Or because he is having people make alts for him as evidenced by numerous screenshots posted in this thread.


It's a poll of opinion, obviously more people have an opinion that Ken's is better.

Quit being so upset that others don't share your views.


And again, on those same screenshots you can see he never once told people to make alts. Don't spread lies.

But they are the only reason he is winning. He relies on people to make alts for him. I just hope he doesn't rely on that sort of thing irl.


Spartain Ken?

Don't patronize me. I read a -blam!-load of stuff, just not stuff that doesn't interest me and not when I am tired. Now have a good night.


Anyone who advertises the fact that they are incapable of reading more than a few sentences deserves all the patronization they get.

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

I think the last ten pages of this thread are just posts about alts and stuff. How sad :(

It's a shame that more couldn't have been accepted into the finals.

I think mk LITE should win, as he clearly hasn't been begging for votes or using alts.

The submissions could all benefit from more cleavage, and less alt accounts spamming the vote button. Just saying, you should give the people what they want.

They should just make an HLG playlist then you guys can hide against each other and see how much fun it is.

This thread is gold.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

All Ken's is, is a bunch of pictures cut out and put into a collage.


Ben's looks photo realistic, down to the splashing water made by the ODSTs.


Ben's submission is just cut-outs of ODSTs, Scarabs, and other things pasted over real Marines and such, only they had their colors tweaked.

The splashing water around the ODSTs was not added by Ben. Those are places where actual Marines were wallowing through the water, and Ben just pasted over them.

Ken's pictures also had to be carefully laid out and cropped so that they didn't improperly overlap, or mesh into each other oddly, and fit the actual poster that he used as a template.

The differences are not as extreme as you make them out to be.

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.

I meant that you did a fantastic job of making Master Chief appear to fit into the setting and style. Still though, I thoroughly enjoy Medieval battlefields. My personal favorite is Battle of Hastings. The infamously long Bayeux Tapestry is an incredible depiction of the event.


Thanks :-)

I was actually considering combining the tapstry and mister chief on a moa, but it looks a little off.

Those are not Marines in the real picture.

Right. Hey Deej, I'd like to split. I voted 400 times for Ken. I want to change those so 200 go to Ben and 200 go to Irish.

Thanks, but no thanks. Even if I'm not begging or ALTing, my entry simply isn't the best one here.

No marines bottom right, you're half right. The splashes are only highlighted by me, with minor shadows added to the water.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

In my artistic opinion Ken's picture completely fails in being defined as Historical Fiction. It looks more like Future Fiction to me. Uncle Sam spans to much time.

Voting for Plain Ben, great work on that image.

Same goes for evryone else, nice work.

I'm offended by the picture of Uncle Sam. Uncle Sam is an American Icon, and Ken has modified it for his own personal gain. He is disrespecting part of our nation's history and, with that icon, the nation as a whole. Thus he is being intolerant and should not be allowed to win.

Ben's picture, on the other hand, is just one of many pictures taken on that day. And his picture in honor of our fallen troops is glorious, as it honors not only our past, but our future as America overcomes even more struggles in our continuity.
