Help Us Choose the Fan Art Grand Prize Winner!

Help Us Choose the Fan Art Grand Prize Winner!

There were so many awesome entries for our HulkVs fan art contest, that we want your input to choose the winners.

By ComicBookMovie - Feb 02, 2009 03:02 PM EST
Filed Under: Hulk

We received over 100 entries to the HulkVs fan art contest, and they are all incredibly good. As outlined in the contest rules, our CBM editors will pick the grand prize winner--who will get a copy of the HulkVs DVD along with $200 dollars, but we want your help, so tell us who your favorites are in the comments section below.

We have 5 other copies of the DVD to give away but all the entries are so good, we are trying to see if Lionsgate will give us more. Those will be given out via a drawing -- meaning, we'll put all your names in a hat and simply pull out the ones who will get a DVD. That way EVERYBODY has a chance at a prize. Hopefully, Lionsgate will give us a ton more so we can reward more of you for your excellent efforts.

So, while we're waiting to find out how many more copies we can get, tell us who you think should win the grand prize and why. We have our favorites, but you comments may sway a vote, so let us know what you think. We'll announce the winners this week, so don't delay telling us your pick.

If you need to check all the entries out again, you can get to the gallery at this link.

My favorite would be John Conley's. The character's are not just standing there, there's a sense of motion both with Thor swinging the hammer and the Hulk's head whipping back. The characters are in their original costumes witch for a purist is a must, and the attention to human anatomy is something that not many of the other submissions payed much attention to. And last I like that he HAND colored it. I know the computer is a great tool and I know it takes time and patience to use but it takes a different kind of skill to be able to know what colors to use and how to layer them in-order to achieve light and shade on paper. Plus you've got to love the detail of the tooth flying out of the Hulk's mouth.

Patriot Awake's is by far the best. It's like a sculpture or something. The Hulk is truly menacing in the image, and I love the detail of Wolverine grabbing the Hulk by the hair.

Vassalo, Micah Brown, Erik Williams, Robert Cameron, Simon Gough, Aiiwolf, Matt Zolman, Erik Dobransky, Adam Munoa, SHAMAN, Kristine Kilayko and an honorable mention for Jenny Bornen; I think that picture is freakin' great.

Same as it was when I last posted it, not that I don't like any of the new ones, but I think I will still go with these as my tops, for sho!

There are a lot of great entries, but when it comes down to a winner, I've got to vote based on originality, artistic design, and talent.

#1 Tony Vassallo's entry

#2 Jin's entry

Tony is by far the most talented with Jin a close second. I would actually buy both these masterpieces!

sniktchick74 - 2/2/2009, 4:45 PM
I really like these 4:

Mike Hill: good proportioning and foreshortening;

Bashy: Good dynamics, beautiful coloring- it reminds me of Alex Ross' style

Will Palmer: good composition and dynamics. Style is reminiscent of Simone Bianchi's

Eric Williams: it's just freaking cool! I love Wolvie's pose
sniktchick74
sniktchick74 - 2/2/2009, 4:48 PM
Er, Jin's entry is a total rip-off from Wolverine #55, FYI.
NubaX
NubaX - 2/2/2009, 4:51 PM
I Loved all the artwork that I saw!

Too Bad that Everybody can't get a prize cuz I Loved all the work that I saw and could clearly see the Hard work put to each one.

Even the Funny Ones!

John Conley's is the best. its a totally orignal scene, with awesome hand colored detail, (wolverine' claw is going through hulks forearm)the characters are in a position thats physically perfect. and it has a true comic book feel.
adamant877
adamant877 - 2/2/2009, 4:56 PM
I'm a little torn between Bashy and Kristine Kilayko.
I agree with sniktchick74, Bashy's work is great, and reminiscent of an Alex Ross piece, while Kristine's is just as beautiful, but with a slightly more modernistic appeal to it...
I would have to say, overall... Kristine Kilayko.

(Erik Williams' piece is fabulous as well!) ;-)

PEOPLE! Jin is a FRAUD!!!!!
TheHammer
TheHammer - 2/2/2009, 4:58 PM
Just thought I'd add another. I also like Tony Vassallo's entry in a lot of ways. Very 3D, and the coloring is awesome too. And Jins entry may be a rip off, but it's still freakin' awesome. He may have used some art work as inspiration, but it still took some skill to draw it. And if the judges say it's a rip off, they will disqualify him. I'm just giving my opinion, as others are. Good luck to all!!!
adamant877
adamant877 - 2/2/2009, 4:59 PM
(It's hard to agree that Jin's piece is as good as the others as it is obviously a copy of two other artist's works entirely.)
cable82
cable82 - 2/2/2009, 5:02 PM
Kristine Kilayko, Matthew Hargues, and Tony Vassalo. The first two have the best figures, proportions and composition and Tony's is very unique that stands itself out. Jins entry is just a copy and paste of Mike Deodatos hulk and cover art to a published wolverine comic.

KentAllard - 2/2/2009, 5:05 PM
I really like Simon Gough's entry. It's not typical, but that's what's good about it!

I agree. Even "IF" Jin did the art, which is questionable cause you can alter a pics look with Photoshop-his peice was "UNORGINAL" thus should be disqualified! PLUS you can see the line seperation!

I like Damian Vargas' cause it has a dramatic look, cool colors and his Hulk is sick!

Good luck to all!

Hi

This is Xin. I think Kristine did a great job. I think she should get top honors.

I think that Tony Vassallo should win first place. His colors are good and the general layout is the best. Kristen's is also awesome, but I don't think it is as dynamic. So Kristen should get second place. I also liked Bashy and would give him third place. =)

And Jin does seem to have used copy/paste quite well...

#1 Tony Vassallo FTW! He took the characters and made them his own adding his own flavor.

In the interest of fairness I have to point out that Will Palmer's entry is almost completely swiped. Granted, it's a very good drawing, but not original. Wolverine, Thor, and Hulk were all copied from other pictures.

See for yourselves:

His entry: http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/HulkVs/galleries/?g=41&i=1813

Wolverine: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/spasmaticgonads/Wolverine_Fighting_Sabertooth.jpg

Thor: http://artesecuencial.blogspot.es/img/ultimate.thor.jpg

Hulk: http://cache.gawker.com/assets/video/stills/h/hulk519_kotaku.flv.jpg

And yeah, Jin is a hack and his "work" is completely copied and pasted. Simone Bianchi drew the Wolverine and Mike Deodato Jr. drew the Hulk; Jin took about 3 seconds to put them together.

tony vassalo's

it's the most dynamic and original one in the whole bunch!

vassallo's is great but it all it shows of hulk is his face...it doesn't even feel like he is fighting back but just standing there taking the punishment
TheHammer
TheHammer - 2/2/2009, 6:23 PM
Ok wow talk about a lynch mob against Jin. And ditto on Spasms comment. There are a lot of unoriginal drawings here. So get over it, and stop pouncing on people for giving their opinion as the editors asked. Let them judge if he " copied and pasted" his entry.
yatest
yatest - 2/2/2009, 6:27 PM
well, Jin's entry has the best art, but i highly doubt that Jin is in fact Simone Bianchi and Mike Deodato. And even if he was, thats two people so DQ!!! After that, i'd have to say

Grand Prize - Tony Vassallo

The figures are dynamic, the style is very original-no copycat art here-and the composition is pretty frickin cool. I feel like I'm standing right in the middle of the fray, watchin' Thor's back. Bravo Tony!

#1 Bashy
His retro art style is great. He would make Jack Kirby proud
#2 Will Palmer
Great values and dynamic poses.
#3 David McMillin
Realistic shading on the Hulk's face.
SolidSnake910
SolidSnake910 - 2/2/2009, 6:38 PM
if u guys read the rules CAREFULLY they say to create an ORIGINAL artwork depicting a BATTLE SCENE of hulk vs wolverine and/or thor. so with the rules in mind here are the top 7:
Kristine Kilayko
Tony Vassallo
Gabriel Chacon
John Conley
Erik Dobransky
Erik Williams
John Belloti, Jr.

I believe Tony Vassallo should win first place.
There are quite a few nice pictures in there, but they lack that power and tension between the characters and It is after all, Hulk, Wolverine, and Thor, how could you NOT make it dynamic?!
Some of the pictures are of only Hulk and either Wolverine or Thor, there was even some with just Hulk. I understood this as a Hulk vs., so why not throw in all three there? :)
Also, What I like about Vassallo's Piece is that it's not a direct battle between the three characters, but clearly shows that their in conflict.
So good luck to Tony! And good luck to all the other contestants :D
