Okay I hope everyone is working hard on a background for this. It has been two days and not even one response to it.
It's definitely the first topic in awhile that has piqued interest.
If inspiration hits, I'll do one...maybe...if inspiration hits, that is.
It could work as a background i suppose, but i wanted to contribute something.

My very first post (after a couple of years of reading), so here goes nothing...
Wow you have been a member for a year now and this is your first post....I am glad I could inspire you to come out of lurking mode. ;)
Lurking? Possibly. Sitting, reading, learning. Definately.
And yes, this particular competition caught my attention. Your challange sat in the back of my head, and fermented into the piece I've posted. I'm a little suprised there's not more of a response, half-way through the alotted time. This forum just has to be jam-packed with vintage comic readers.
I think alot of people are worried more about the ATC then this. Oh well the odds are good for both entries so far. 50/50 you can't beat that.
Only 5 more days if you count today.
Okay, chill out jrl. :)

i vote for seleceus.
Seleceus. He has made no photoshop (No offence Scuthbert, but I think he has put more effort...)
Ozwalled's is cool, too... But Selectus is new... A way to say "welcome"!
Seleceus.
EDIT: and I didn't much like mine. I totally figured everyone would think it was crap.
Seleceus too! But I liked your too, Ozwalled.
Seleceus
I'm not sure what Scuthbert did there, is it a copy/paste work? Did he paint over a picture?
I don't like Seleceus entry (no offense) mostly because of the carpet, it's gridy
So, I vote for Ozwalled
I think Ozwalled's entry is funny, but I think Seleceus' entry is much more detailed and tidy. :)
I vote Seleceus. Welcome to the boards, by the way.
i also vote for Seleceus.
Well, I'm truly overwhelmed. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again.
Personally I vote for Scuthbert. I about fell out of my chair when I noticed the 'Stair master', after about the 10th time of looking at it.

I see your point, but wasn't going for carpet. I was trying to get a brushed concrete feel, but couldn't find a texture combo that worked well, obviously.
Ozwalled: I love the water effects, and the BenGay, but what is the story behind the nail-in-the-board? My wife and I spent 20 minutes coming up with goofy scenerios that it would fit in.
Well, the nail in the board wasn't supposed to be anything more than a primitive weapon... Sure, it was great in its time against the evil Dr. Perforatable, but now, it's just not so impressive against modern supervillains.
Looks like Seleceus wins. Congratulations!!! For winning you get the honor of starting the next BG Blitz.
Thank you. A new post will be up shortly.
