yourself as the best most times theres something wrong. Personally if i where to enter and judge i would be giving myself 7's. Because i think that i can always do better. But if your giving yourself 8s and 9s and 10s. Idk. Depends on the piece as well.

Give it some time, i myself think kelly gave some higher grades to her sig as i would have given. But that happens on every sig she judges and so in the end it doesnt matter.

But give it some time, like 3 more sotw's at least

;if anything, i judge myself LOWER than another judge because i notice all the flaws easier.

8 points plus on each grade is not low at all.. Im willing to see how this works though. It depends on the judges on how its handled.
