In honor of our one year anniversary next month, this month's Art Challenge is to design and draw our new Post-Crisis DC2 Banner!
Draw it, color it, and make it look as good as possible. This is the image that will represent the site for the immediate future so it has to be something super! Present at least most of the main Justice League members in some type of pose. It can be pin-up or action style. That's pretty much it. Post it in this thread to submit!
You have until midnight on Friday, August 25th to get your entries in. After that we'll put up a poll and vote. The image with the most votes will be the new main banner for the site. The Banners will most likely be changing on a more regular basis so the length of time the winning image will be displayed is at the sole discretion of the Administrators.
There you have it! Have fun guys!!

Extra kudos if you design a PRE IXE Powers, Inc banner... Because September is POWERS, INC month, where you'll be saying not one, not two, not three, maybe four issues of the ever so popular series! And look, I was able to say "ever so popular" with a straight face! Have at it  |

Hmm.....I may already have something....I just need to redo J'Onn in his DC2 duds.....we'll see how much time I have this month to devote to it, but I'm thinking I can bring the goodness.

Nice! My only complaint would be that the colouring is a tad off in some of the pieces, but the layout is clever and inspired! Nice work... And why do you make Barry's symbol small? And why is Deadshot standing like a go-go dancer?

I really like it! I can't quite put my finger on it, but something about it makes it "tops" in my book. |

As I have said numerous times before my coloring stinks! That being said I merely colored this to give everyone the idea of what it would look like finished. If it is chosen I would gladly welcome one of our numerous Coloring Masters to put the magical touches on it. Flash's symbol? It looks right to me, it's not suppose to be like Superman's "s". Deadshot likes to dance. Thanks Starlord.I wanted to have a Banner that represented as many of the fantastic series displayed on this site as I could while at the same time not appearing to be jumbled. ;D

very well done leadslinger, yeah the colroing is off but we all know that you are using a program that isnt too good for coloring but it isnt something to sneeze at, at all. comics didn't always have all kinds of shading and stuff like that in the colors and they were equally good if not better at times than what we see today. very well done.

Thanks KevinI did my best Kevin to get my Message across about people voting for your banner Kevin its that good! I pity the fool who don't vote for ya! Kevinyou know Subtle (Was it 3 times for people to remember?.. Kevin) Oh well Best of luck to you Car dude, Car, only two people have their banners up, we've still got something coming from Ramon, maybe from you, maybe from LOADS of other artists on the site, so I wouldn't jump to no conclusions! I personally wouldn't mind seeing if Borize pulls something out of his endless supply of amazing art pieces, and I just think it's a bit too early to jump on one guy's back and start singing his praises! I love Kevin's piece, it's AMAZING (The Question! You obviously get extra kudos for that!) but I can't WAIT to see what everyone else pulls out! |

No, I didn't pay him. (cheque's coming) Wonderful banners so far. I like both a lot. I don't know if I'll find the time to do a banner. But I'm really looking forward to see the other banners you guys did or are going to do. |

For some reason I can't help but imagine that is D's hand. Well, I don't own any tweed--- some houndstooth, lots of argyle, the tartan of my family clan, the Livingstons, and the odd plaid--- but no tweed. But now that you mention it... |

Nice stuff Roy and Kev!
I'm glad Ramon pushed ahead the contest. I should have something up by next week, but I also want to see more of what our art department has to offer. There's some serious talent here and it's always exciting to see what comes forth.
Now, back to inking!
