OGLEMEANIMATION

[magicgoo]

Please tell me if I made any errors. Other mods: Feel free to fix any image tags I screwed up.

I'm sleepy. This was hard. I'm gonna eat Nesquick Powder now.

Gorgeous entries, everybody! You're all sooo amazingly talented in such unique ways! Brava!!

[|NTeRN]

bluefooted, your piece is so damn awesome. damn.. you got my vote

[Icon]

ooh wow! this was well worth the wait!
I am in love with so many pieces! OZYMANDIAS , Stacey Diana, sleeper service, Blue footed, Magic goo, Poise
and Shelley Wan! Oh my god Shelly Wan!

You ladies are amazing! Truly inspiring! I cower under your might. So i've cast my vote.

This was great fun , we need to do this again!!!

[LoTekK]

Wow, awesome entries here! A lot of the pieces really did it for me, but Shelley Wan's just positively jumped off the page at me. Amazing stuff all round!

[poise]

WOWW!!! Holey Crap!! soo much good work. Oh Man!! so great!! I really don't know who I'm voteing for. Great Job everyone. and thank you very much Magicgoo!

[AngryScientist]

SO many amazing works! I have a few I'd love to vote for but I'll listen to the songs first and then decide

[yAdam]

Wow! The entries are awesome! My favourites were: Molly, Bluefooted, Bprodigy, Pan, Poise, Quicksilver, Shelley Wan, Stacey Diana, and Yumiko.

In the end I voted for Shelley Wan. I downloaded a bit of that song and the painting definitely has the same feeling as it…Really beautiful image, great characters, awesome designs for the clothes, fantastic composition…

[Noë]

WOW!
I love these entries!
I especially like Yumiko's, Quicksilver's, StaceyDiana's and ICONOPHOBIAN's entry..

But which one to choose.... Don't know!!

love,
Marleen

[Egoartist]

Congratulations to all you girls who finished. So many favorites! So horrid we have to choose only one. Now am so confused.

[mortain.B]

I'm paralyzed! Amazing work everyone!

You girls kick the guys asses! Ouch!

I like the work of BAD BROWNIE (would like to see it colored), YUMIKO, STEPH LABERIS, ICONOPHOBIAN, POISE, MOLLYX, OZYMANDIAS, MAGICGOO, GREEN TOPAZ, BLUEFOOTED, KATFAYHEIRTI, STACEYDIANA, PAN and SHELLEY WAN the most.
wow!

[Zaknafain]

WOW! Great art everyone.
SHELLEY WAN, BLUEFOOTED, OZYMANDIAS, YUMIKO, ICONOPHOBIAN and PAN are my favorites. It's really hard to choose only one artwork.
Oh and Shelley wan: could you please post a bigger version of this? I'd so like to see this.

[Carnifex]

shelley wan got my vote. just caught my eye.
yumiko is second for me.(edit: LOL now that angryscientist said it...)
pan third-although she shares it with poise,edenfong and bluefooted.

saphire's doesn't show up and you forgot the img tags on dished's,greentopaz' and kakee's.

[Summer Pudding]

Ladies, you've outdone yourselves. <bows low in the twirly handed Elizabethan courtly style> There's some phenomenal work here. For me, there's four exceptional pieces; Yumiko, Bluefooted, Pan and Shelley Wan. Can't I split my vote here?

PS: I'd suggest moving this thread to IT'S FINALLY FINISHED for maximum exposure, and a chance to snaffle more votes.

Pete

[AngryScientist]

I would have loved to vote for STACEYDIANA but after listening to the song it's just not working for me Amazing skills, great enviro, no fighting.

YUMIKO - WOW. No words. But.. is that Jason Manley? haha! Seems that even working as a texture artist at MB betters your skills like whoa.

NONIE - that song and the pic - awesome work!

Some other stuff that rocks my world - POISE, BAD BROWNIE, SHELLEY WAN, PAN, LOOK(+extra love for the song), OZYMANDIAS.. and well basicly everybody else. My browser's being funny and these pics totally rape my connection so I can't see some that I did like but didn't remember that artists of. Phew.



edit: After much thought, I voted for ICONOPHOBIAN

[Steph Laberis]

My God girls, these results have blown away all of my expectations...! Mad props to Yumiko, Magic, Shelley, Ozy and Cookiedough! Everyone here has helped to put the girls of CA on the map (in flashing neon lights!).

Everyone deserves to rest easy now... though I'm on pins and needles with the voting

[ZapRadon]

OMG. We are incredible!

[Molly]

Yumiko Bluefooted, Cookiedough, Stacey Diana, Pan, Shelley Wan - can have my vote...Like SummerPud says - anyway of splitting it???

ok, I voted for Pan, I love Tom Waits and the pic suits the song so well! Great style, luv it...

Awesome pieces here by everyone!

Mx

[quesadeist]

Sorry I couldn't participate. Last night when I went to upload my image, I found out my internet connection was down. Here I was, busting my ass to finish so I wouldn't have to drop out, but I guess fate was against me. Good luck to the contestants.

[westendgirl]

Incredible job, everyone. I hate voting for just one though! We need to have more girly thunderdomes more often.

[glikster]

Holy crap.... there are so many kick-ASS pieces in here!

I had to vote for Poise, but Bad Brownie, Yumiko, Shelley Wan, StaceyDiana, nonie, gitsune, bluefooted.....WOW!!!!

[entdroid]

After a looong time spent watching everyone's work and listening to songs, I finally decided on my vote.
It was SO hard to choose!!! I abssolutely loved the works of Bluefooted, Green Topaz, Pan and Shelley Wan. But in the end, I've let myself being just a tiny bit partial to the chosen song, so I went with Green Topaz's piece. I just love the way she interpreted it, such an amazing job!

Great great work everyone!
And thanks to Magicgoo for all her efforts!

[CCThrom]

I think "WOW" kinda sums it up...

Some truly fantastic work here, narrowing to one is gonna be a killer!

[vigostar]

wow, there is some really great works here...
Ozymandias, Magicgoo, Bluefooted,, shellywan, Pan (didnt know Pan was a she!), Yumiko (with that Jason Manley look-a-like),Tatiana, Iconofobian, Poise, Bad Brownie, staceyDIana, and in the end I had to choose ShelleyWan just gorgeous work... Fantastic works all around.. You gals are a treat to hang with on these forums...

[cartoonfox]

I aggree this should be moved over to the Finished section to get more exsposure.

Some awesome entries. I enjoyed scrolling down the page looking at all the awesome art.
One of the hardest to vote for I think. I spent 5 minutes just thinking about it! There were loads I wanted to vote for, very tough to choose...


peace

[look]

OMG, OMFG!!!!!!!!!!! This is insane! I can't listen to the songs yet since I'm stuck at work. But image wise,
QITSUNE: That stone angel is so detailed and beautiful! What medium did you use? it looks traditional.

SCARLET: That's way too funny. I really got to listen to that song to find out why the painful dance. XD

CHAOSROCKS: I like the mood and surrealism, it feels like some scene I've seen in a dream.

QUICKSILVER: that's bloody and creepy (in a good way). I like the background choice.

ANGRY SCIENTIST: Love the green light.. and that fence. XD

SVE: I like the feeling in it, and the rusty orange color. I really like the guy's face on the right side.

MOLLYX: Awesome and KINKY! It looks like one of those old circus posters.

DISHED: The teddy bear really caught my attention. By the way, it seems you don't have your own host, do you want me to host your image till voting ends? It seems you'll miss a lot of viewers by not able to direct link your image

EDENFONG: I love your coloring. The expression on the girl is great.

Noë: That's scary and creepy. I like the way the guy's peeking while holding his head.

OZYMANDIAS: Beautiful! Love the detail on the hands, the folds, and everything else!!!

MAGICGOO: Those hands and arms are simply bloody gorgeous. why do you have to be so dark and bloody? Your new avatar still gives me chills.

ENTROID: Didn't know apple can give you hang over too. I better watch out. I like the expression on the angel on the floor.

GREEN TOPAZ: That's beautiful! Simply beautiful. I've offered the same for Dished, and I'd like to offer the same to you too. Do you want me to host your image so you can have it shown directly? It's a pity to have lazy viewers missing out your entry.

KAKEE: Which one is your entry? I'm assuming the left most one? Would you like me to host your entry too? I have enough bandwidth to do that.

BLUEFOOTED: I always love your illustrations, they have a strange oriental feeling to them. Perhaps its the use of color, or the amount of fine details, I just love it.

SLEEPERSERVICE: Is that guy napolean dynamite by any chance? Maybe it's just the glass and hair.

COOKIEDOUGH: that's a strange chain of events. I think I heard of the song before, gotta listen to it again when I get home just to double check. I like the style you used.

B PRODIGY: I love the smoke effect, some part may be a bit too obvious on the smudge, but overall it's neat.

GRENDEL GRACK: Creepy. When I looked at the image at first, I thought of the movie "Van Hellsing". XD I guess it's pretty close, since both movies have vampires.

WARONMARS: the slots on the boy can be a little more detailed. The muscules are cool, but it's hard to tell the arm from the rest of the body.

SAPPHIRE: Haven't heard of the song, but the painting really suit the song title. I'm feeling uneasy here simply by looking at those pricked wounds.

KATFAYHEIRTI: love your display of lighting. It really lifts the character up.

ZAPRADON: For some reason the dead guy on the ground touched me deeply. He looks almost relaxed, and it looks as if he's sleeping if not for the blood on his body and shirt.

STACEYDIANA: I'm speechless, I simply love the muted color and details.

ESHARA: Love the background, it's so realistic.

PAN: Nice tears, and nice colors. Love the way you paint the cloud and how you draw those tree like shapes.

FISA: nice detail. Which song are you painting for?

SHELLEY WAN: Simply awesome, I can't believe the amount of details you put in there. And the way you illustrate smoke/cloud is simply beautiful.

BAD BROWNIE: hehe, finally a song I've heard of. Love your lines.

YUMIKO: I love the skin tone! The background is so beautifully detailed.

Hillartsympho: The combination of purplish blue and pink gives it an inverted feeling somehow, as if i'm looking at a film's negative. I wonder if anyone else feel the same.

STEPH LABERIS: That's so cute! Looks like something straight out of a children's book. Love the peachy colors

ICONOPHOBIAN: Yours is one of my favorites. The strange smile on the child and the chaotic crowd really shows the idea of "mad world".

TATIANA: Does it have something to do with twisted fairy tales? I see little red riding hood turn into a wolf.

DENYED: the wing is so detailed and the sky is really beautiful.

POISE: Love that wave, it looks like some traditional japanese painting.

LADY LIONESS: I like the creamy colored clouds. The character can use more contrast, the facial part is too faint because of the light shading.

JEWL: this image reminds me of the ghost stories I've read. Very creepy. Although I think the overall image can be darker to show the mood better.

EGETS: Disturbing, (no, i don't mean it in any bad way). The eye-like boobs are really attention grabbing, so is the fish like creature on upper right corner.

NONIE: The faces are beautiful. I love the texture on the lady's dress, and the shoes are so well painted!

[edenfong]

wow girls.. these were amazing. i'm so impressed! bluefooted, yumiko, and shelleywan are my favorites...
thanks so much magicgoo, this has been an awesome experience. good luck everyone!!!

[Oglemeanimations]

@MagicGoo
So..I sent the link to my submission last night, but sent it to a @hotmail instead of @yahoo. I must have been really out of it.. I sent you a PM with the link to my image.

Looking good ladies, best of luck to you all.

[Keng]

I loved Iconophobia's. The mood in the piece is great. Perfect for the song. My second choice would of been Poise's elephant. Great work everybody. Absolutely beautiful. I'll have to try commenting on all of them when I have more time.
