A very promising start to 2014's competitions - and the voting was intense as Bob and Fester were neck-and-neck right until the finish - ! Remember you can find out about those behind the pictures and more over on the comp facebook page --> https://www.facebook.com/2000adartcomp


THARG'S CHOICE goes to Allied72's self-portrait - old green bonce had the hardest time picking through this flattering collection!

DROID'S CHOICE

This month's droid is the most handsome man in comics! Mr Leigh Gallagher who posted his top choices on the voting thread (http://forums.2000adonline.com/index.php/topic,39970.msg807919.html#msg807919):

QuoteSeriously guys, I know it's the type of cliched thing you hear all the time, but everyone did a brilliant job with so many varied and imaginative ideas.

FIRST:  ARCHIE - FLINTISH THARG.  An excellent piece that really stood out for me because it's so damned different in style! He has an oh so subtle alien quality about him, and I loved the future design details in the background.

SECOND: UNCLE FESTER - COSMIC THARG.  More of an old school style here. This is how I picture the boss when he's waiting on my pages to come. Fantastic detailed background!

Really struggled with what to pick for third place. It was either Antdonnel- Big Jobs, Dedaman 1971 - Tharg vs Thrillsuckers , SKD - Tharg's Thrills.... but in the end I picked....

THIRD: BOB MOLESWORTH - HEADACHE THARG. A very "Jon Davis Hunt" piece I think, especially in the colouring. He looks like the commanding figure you'd expect as head of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic. And props for that impressive, hypnotic background!

February's comp will be up before the day is out!

I add both congratulations to the winners and to CFM for organising! Also thanks for the HM's and votes to those of you who liked my tattooed Tharg, makes the hard work thinking and drawing worth it! See you in 20000BC.
