Congrats, you derseve all the places XD Thank you so much!
Here's your comments:

#1 I really like the way you colored the clothes and the faces but I think the hair need a little bit of improvement.
#1 I do like seeing the brushwork in colorings, it adds a very painterly look which I'm fond of. I suppose the background could've been lighter and less saturated to give a more overall cohesive look? But has it's own charm like this too.

#2 I LOVE the way you colored her hair!! it looks amazing and soooo soft! Loved everything from this coloring but the hair was excellent :D
#4 OH MY GOD, everything I repeat, everything about this is perfect, the hair, the eyes, the face AND the clothes and details!!! The clothes seem so real! Thank you for making such a great coloring it was really pleasant to the eyes *^*

Guys, it has been very fun modding this community. But I guess that the anime manga fandom is dying over here at LJ. If it has not dead already. We haven't get much submissions, and voting is very low. Many people used to participate is not on LJ anymore. So I guess it's over for m_c_contest. I do hope that someone can take over the community and do something to change this. I don't know. If you want to become a mod, feel free to leave a comment here.

I'm too old and need retiring now, but still I don't want this community to die. So is there anyone want to mod this community? I've done a horrible job and making this community almost die. I hope someone else can take over the community and somehow revive it, if possible. I know it's hard because almost no colorist reside in LJ anymore.

Leave a comment here and I'll leave the community in your hand. Thank you for reading.


The voting post for round 23 is still here, if you have the time, please vote, just a couple of seconds ;A;

Submission post

Well, we already have 4 submissions by 2 colorists! AND BELIEVE ME THEY'RE REALLY WORTH YOUR LOOKING. Seriously, all the 3 of them. So you should consider submit some if you want to race with these talented colorists, and see what you can really do! The theme is pretty easy in my opinion. At least give them a chance, okay?

I know people are leaving LJ, get bored (e.g: me) but I really hope this community will live on. There isn't any manga coloring contest around anymore, I don't know about deviantart but this community is the only thing left at Livejournal. I can't keep it alive without you. ;A;

Your deadline is around 30th March - 1st April.

Sorry for the late announcement, guys. Is there no one interested in coloring manga anymore? ;A; We only got one entry and you have around 20 days to submit one here. I really don't want this community to shut down, so if you don't want either, please consider submiting something, okay? Thanks.
