[SpongeJosh]

1.Andy Lambert1 - Khaos Theory
2.amines2058 - TorqueTatts
3.MrLongtheArtist - Refuel My Blitzspear

HM: Andy Lambert2 - Corpse Ride, IndigoPrime - Nemesis the Doorlock, MrSibson - Beware Deviants, Nic Freeman - Nemesis's Nemesis

[Woolly]

1st - Blackmocco - Nemesis the Warlock: If I was told this was an O'Neill original, I'd believe it. Superb!

2nd - Steven Denton - Nemesis Leaps Into Action: Such solid colours, and lovely linework. Great stuff.

3rd - Leigh S - A Bedtime Story: Always a pleasure to see Leigh's artwork. It's Torquemada's facial/helmet expression that makes this though, brilliant piece.

HM - MikeD - Thorny Nemesis: Think I'd have preferred this in B+W, but still a superb picture.

HMs. Allied72 & Judgerussell

Cheers, Dunk!

1. Simon Prime - The dynamic posing in this is brilliant, and above all else it hits the one, big thing I look for on the art comp. Would it make a good cover for the prog? HECK YES!

2. MikeD - Thats just chuffing brilliant. Star-scan worth stuff!

3. Andy Lambert1 - Nemesis and Deadlock is an underappreciated chapter in the Millsverse canon, so more of stuff like this is good.

HM -Allied72, Paul Moore, and Raggedman. All three of you I wanted to put into a separate entry of top threes, but my god was this a close call!

[-MikeD-]

1 - Andy Lambert 2... Corpse Ride. Obviously a great drawing, but also a neat and humourous idea.

2 - Nic Freeman... Nemesis' Nemesis. Feels iconic, yet unique. And I like bright colours.

3 - Simon Prime... It's hard to make a character as ridiculous as Nemesis look like part of the recognisable, physical world, but I think this picture achieves that.

HM's... Leigh S for the detail, Steve Denton for the lighting, JudgeRussell for the fun, Raggedman for the design and Indigoprime for going there.

HM
Andy Lambert1 - Khaos Theory

[Albion]

3) Albion - Be Pure, Be Vigilant, Behave! - wonderfull design

To be fair the design work was done by some horrible nazi seventy odd years ago.
I thought it rather suited Torquemada so I did my version.

[ThryllSeekyr]

Remember that discussion we had about the warlocks apparent lack of genitalia & how some of you said it's built into his alien snout. Well, this was going to my them for my work, but tastefully done.

I might submit this idea, but not as part of the competition like last time.

Excellent idea. Well executed.

[Dandontdare]

another crop of wonderful entries, I could choose a dozen, but I'll go for ...

3^rd RaggedMan - love the colour scheme and a classic story revisited!
2^nd - Andy Lambert 2 - (Corpse Ride) - Andy may have split his vote this time as they were both great, but this one had extra chuckle value.
1^st - Simon Prime - For a moment I thought this was a photo of a model, the 3D effect is stunning.

[RaggedMan]

Impossible choices, my top 3 could be number 1, my HMs could be top 3

1st Black Mocco - it evokes grotesque with simplicity of line
2nd Leigh S - brilliant characterisation, great colours, like Nemesis recast as romantic hero
3rd Nic Freeman - i think based on my fave 2000ad cover. Torquemada as a grafitti/skateboard/madball design.

HM - Mr Sibson - old skool zine feel, MikeD- story in an image, great line work, Adam Lambert - both, just brilliant

[Fungus]

Some entries seem to have vanished so it would be wrong to vote on this one.
