They are all great, choosing three is just getting harder - BAH!
But if I must...
1 - Leaf-nin I just love understated pieces like this
2 - Furry_Jackal this isn't the kinda thing I usually like, but loved the composition and the textures (the flag in particular)
3 - MasterElemental1 I just love the idea behind this picture

The pic with the under title "One heart break others untie" makes no sense what so ever hence it is rubbish.....Was Statesman not granted his power from GREEK Gods ? And if so it stand to reason that the God's who rule this world are Greek.....but the pic got an eerie feeling of Judeo Christianity....explain ?
CoX for life !!

1. Leaf Nin - subtly simple, I just keep coming back to it
2. Furry Jackel - feels cozy, warm colors, great technique
3. Master Elemental1 - though I feel technique needs work, I was intrigued by the concept.

1. Tartarsause. This piece had the biggest inpact as I nearly fell off my chair laughing.
Definitely a funny twitch to Valentine's Day.
2. Furry_Jackal. I got a brotherly feeling out of this one. Very nice done, Lovely style.
3. daveyj3. My first thought was 'wow, that's massive'. Then reading the scene behind it, I had to give it a vote. You make simplicity very pretty to look at! Well done.
Some nice creative twists
on the theme this month peeps.

Lots of fun stuff this month!
1) Liz - Liz wins on both prettyness and humor. I still say Synapse's visor should have been down and covered in lipstick kisses, though.
2) Leaf-nin - Very evocative, I love her eye and hair, and the black roses slightly wilting really bring it home.
3) Furry_Jackal - While not traditional in the valentine lovey-dovey sense, it brings out the fact that valentines need not always be romantic in nature. Also, very prettily drawn!

1. Liz -c'mon! it's just too fun and cute the faces on the twins and on Synapse! Also the whole pinkish coloration with the hearts background is just fun.
2. Master Elemental - I like the concept of it even if it's a bit rough, drawing wise. The mood's very sentimental.
3. Leaf-nin - It's just overall very pretty and simple. I love the flowers.

1. Three points for daveyj3,
2. two points to tartyrsause, and
1. one point to leaf-nin.
I wish I could offer even more points to daveyj3, but unfortunately the rules allow me only these.
3-2-1joy
1) Leaf - Don't know why, it just turned out to be my favorite. Seemed like a heart dropping valentines from the pic and I was basing all my votes on the theme.
2) Master Elemental - Returns to embrace of the love of his life!
3) Liz - So there's the heartbroken, the eternal love, and now...the lusty love!

My vote is
1) daveyj3
2)Furry_Jackal
3)Tartyrsause
Nice submissions, it was even harder to choose this month.
My top 3 based on the theme Valentine / Love were:
- Leaf-nin - Her expression and the wilting roses she holds suggest a mysterious background to this portrait.
- MasterElemental1 - Tragic yet romantic, the juxtaposition tells a story of love lost and returned.
- Daveyj3 - Epic battle scene with the couple fighting side by side, risking their lives for the call of duty.
Little less than two hours left to vote!

February's theme was: VALENTINE / LOVE
Prizes:
The winner of the month will win 25 million influence in-game.
The runner up of the month will win 10 million influence in-game.

The entries:

Furry_Jackal
"Most folks went with the typical, Valentine's Day theme, romance, flowers, hearts, etc etc... I decided to take a different spin as love to me (and Valentine's Day) is a lot farther reaching than that. It's love of family, parents to children and in this case, brothers and to the home you protect and the heroes that inspire you. In this case, dark Taliesen's two sons."
daveyj3
"There's no one else I'd rather have at my side." Click here to read the scene behind this entry.
syrusb / Liz
"Synapse Sandwich"
