Here is my cover. I was a little pressed for time at the end. This is also my first attempt at digital painting and i'm not to happy with how it turned out. Fpr a first time i guess it is okay. All the covers turned out badass Btw.

Hi-res

My entry... i shoulda had this finished days ago so i could get more critics, other then a hand full of people, but i kept getting distracted XD
Done in Flash 8 ... Why? .... Cuz i don't have photoshop.

Good luck to everyone who has submitted, and to anyone who may still be working like mad trying to make deadline!

This is my entry, You cant believe the delays i've been facing, but finally....here it is, hope you like.
one more thing......for reasons i dont understand, photoshop was unable to save my pic into any of the normal formats like Jpeg or bitmap, so i had to trick it to get it saved, but unfortunately at the quality's expense :(

Wow! Some really amazing submissions!!

For me, this contest was a swift-kick-to-the-...skull reminder of how horrible I am with photoshop and photorealism! It isn't actually done, and the background is just a image from google... but I wanted to feel like I participated. lol!

I know, I know! I fail! blah! :P

alright here is a painting i did with acrylic paint. Turns out my scanner was not big enough for the entire image. The only thing missing is part of the monster emerging from that pipe hole on the right side.... guess it doesn't matter. it still looks bad ass to me =).

The most detailed one focused on a single character. @____@ This piece took around three weeks, 50-60 hours (including two all-nighters). Title pays homage to classic Elevator Action arcade game. :D
Unfortunately I did run out of time, so I had to settle for less detail and finesse than I initially wanted.... I'll definitely go back and add more stuff after the contest.

Extensive research was done on the gun (Beretta 92F) and grenades (three frag grenades, a stun grenade and an incendiary hand grenade) for accuracy. Gun has threaded barrel for silencer and also bottom rail to mount laser sight. She also has a Japanese shortsword (Wakizashi) for secondary arms.

NOTE: 'tengen' is the name I use for all my works (from screenname / DA / etc. ), but the name was taken already on Newgrounds so I used 'sakerfalcon' instead when I registered.

Please, please, please view the higher resolution image to appreciate the detail. A lot of detail gets smushed and destroyed when resized to 700px high, jpeg format, and under 150kb.

Original: 2400 x 3000 @ 300dpi, 188 layers.

1200 x 1500 with title and text (1.16mb)
1200 x 1500 Without title and text (1.11mb)

EUUUGGGGHHHH I hate how much detail I lost because of the resize ;[ If anyone wants to see the original version, click here. Since it was my first try at photorealism, and one of few completed projects, I took tons of screenshots haha, so they're all there too.

Really amazing submissions, though. I can't wait to see who won!!!
