It's difficult to choose just one favorite. They're all great. For me I think it's a tie between Toby's "Kyudo," a lovely tribute to traditional Japanese painting, and JJB's "Profile Pic," for its sense of humor as well as its sense of foreshadowing.
ReplyDeleteYes, its very hard to choose. I like all of them but my favorite is "Rebirth" by Andy Park.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is Andy Park's "Rebirth". It has been my wallpaper since it was released!!! Not only is the piece itself amazing but I also am a fan of Andy's work (specially his run on Top Cow's Tomb Raider comics), so seeing his take on the new Lara is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI like Kyudo, and Profile Pic, but my by far favourite is Into The Darkness.
ReplyDeleteIt was really hard for me to choose between "Into the Darkness" and "Kyudo," but the latter won out. I really love the style of it.
ReplyDeleteI chose between "into the darkness" and Rebirth, simply because Lara looks the most grown up in them. I dislike in particular the ones resembles Japanese manga, that is not Lara, and it never has been. Lara was an adult complex character, until recently.. Still, looking forward to the upcoming game.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I do like Toby's Kyudo to. :)

ReplyDeleteFor me, First Prize has to go to "Into the Darkness" by Brian Horton, because it's the closest to the released gameplay character. Like some other comments, if I were doing the awards, Second Prize would go to "弓道 Kyudo" (the art of archery) by Toby Gard, for simple, classic style.
ReplyDeletei like the wolf's den. also into the darkness. i also pray that square enix doesnt mess up this TR game. i have my reasons for saying that, but i still would grab this.
ReplyDeleteStella, I'm completely with you: those were my pics exactly. Toby's pictorial sense shows us that the original is the best, but that profile pic is so cheeky--I had never thought of Lara doing that, but of course she'd have some social profile, friends, etc.
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween Stella and to all the rest of yall raiders ^_^
ReplyDeleteFor me it was a close call between 'Rebirth' and 'Into the darkness.' Finally chose 'Rebirth,' though I have to say all the art is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI like Shipwrecked Beach, because it's someone's personal take on Lara :)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is 'Rebirth.' But I can tell that all r great as well.
