Plain Ben's looks the best IMO. The other ones are good but they just look a little off. Plain Ben's looks natural/real. HoffmanJ's is pretty good also.

KillaGod is my alternate Bungie.net account with my Gamertag linked to that account!

Ty92PrideFireZ is my new alternate account with my new and permanent Gamertag linked to that account.

I like Plain Ben's concept. Nice work everyone.

"Oh no more people know about the voting. Disqualify Ken please!"

Totally legit.

Since Ken didn't beg you to vote for him or anything, right?


Oh hai Kurt. Yes he asked to vote for him. If that is a bad thing than political campaign elections would go nowhere. I'm pretty dsure the muthic group has done the same with Ben's.


Muthic Group? That place sounds awesome, where can I join?

Yeah SK15 asked people to go to this thread and vote on which one we thought was best, but his legitimately is the best. Those other pictures look like they were made by f.ucking retards.

Lol at burritosenior and his f.aggot posse getting butthurt their pictures suck d.ick.

Ban please.

I don't mean to be a rootin' tootin' taller tell but he has clearly somehow passed the profanity filter. I didn't even know that was possible.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I think mine got cut off a bit in the transfer onto Bungie.net through photoshop. But I am happy the artwork was okay.

I want to know though, what filters did Ben use.

Do you know what kind of hat I'm wearing?

A party hat; you don't get one. An honor will this party be, a party in your honor, for your honor. Some of Tfear's personal guards are going to be there. You'll be introduced shortly.

Prepare to die.

HOffman really put some work into that!! Gets my vote, cheers. :D
Quality Medieval rendering. I wonder what battle that is supposed to be?

It's The battle of the Golden Spurs .
I thought that it would be quite symbolic since the underdog unexpectedly won the battle.

Also, here is the original image, I don't have the necessary drawing skills to make my own image from scratch.

Basically, you have no proof that we do what you're alleging we do, yet can find 30 threads where we do it? 0/10.

Congrats to whoever wins, though. I'm sure there were alot of submissions, so getting this far was an accomplishment.

You don't know the half of it.

Pretty sad when people start cheating in community forum contests for halo stickers and collectible coloring books.

The purpose of this discussion topic is to appreciate the creativity of the people who participated, not to worry about people inviting their friends to join the party. I don't care if someone starts a SuperPAC to turn out the voters. More people enjoying the contest is more people enjoying the contest.

Nice job, Ken. I mean, you ain't won yet, but I don't mind you raising awareness for something that brings together the community.

As you were...

Aren't those guys Mythic members? Shouldn't they be the most dignified and respectable members on the forums?

F***ing cheaters.
Surely if we're conspiring, I would just be saying 'vote for me' as voting between 2 people wouldn't be so productive...Just leave it be.

and Ken, I didn't use any blending options, and I try to stick away from filters. Just made most of the images all black and white and messed with value levels (Ctrl+L in Photoshop CS5) until it looked suitable. Added film grain as a pattern and noise across the whole thing when I was done. Darkened and lightened a few bits with a brush, added shadows on the 'shopped marines on the bottom right.

I dont really need to nor do I care too. Everyone and their mom knows that you guys conspire against the kid. Its sad how much you guys care about the moves that another man makes.

Look at how up in arms you got over him just being a contestant in it? SMH its sad really.

Good job SK. Keep up the good work bro. I really did like your submission the most.
