Wow! Some super duper awesome entries in July so you guys totally rock! The judges had a very difficult time picking just six, and there was a lot of griping and banging fists. In the end, everybody had some pizza and it was all good. 😀

July contest entries.
1st Place – If the Death Walk
Artist – Shozai
Love the lighting on this piece. The strong rim-lighting gives it a very sinister mood, and defines the shape of the monsters. Lady Littlefox’s Werewolf Hunter outfit, is beautifully accentuated by the pose of the girl, and also by the wonderful camera angle. The glowing red eyes on the girl and the bones on the ground, further add to the ambiance of this wonderful bad-ass composition.
Seeing this image makes me want to buy the outfit! Awesome work!
2nd Place – Break at the End of the World
Artist – Ippotamus
Wonderfully creative scene, with great details and depth. Excellent juxtaposition of the regular and mundane, with the ruination of the World. Wonderful details with the records strewn all over the floor, together with the rubble, which further emphasizes the message of the piece.
Finally, there is the red record box, which draws the viewer’s eyes, representing music, fun, and good times. The red color of the box matches little bits of the girl’s clothing, which helps to bring both figures together, as well as differentiate them from the gray backdrop of Stonemason’s wonderful City Ruins Bundle.
Love it!
3rd Place – Mech2012
Artist – ShawnBooth
Great realistic lighting! Just fantastic use of light and shadow to perfectly showcase the richness and complexity of the excellent Mech 2012 Enforcer by Stonemason. Another great example of a very compelling image that makes me want to buy the product.
Masterful lighting and post-work!
