**Digital_Blacksmith** · February 5th, 2008, 05:40 AM

Jake Kobrin - Attacker
B- you swing your massive axe through the air over your head, your oponent turns to run away

Digital_Blacksmith - Defender
A - your aura changes , you realize the way of the world, you are enlightened on the battlefield and no harm can possibly befall you.

When you give the ok Jake, the battle begins, and ill update with the deadline.

Theres nothing better than a massive demon slicing a prissy little elf in half. mmmmmm... dinner is served

..............I think you might have someones character mixed up with mine.....There is no way in hell I would use an elf.....EWW.....nice painting skills though.
Mines coming along....should have it up very soon.

"As one of Kobrins demons attacked the temple, a single monk sat inside, meditating. Just before the demon broke inside, a massive burst of energy surrounded the temple. The monk had become one with the universe, and used his power to defend his home from the demon. The power surged over the beast, burning him alive in the holy energy."

So Jake, you cut em, I cook em? I guess were ready for judging! This is interesting though. Without really knowing what eachothers characters are, we have angel vs demon, good vs evil, dark vs light, and all that with our two paintings. Evil the layouts are opposites. Cool.

Good luck.

jake wins
The piece has a strong sense of fluidity an dynamism, while digital's piece is very flat and symetrical. I also dont get the sense from Digital's that he is in a battlefield

Jake Korbin
better acheived image
and i like his character development
and that axe looks baddass

Jake – althoguh I am still concerned over your shiny render over an unsound base structure/ I e on the big guy the armpit seems to attach to the center of the chest…..and the elf has no cranium, but the over all composition is dynamic and the render is very good

Digital Blacksmith - Even if it isn’t, your image looks constructed and mirrored. Its as if all the elements are there but it just doesn’t quite hang together, part of the problem is the centered and sememtrical composition which anchors everything and makes the whole image static.
