🥁…and the winners for the FORCE PoseChallenge are… ✨🏆✨

🥇 1st Place: 𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹_𝗰𝗮𝘆𝘀𝘀𝗵
"Great job pushing the pose to a new level of elegance and flow. All the changes elevate the pose to a new level of character and story while using the reference in respects to FORCE and function!"
- Mike Mattesi

🥈 2nd Place: 𝗡𝗶𝘅𝗦𝘁
"Excellent work. Great read on the pose and good silhouette. Kept the pose balanced even when you exaggerated it. I like how you kept the thumb moving over the outstretched arm and yet dodged any potential tangents. Walked a fine line there very well."
- Mike Mattesi

🥉 3rd Place: 𝗗𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿𝘆𝗮 𝗗. 𝗩𝗶𝗷𝗮𝘆
"Clear silhouette, pushed the pose beyond the original and kept the balance working. I think the narrative pushes in a different direction than the photo ref but I appreciate the new direction. Good work!"
- Mike Mattesi

Congratulations to our top 3 winners and thank you to @michaelmattesi for collaborating with us for this challenge and sponsoring the prizes! 🫶

Remember to Stay Animated! 💚
