I had to go for Propsdue and Scaleyinx.

Scaleyinx's work still had a few anatomy problems, but the colouring was well done and made it appear more complete. Nice work.

Propsdue - great energy in the pic.

and overall, well done to group 2. Alot of competition in this group.

[Doomsmith]

Damn I widh I could have made it through this round. I've been working all of this mandatory overtime at work and wasn't able to do anything....

Maybe next time....or maybe when they do the bottom bracket then I might....

[Scaleyinx]

Thanks everyone for all the votes! :happy:

I wasn't sure how the coloring was gonna turn out, because I took a chance and experimented with a free demo of Painter. Normally when I decide to color a piece, I do it in Photoshop. Good thing this isn't a high res version, ...with all it's ghastly flaws :whistlin: :p ,...I'm sure I would have been voted as the weakest link.

Your color work took it to a whole new level Scaleyinx...It's a beautiful job! And yes I voted for you!...so I'm a little biased!

Hey, thank you for the compliments j gar, and for the vote! Yours turned out great too!... and was one of the ones I had voted for. Everyone is doing such a terrific job, I had trouble picking my top favorites in each group.


:carrot: :carrot: :carrot: :carrot: :carrot:

Five karat salute!!... to all participants, for stepping it up and making this tournament alot of fun!

[pencilartist]

WHOOOO! I'm in last place. YEAH THAT'S WHAT I"M TALKING ABOUT..... :har:


Seriously though folks, my feelings are not hurt. I may have expected a little more responses, but that turn out is fine. The drawing only took me 2 hours anyway. Just thought I would slap something together to get in on all the action the the great talent around these forums. If I have time to participate in the bottom second round then I'll see everyone then. Oh well off to other projects.

Take Care Everyone

A lot of great entries in this group! Scaleyinx's was my favorite, but several of the others were right there. Great job all around, guys and gals.

Just a quick note.
Despite what the poll state all voting closes at 11:59:59 Eastern TONIGHT!
Round 2 will start then. There will be some changes to the voting time in Round 2 so that Round 3 will start BEFORE the weekend of September 9 and 10 (Baltimore Comicon).

ROUND 2 begins as soon as I get all the threads posted early tomorrow morning.
