I am correct in saying that we do not rate our own works, right?
That is correct.

Jokku * The issue with drawing the Vader mask is that it is such an iconic image that we all automatically know what it's supposed to look like. While I immediately recognize it as the mask, I feel it lacks several details that could've made this a winning entry. I also feel you limited yourself with the characters you used, such as the extensive use of '/'. I think if you practice more on your angles and character variety you'll have a lot of success.
Long Hair * I love your BB8.
I know you utilized shading, and while the theory of it is good, in terms of the order of characters, I do not think it represents a spherical object. I would have perhaps extended the last three lines of shading to reach further left, as the under side of a sphere will typically be darker considering where you have placed your light source.
Cyanid — I think this is a very decent logo when considering the size restrictions you have given it. However, I feel it lacks quite a bit of detail and character variety, leaving you with rather faint lines that get somewhat lost within the period spacing. I think making it slightly larger will give you the opportunity to fully utilize the characters and make it stand out more.

. Yeah, I've always had trouble with shading, even when I used to draw in real life lol. I'll continue working on that.
I haven't gone through the drawings and rated yet. I'll do that in a few minutes.

`·¸Mustafar Battle¸·`·¸·`·¸6.5/10
It doesn't have a lot of detail, but the figures' contours are nicely done.

`·¸Darth Vader¸·`·¸·`·¸7/10
Good perspective, nice use of shading, just doesn't have a lot of detail outside of the face part of the mask.
Cyanid
`·¸Tie Fighter¸·`·¸·`·¸5/10
The drawing is pretty simple, but I like the perspective, and the outlines are good.

`·¸Darth Maul¸·`·¸·`·¸9/10
I really like the amount of detail and your use of characters. The bottom third is kind of confusing to look at; it might have helped of the black part of his face was distinguishable from the red, maybe by using alt spacing or something (you'd probably know better than me
).

Weird question and completely off-topic, but are you the person that used to be in RSMVs back in the day?
My apologies if you're not, I do remember one of the popular users being called 'Long Hair' something anyway.

Yep, RuneScape was a good game.

I know Cyanid also made a point of character alignment, but on my screen the characters do line up. I am using Mozilla Firefox, 100%. On my screen, the right side of the face is slightly oddly shaped, but it coheres with the image reference that I used. :/
EDIT: Also, Page 8, Post 10 is my official entry. I know the split image does have alignment issues.
