Battlescapes Results!

[bonesiii]

Across the landscape of imagination they raced to enter the fray – they battled, sparks (and bricks) flew, and three emerged victorious! Please join me in congratulating CrunchbiteNuva, Aanchir: Rachira of Time, and Kevinhink as the winners of the LEGO Battlescapes General Artwork contest!Here are the winning images. Titles link to the original entry posts.1^st Place – Persona – by CrunchbiteNuvaFor his top win with this brilliantly metaphoric psychological interpretation of the contest theme, Crunchbite will receive a LEGO gift card worth $95 (will ship $80 sets)!2^nd Place – Swarm of the Century – by Aanchir: Rachira of Time Click for fullsize:With this action-packed, pony-ified Bionicle battle with the bug bots, Aanchir will receive a LEGO gift card worth $50 (for $40 sets).3^rd Place – LEGO® Wild West vs. Classic Space – by KevinhinkFinally, for this technicolor wild west clash with oldschool star explorers, Kevinhink will receive a LEGO gift card worth $30 ($20 sets).Congratulations to our winners![Edit: So, turns out I read the gift card system wrong, and you can only go by increments of five dollars. Previously announced amounts have thus been rounded up to the nearest five. ]HONORABLE MENTIONSCrunchbiteNuva also won the #2 spot in the “final” poll; as we allowed multiple entries per member, but each member can only win once among the prize-awarded 1^st-3^rd Places. Here is that entry:Roodaka Vs. Toa Hagah – by CrunchbiteNuvaDue to the readjusting because of CrunchbiteNuva's two poll wins, in the “final” poll this moved up two images to tie for 3^rd Place. A tiebreaker was run, and Kevinhink won, earning the 3^rd Place spot. But the other image by Onewa7 was very good too and deserves a mention!Battle in Mangaia – by Onewa7Thanks to all the artists and voters who participated! Now go enter the Flash Fire - Character Design Contest before it's too late!

I'm so happy to have placed within the top three for the first time in a BZPower art contest! I'm proud of myself, and proud of the other winning entrants. All of them were stunning, and to be honest I wasn't sure I would even stand a chance of placing with how much talent there was in this contest.

Ooh... What a conglomeration of beautiful artwork! The winner isn't exactly what I think of when I hear "battescape" but I guess that's part of the originality. It does look really cool, though. Kind of like a movie poster, too. And the graininess is a nice effect. And it's a cool sort of "epic rival confrontation" thing, too, like a Star Wars duel. Awesome.

 

My Little... Bionicle? Okay... Well, I love it. Tahu with hooves... What a concept. How many more times with those poor Toa undergo transmogrification?

 

Ooh, space vs. cowboys. What strange warp in space and time is going on here...? But it's a cool picture. Is this based on a scene from Lego Battles? :eyeroll:

 

The Honorable Mentions are really good, too. Congratulations, all you winners!

Perhaps it's time we retire this thread, haha.
