OtherSpencer Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) Our gaming group decided to have a painting competition and we are looking to you to vote! After most of us received Miss Demeanors after Adepticon we felt that this would be something fun to get us all painting. Voting will take place for 2 weeks and then we will announce the winner. Now onto the entries!! Entry 1. Entry 2. Entry 3. Entry 4. Entry 5. Entry 6. Edited May 8, 2012 by OtherSpencer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nix Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I think this is one where photography may end up making the decision. I have to say that to my eye, entries 1 and 4 looks best of the batch. I do like the sculpted smoke on 6 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattbird Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 4 ftw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yes but no Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I actually quite like the colour scheme to number 3 but the paint seems super thick. Could just be the picture though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonn Agram Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I think the best painted techniqually is number 6. and I voted for it but am still not sure I love the look of it. However that is a matter of taste - and it should be discussed so I voted for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZimmeZitron Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 The sculpted smoke on the last one was so cool I had to vote for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiralngCadavr Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 The sculpted smoke on the last one was so cool I had to vote for it. I wasn't a fan of the smoke, but thought that one had the nicest colors, anyway, so #6 gets my vote, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_mun Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I'd like to vote for number 4 as the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigkid Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Number 6 for me. Painted tights really add a lot to the model and who doesn't love Red Doc Martens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilbleachman Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I voted 6 because it looks the most like an actual convict. Haha. I just got my Miss Demeanor. Too late to join in, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osoi Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 For me its between number 1 and 4. With the slight repose of number 1 winning it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I would agree that the photos are probably influencing the results, however I like the subtle modification to Miss Demeanor on 1 (though better pictures might have swayed my vote to 4).

Oathborne Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I'm really digging the Stripped Stockings and Glowing gun barrels on 6. Smoke wisps was an awesome Idea but maybe needed to be modeled a little thinner for a better effect. Seems ridiculous to hold that against him though. Also really liking the blue jeans shorts color, very realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordZombie Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 It was a tough call between 1 and 6. I liked the pose on 1 and 6 is also pretty cool. The smoke is a little heavy, but still pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Requirement Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 My question is how was the smoke done on 6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherSpencer Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) Straight from Entry 6: Requirement, the smoke was made using Gorilla glue and wire. Gorilla glue is activated with water/moisture and tends to expand while curing which I why I used it. I super glued a piece of bent wire into the barrel and then "painted" gorilla glue over it. It took a couple of applications, allowing it to fully cure in between, to get the look I wanted. It was a bit of an experiment and seeing the pics I realize it did turn out a little heavy so I may redo the smoke effect somehow at a later time.

Requirement Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Thanks for responding. I hadn't thought of using Gorilla Glue. The effect is really nice... might try it on an Oretega... In terms of the "thickness" of your smoke, I think just a little thinner near the barrel would do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherSpencer Posted May 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 61 votes already! That's awesome! Thanks to all who have voted already. Let's see if we can hit 100 before the polls close! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jormi_Boced Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Very close so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherSpencer Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Yeah it is super close!! The 3 involved are very excited to see who ends up on top. Just under a week to go and only 26 votes away from the 100 voter goal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 (edited) Man I though 6 would run away with it but no.. Number 4 looks like it has been dipped in light tone which doesn't do it for me (could be the pics) opinions are really fascinating and how each came to their conclusion. Number 3 looks great but photo wasnt great Number 1 is just converted points, What is that brown on the shirt? ********* well done all.. I like the idea of the joker in number 2 but it needs more time applied to getting it there Edited May 16, 2012 by zero ********* removed to be Pg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonn Agram Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 what puzzles me in the entry 1 is: where did the ball and chain on second pic come from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherSpencer Posted May 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 I know that no models were dipped in the contest do it could have been photo for number 4. Straight from entry 1 in reply to other questions: "The 1st pic was taken before the chain was added as I was testing the camera. Accendently uploaded the wrong final pic but figured it was too late before I noticed. And the brown on the shirt is a poor attempt at painting sheer. Breaking out of prison really makes a girl sweat." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
