Shia ..more ribbons.. though I think the characters could have stood to have less clothing on over all

Hah, I hadn't noticed the Swan thing till you pointed it out. And I'd worked on that piece more than a few days, too. Wonder how I missed that....Um I mean, no no, you see, the cape was getting in the way so they laid it out on the ground under her... yah....

I also realize I haven't voted. It's a very tough call. |
FrozenDeath. No the point is you (and Johnnykat) were trying to get it declared a nipple when everyone else including the artist himself said that it was just a line. What exactly do you think would have happened if you had gotten Wassy to agree with your opinion? Oh right CR gets disqualified and contest over, duh. Thanks for making my point.
It's no more laughable than what you tried to do. It's just not you thats doin it this time so maybe you don't see it.

Well Actually they weren't the only ones to see the line as a wordrobe malfunction but they did speak up. Speaking for myself I felt they made the same arguments for it that I would have.|

We get it, though, you felt CR was wrongly accused of something. He's moved on why can't everyone else now?
Peace, love and all that BS....

Rubbish. I merely commented on what I saw on the page. Look in my DA gallery if you think I have some problem with nudity. You're trying to get Shia's entry declared porn and thrown out. Not even in the same ballpark.| It's no more laughable than what you tried to do. It's just not you thats doin it this time so maybe you don't see it. |
Also, you're making it look like I'm out to get Chris, which is flat out ********. If I have it in for someone, I don't give them my email, phone number, and give them Photoshop tips via livestream chat. Just stop.

"I'AM SATANS FAVORITE CHILD!!"
I was going to suggest we have an arguement contest, but someone will prolly spoil it by posting some art every 5 minutes /rolleyes.
Not in the same ballpark? Hunh?
You commented on what you saw and so did I. If Bayani were to declare Shia's pic as beyond pg-13 he would be out, just like if Wassy had declared CR's dark line a nipple he would've been out. The wording may be different (duh) but the process and result are exactly the same. You want to think it's different when you (and Johnnykat) do it but it's not.
I don't think you hate CR or are out to get him anymore than I am out to get Shia but I do say his pic clearly violates the rules, thats all.
And I never said you have a problem with nudity anywhere did I?(no idead where you got that from)? I have seen some of your gallery. Have you looked at CR's gallery? See any nudity anywhere? What should that tell you? Now how many times have you seen Shia push the limits of PG-13? Lol how many times in just the last few weeks? That would be one difference between my claim and yours. Mine's got precedent (many times over) and is blatantly obvious while yours is based on nothing other than your opinion of what you think you saw. Think about that.
Oh and No. You have no business telling me when I can or cannot speak or what about. I will express my opinons as I see fit. Saying "just stop" is just rude.
Henri. Good one dude. I lol'd.

But you are properly right. It might get spoiled with people posting art.

I vote for CR aswell.
I'm a sucker for pencil drawings *giggles*.
And personally I find this one a creative put-together with added new stuff.
It's fun being able to put drawings you did together for something completely different and I can't blame CR for doing so!
Shia did a great job aswell!
There's a real evil twist to the art, which is kind of scary hehe. It could well be an Villain article.
Oh, and personally, I think...bondage in the sexual way has nothing to do with this drawing, if you read the lines 
. But I suppose being female might influence that observation a bit .
CoH Fan-Art Sale still several slots open!

Shia.
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
Aw, c'mon, if we don't have DJ1 around to be our lightning rod of hate, then we'll all start to remember that Caemgen and Bayani hate each other, or that Juggy and BW are bitter rivals or that I hate ALL OF YOU.
I mean, new and fresh dramah is how we make history here!

I can appreciate what he is saying I just don't think it's much help in a thread that is supposed to be for voting but then I would never try to silence him either. From what I gather he is pretty new to the forums so I can forgive the lack of netiquette. He does make some points I agree with (though his tone might be getting in the way of his message) and others that I don't.
There is no doubt that had the "dark line" been ruled a nipple I would've been out and the contest would have ended long before this thread existed. Also it's true I would've gladly reworked the area in question had someone pointed it out before the deadline (would've been nice
). It didn't work out that way but I don't fault BW for his words. He called it like he saw it and he made his point. I made my counterpoint and Wassy made the call. For me it's all water under the bridge now but it's a good example. People make their points and debate their opinions and even though I was not happy with the remarks at the time I would not want them silenced either. If there is a problem or something people don't like I think they should speak up and I've always been open to, and gotten a bunch of useful, critique. As long as people are being constructive I'm ok with it.
I agree with DJ that the odds are not in my favor here but I don't agree there is any conspiracy against me. Realistically I know I'm submitting a black and white piece against a color one, traditional vs. digital, less than a day vs. plenty of time and the theme I feel is way more suited to Shia than me etc. etc. I know some people are choosing Toxic Shia's piece over mine for these reasons and that's fine I knew all this going in and didn't run from it. I just hope no one here is voting based on the thread drama.
Win lose or draw at least I showed up and gave my best effort and we as a forum will finally have a real end to this contest.
CR, all the way. 
I have to comment...."Unfinished" ?? Would you call a newspaper political cartoon 'unfinished' ? Black & White is still an art form, folks.
Laterz!
CR
There you two go, acting like somehow the topic favors me. How on *earth* is 'Ribbons' a topic better suited towards me? Ribbons? Seriously? Since when am I ribbon lord and master? Dorky and silly maybe, or even utterlytotallyamazing, but I honestly thought the topic was uninspiring when I heard it (oddly most of this years themes were a little difficult to come up with something interesting for), and it took me a week or two to actually come up with anything I could use other than a silly goof off drawing that was basically a copy of the one Sue'd already drawn.
Now if you're trying to say I'm more versatile and have a wider range of what I can and have drawn, then sure, I'll take that as a topic being better suited towards me. In that respect any topic would probably be better suited towards me, I guess, if a person wasn't feeling it. I like this contest in one respect because I find myself drawing things maybe I wouldn't draw if I were sitting at home and doodling. But you two, CR and DJ1, are going on like I draw ribbons and bondage on a daily basis and wake up to a fine ribbon breakfast and dream away my ribbony day with ribbon filled fantasies.
And that is just not so.
Your strange fetish filled thoughts of me and my ribbon mastery shall die now, sad, alone, and dead, where all dead dreams go, along with my hopes of being the blondest alcoholic president of the world to vomit on a Johnny Dep in space. Ooh, ooh, and Johnny Dep is also a hot chick in this one, with racktastic exploits!
Just a reminder, voting ends at 5pm on Thursday, October 7th.
Shia... I enjoyed both works, but think Shia had the edge.
Sorry to chime in off-topic somewhat here but...
Seriously? Are the art forums this cut throat all the damn time?
If so, it's making me reconsider actually getting any of my stuff up on here and offering commisions once my main rig is hooked up. Because the **** throwing side of all this has made me do a double take more times than I care to count...

what rig you hooking up??
Asking me to chose between quasi-bondage hentai and a miss America competition is almost unfair.
The real, serious reasons have been discussed better by other posters, but my vote is for Shia.
