the um, Trinity Guardian CI 'nods'

Here's your winner for this Monday, it's Captain Howdy:



Here's Howdy looking very noble and heroic, of course there's the Shakespearean vibe because of the skull, but that is just a small part of this. Take a look at the drama that he's created with those background pieces. A good lesson in the less is more ethos here. Howdy's created a huge amount of impact by using bold but simple pieces. The contrast between the black floor and the foaming water is great, too, it almost makes it look as though the floor is actually dissolving. Doesn't the rocky forground finish things off nicely too, a very good framing piece for this look.

The less is more theme continues with the avatar itself, and creates a pretty slick and stylish look. I especially like the use of the fur collar with the plague doctor cloak, those look fabulous together! That ambigous expression gives nothing away about whether we have a good or bad guy here, could go either way couldn't it? Which do you think it is?

Ohhh, awesome avi captain! Congrats :)

Less is more, GOT IT!!
Congratulations, Captain Howdy! Who doesn't love a little Macbeth-ula? :D

haha Go Howdy.

This is a nice surprise!

Thank you very much, jelly. ;D

Awesome job! Creepy and a bit past me but still very nicely done.

That avatar is awesome, but front page shows wrong winner name, says it's some Raven-Kunoichi, at least for me.

Yeah that was me being an idiot, I transposed two of numbers in the user ID

wow, technical stuff

well yeah fixed it 'nods'

Congrats Captain Howdy. :D

Congrats, Howdy!

Hey Jelly, I think your avie is pretty spiffy too!

That's alright, Jelly, just thought I would let you know. :)

Sadrain, you have a darling avatar there :)

congratulations Howdy 'nods'

Congrats to Howdy! It's a great avatar! Admins pick never ceases to amaze me!

Your winner for today is Cora:!



Just look at this undersea goddess! I bet that she's pulled hundreds of sailors down to their deaths in the clear blue waters of her realm. She makes me think of swirling whirlpools and sudden shadows that block out the sun as you swim deeper and deeper. So very creepy, but so very pretty!

Congrats, Cora!

Congratulations to Cora, it's really interesting avatar. :)

Wow, Thank you Knerd ^.^

YES... go Cora 'does happy dance'
