Description
So this is my contest entry for 's contest!
This is my first time drawing Dark Daroach, so that was pretty interesting. For this drawing, I based the background on the in-game battle stage, just making it a little more... menacing, I guess you could say.
Unfortunately, my scanner didn't really like this piece, so I had to do a little digital editing; it may not look the greatest.
Still, it was a lot of fun! 
I know that I should be working on commissions right now - but I couldn't help myself but join this contest.

I wish you luck with the contest and I really love the background! I love how the background is beautifully and smoothly colored! It really makes this entry stand out! The shading here is nicely done! What needs more work are the yellow stars. I know they are part of the background, but try to make them dimly glow. Good job!

Thanks; I'm glad you think so!
The contest has already ended, actually, and I got first place. It was a lot of fun!
My goal with the background was to make it look similar to that of the in-game background, so I didn't even really think to make the stars glow.

It's time for the Judging~! ( I got started with RabbidLover5 now I'm coming over to you. :3 )
This is very original, the boss fight taking place in the exact location and level at the end of the game, you manage to even put some shooting stars in the background, and even did great, not only that but there's even Normal Kirby with no Copy Ability, There are so many words I couldn't find to describe even your drawings, you get a 10.
This is actually very neat, having Dark Daroach's cape drawn well as his feet and hands, even Kirby is well drawn and neat, it is true that this piece can be menacing and even though it may not look the greatest, you did well for the contest and the part that has me interested most is pretty much the background, so many stars, had been a while since I've seen this epic background. However, few of the lines feel kind of strange, I can't help but notice Dark Daroach's hat, but you tried your best, you get an 8 out of 10.
For Diversity, Kirby is very serious and looks like he was waiting for Dark Daroach's attack, well, it is my opinion but the expressions are great, even Dark Daroach looks rather menacing indeed, bringing out his wand and about to attack Kirby with an Ice Beam and pretty much, I feel he is rather aggressive, so the expressions, poses, and other stuff you do~! Alas, although it's not the greatest but you did well, the errors for this are minor but you get an 8.
You got 26 out of 30. Great Job~! ^^
I'm sorry I'm not the best judge but I try my best.

Nami, when I have enough time and either after a few days when everyone had submitted their piece, or when it is getting close to the deadline, I'll be able to judge, I would actually be busy this month and probably the next due to that there's alot of things to do, so in the meantime, do you mind if I add the link to this piece to the Journal to let other contestants know in case?
