I received some questions on my "pie" entry, but there is nowhere to comment, so here is a place where you can answer questions about your own entry, or ask question or comment on someone else's.

First, mine: Yes I drew the berry filling. Yes I drew the plate. I was also disappointed after I posted it because I used the lily pad to make the texture on the plate and in my big image you can see the nice texture and shape of the bumps from the lily pad on the glass. It did not show in the small version. Thanks for the comments.
I could not think of anything for this stupid source and I wasted a whole day and a half. I was doing it at midnight the night before. I was not happy with it and after I posted it I notice a lot of things wrong with it but it was too late. Thanks for the sympathy. Drinks are on me!!
Please comment on your entries. (not active ones )
Second: Did Stive use a picture of Micose in a Micose style to fool us?

stupid lillypad

True True

I'll have you know, I worked many long hours on mine! As soon as I got the source I got to work on my brilliant idea and didn't let up until deadline time.

Did anyone appreciate it!? NO!!

Not one single vote... I'm very disappointed.

most of peopel werent fooled...so i guess what he wanted to happen, didnt happened....how come people thought the easy-quicky-crappy chop of a face (not my face tho ReyRey i think...) could have been mine....??? seriously it would look like my work maybe viewing it at 200 feet of distance....

I had no chance to win against Marco, it was recognized its style, discouraged, disappointed ......

I voted for Marco's because it was a good idea with good execution.

Agree, that was more like watercolor than the Micose painting style. Congrats!

Reyrey which is your best entry in 2nd round ?

I like Mikey's elephand entry.

Rey rey voted for me, it is a good judge

No 3d work at all

Lilly pad is all source as is the water and the some rock texture.
Plants done in PS
out side source was palm leaves and sky
dragonfly/wasp was just that a dragon fly joined to a wasp body to get the angle right

Oh and lens flare...said was going to use lens flare in round 2

Saving warp for round 3

I do agree with you that it can be very discouraging to battle against someone who has a known style like Micose,Serious or Marco.

Here is my fav of the round:


This looked like a tedious chop!

I suspected that you did it all from the source and your own skills, but I must say...write a damn tutorial on how to draw pie filling so that whenever I am craving it, I can just draw myself a huge pie, please.

yeah, reggies was a pretty good one

Favorites of the round were Mikey's Elephant (just more my stlye than the dog one) and screwloose's stingray
