[QUOTE="Krail Stromquism, post: 2040296, member: 2400"] [b]And the Nominees are...[/b] So...I was sitting around watching 'Old Boy' and it reminded me, you know I should really get my reasoning up on Enworld. So here I am. Thats a unlucky turn of events with WAR but like I said to Kia Lord, the more Wayne works the more art he has out and the more recognition he'll get and that makes the world a better place. Or something like that. Anyhow, here basically a breakdown of my nominees. Remember that no matter how I picked them they all had one very important factor, when I closed my eyes I could see them rendered by the Hand O' Wayne! They had an clear evocative presence that I believe will lend itself to medium in which it shall be created...you see....I'm even confused now. So here ya go: Ok, first off there were way too many good ones in there and everyone should give themselves a big round of applause for putting up some great characters. I could tell a lot of love was put into them. The only way I could go at this task was to break my selections into catagories and thus build a list of potential winners. Thus here are my picks: BEST NAME THATS ALMOST MY CATS NAME: Ta’Vanka – Battle Maiden of Nol Dappa by MrFilfyIke Now you might be thinking Ta'Vanka isn't the best name you've ever heard BUT MrFilfyIke IS! Take into consideration that this little lovely has some very nice visuals, Otyough Tooth Necklace and Shrunken Heads you can see how this might be a really nice piece to illustrate. Also take into consideration my cats name is Filfy Kitty and thus we have our first pick! I didnt say any of this was going to make sense. It only makes real sense to me and if my logic makes any sense to you, seek immediate help. MOST DETAILED: Krellick Chergoba by Rawwedge This is a fur lined over detailed character description to put in the book "Really Detailed Descriptions of Characters Utilizing Fur and Fur Based Accesories." I figured some artists really enjoy detailed descriptions so this one had to make the list. I also thought this had a very WAResque Action scene, I could almost picture the rendered drawing. BEST SPELL: Wikanby by Whizbang Dustyboots My character Efrim would be envious of this little Kobold and his spell Wikanby's Dragon Bolt. Efrim wouldve added "... of DOOM!" but to each his own:) I also liked the fact he was non-human and reminded me a bit of the Kobold bard from NWN. BEST WRITTEN: Jaran Enverness by Eosin the Red I really liked the writting overall on this one, even though the mention of angels and teets scared me at first. It was well written and presented nicely. I am still not sure of his Shining Moment, would the picture be of him kicking butt or of him alseep? Im hoping for the butt kicking version myself. WEIRDEST ACTION SCENE: Lyrael by Zappo Overall this is a strong entry, and organised neatly. Everything was nice but the Action scene made me laugh. Its one of those ridiculous D&D scenes that happens probably far too often. The PC is totally hulked-out doing massive collatoral damage just trying to stay alive! Just all the spell effects going at once is enough to get this one into the running. OOPS I ROLLED A 20: Berandor Marikulis by Berandor I got a soft spot for using the name of yer fav Character and THUS Berandor makes the list! Thusly indeed, plus the fact that his Action Scene moment is SO the type of gaming that seems to happen to me. The last place you want a 20 and BANG! it happens. Thus I thus that in thusitude thusly Berandor makes it on the list with a very nice overall entry and a "man Ive killed my shape-shifted gold dragon mentor more times than I'd like to admit" moments. OK, so there you have it. Out of my brain straight onto your computer screen! and with out all the mess normally associated with such a procedure. Chan-wuk Park, Old Boy and Symapthy for Mr Vengence, and I hear he may be up to do the Evil Dead remake. Hmmmm. Well Kids, Im going to make sure Filfy Kitty has food and then Im off to dreamland, Good Night [/QUOTE]
