	I'd love to see a colour version of the dog one.
	Comment by Hayden October 29, 2009, 4:30 pm

	yeah what's with that? It looks very unfinished.
	Comment by Marty October 29, 2009, 4:36 pm

	Love the composition, dynamics and color of the first one, very cool. Its a shame it looks a bit rushed though.
	Comment by glenfx October 29, 2009, 5:18 pm

	I think the action-figure-like one may have a solid shot at winning.
	Comment by Ribs October 29, 2009, 5:23 pm

	My favourite is the first one - but again really awesome entries :)
	Comment by miffi October 29, 2009, 5:29 pm

	That styrofoam Max is totally awesome. I want one! If only it could be fashioned to work as some sort of hyperkinetic rabbity pinata. You know Max's massive noggin has got to be filled with all kinds of sweet treats.

	More great entries! Now I know fer sure that I have no shot at winning.
	Comment by wes008 October 29, 2009, 5:44 pm

	I don't know why, but when I saw the fifth entry I remembered Castlevania Simphony of the Night. Does anyone else find the style similar?

	No.5 "I am Bishiebrush! Seducer of teen otaku!" ^_~ Also, that maquette of Guybrush is amazing. How big is it?
	Comment by Lena_P October 29, 2009, 6:56 pm

	Totally need a high-res 1920x1080 version of the first one!
	Comment by booz October 29, 2009, 7:03 pm

	I like the one of Guybrush restraining his poxed hand. It looks awesome!
	Comment by PhoenixDirk October 29, 2009, 7:04 pm

	(sigh) and again I have no chance of winning this.
	Comment by thatdude98 October 29, 2009, 8:45 pm

	I really like the colors and style of the first one. My other favorite is the Marquis de Singe. and... @Lena_P- Its 9 inches tall.
	Comment by Xiff October 29, 2009, 8:54 pm

	@Xiff the amount of detail you put on it is wonderful, especially his poxed hand. I love how you put the darker circle outline on top of his over all pale green hand. Kudos!
	Comment by Lena_P October 29, 2009, 9:36 pm

	Wow, the amount of artists here have really improved since TMI
	Comment by Junaid October 29, 2009, 11:10 pm

	@Lena Yeah, it was pretty much a weeks worth of work. I think I re-painted his hair about three times before I got it right. At this point even if it doesn't win I still have a really cool Guybrush figure.
	Comment by Xiff October 29, 2009, 11:10 pm

	Whoa... great sense of action / dynamism in the rampaging Max pic, fantastic pose and detail on the Guybrush figurine, and the "plunder bunnies" concept is cute. Can't wait to see the rest of the entires. :)
	Comment by puzzlebox October 30, 2009, 12:08 am

	I pretty much love them all, but I totally envy the person who has a Guybrush figurine now! And I really like the first one, I might get nightmares if I had that on my bedroom while...and I like the one with Guybrush in a pumpkin a lot, there are a lot of cool little things going on in that one, nice skeletons, they reminded me of Grim Fandango.
	Comment by Emsy October 30, 2009, 12:26 am

	Actually it's the one hanging from the ceiling that reminded me of Grim Fandango style. I'm glad I'm not judging, I could never pick a winner!
	Comment by Emsy October 30, 2009, 12:28 am

	Wow, those are some fantastic entries! :O Especially the first with "Mad Max", the one with Guybrush and his poxed hand, and the beautiful painting of Elaine are astonishing! That's it, I'm never gonna win or even have my entry shown here.
	Comment by BeeKay84 October 30, 2009, 1:24 am

	The Guybrush-statue blows my mind. This is so brilliant!
	Comment by Majus October 30, 2009, 1:44 am

	Amazing! The first one totally is awesome!!!! The best thing I've seen for a while. So original and well done! Perfect :)
	Comment by RappScallion October 30, 2009, 2:57 am

	Everything looks really cool. The first one is also my favourite!
	Comment by jlilja October 30, 2009, 4:43 am

	The first one is great, but seems to be on equal playing field with the statue of Guybrush
	Comment by Scrubs October 30, 2009, 5:44 am

	@beekay84 Well, yours is probably better than those Strong Bads that were shown yesterday, right? (no offense against the fellows that did them, I just didn't really like them)
	Comment by wes008 October 30, 2009, 6:20 am

	How many days of showing entries are there gonna be, by the way? Many, I hope, because I can't get enough of these! @wes008: Well, mine's basically a photoshopped picture of me in a costume, so... nothing special, really. But yeah, I know what you mean - though, sometimes, simplicity can be really good. I kinda like the "Plunderbunnies" pic here, too, though it's quite simple. ;)
	Comment by BeeKay84 October 30, 2009, 6:46 am

	man, i havent seen my one up yet lol the first one is bomb.
	Comment by maximsh0ney October 30, 2009, 7:46 am

	I DO NOT envy you guys choosing the winners!
	Comment by Friar October 30, 2009, 8:50 am

	The competition is fierce! :( But at least we get some nice galleries of telltaley fan goodness out of it. I want that LeChuck costume, I would definitely wear that next year.
	Comment by BlankCanvasDJ October 30, 2009, 10:34 am

	I LOVE the Guybrush figurine...I want one NOW...and the Max model is awesome.
	Comment by Munky October 30, 2009, 10:41 am

	Wow, this contest surely has many awesome entries! And I'm really glad how many people here likes my entry (the first one on the list) Thank you so much! I'm seriously flattered of all the compliments :) ( I can try and see if I can make a wallpaper out of it after the contest ) And Marty and glenfx: That's my art style. I tend to leave them in a sketchy, maybe somewhat rushed look. It doesn't mean that the drawing is unfinished, though :) I used a lot of time on that one.
	Comment by Trica October 30, 2009, 11:05 am

	^ make that last statement to glenfx only. Sorry, misread. :D Anyways, I can't wait to see the last (?) batch of entries tomorrow.. it will be a tough competition! I love the Guybrush figurine!
	Comment by Trica October 30, 2009, 11:21 am

	"I DO NOT envy you guys choosing the winners!" Neither do I! Oh wait, I'm one of those poor fools. WHY DID YOU GUYS MAKE IT SO HARD TO JUDGE THIS YEAR?!
	Comment by Will October 30, 2009, 11:59 am

	Oh damn... i really didnt realize that Guybrush on #3 actually is a statue... i thought its a 3d-rendering and was only fairly impressed... now as i know what it is... its awesome! maybe not as creative as "max on pcb" in the first one, but a whole lot or more work... you could sell those and make some money with it ;-)
	Comment by Punisher October 30, 2009, 2:12 pm

	laughs Yeah, my entry, number 5, now that you mention it does look very Castlevania-style ish. Unintentionally, but yeah. XD
	Comment by bdipietr October 30, 2009, 6:36 pm

	I'm having second thoughts about submitting my unfinished "Dogs Playing Poker" sketch. I was going to color it, but I was too busy and on top of that I got the flu. Sorry guys. I promise I'll start my entry earlier in next year's competition!
	Comment by LuckyZapper October 31, 2009, 11:30 am

	Good stuff! Forgive the nitpick but #11 there with Murray has a mistake in the word balloon: Your = belongs to you You're = contraction of "you are"
	Comment by Ultimate Tomato November 5, 2009, 11:13 pm

	That Halloween/Ashen Max is absolute stunning. Lovely work.

	Comment by Masquerade November 6, 2009, 2:17 am

	Aaaah! If the Guybrush was one available to buy, it would be mine! It's FANTASTIC!
