Let's get this over with so I can enter the September competition.;)

So here, in an order, are those brave few who actualy entered this month:

First of all we have maveristef's photoshoped Roman Worm (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38835436/)

Next we have Cosmico's excellent Morgan, sorry, Gordon Freeworm (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38666548/) (which is going to win).

And coming up next we have Spititylick's Yeehaw! (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38341643/)which is uh, very nice.

And finaly we have Paul power's iconic Four Element Theory
(http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/37712526/)
That's right FOUR entries.

You can't comprehend how much I wanted to bump it up to five with an entry of my own, but them's the rules.

Anyway, you have 72 hours to make your choice.

BETTING BEGINS.

honestly I'm torn between mav's and cosmico's entries. I like both equally....:-/

Wow,cosmico did a great job there...maveristef's wasn't bad either though.

*votes for cosmico*

Power to the Paul!

I prefer Masiterif's actually.

I like maveristef's, i also like Cosmico's. I think P.P's entry is ok. and i cant vote for myself(well, i can but that would be stupid)... mhhhh...
Cosmico's is really detailed and stuff, however its not really Gordon Freeman-like. and it has no colour...
i think ill go for Maveristef, for the great detail on the sword.

Damn this is hard.

Cosmico or Maveristef...

If only I could colour pictures without messing and using the wrong colours...

I think I'll go for Maveristef! Nice shading!

just thought you might like to know that this topic is the six hundred and sixty sixth in this forum

just thought you might like to know that this topic is the six hundred and sixty sixth in this forum ya know? somehow I'm not surprised that milestone was hit by philby :p

I will not vote because this thread is RIGGED!:eek:

I voted for Maveristef, just so I can prove philby wrong.

just thought you might like to know that this topic is the six hundred and sixty sixth in this forum

Not anymore :p

I will not vote because this thread is RIGGED!:eek:
I refute that. The poll is entirely impartial and wholey fair.

I voted for Mister Cosmico. It's nice to see that people are voting for me for once.

What can we say.. your a great artist, you really are....

i got 0 votes. gee.

I like Mav's, yes.

i got 0 votes. gee.

*bursts out in laughter*

I voted for Cosmico because his name was in red so obviously it was the best entry without even having to look at the entries:rolleyes:.

Ok, thats just lame XD

I'm sory Bob, but you seem to have missed tha point.

Spot the difference between the two artists:

*bursts out in laughter*
The correct answer is "Maveristef will grow up to be a much more successful businessman.
:p

honestly I'm torn between mav's and cosmico's entries. I like both equally....:-/

Can't....decide....both...quite...good.....OH HELL

*votes Paul.Power*

The correct answer is "Maveristef will grow up to be a much more successful businessman.
:p

Meh, i dont even want to be a businessman... :mad:

Meh, i dont even want to be a businessman... :mad:*points to the sky* LOOK! it's a bird! it's a plane!! IT'S HIS POINT!!

:rolleyes:

Maveristef and Mr Cosmico both have 14 votes. Hmmm...

Not anymore!

Not to be offensive towards maveristef, but I really can't see why he's got so many votes.

His pictures great, but Cosmico's is amazing.

Maybe it's just because I know photoshop, so I could probably whip up a similar looking picture quite quickly, but I'm absolutely hopeless at scetching.:p

And mav is just catching up near the finish line...

Mr. Cosmico's is really amazing and I feel that his is twice as good as mine, but I really did not like the way the glasses looked. Or it could be the fact that people want to prove to Mr. Cosmico won't win.

Still aint votin'

You had to create a whole new page just for that, didn't you? :(

You had to create a whole new page just for that, didn't you? :(40 ppp > 30 ppp. switch over to the light, you heathen bastage! :p

40 ppp > 30 ppp. switch over to the light, you heathen bastage! :p

I would... but I'm lazy.

I would... but I'm lazy.Oh snap!

I would... but I'm lazy.Quite the contrary... by making that small effort to switch, you save time when having to skip to the next page. Saves time overall. I'm lazy so I switched:p

Well, actually, cosmicos enry was not coloured. and non-coloured pictures are not so great as coloured pictures. and you do need skills for colouring. And i loved the way your entry turned out (mostly the sword) so i think the entry's are quite even, but i like yours more.

That is total bull! I know lineart/grey/black and white art that is TONS better than colored!

Mabye they did what I do; vote for the picture that pleases them most (often cartoonish) than the ugly, but very detailed picture.
Myself, I voted for Cosmico. But I think it was because Philby highlighted his name. Damn his corruptness!

I'll admit that colour can add a lot to a picture (hence the sheer volume of people that voted for Mav's entry), but Cosmico's lineart is superior. And in my mind shape and form are far more important than colour.

We probably shoulda made this a poll where you can see who voted for whom.
And it's 15-all, with only 6.5 hours to go!

I just don't like Gordon Freeman. Or Half-Life.

*slap*

Well I perfectly understand Cosmico's reason for not adding colour. He's colorblind so he could've ended up making it worse.

I WOULD end up making it worse. Remember my coloured comics? :p

Well, thats your oppinion, i just dont like uncoloured art...
But thats just me, everybody has his own oppinion. And some people have the same, thats why they also voted for Mav. :)

That is total bull! I know lineart/grey/black and white art that is TONS better than colored!case in point:

Thank you Aku, that is simply amazing...

Well yes, HK, for instance, could do stunning black and white pictures (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/7954862/?qo=8&q=by%3Ablack-charizard+boost%3Apopular+-in%3Ascraps), but the incredible detail and shading in such pictures (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/17525744/?qo=4&q=by%3Ablack-charizard+boost%3Apopular+-in%3Ascraps) was, if anything, better than colour.
I think cosmico's is bloody good, and there is more detail for sure, but I just prefer the look and style of Mav's. Colour is obviously a good point about mav's, and it kind of put's Cosmico at a disadvantage there, but in my opinion the shading and stuff in Mav's is pretty darn good and very attractive and the shading in Cosmico's doesn't quite bring it up to that level, which is unfortunate.

Edit: Ooooh, and we have a draw folks!

I assume this will be settled in a fair and impartial way?

I am gonna be so rebellious and not vote that I'll rebel against the non-voters and vote for Cosmico! HA! I'M THE BIGGEST REBEL! [/sarcasm]

Well this is going to be confusing... who won? Me and Mav? :p

Time for a tiebreaker perhaps?

Or one of you post the contest thread and the other post the poll.

Doesn't that post violate privacy?

I'm afraid no-one voted on account of me. And I didn't even vote for Maveristef. Plus, even if any votes had come from that, I wouldn't have forced you to vote. You'd have done so of your own free will. It's like saying that during an election campaign, sending rouns envelopes with 'Vote *Insert polotician here*!' on them is cheating.

Even if no one acted on your message, it's still a pretty stupid thing to do.

You've ruined my completely fair and impartial poll for everyone.

You where the one that Highlighted Cosmicos name, which made lots of people think its the best just because of that. :rolleyes:

Hey, all I did was make it easier for people to find the checkbox for the entry that was in all likelyness going to recieve the most votes.

I may have underestimated Mav's entry somewhat due to my familiarity with photoshop.

yes, congratulations. your morals and standards are now officially comparable to that of a politician....you may now shoot yourself in the head! have a nice day! :)
But in modern times, the poloticians have a large say about what someone's morals and standards should be.

violate privacy? if anything, i should feel violated...i've never been to this forum before & i'm getting messages about it. pfft, that guy should be ashamed of himself, and berrated by all!

Here here.

Buffalokid, whether or not you actually influenced anyone is pretty much irrelevant. It doesn't detract from your being a git for doing it.
But in modern times, the poloticians have a large say about what someone's morals and standards should be.And yet somehow they consistantly fall way below said standards.

Time for a tiebreaker perhaps?

Or one of you post the contest thread and the other post the poll.

I would assume, since there's not an obvious solution, that it's entirely up to you.

But in modern times, the poloticians have a large say about what someone's morals and standards should be.from that post you are either young and impressionable or you don't watch the news. politicians are idiots :p all of them, from every country, from every political stand point, in every situation. they're all retarded and have little if any morals. :p

It seems that Buffalo Kid has earned our ire.
Quick, everyone. Stare in his general direction and slowly shake your head to fill him with E-SHAME.

I'm personally fine with the tie. Yay ties.
But if you need to break the tie, than how about some ro-sham-bo?
ROCK PAPER SCISSORS... COSMICO, MAV, GO NOW.

Ashamed for... standing up for what i believe in, attempting to get rid of an annoying tie, talking to some random forum member? I didn't try to force you, y'know. And don't call me 'that guy'. The name's BuffaloKid, at least as far as you're concerned.

I was still trying to stop an annoying tie. Pre-emptively. And it was for what I believe in.

I was still trying to stop an annoying tie. Pre-emptively. And it was for what I believe in.BuffaloKid = Selfish git. If it's a tie then it's a tie. You don't have the deciding vote, so if you'd kindly just feck out of this thread. Your opinion is not more valid than anyone else's.

I was still trying to stop an annoying tie. Pre-emptively.
But it was most likely what you did that caused the tie in the first place. If the poeple ou sent a PM to hadn't voted for Mav, then Csomico would've won.

He didn't vote.

Why are people still posting here? Cosmico should have put up the new thread by now.
