OK with this one, to see the full piece, you are gonna have to click the picture as I don't think the rest would be appropriate for these here forums. Though I could be wrong!

These are incredible. I love all the new takes on TA's costume, they've preserved his dark nature but everything else appears mutable. Yet they're all still clearly TA. This last one even has elements of Captain America and Ironman, yet it is still entirely TA.

Yeah I love that the contestants are adding their own spin to TA but keeping the main look in tact. Heya Goat, thanks man, thats one of my newest villain concepts for TA called Drath. The artist wanted to make him look like a dragon warrior and thats what they cam up with.


OK heads up, art dump in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..............

By #30 you mean the one of Drath eating the ashes or the one above it?

Yeah these latest ones are really ramping up. Here is another one with TA having a power surge:


BAM!

#33

The eating the ashes one... Numbers are above the pic they represent, right?

And that one of TA bursting out of the armor rocks!

Ah #28 has a very cool look/feel to it. I like how #29's cape turns to blood at the bottom very cool.

Lovin #33 the best from the new batch tho.

Wow 28 is awesome, 30 reminds me of a print taken from a woodblock carving style, 32 while more demure than the others has a great look to it as well and 33 well BAM! pretty much sums it up. Great exploding armor effect... the out of focus bits really enhance the speed and violence of the blast.
Good stuffz!

Aaah yes, that one is pretty unique and I was totally pumped that he decided to think out of the box for that one on the character. Yeah that one where he bursts out of his armor has me thinking of an alternate look for TA. Finally showing him as a God or Demi God. Beyond awesome!

Thanks bro. Yeah #28 kicks but because of the whole scene and the battle between TA and Steinn. I love how they did up Steinn there. #29 is just about as perfect a piece as you could ask for. It's a great portrait and I agree on the blood at the bottom being cool! Nice effect!

But yeah #33 is gonna be hard to beat lol

Thanks bro! I agree with ya on all those. I noticed no one commented on #32 and I really think she did a great job with the character. Really good painting job there. As far as what she had to work with in what I gave her.

See my comments above for the others..



OK another art dump coming in..

5, 4, 3, 2, 1..........

Screw you and your awesome arts! Screw you all to hades!!

((I'm just bummed since I'm sure my contest will not get this quality in this quantity...))


Seems like the coolest stuff has been waiting to near the deadline... And as for nobody saying anything on #32, I know I didn't at least in part since I know nothing on the character. It's a great piece of art but sometimes it's easier to comment on the characters you know well...

My god man, this much greatness in one place is gonna cause a overload in the ship Captain!

All hands prepare to steal art work on my mark ..... Mark.

Okay I just looked through this thread and WOW!!!! My head is going to explode with all the awesomeness! I have to say though #36...the details are breath taking. All that reflection and it looks relevant not like he/she threw some random reflections in. The only thing with it is I think there should be a light fall-off from upper left to bottom right because of the lighting from the staff... but still WOW!!!!

I'd say good luck voting TA but luck won't be enough. I think you'll need a miracle picking a winner!!!

agreed. There is some serious mojo gong on in here.

#35 is awesome!!

My goodness. This is an unbelievable set of pictures. There's some amazing talent with special effects on this page. Winners on all pages, but this one is full of it.
