Title: Favourite CURRENT art droid - QUARTERS - Leigh Gallagher or Simon Fraser
Post by: Colin YNWA on 27 January, 2021, 06:33:03 AM
Word for this vote - HERCULEAN

Two artists with a fine line that packs dynamic punch - but whose work do you prefer?

Leigh Gallagher - more info (http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=droid&page=profiles&choice=leighg)

OR

Simon Fraser - more info (http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=droid&page=profiles&choice=simonf)


Alas we have to pick our favourite and to do so just pop the name of the art droid you'd most like to go through to the Semi Finals, but please add anything else you'd like to say as well.

This one will close and be counted on the morning of Saturday 30th January

What the hell is all this? Find out more about the Art Droid Tourneys and Quarter Finals (https://forums.2000ad.com/index.php?topic=47294.0)

Who made the 32 in both tourneys?

I know we owe Simon a lot for all the Dante world-building, but I have to admit, and i don't know why, his style has never quite clicked with me.

Gallagher for me.

Leigh Gallagher. The art in Kingmaker is shockingly good!

Again, I've not had the opportunity to read Dante...hopefully one day.

You are missing out. Dante I believe is the best strip to appear in the prog.

Has to be Simon Fraser, I'm afraid. The architecture, the crazy perspectives, the crowsfeet and the dimpled flesh carry the day. 

And I say this regretfully, with visions of zombie Cromwell's head on a pike, privvies stuffed with the victims of psycho hobbits and a giant shark leaping out of a jacuzzi still fresh in my memory.

Simon Fraser scrapes in on this one.

The best...that's really saying something! I just need a decent collected edition...

He's right too.

Not sure if you can get the Hatchette hardbacks at a reasonable price still but that's the way to go if you can.

Well the fact that I'm not sure who will win this one - PAh who cares I'm acting like a big kid cos my fav is out. While I sulk like a brat you might as well vote here as its pretty close I think. I might come back in the morning to close this up and announce the result...

VOTING CLOSED

Okay this one wasn't quite as close as I thought. Maybe I just had the fear after Leigh Gallagher gathered enough votes to knock out another of my favourites last round going through against Steve Yeowell. Well either way and while he pulled a good number of votes, it was close to enough to prevent

Simon Fraser

swashbuckling into the semi-finals
