Chow 104 :: The Four Brothers


ROUND #104

THE FOUR BROTHERS
-------------
DESCRIPTION

OFF THE DECK

The Four Brothers
Choose at least 2 of the Four to illustrate

The Four Jacks – brothers all – but like most royals, bitter bickering and hatred sours their relationships with each other.

Jack of Clubs is the Brute, and wounded on the inside – and can’t stand the site of blood.
Jack of Spades is suave, sophisticated, and self centered.
Jack of Diamonds is as gay as the day is long, and just avoids it all.
Jack of Hearts doesn’t fight for himself, but for the people!

To say they hate each other is akin to saying the sun rises in the morning. Their wars across the city are pitiless and brutal, each claiming a district decorated in their colors and code of arms and regalia. Elaborate duels, vile deceptions, and daring deeds are the duty for the day. But for all of their posturing, daredevil deeds, verbal salvos, and machismo – none can sword fight worth a whit.
_________________________________


FOLLOW THE TOPIC.

POST YOUR FINAL IN THE FINAL BURNING THREAD.


SAVE YOUR FILES IN THE FOLLOWING FORMAT.
Chow##_Nickname
example: "CHOW#100_Oblio.jpg"

PLACE THE IMAGE IN A FRAME WITH YOUR NAME/TOPIC



(you can add CA logo, etc).

-------------------------
DEADLINE
SUNDAY, February 3rd, 2008

The way the deadline works: if deadline is on a Sunday and your image is posted on that Sunday 23:59 your local time it's a good entry.
In fact - as long there is Sunday somewhere on the planet your entry is ok. I will make the poll sometimes Monday evening my time (GMT - 8 ) yet I'll have a look at the last entries.

--------------------------


POST YOUR FINALS IN THE FINAL BURNING THREAD!

Remember to include your nickname in the filename.

About quality - as general rule: if your shapes and values are not decent - you are out. Watch proportions, perspective etc. we need perfectly readable shapes and coherent, consistent values.

_____________

BE PROFESSIONAL - only finished and good quality entries will be taken to the poll. The host will make the selection.

It should be interesting to see the different ways people manage to get two of the brothers in the same location together without one or the other ending up dead...

Yes - but you can illustrate them together, if that is what you're driving at.

Ooh er... interesting topic... Kind of lends itself to something more narrative based. Fun!

Edit: Numero uno... don't really know what I'm doing this time round...

I think he's the suave one, he has little spades hanging of him.
