Is it OK if I vote too? I've missed Sketchy's "pageants" all this time that work schedules and RL took up all my time. Anyway,I can always vote in the next one. Great work as always Sketchy.

Thank you for the ratings and comments! The polls are now closed, the results are in...
10th place: Gigi. I actually love the expression she's making. Obviously I had a choice whether to use this picture, or a more ...normal... one, and I chose this one. I guess I was wrong. Apologies to Language Arts Lad! I owe you a nice picture of Gigi! The outfit was the Easter Egg (EE) in this scene, I suppose you could count Shvaughn, too.
9th: Thomas Keene. I guess the fact that he's not well known contributed to his poor ratings. Yes, he's using a stylus, but I neglected to make it a dupli-stylus! Oops! His guest stars are Emerald Empress, who has been shown to be on a quest for immortality; Glorith, who deals in time, and Dreamy who has been shown to be vain.
8th: Laurel. A basic cheesecake shot, I know. That is supposed to be a Protean that she's leaning against. Not very obvious.
7th: XS. I love this shot of her, relaxing, dreaming about a super-being. Yes, the little "S" is the EE.
6th: Quantum Queen. I suppose it's a little dull. I did several sketches (look out for next year's anniversary special) but liked this one the most. Dawnstar's star symbol is the EE.
5th: Shadow Kid. Once I got the idea to make Elastic Lad into his staff, I couldn't think of anything else.
4th: Comet Queen. This one turned out exactly how I imagined it. There are times when the setting is as important as the model(s) and I honestly believed that I needed to show this the way I did. Umbra's "S" symbol is used as Sid's logo and the Ardeen/Ranzz family of four is at the fly-by window. That's Earth in the corner. I don't know why space is all rainbow-y. Can any of you scientists explain it?
3rd: Blok. Apologies to Doctor One, he's not fighting, but people sure did like his serenity! Those little fishy guys are from the new member tryout issue V3# 14, by Lightle. The whale in the bg looks like the Super Moby Dick of Space, and that is Lamprey on the left.
Tie for 1st: Animal Lad and Vril Dox. I don't know Vril's personality well, so I had to wing it. I'm glad so many caught the Leafy Hoody crop! I did several sketches of Animal Lad but the one I used was the first one. All the elements fit. I think all of the EE's were noted.
Our top FOUR contestants get to compete in another round!!!
The next four LW posters get to pick one of the following competitors:
Animal Lad Vril Dox Blok or Comet Queen
If you're second, you don't get to pick who the first person picked, and so on....
The top four will be shown from their shoulders up. What should be going on in that holo? A prop? A guest star? Be creative or keep it simple... remember, first come... first served!!!

Comet Queen smiling and winking! A few Legion Academy girls in the background in a "girls' night out" setting?

Blok, the acid-washed version of the Baxter run, making googly eyes at Mysa as they lean in for the kiss they never got to share but should have...
And You don't owe me anything Sketchy, you did a great job, I understood the facial expression- I just didn't care for it.

Argh. I wanted so badly to post my thoughts but I just got buried in work. >< I loved Vril's holo though {#2 for me}, so I thank thee greatly, Sketchy! XS was brilliant, as well, IMHO. {She was definitely my #1-- so cute.}
Anyway, I don't know Animal Lad, so for Vril again... how about a family portrait with him, Stealth and their evil spawn {whose name I forget}? I can get you references again but I'm thinking Stealth would looked annoyed and possibly a tad afraid of the child, Vril would be arrogant/cocky and the baby like, well, a green-skinned blond baby boy.

Wow! I knew you had a "fast sketching hand" but didn't realise you were *that* fast, Sketchy. No wonder you're called "Sketch Lad"!

The top four holos have been posted. Please name your choice for top 2. After the vote determines which final two will face off, their holo subject matter will be determined "first come, first served" style.
