Title: STOP
Artist: Ifrit emperor of flame
Description: This is a cosplay of the anti bully theme. Before you all say oc- I tried my best to copy the bully seen in the first image. The stop sign represents the second image. The school back ground is representing every one who has been bullied at school. The dazed man on the ground is a bully stopped by the anti-bully. This is a symbolic gesture only, and in no way condoning any violence. As a message to all- think before you type, your words can hurt too!

Arkzy, I know where you're coming from however, this image was off of a school website so, though it isn't as commercial as StB it is a symbol and though yes, less known or seen, it stands for something. And as for the guild, I'm in that said guild and I've seen malicious comments on entries made simply to just sound rude. We should be mature enough to understand how to treat people with respect. I really enjoy this entry for what it s

The difference between Smoky the Bear and this is that Smoky the Bear is well known, has a name, has a story to him, and is actually a character. This isn't a cosplay of a character but as you said an anti-bully theme. It just seems like you used an image of a character to stick this in the cosplay arena, because of your guild.

I love that you did this Merrik, especially in the cosplay arena where bullying takes place often and is shrugged off by many as just "critiques" or by saying, "it's a contest". Contests don't give people the right to be rude and potentially hurt others with their words. I agree with this as a cosplay since it is a symbol, much like Smokey the Bear. Yes Smokey's been in commercials and etc, but the image you used as your reference was created to stand for something too. Nice one! 5

Thank you Lost- glad you think so, this took a lot of time to piece together. I wonder though, if the dazed bully was too much?
