Damn only four people? I'll make sure to get in on the next one so that doesn't happen again...

voted for amaranth, nice concept!

Voted for Me, Myself, and Me Again as it shows the greatest technical prowess and that it portrays the idea more vividly than the other two (that key in his/her mouth makes it work). Lufia's work seems to portray more as protection of loved ones rather than a gate. I think Lewis' work can be much clearer if the background showed more. To me, the idea seems more like a wandering creature in a temple setting rather than defending a gate.
