A - 7/10 - very lovely picture, nice composition

B - 8/10 -I think this one is great, the composition tells an interesting story, it guides your eye over the whole piece to figure it out

C - 9/10 - this is disturbing, but the artwork is great :P the colors and captured motion are very effective

9/10 - on the first one, the reason is that the artist spend time to listen (or probably not) to the music and capture the most important theme / idea behind the song. Thus by using all those elements found in the song, the artist created this awesome artwork to represent it. I'll say it can be a professional album cover now :).

8/10 - Judging from the song, this artist also incorporated some of the themes/ideas from it. Just like the first one, this artist also convey what the music is about. The only sad part is the piece. The ghostly woman doesn't fit at all, no matter what the concept behind is.

9/10 - Uhmm....viper-ish...Well, just by looking at the cover it's awesome. Comments are pretty much like the above.

Hard votes!

A - 10/10 very nice job, and excellent attention to detail. matches/goes with the song perfectly.

B - 8/10 also nicely done, point(s) deducted because some parts could use a little more work blending and doesn't completely go with the song imho.

C - 5/10 hmm, i have to say i partially agree with this piece 'lacking' in more ways then one. if you want a full explanation of why i scored it so low pm me.

A - 9/10 Everything fits well and great details. Little unsure of ground level compared to window, but could happen.

B - 8/10 Like the feel of this one a lot. Transparency of the lower "body" image throws me off.

C - 5/10 Like the overall feel of this one as well. What kept me from scoring this much higher was the snake on the right half of the image appears to be upside down - the white belly is on the top. Also the shadows are so important to the overall feel, but then that white upside down belly is so bright between the neck and syringe.

Great tournament all! Thanks for sharing!

A 7:10-I find the artist captured the song pretty well in this piece.

B 5:10-The piece is nice, but I find it gives off a scarier feeling than what the piece sounds like. If it was made based off the title, it would probably be alright. But reading the lyrics and listening to the song, the meaning is off in the pic.
C 8:10-Looks cool and captures the lyrics of the song as well as the feeling it gives off. I just find some parts of it a bit iffy.

Early congrats to all three of you and I've had lots of fun voting in this tournament :)

A. 7/10 ~ I'll make my words simple and directly for all. While listening the music, i realized that the most important thing to put in this case, is a good sample of a bottle. And what do you do? A little one. You did well, but for me, not enough D: 7.

B. 6/10 ~ Skeletons? Skulls? Creepy things? This music? lolz? Sorry, but i think you should make something more peaceful and romantic. 6.

C. 9/10 ~ The best for me, no doubts. Why? Everything combines with the music. Snake, bite, color, magic, the art is really nice, and most important, of course, heroin.

Looks like voting has ended, congratulations to the finalists.

Current tally
(I am sure math is right but someone double check)

A) 187.5 or 173.5
B) 161 or 142
C) 186 or 183

With Cassa's and Anvy's votes since one round we accepted votes after it was over.

Without their votes

A) 173.5 or 159.5
B) 149 or 131
C) 169 or 166


EDIT: Fixed my math, Mystikool's voting threw me off :lol:

Reason I said or is because it all depends if Zukira wants to keep zizzwyly's and Swift12's votes.

Why wouldn't she? I didn't ask them to vote and they are just as entitled to their opinion as anybody else. Should we perhaps remove every low score from the voting?

I never said you made them vote. I was just saying or because Zukira quoted her self about troll votes and mentioned them slamming the artist. From the way she posted I just assumed that she is considering throwing those votes out. I personally believe those 2 missed the whole idea of voting. I voted on how well the song fit the piece, they just slammed it, even though it fit and called it unoriginal. Seems a bit too excessive if you ask me.

It's no different for voting for your friends either since we all know who did what.

I say we throw this round out and have another one :o

I'm fine with this round. I submitted the best work I could and not everyone appreciated the twist in what I did. It was a risk and it didn't pay off. I wouldn't want to do another round just because this one didn't work out, what's done is done.

Just because I know who it is does not mean I will give them a automatic 10/10. And since the GGT has started people have been doing this. All I am saying is its one thing to dislike a piece but another to slam the artist. I know that you would flip if someone called your piece unoriginal and said "this is about Avi MAKING at least the others made their own"

I think another round would be best but it is up to the artists if they want that.

It happens to me quite a bit and I do flip out... Hence why I dropped out of this GGT and gave my spot to Athdenald.. I can't take the stress.. It's also why I deleted my graphics programs off my laptop.

It's a shame when people think you did little to no work on a piece even when you did... you will always have haters... I don't like haters so i got out of doing graphics and Im very happy and stress free :mrgreen:

Congrats to all of you... nice job on all your pieces.

The votes are in, if the 2 votes in question are counted or aren't counted they only affect Wes and Grimm's standing... if a "do over" is to be done, it should be Wes and Grimm to see who gets 1st or 2nd... Athdenald is 3rd whether the votes in question are counted or not... that is just my opinion and in no reflects the thoughts or beliefs of this forum, Hunted Cows Studios or those beings occupying a parallel universe.

And might I add that third in this crowd is pretty daggum amazing considering the talent participating in this 6th edition of the GGT!

If I win an auction, please notify me in-game

I personally think they should count, unless someone knows they voted that way viciously (as in they were trying to skew the results). Otherwise, eventhough misguided, they are entitled to thier opinion. (And I personally like C better, I just want it to be fair)
