The reason the works were sent back is that they did not accumulate the necessary votes in the queue. This is usually due to technical issues in the construction of the work, and these issues should be addressed before resubmitting for approval. The WIP forums are a good resource for receiving helpful feedback on your work.

The sprite templates do not look finished? They don't have arms or faces, and there are many anatomical problems. They pixelling is pretty sloppy and could be cleaned up a lotit he outlines are jaggy and vary in width.

The cloud is just an indescript flat shape that has been copied and pasted many times. There's not really a lot to the image, and regardless of the process of creation it's something that really wouldn't require much time or effort to create. A small scene including clouds is fine. Or an image of detailed, voluminous clouds. But as it is, it's rather sparse.

The landscape seems to lack a horizon line. Having the sun in the very corner of the image feels a bit like you're cramming it in there, and the shape in the corner is not particularly indicative of the sun. The independent and evenly-spaced nature of the clouds makes them look unnatural. The green doesn't work as AA to brown. And it's a bit unclear if these are mountains far off, or a jagged Mario-ensue cross section of dirt much closer (as there is no real horizon or reason to have platformer cross-section of dirt/grass).

Again, if you planon editing and resubmitting these works, then getting feedback from other artists (i.e. WIP forum) is advisable.
