It feels like we've had two finals to me already as Carlos has pulled more votes than Mike McMahon and Kev O'Neill - both of whom I thought could well get to the final. In earlier rounds to polling over no less lights than Steve Dillon and John Ridgway. It's been an incredible path to the final and it's hard to see anyone who could pull more votes.

Then we consider Cam who has been called favourite over Ian Gibson, Simon Bisley, Brett Ewins and Ron Smith, so that's pretty astonishing too. Can Cam Kennedy pull of the shock of the Century - the 22nd that is. I'll say this now as it won't make a difference but he'd get my vote - if I had one.

For the title FAVOURITE CLASSIC ART DROID just pop the name of the art droid you'd most like to grab bronze. It really helps if you use BOLD tags or otherwise make your vote clear.

Cam Kennedy - more info

OR

Carlos Ezquerra - more info

I'll close and count on the morning of Friday 12th February

What the hell is all this? Find out more about the Art Droid Tourneys and Quarter Finals[/s] semi finals - I've not updated this - cos we know what we're doing right. There's a tiny bit more about the Semi's here but it's mainly just a post about what's coming after...

Who made the 32 in both tourneys?

Rules for what they are worth again not updated as we're getting good at this now aren't we.

Anything else just ask and I'll make something up.

Carlos Ezquerra

Would the prog be here without him? Dredd, Strontium Dog, countless other contributions. There is only one King Carlos!

I'll add that I grew up on American comics. I never truly had a "favorite" artist but had a few favorites. That all changed when I started reading 2000AD. His art immediately gripped me, it was different than anything I had seen and I knew it was special. He quickly became my favorite artist and I've not looked back. He does humor, horror, action, western, and war comics better than anyone I've seen, he truly was/is the King of comic artist!

This is a dream final for me with my two favourite classic artist going head-to-head.

When I see Johnny Alpha in my mind it is Carlos' depiction of the character. He created my two favourite Dredd mega epics as well.

Cam's art is the art that I immediately felt in love with when I started reading the prog. He is Rogue Trooper in my mind. His Dredd and MC-1 of wonder. He created some of the most memorable Dredd characters like Kenny Who? and the The Taxidermist.

So my choice is Cam Kennedy

When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.

Cam has delivered some outstanding work over the years, but for me it has to be King Carlos.

The only way I can approach this is to ask myself "who would I want to see one more strip from, at the height of their artistic peak?".  For that, I'd go for an early-ish Carlos Strontium Dog, thankyouverymuch.

So, Carlos.

There could only ever have been one result so I'm very happy to be voting for Carlos Ezquerra
