Cast YOUR Vote for the Best Fan Art!

Yeah, I can't view them until after I voted :(

I think in this contest the winner announce wednesday a day after the deadline 210409 and the staff would be judge, because this is not serious, change the rules like this and you dont have the date for last day to vote??? what happened!!!

FOR THE ARTISTS ALL WORK I LIKED GOOD LUCK!!!

Wow i just voted for my favorite artist.

Thanks for all of you for your support in the joker's lipstick :D

I didn't know it was so funny.

And i wanted to do an observation :D

Iknow i'm not the great artist, butwhy's germaingallegos piece so good? XD

i would vote but I can't see any of the pics!!

@vinnievincentchente: I can't figure it out either. I don't even think it's that funny...maybe it's just us. Anyways, great job to everyone. I just want to know the winner already

Yep, we cant help it at times coz when someone's popular, he/she sure is popular. At least the judges said "HELP" us choose the winners with your votes.

Win or lose (although the box of swags seem really cool), im juz glad i made a lot of people laugh their asses off with my Deadpool piece! And i support all the other humorous and deserving pieces! Well done!

Thanks for the support guys!

I went for Micah Browns arm wrestling one. It just stands out to me more than any of the others.

The judges should have picked the top 15 or so and then let us vote cuz even the ones who thought "inaction" meant in action, supers doing something action-y, are getting a fair chance >:( Will the box contain $400 worth of swag?

I cant see the artwork either, it must be a conspiracy so we cant vote.

Very true Shaman. I know I'm not going to win, but congrats to whoever does.
My votes are:
JamesH
Shaman
Brian Combs
Charlie Donkin
Vincente and
Matt Zolman

again great job everybody!

I got a vote and it wasn't from myself! That's about all I can ask for :) Thanks. Some great pieces in there and I'm just glad to be part of it!

Wow, my Death got 6 votes? thats 6 ore than I thought Death would get.

do you get the feeling that the whole voting thing isn't really working? maybe next time you should make it that you can only vote if you leave your details or a comment. otherwise i could just submit a stick figure and then run a script(im sure tech nerds could do something like this) and just keep voting again and again.you need criteria to be judged by too because too many of them are not doing what the contest states or are just bad rip offs of previously done art. i like seeing original pieces of peoples interpretations hand drawn. mentioning some of the pieces like charlie donkins spiderman knitting or martin yangs green lantern changing a bulb: they say "i'm off duty" which i like.

pretty cool

lol nice elbeaster

Well for the next contest, i feel the entries should be judged with categories. There shouldn't be a winner for every category, but the winner would be what the judges feel the entry that ranks highest in "average" of all the categories put together. This way everyone would have a chance even if they don't have the same resources as everyone else. Every entry would be judged in 7 different categories:

-Concept of the contest (ex: inaction)
-Humor/Drama
-Originality
-Lighting/Shading
-Dynamics (action sequences, not necessarily fighting)
-Proportions (accuracy)
-Cleanliness (esthetics)

Each entry would get a grade from 1 to 10 in each category making the entry's final grade from 1 to 70. The entry with the highest grade wins. If there is a tie, the judges will examine both entries and compare them in each category and the one with the upper hand in most categories wins.

I think this way, it would make the competition a bit more serious but still very very fun. And not to mention, fair for everyone. Notice how i didn't put "colors" or "style" so that the people who have more of a "professional" talent wouldn't automaticaly win.

I even offer myself as a judge which would take me out of the competition and i could submit the first entry to be used as an example of the concept which CBM could use to announce their contest. Let us know what you think CBM :)

BTW, juz to comment on Elbeaster's comment that handdrawn should always win against photoshopped works, i dont think that's fair bro. Were pals but gotta disagree. ;)

If a person juz grabbed online images and cropped them together in pshop, i agree it shouldnt win but when someone uses pshop to make something from scratch, he deserves as much chance as any traditional artist. :) And remember, handdrawn entries can be traces/copies of existing artworks as well and those shouldnt be allowed as much as copied digital works.

That is true that it could be made from scratch on photoshop; I wasn't thinkin' of that. Mine was just two pics cropped together, so that definitely shouldn't count. But it is kinda hard to judge hand drawn against something that was made on the computer.

that or disregard all the votes that came from inactive accounts or those who have been registered juz during the time the contest was held. That would even up the play field.

Elbeaster, it may be a bit hard for someone who doenst read much comics but trust me, any comic loving judge would recognize a copy/clone of existing artworks. :D As for comparing digital and traditional pieces, some judges may have their preferences and would consider traditional over digital and vice versa but still a better artwork is still a better artwork regardless. :)

There are champions of traditional art like Alex Ross (Kingdom Come) and Joe Jusko (Mavel Masterpieces I) and Boris Vallejo as well as his wife, Julie Bell(Marvel Masterpieces and Xmen cards). Also, there are the modern champions of Digital art like Djurjevic (Daredevil covers) and Sejic (Witchblade). Then there are those who use both like Adi Granov (who designed the iron movie piece). All have different styles and employ different methods but all of em are equally great. :)
