05/09/14 Top 3 Pick; Sherlock Skull

Bright and appealing royal blue color behind a simplified black and white image. Although the figure is rendered in high contrast, there is a great amount of detail portrayed through textures and forms. This is especially evident in the well-formed human skull. I really enjoy the “Sherlock” hidden in the folds and curves of the figure’s garment. I also very much enjoy the use of the chemical molecules, gears, and binary in the background to create a wonderful, interesting texture. It also adds nice complexity which represents the figure’s mental processes. Brilliant!

Thank You Zerobriant!!!

05/09/14 Top 3 Pick; SeaWheaties

What to have for breakfast? “…Life’s full of tough choices isn’t it?” The evil Sea Witch would like for all you poor unfortunate souls to start your day off right! Wonderful render of  this aquatic villain. Her curling, bright purple tentacles pull you in while her open reaching hands seem to go to grab you for a taste of these yummy treats. I love that her large voluptuous arms break the rectangular frame of the design. The treatment of the larger text is interesting and dynamic due to the angle in which it is in and looks great behind a well-balanced, symmetrical foreground. Ursula is not responsible for any injury or status you may incur including: loss of voice, new legs, your father’s wrath, or true love’s first kiss.

05/09/14 Top 3 Pick; DaMasks

This damask print is covered in masks! Is this design available for wallpaper? Wonderful pattern full of lovely little details. I love how at first glance the design seems so simple and elegant, then under careful inspection, you discover it is filled with lovely and nerdy masks from all over pop culture! Each mask is delicately treated and placed nicely in a grid. I very much enjoy that each mask is portrayed using only two colors and still contains enough detail to be easy recognized. Can you name them all?

ript_bamfperture_1399007974.full

05/02/14 Top 3 Pick; Bamfperture

It’s Kurt Wagner, otherwise known as “The Amazing Nightcrawler”! This blue-skinned mutant looks perfectly at home teleporting through one of these Portals. No Aperture Science hardware required! His dark skin and outfit are nicely rendered out of the black negative space. Simple blue highlights accent his skin while the red trim with white hands complete the figure’s outline. His bottom half hanging out the bottom of the other portal is nicely highlighted in orange with the red bottom trim and white feet. I very much enjoy the composition of the design. I like that the figure seems to pop out of the top center portal, while his bottom half is in a position where  it can’t possibly be connected, unless  maybe you’re a contortionist!

05/02/14 Top 3 Pick; D.T.

SPOILER ALERT! Daenerys Targaryen (D.T.) has three dragons! Okay, so hopefully that wasn’t a spoiler, but seeing her ride Drogon sure is! She is accompanied by his brothers, Viserion and Rhaegal. They seem to be taking a midnight path-of-destruction flight. The cool, white-blue moon is large and appealing and central to the design. The silhouette of the dragons are nicely rendered and highlighted by the light of the large moon. I love how the warmth of the embers seem to come and delineate the tree line.

onceuponatee_game-of-clones_1398986520.full

05/02/14 Top 3 Pick; Game of Clones

Anakin may not be the most honorable (or likable), but he’s doing his best impression of Game of Thrones‘ Eddard Stark. As Darth Vader, he certainly does play the “hand of the king” to Emperor Palpatine. Here’s an interesting thought. Worse leader? Palpatine? Or Joffrey? I really enjoy the glow of the lightsaber dead center. Wonderful use of grays to etch out the scene. His dark outfit and helmet are nicely highlighted by the Stark (see what I did there) white giving it a shine. Interesting and appropriate round window view background. It is cleverly made up of negative space.

Thank You Studown

04/27/14 Top 3 Pick; Maneki Luna

This Maneki Neko design depicting Sailor Moon’s cat Luna is so adorable! This motif works well for this black guardian cat, which signifies luck, happiness, and fortune. I highly enjoy this bright, feminine color palette. The traditionally black cat is depicted in a wonderful shape of purple with a black gradient. The floral bed in which the welcoming cat lies in, is fresh and sweet. Wonderful line work and color execution as usual for Ms. Lara.

Thank You Megan Lara

04/27/14 Top 3 Pick; Darkside of the Force

Every time I see one of these Akira mash-ups, I can instantly hear Kaneda’s theme music. Kaneda is depicted here as Vader from Star Wars. This dark lord seems determined, headed for his Tie Fighter ( Okay, technically a Tie Advanced x1 prototype). I enjoy the movement of his wind-blown cape as he walks up the design. His vehicle is meticulously illustrated and brings the eye upward.  The design is then nicely balanced by the red, asian characters in the bottom of the design.

04/27/14 Top 3 Pick; Despicable Escape

This is a hilarious rendition of Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker’s escape in episode IV “minion-ified”. Minions are extremely popular these days and lend themselves well to depicting other characters by their recognizable humanoid features. I enjoy the wonderful perspective of the gray-scale background. I seem to laugh every time I look at their little funny yellow faces as they swoop through the air avoiding fire. And ,oh no!, they dropped their beloved BANANA! HAHAHA!
