May Fan Art Battle - VOTE!!
this is a damned toughy.
Gonna have to go with projectionist though, it was just a great idea and well executed.
honorable mentions to tricky tacky, was great to see a finished picture. and lousy day did another great job .
everyone should be proud of whats there though. they are all great pictures.
but the real winner was TA he made out like a bandit :P
This was very difficult, there were many excellent entries this month. My vote goes to:
Projectionist's recreation of "Nighthawks" by Edward Hopper
With a 3-way tie for 2nd Place going to Juggertha, Lousy Day, and Tacky Trickey.
Tacky_Tricky, with Alex a very close second.
Lousy_Day
He really conveyed the literal "classic" feel.
If I were voting for prettiest, I would pick Tacky_Tricky.
Lousy_Day wins my vote, though Projectionist came really close.
grrr so hard to pick...
but I have to go with Lousy_Day. It looks so classic yet fits so well. Projectionist, Alex, Foo and Tacky Tricky were right behind.

Slag Heap: Why you hurt Guardian!? Guardian no hurt you!
This is horrifically hard. I was so sure I was going to pick Projectionist.... until Tacky_Tricky came along. I LOVE that he captured the beautiful feel of the art neuveau original, definitely capturing the spirit and adding the CoX character..... argh.....
Eeeegh....
O.O
Tacky_Tricky!
Oh my good lord.
Projectionist's version of Nighthawks is simply -AMAZING-
I was just browsing these forums before school, and I am instantly a fan. Nighthawks has always been my favorite painting, but even with that bias, that is just a beautiful rendition.
My vote all the way, Projectionist!
I consulted my Warhammer 40k dice collection this month, after whittling it down to just 6 entries.
30d6s went in. It took a while, and because I was trying not to be loud, it wasn't near as deafening as it usually is when I bust out these dice for an epic barrage of pulse-rifle fire, and yet it still had that same feel. And even with 30 dice on the table, there still ended up being a tie that had to be settled by my lucky aqua die for a Hand of Fate roll.
And fate chose ImagesbyAlex, in a very close contest and by one die roll.
For the record, it was hard as hell to narrow it down to just six, too. If next month is just as interesting as this month ended up, I may develop ulcers!
Bit of a Michelangelo overload this month.
I'm gonna have to vote for Lousy_Day

1st: Toxic_Shia's recreation of "The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci, because it made me smile.
Close 2nd: Projectionist, because its a really awesome looking piece.
I'm voting for me because screw the rest of you guys!
Projectionist's recreation of "Nighthawks" by Edward Hopper gets my vote
Good lord. Every piece is amazing.
I think for sheer epicness I have to go with Crestent. Also, because I am biased and easily swayed by having my girl in there. Ah, who am I kidding, really, it's the goats!
Runners up have to be Projectionist (holy wow!), Tricky Tacky, and Alex.
But dang, every one of those entries was fabulous. Too hard to pick, you people are too talented! I'm glad I finally poked my head in here, I assumed these threads were only for artists.
Busting heads since 1938

Tough call, but I'll have to go with Projectionist
Juggertha's creation of adam
what is it with you guys and TA...he is a REALLY popluar subject
Volt Sentinel Reference
Thunder is good, thunder is impressive, but lightning does the work.
They pay him in 'protection' art
It was a *really* close call on this one! *REALLY* close!
I choose Lousy_Day's rendition of "The Creation Of Adam"
The clouds! The Brush-strokes! The Texture!
With Tacky_Tricky's "Pequenas" and Projectionist's "Nighthawks" both very close behind!
Best Month, Yet!
Projectionist's take on "Nighthawks" gets my vote, but that was a *hard* pick. Everyone did great stuff this month.
I usually catch these things after the close date, so I'm happy to put my vote in for...
ImagesByAlex's recreation of "Nymphes et Satyre" by William Bouguereau!
I really enjoyed how Alex captured the lines and playfulness of the original piece while creating a scene that is very different.
Great work!
Projectionist's Nighthawks.
The best comics are still 10�!
