First off, to the three above, I will say this again: Images are judged in isolation. We generally do not look at copyright, artist, etc. etc. An artist can have hundreds of accepted images and still get some deleted if they're below par. Nothing gets a free pass.
All three are the same artist, so a look would be appreciated.
There are enough odd errors to make 'em weird look at. Mostly odd proportions and whatnot. Big hands, weird ankles, long neck. That kind of stuff. I remember almost approving each of those and then getting stopped by odd errors.

post #5104582 is of similar quality to other approved works by the same artist, and I see nothing wrong with it.
The artist has 124/140 approved images. And half of those active images were not approved but instead uploaded by unrestricted users. This is one of the only dynamic pose/actions images by the artist and it shows that he's out of his element when drawing movement.
post #5103274 Why was this deleted? Even got a 'this is poor quality'. Literally the same as the rest of the artist's works.
Bad hands hand feet; strange proportions: super long arms on Super Creek and rather short arm on Tamamo Cross.
Hands are kinda bad in the artist’s other posts as well, but apparently the uploaders or approvers didn’t consider them too bad to approve. None of the other posts have the obvious arm proportions issues.

Thanks for the reply. Could you clarify what specifically is wrong about the movement in the picture, so I don't make the same mistake again?
I noticed that only first of Setz's fine art parodies are uploaded here. I would like to upload the rest.
What is the process for uploading these? The automated tool only sees the first image. So should I just download the four images by hand and put that link as the source, or is there some trick to this?

Using the bookmarklet and uploading from sites supported by it is also always recommended when you're not an advanced user, since downloading an image yourself and uploading could generate image samples or md5 mismatches which can cause your upload to be deleted.
May I ask about post #4979343? I uploaded its siblings one at a time. After 4 approvals I thought to be safe and did another batch, but they all got deleted. I can't see a difference in quality, did I miss something?
I'm usually pretty confident about my upload quality but I have never dealt with a thorough flagging of one artist's works like I have with this one. They represent 15% of all my deleted uploads over the past 8.5 years I've been uploading. I dunno, perhaps my horniness got the better of me this time. In my opinion the animation on these is fairly smooth and void of any anatomical impossibilities while also featuring good backgrounds, interesting lighting, angles, and effects like smoke and camera spray, plus quality voiceover. (I do understand if post #5107398 does not get approved due to the low-res gameplay footage in the beginning and the perhaps overly ambitious camerawork during the actual animated segment, but unfortunately that was the only version that featured the completed scene). The proportions have not been overly exaggerated and mainly fall in line with the depicted characters' original design, except for perhaps the faces which I may consider slightly "westernized" under this artist's style, but still conforming to what I would call an "anime" artstyle, similar to artists like Nyantcha, Kinkymation, and Derpixon.
post #5107409 had a shorter version uploaded by another user 10 days prior that was not returned to moderation until my posts went up, which judging by the identical wording and capitalization on all the flags, attracted the disapproval of one user who flagged them as a bunch. That older post was also related to the infamous Italian senate fiasco and understandably attracted a lot of attention, yet did not receive a flag until my posts brought it under further scrutiny. post #5107392 features the same angle, pose, and voice as its parent post with merely a different character model, but one was flagged while the other was not. The minor bit of clipping in post #5107393 and post #5107395 I feel are not egregious and don't detract from the work as a whole enough to warrant deletion. I do get the impression though that 3D/Blender animation as a whole seems to be subject to stricter evaluation unless it features more realistic style/characters (i.e. FF7 Remake, Nier) in the vein of creators like Lazyprocrastinator. I'd also appreciate some feedback in this regard so I know in the future what to try and share on Danbooru vs. what to simply enjoy on my own.
I have never appealed a post before, but I was probably planning to do so with at least some of these based on the response I got here. I did glance at the wiki page for appealing posts, but is it generally more advisable to appeal within the month to get new sets of eyes on a work, or after 1 month to treat it as essentially a blank slate?

As recently discussed, there are only very few approvers that consider 3D. If we look at posts that didn't bypass the moderation queue, about 1/3 of all explicit post got deleted, while about 3/4 of explicit 3d got deleted. It might not always be a quality issue, some approvers just consider it off-topic.
i'm not sure what happens with these post post #5108381
I understand what it was going for, but it missed the mark.

I personally wouldn't have approved any of 'em. Proportions are weird, the perspective is making me go a bit cross-eyed, and it looks like the background was taken from a 3d model screenshot? Like they made it in kisekae or something.

I'll refrain from commenting on 3d stuff in general since I have a general universal dislike of 3d porn. It isn't for me so I actually ignore it in the queue without voting. I will mention that a vast majority of active 3d porn posts, be they blender or sfm or whatever, are uploaded by unrestricted users. I think the big reason they don't get flagged more often is that they're consistently the top scoring images on the entire site.
But, yes, there are some approvers who believe 3d animation like that is universally off-topic. So here's appeal advice:
It's generally better to wait the month to re-show it to everyone. Those posts as they are now have 16 responses. In the past few weeks, there have been about 20ish active approvers. Not every approver sees every image and some approvers only approve, never clicking No Interest or other responses.
Appealing within the month will at best get one or two new pairs of eyes on the image, if any at all.
Unless the approver response count is in the single-digit, wait the month.

Thanks for your feedback, especially regarding a medium you find personally distasteful. I suppose it's a little heartening if it was less about the quality and more about the form of the art I selected. I guess the inherent disadvantage of 3D art among the mod team combined with its propensity to be uploaded by unrestricted users will always make it a frustrating, inconsistent topic going forward. The main determining factor for a 3D post to stick around is essentially whether any anonymous user feels like involving said mod team via flagging for any reason as vague as a "quality check," since a flagged 3D post is already facing an uphill battle. Presumably the logical conclusion would be to stay away from uploading the medium, which makes me a little sad (because for purely selfish reasons, I both like them and enjoy the serotonin rush of earning fake internet points when my posts do well).

It's worth remembering that 3d porn is listed with explicit furry and cosplay in the upload rules as "borderline" content that uploaders should be extra careful about uploading, and approvers should be careful about approving. This type of stuff just isn't really what Danbooru is for, even if it's not technically prohibited. Looking at what you uploaded, I think its quite high quality as far as 3d animation goes (with the exception of Sara's clipping boobs and the gameplay footage), and I wouldn't have flagged it myself. But even if I don't think they're low quality, I'm not going to approve them unless I personally do really like the posts. And they're just not a type of porn that I like.

Oh thank you, I was actually not aware of this. This certainly would have changed my decision on uploading some of these. The extra painful irony is the fact that I linked someone the uploading guidelines wiki page earlier today in a comment regarding sourcing and tagging posts. Wow, I feel foolish. EDIT: Upon further review, the Upload Rules and Uploading Guidelines are separate pages, but point still stands it's in documented guidelines. Well either way, I'll try to be extra judicious regarding this type of content going forward.
I understand what it was going for, but it missed the mark.
well i understand that the posts no are better but either bags, can be neutrals o good for some peoples, but i don't understand why are deleted... i'm so sorry if exaggerated a bit
