Ok since there is a weird number of people the finals will just be one, 3 way battle. It shoudl be good, and next time we will get more people competing so it all fits with a 1 vs 1 battle at the end.
So here it is guys. Tacklberry vs Darklord vs Azuerus.....
Theme: Abstract. Also make something unique like maybe different shape, pop out render.
Size: Whatever (Unique)
Render: Own choice
Animation: Own choice
Deadline: 48 hours from when this is posted.
Basically for this you need to have abstract in it, whether it be abstract brushes or not, it needs abstract, now just go crazy, be original, unique. Have fun. :grin:
-
I was expecting some harder and more challenging, but this is ok. ;)
Maybe you should add a uniqe size rule for this competition, so we can prevent cheating..?
-
Back from holiday for the Final...this is great!
Omni we have a discussion thread, the only people that are allowed to post in the battles are competitors and judges. :)
And Tacklberry, I will have to, but against my will, because we want really unique ones to show off creativity, but yeh not saying people will cheat, but people do so. I've changed it to 333 x 111.
-
I'm a judge you complete goon :P
-
I'm a judge you complete goon :P
.............. :D Glad to have you back Omni........umm we now have 6 judges......... :unsure: We hired Impulse to take your place. And BJ, stop posting in here, us judges and competitors dont want to wade through thread after thread of 'I hope 'name' wins' So just post in the discussion thread.

My entry?
I thought so until I saw the sig size rule. Damn... You should´ve put it there before I started to make it...!
And no, I didnt spend that many hours making it. But I started before Aries posted that.

here is my entry :)

I just want say one thing. The sig above will be my entry, even if you allow it or not. I don´t want to spend more time in making one and I don´t have much more time to make one...
I hope you understand. Thanks.

Ok judges, you can start voting, Corporal is having network problems at home and we dont want to delay the finals. I wont be voting cus otherwise it is 6 judges and then we could have a tie. So good luck both of you and may the best sig win :)
-
That's harsh for Azeurus, he struggled to get into the finals and you disqualify him for it? I won't vote till we settle this appropiate, sorry dude..
-
Azeurus said he doesn't mind atall. But whatever. He cant do it unless it's round my house, and that could easily be classed as cheating.
-
If you know him personally than you could be influenced in the way of voting for him because you guys are friends, meaning that would count as cheating as well. I say give him a shot, you just don't help him. I think you can take that responsibility, don't you?
-
Yeh. I wasn't saying that, but people might accuse me of, any anyways I'm not voting in this round :) Impulse has taken my place.

Tackleberry: A very nice sig dude, with great colour work and brushing. The Render goes really well with the sig with the colours and the hair of the woman seems to flow into the BG which is great!. The texi is quite good but least good part of the sig. I think a more dreamy font would've worked better.
Darklord: Yet another awesome sig. A really nice abstract BG, with very nice tech-style border and grid. The text is very nice also and is placed really well on that blue bit. The only problem I have with this sig is its too white to the right.
My Vote: This was such a tight competition and both sigs were amazing and worthy of the final but my vote goes to Darklord.
-
Tac:
Everything matches really nice, the colors, the shapes, the brightness, everything, exept for the text. It's a very nice sig, very original. :)
Dark:
Also very original sig, nice colors, good contrast, nice text. I like your border alot too dude, very original.
Both VERY good sigs, but i vote for darklord, cause i didn't realy like tac's text, and dark's looks more abstract.
very good job both of you (Y)

Tackleberry
Render: Sweet render m8 looks guud in the background
Background: Its very abstract, Maybe a lil chaotic but it fits well with the render
text: I think the text is that good but its also hard to get a good text on that background.
xtra:
Liked the lines wich gives a technical feeling they look great
Darklord
Render: Is there one? :unsure:
Background: Ye its very abstract but i dont like the left part. its also doesnt have a "focus point"
Text: Liked it u flowed it with that line altought i dont like the pixel font
xtra:
some nice patterns on it.
The Verdict
Both great designers..
altought i think the entrees are a bit disappionting imo
i think u guys could both do better.
I liked tacks render wich flowed well intro the background
I liked the patterns and stuff on darklords sig
But my vote goes to Tack because darklord haddent a focus point.
so when i watched ur sig i was like where the hell do i have to look.
anyways good luck guys
Votes
Tackleberry: 1
Darklord : 2

Finally sorted out my network problems... Damn I missed it. Ah well, I'm well happy with being 3rd, it's fine for me, and I'm no match for Dark or Tack anyways. Good luck to both of you, and you've both made awesome sigs!!
-
Render: Is there one?
yes i have made the background by using my own made renders. i dont have touched any brushes. only the one pixel for making my pattern.
-
Come on, please..! Please vote so we can end this.
Thanks.
-
OK I'm gonna keep it nice and simple cus I'm tired. My vote goes to tackleberry. Reason being because his seems to have more colour and unique-ness about it, it looks great, text looks great, render blends in, colours rock, background rocks. Darklord I didn't like your text very much, and the white bit in the background, good job to both of you and I wish you the best of luck ;)
-
So it all comes down to me eh?
[span style=\'color:orange\']Tackleberry[/span]
- Render and background go great; it flows into eachother, the woman's hair looks like the dark parts in the background, which is why it flows so well.
- Text goes good with background as well, but doesn't spring out of it very much
[span style=\'color:orange\']darklord[/span]
- Very abstract; it looks very good, BUT the white spots on the left are a bit bad; The whole sig is dark but the left is light.
- Text and it's background go pretty well, but it's a bit hard to read
My vote: Tackleberry, his entry flowed almost perfectly; beating something like that would be very very hard. Congratulations Tackleberry!
