Woo another fab set of images. Aly throws down the gauntlet, I see, great piece, as always, and yay for my round all getting images in!
Mr Chan, I think i love you, awesome image (ha, like it would have been anything else).
Other stand outs on first glance, Dominus, gorgeous colours, becard, probably the nicest mermaid piece i've seen across the three threads, beautiful rendering, Kenji, I think this piece takes the biscuit for me, I absolutely adore it, and as a reservist too! bdfoster, I love your take on the subject, beautifully done, Anthony Foti, another original portrayal of the theme, nicely done indeed, and rambozo, I keep coming back to your piece for it's composition and powerful emotion, lovely stuff.
This first round has produced some seriously epic art, guys, congrats to all who finished!
Edit: and inverted chalupa, you just made me blush crimson. I can't agree with you, but thank you! (where'd the dang thank button go??)
Sve, Fvallejo, dirty C, Pish posh, Sammy sam Hog, saturn Gate, match 32(LOL), OYO!, helltaxi, Atmospheria, Baron Impossible are the ones that grabbed me the most. Nice stuff everyone.
A quick glance and... whoahhhhhh... No way are so many people so damn good...
A lot of great art in this thread
I have to take a closer look tomorrow.
hell taxi, summer pudding and 0kelvin hit me hard.
great job everyone, love it![]()

Time for an increase in the "Inspirational Art" folder! Great pieces everybody! I'm compiling a list still but...dayymm!
So much incredible work here. It's a little overwhelming.
Congrats to my competition, sve and steak-tron! Both of yours were great!
Eric
0kelvin- The best of this bunch, by far. Every inch of it has something fun happening, and it's all made better by the fact that this is pixel art. Such a beautiful and fun image.
Atmospheria- Gorgeous image. I'm not sure what that white band on the cliff is supposed to be, but this is a beautifully painted image nonetheless.
fvallejo- Exquisite lineart. The top-down view was a nice choice.
Matt Dixon- Ooh! More pixels! Very fun image.
Poshspice- Great image. The 10 cent sticker and the little scribbles and wear-and-tear marks are really nice touches.
Jason Chan- Tentacles and a pretty girl, what a surprise!Lovely painting. The suction cups and the flowing fabric are very well done.
Also liked mysticaldonkey, john bivens, snowsfall, emily g, vyle, oyo, and mike dutton. Major props to everyone who finished!
beautiful piece Vallejopld:
I don't even know where to begin. So much great art in one place.

Tempor: I LOVE the bottom portion of your piece. I'm not feeling the cyclops robots though. The bottom portion is so calm and mysterious, then the robots cheese it up. I would have rather seen some huge architecture dwarfing the man, or some strange natural formations. The bottom/foreground though... beautiful. I'll have to check out your stuff if you have any more online.
Bumskee: very moody. love it.
I think my brain just broke!
...wait, I don't have one! false alarm.
Awesome work everyone!
Yes. I love the story created by 0kelvin. I think we were somewhere on the same wave length - telling a story that kept going as the viewer scrolled down the page. I'm really surprised more people didn't do that. I thought it was such an obvious idea.
Glad, though, that they didn't.
I don't think there's any way I'll be disappointed with what the judges decide on in these matches - everyone did such fabulous work. Rock on match #29, it's a total honor to be able to compete with you guys![]()
I just heard something dropping... oh.. it was just my jaw... silly me...GORGEOUS work all around!
PROPS to the peeps in match 30: MINDA!!! wish you could've sent in a pic... next time i guess.
@helltaxi: 1 of my 20 favs in this round.. one of the pictures that got the strongest emotional reaction from me- beautiful, just plain beautiful.

Big Thank You to all artists and Cody, a very enjoyable show!
yowzas! some amazing work here. Kinda sad, I was hoping to see something from the artists that didn't submit their final. I must say, for personal reasons, I really liked yours zephyri![]()
thanks ahbeejieh- thats super nice man
i think the standout for me was fvallejo -quite a few nice one in this batch, but that one in perticular just stands out, its magazine ready- also Mike Dutton brought the big guns, and so did entdroid - i just realized they're all kinda stylized, but I picked em as my faves cuz their solid, not just cuz i like cartoony stuff... real good work yall!
cheers to everyon who finished! -hope i win, this was fun and i wanna go again![]()

I had a lot of fun looking at all the entries, as well as painting my own. Thanks to Cody for making it happen, and to everyone who handed something in. Great show.![]()
Terrific work everyone! Like Mike said I had a blast making my imagery. Thanks to the kind words said so far! I wish everyone the best of luck in the judging.
