Judges by abosz007

JUDGING
Judging has Accuracy and Impact category. Close attention is paid on the background, correct tack and rider attire and pose of the horse to
picture a typical movement for the class. Note that the angle does not have to be distorted to score high, it just has to suit the composition and underline the movement nicely.  Style points should encourage staying true to your gallery’s style whether it be realism or comic. Enjoy!

Accuracy Points:

• Location 0-20 

• Tack 0-15

• Attire 0-10

• Movement 0-5
• Adding Christmas Decoration: +3

(please keep it only red+gold or blue+gold. no colorful lights only white/gold)


Impact Points:

• Captured the Atmosphere 0-10

• Balanced Composition 0-5

• Choice of Angle 0-5

• Recognizable, Well-developed Style 0-5

• Gallery Standard 0-5

(the entry doesn't have to excel previous pics, but should keep that standard)


Extras:

• Detailed Extra Artwork  5 points 

(Full body -or interesting angle to excuse the chosen cuts, colored with at least 50% self drawn background/well blended)


• Sketchy Extra Artwork 2 points  (Half-bodies, uncolored artwork) 

Max 3 extra images counted per entry!

Extras count if either rider and/or horse is pictured during the event or your rider during the Christmas Ball. But may not be double-used. 

For Example if your rider enters two times during the show, your 3 extra images won't count for both entries with that rider, but needs other extras.
Make sure you link the extra in the entry where you want it to count!
