Welcome to the 7th Grand Graphics Tournament -- FINAL ROUND! The best Artists of GGT 7 are gathered together to do a battle royal for top 3 bragging rights and a sweet sweet prize totaling 1260 fsp. Who will be #1, #2, and #3 this time?

Well, that my fellow players is up to you!

The theme you're voting on is 'Futuristic New Years Day'.

Freestyle is where the artist has free reign to create any type of graphics he/she chooses (so long as it's not animated).
 

What is  a 'Futuristic New Year's Day'?

New Years Day has dawned in the far future. How does it look?

That's up to the Artists. What do they see for a far, far future New Year's Day?
Is the population 1/2 human 1/2 alien? 1/2 human 1/2 robot? Are there flying cars? Superhuman abilities? Or has the world been wiped out by one huge New Years Eve Party?

Below you'll find the entries. Please take a moment and look them over, vote for the avatar-signature set that you find most appealing and give a bit of a reason for your rating.

Please rate each entry set on a scale of 1 to 10 with a vote of 10 being 'this blows my mind it is so good' and 1 being 'this is phale'.

You have up to 25 points to distribute between the two entries in each grouping.

You DO NOT need to give out all 25 points. The MAX you can give is 10 points on 1 piece per group.

(Note: 10 points = +1, 5/10 = +.5, etc etc on tally sheet)

Please include a reason with your votes - you only have to give a reason for one per set. It doesn't have to be technical. You can just say I liked this one best, or something along those lines but we all know an artist thrives on feedback so don't hesitate to really say what you think.

If your vote looks like you're trolling or joking I will contact you about it, and it won't count unless I'm satisfied that you weren't trolling.


Voting closes at 23:59 Server Time on Wednesday, January 1st

Votes that do not have a reason will not be counted.

*artists, you may vote, but do not skip your own group, votes will be adjusted when tallied.

Please vote for every grouping.

On behalf of my fellow artists, thank you for taking the time to vote and I hope you enjoy the bounty of art that is being laid before you.

NOTE: Everyone who votes will be entered into a drawing for a FREE avatar!!  Several people will be randomly selected after the voting.

Free avatars to be given out by random will be done by the following artists:

2 by cqinmi  (note: due to a large list of avatars needing to be completed, it may take awhile for you to receive your free avatar. Please have patience but feel free to contact the artist in game.)

2 by patnov

That's 4 chances to win an avatar!
