Well, I actually LIKED Kantuu. In fact, I think it was the best of the holos. I like his pensive pose, and the planets/meteors behing make for a very striking scene.
So, my comments in order of preference:
1. Kantuu. See above.
2. Dvron. Like that dark costume.
3. Chu. Lovely jewel mountain. And a very striking pose.
4. Chuck. Sorry, he's not doing it for me this time. The male reject.
5. Supergirl. I actually like how you portray the air movement because of the heat. Nice.
6. Nightwind. I've been such a supporter of her, until now. But in this holo her pose is too artificial. Did not like it.
So, Kantuu and Chu as winners, Chuck and Nightwind as rejects.

Sarya....giggled? The Emerald Empress giggled?? This was probably the funniest judge scene I've seen in all of Sketchy's contests!! I laughed literally to tears!
Emerald Ethel is....scary!
As usual the holos are great and in this case I have to admit I enjoyed some of the backgrounds a bit more than some of the contestants.
Anyways, my picks are:
Win: Nightwind (a perfect, fairytale-like scene) Dvron (even though his costume seems a bit drab in comparison to the rainbow, the scene works and blends very well)
Reject: Chu (it's a beautiful scene but Kara's holo blends both the character and the background in a very powerful scene, so I couldn't reject Kara) Kantuu (the blue seemed to me to clash with the rest of the holo)

Supergirl. While the general "shape" of the holo is quite good, this holo could be better. Kara Z, I'm waiting for you to break out, to really bring it! Get a little Satan Girl if need be, even super-good girls can tap into that diva energy.
Chuck. I like the pose: friendly, welcoming Chuck. Natural. But I think he's doing "big guy in tight outfit = funny" again, and I've already made my feelings on THAT clear.
Nightwind. I find this pose odd. What is she doing?
Kantuu.Whoa. In his previous holos, he's had such presence. Now he's a dude standing at the edge of a crater. Look at him, he looks like he's thinking I've had such presence in my previous holos, and now look at me, I'm standing at the edge of a crater. Director!!!!
Chu. Cheesy, over-the-top pose. WTF...of space!
Dvron. Smart choice in costuming: contrast, not compete with the scenery. Rather basic pose works nicely here. (Take note, Chu.)
Winners: Supergirl Dvron
Respond least to: Chuck (I warned you!) Chu
On notice: KANTUU. Dude. Don't let the admiration of the Emerald Whosits go to your head. Going from full-tilt space-boogie to Dryadian stroll-pace overnight? I almost -- and probably should have -- voted you out this round.

Gosh, it looks like I might be breaking a few ties today... I'm going to ignore the results and comments for now so I don't get biased.
Comments:
Chu
Looks... Her body language suggests she might be dazzled, but the face says she's more bored. But she does look very graceful.
Dvron
Hm, he looks confident and all, but it's not really doing much for me. The scene is good, but Dvron kind of bores me.
Kantuu
Now this is what I'm talking about, Dvron. Kantuu also has a simple, relaxed pose, but it's more... striking, somehow.Maybe it's in the tilt of the head.
Nightwind
I like the outfit and 'do, but the pose struck me as odd at first. It would make more sense if she were using her powers (which doesn't seem to be the case) or if she were trying to claim Krypton for Earth or something. I half expected to see something jumping up at her from the ground. If the pose had had a "story" behind it I'd easily put her in #1 though.
Chuck
I like the pose and the smile. Chuck just looks so HAPPY and welcoming! Course, would be nice if he didn't show off the bully too much because Chuck doesn't NEED to go skintight to get people's attention. The smile and the charm are enough.
Kara
I like the "surprised" look she gives off, but it's kinda artificial. Something's missing. I think if she were solemnly watching the falls instead, it'd all be perfect: Kara serenely enjoying home while her cape and skirt billow with the heat, but she doesn't mind 'em at all. Something like that.
Okay, this is really tough.
Girls:
It's tough, really. Kara's going home for me. I'm not sure who should win, though. On one hand, Chu is interesting and elegant. On the other hand, Nightwind has some more surprises for us, I'm sure. Ooooh this is tough. I'll give this round to Nightwind because the whole thing just seemed to come together more.
Boys:
I guess I'm the only one who didn't like Dvron, but I'm still going to bump him off. And I vote for Chuck to win.
