Official Last Man Standing 2 Website and Match Index

You wanted another Last Man Standing Thunderdome. You wanted it bigger, better, stinkier, and nastier than the first. Well, Sallies, I think it's safe to say you got it.

271 initial contenders over 4 rounds of randomly paired mayhem. 396 new pieces of artwork. 1 winner. And not one 1-on-1 battle.

The Round Breakdown:

Round I: 271 initial contenders in 3 (one 4) man battles
Round II: 90 contenders in 3 man battles
Round III: 30 contenders in 6 man battles
Final Round IV: 5 contenders, one winner.

Topic:

The Great Discovery
Make it epic, make it dynamic, make it compelling! You've got 5 other opponents in this round that are going to be working their asses off to make what are sure to be amazing images, so push it to the limit.

Some of the top industry talent this fine forum has to offer will be judging each round and deciding who advance to the next round. The matches are a massive 6 man battle so the scoring will be a bit different this time. The voting will be a point system; 6 points for 1st place, 5 for 2nd, and 4 for 3rd, 3 for 4th, 2 for 5th, 1 for 6th.

Judges for Round Three:

Aleksi
Dan Dos Santos
Greg Manchess
Irene Gallo
Living Rope
Lyon
Manu is Malin

Quick note: krytical_error's entry was moved to match 2 and JoshuatheJames' entry was moved to match 3. This was decided randomly to help even out the amount of contenders in each match.

That being said, kickass artwork yet again from you magnificent bastards. You make poppa proud.

To the Match 2 contenders - You really brought the good stuff this round, I truly wish I could have been more competition for your truly gorgeous entries.

[robinchyo]

Excellent stuff people. I've been F5'ing the Finally Finished section along with the tdome thread the past two days for news about this thread and it was well worth the wait! To my competitors...what more can I say than "GULP!!" Best of luck to all of you..and myself

PS- Sorry for messing up the forums..again

[bumskee]

holy cow.. god damn... awsome..just awsome......

[sve]

Gorgeous entries, it is magic in huge concentration.

[FlipMcgee]

Oh, I see. 5 winners from this round to advance to the finale.

My first 3 picks: m@, viag, vyle

If shadowman is in that group...eeeeekkkk, that would be one scary last round.

I wish one of the ladies win it all though

[mwillustration]

some sweeeeeeet stuff here!

my faves out of all of them:
shellywan, icon, m@, jasonchan.

man, round three and i'm JUST about (completely) done with my round one piece!


davepalumbo, you're piece looks similar to one of my own.
check my site to see what i mean.
-great minds?

[Mr.Blonde]

sweeeet, second look, jason chan, haha..

icon, i love it. not sure what's going on but i don't need to know to love it!

m@, vyle, viag, you know i love yours

shelly wan, beautifully painted.. i don't quite get it, but i think that's my fault and not yours.

rusty, haha, great idea.. muppets rock

robinchyo: I liked it, good idea, but you should've had something that was really visually different at the end to signify by how you painted it that it was the great discovery, lying there peacefully didn't signify "great" to me.. still, very nice piece!
i will give you a hug. i love them all dammit


PS: robinchyo... F5 forever! I think i wore out the button

[robinchyo]

Oh, and another thing. I'm really glad that there were quite a few humorous takes on the theme, here! Muppet terrorism (love the concept) , transvestites (Jason, you're a dirty, filthy man and I hope you clean up your act), Superman (lol, I'd love to see what the DC people have to say about this one) and bread (lolol) . Who would've thunk it??

[Icon]

oh ........ nobody ever posts up their titles...well, I think I need to post mine up, because I actually thought up the title before the actual painting.

"The Medical Ages of LSD"

there... with that out, I feel much better... Especially looking at all this kick ass art! I love the different takes on it, from super serious, to all out hillarious! I'm pretty happy with everyone's results..... and you guys were all sad about it. wimps

[Mr. Visions]

Woooooooooow!!!!......Woooooooooooooooow!!!! There are soooo many pieces that carry not only meaning but a vast amount of beauty along with them, you guys deserve a huge amount uproar of an applause. This could be one of the highest quality rounds I've seen to date. Don't fault the judgesif they have to take their time with this one -
