Hello Fellow Steemians,

I want to thank everyone that entered the contest and submitted their work. I'd also like to thank all of the viewers and upvoters of the contest post.

I'm sorry to say that I believe this will be my last time running and judging the NSFW Contest as the agreement that I made to run the the contest has been amended and it's not longer equitable for me to do it.

I don't have enough time as it is now to do all that I need to do right now in my life and photography unless I'm making enough money to justify it... So I'm going to have to let someone else take over. I do not know what their plans are for it so just keep and eye out on the discord channel. Also if you have not received your WS from Previous Contests please contact Akrid on the Discord channel as I understand it he will be dealing with the Whaleshares.

I really enjoyed doing the contest though, and maybe at some point I'll start my own if I find a Sponsor or get some free time and maybe do a Split Payout in SBD on the Contest Entry Post with the winners if I have time and the payouts at the time are decent enough for it to be worth everybody's time. So make sure your following me in case I decided to.

But on with the winners of the contest...

This contest was open to Photography, Drawing, Painting, CGI, and the theme was open. I made my selection based onthe composition, color, and general quality of the work basically everything I listed in the contest announcement post. Also if the image was actually NSFW since this was a NSFW contest, also the number of images (up to 3 allowed on submission post) so posts with more images will have a greater chance, and also

This week there was a good amount of entries so at least my last contest was a good one :)

As usual per the contest rules I only reviewed posts that were posted as comments on the Call for Submission posts as per the rules.

Please upvote and resteem this post so the future contest can grow and all of the Artist Submission can get more exposure, and then go up vote the winners posts as well if they are still active.

And the winners are...

#9

Artist: @jackjohanneshemp
Post URL: https://steemit.com/art/@jackjohanneshemp/drawings-of-naked-celebrity-sophie-turner-001
Prize: 10 Whaleshares

Comments: Being a photographer and not someone that draws I have a lot of respect for people that do. Drawing freehand on a tablet is even harder until you master the difference. So while not actually photo-realistic still a good effort. Thanks for submitting.

#8

Artist: @thaiprincess
Post URL: https://steemit.com/photography/@thaiprincess/my-entry
Prize: 10 Whaleshares

Comments: I would have liked to have seen more about who took the image and the creative process. It felt to me like there was not a lot of creativity used and only one image when up to 3 are allowed. You have a very nice body... I'd suggest you find a local photographer to work with and create some art together. :)

Artist: @norwegiansteem
Post URL: https://steemit.com/whalesharesnsfwcontest/@norwegiansteem/nsfw-erotic-art-open-theme-my-entry-close-with-tattoos-201793t22436849z
Prize: 10 Whaleshares

Comments: Self-Portraits can be very difficult especially with a camera phone. Some of my Favorite Self-Portraits that I have done were also some of the hardest shots I have ever taken. So I comment you on your effort as a Amateur Model & Photographer.

#6

Artist: @soulmama
Post URL: https://steemit.com/whalesharesnsfwcontest/@soulmama/nsfw-erotic-art-open-theme-soulmama-edition
Prize: 10 Whaleshares

Comments: As I mentioned in the comments in #7 I know how difficult Self-Portraits can be so I think this is a very brave and worthy effort on your part. I also really like the setting, and the layers and textures in the image.

#5

Artist: @iamjamie
Post URL: https://steemit.com/whalesharesnsfwcontest/@iamjamie/nsfw-erotic-art-open-theme-my-first-shoot
Prize: 10 Whaleshares

Comments: I really liked this series of images... You look great and I like your story about your experience of the shoot. I just wish you had told us more about the photographer.

#4

Artist: @aboesan
Post URL: https://steemit.com/whalesharesnsfwcontest/@aboesan/nsfw-erotic-art-open-my-submission
Prize: 10 Whaleshares

Comments: A very nice Black & White Series here... I love the placement of the model in the Bamboo (I think it is) and how there are layers with different focal lengths. The First image (Above) is my Favorite of the series due to the greater contrast from the darker shadows in the image.

The Top 3 Winners... This was very tough for me to decide since all 3 Artists produce such great work and on a consistent basis.

#3

Artist: @carmineworx
Post URL: https://steemit.com/photography/@carmineworx/whaleshares-nsfw-nude-erotic-art-contests-nsfw-erotic-art-open-theme
Prize: 25 Whaleshares

Comments: A very nice Shibari Bondage series and the 3rd image is my favorite! I would have like to hear more about the process and who tied her up and I know that in-itself is an art form (One that I would like to explore myself.) Great Series though!

#2

Artist: @eyegasm
Post URL: https://steemit.com/photography/@eyegasm/whaleshares-nsfw-nude-erotic-art-contests-almost-there
Prize: 50 Whaleshares

Comments: Another Stunning image by Eyegasm! It's just beautiful work. I just wish there was more of a series and more detail about the process.

#1

Artist: @mrwanderlust
Post URL: https://steemit.com/whalesharesnsfwcontest/@mrwanderlust/whalesharesnsfwcontest-entry---pure-beauty-1504253599-3694293
Prize: 100 Whaleshares

Comments: A beautiful series of 3 images by @mrwanderlust. I love everything about. The location, the model, the lighting just really great work!
