Map Battle 27 - Vote & Final Images

[Jest@]

Well, here we are again! 12 lovely entries on the theme of Island. Most stay true to the regular notion of an island, although there are a few more inventive definitions As always, thanks to those who took part - it's sad that so many WIPS were left unfinished.
Entrants: Remember, always explicitly mark the post with your images in as Final (go back and edit if you need to), it makes things a lot faster.

Apologies for the late poll - was feeling a bit under the weather last night.

Plenty of new faces - Welcome! stick around, and we'll see you all for Map Battle 28 - beginning in a few days!

Take a look at the loverrrly images our entrants have come up with, and take your pick! If you rather, the images can, as always, be viewed at the Photobucket album (grid, plain, slideshow).

Remember, there's no specific criteria for voting - generally, it's done on overall aesthetic quality, but technical skill and imagination are always factors too, of course. Our entrants are (I'm assuming) more than willing to hear some feedback, so let us know your thoughts on who you vote for and why!

*** NEW FOR THIS VOTE ***

To tide us over till I get a better system set up, I've changed the voting rules a bit - this time, you can vote for 3 entrants. Pick your top three, and hopefully we'll get a nicer spread of votes.
Obviously this isn't as desireable as a ranked voting system, but it's better than just one, hopefully!

The Doctor

[joe_dirt976]

wish i would of finished mine up but life happens. Good work there, love the floating island concept

[stoopdapoop]

source-maps, master donut, and fritz for me.

[Jman]

Fritz gets my vote for being the only tf2 map and looking amazing.

[Zipfinator]

Source-Maps, The Doctor, and Fritz for me! Great entries fellas!

[ghost12332]

Source-Maps, Holy Socks, and Fritz for me.

1. Sourcemaps just looks plain sexy

2. Holy socks did the classic planet, which I <3

3. And I LOVED fritz's style. It was by far the most original and creative.

[Generalvivi]

Master Donut for me! and fritz and source maps!

edit! thankz zip-kun!

[Zipfinator]

Master Donut for me!

You gotta vote for 3 Vivi! It's new for this battle.

[Habboi]

Ah much better with the vote for 3 thingy.

The TF2 entry stands out to me. As does the planet and the floating island. So I voted for those 3.

To the others. Whle you did a nice job, they didn't catch my eye like the others. Remember to learn from it.

[Biological-Bum]

Voted Holy Socks, Master Donut, and Shady Nader for high marks in creativity. May the best man win

[Kremator]

MasterDonut, Fritz, and Holy Socks ftw.

[Holy Socks]

Thanks Ghost. It was a pretty hard choice, made easier by the new 3 votes thing; I went for Source maps, Donut and Fritz in the end though there were some really great other entries as well.

[stoopdapoop]

anyone else notice that the percentages don't add up to 100? I guess it might be because at this point if you have one vote you're alot closer to 2% than 1% but it rounds down.

In reality this is a shameless bump because somehow the less active thread is still on the "most recent posts" section on the front, while this one got bumped.

[k-dawg]

i voted for
phott
jenk.
and
holy socks.

(i felt they deserved some credit for being first entrants.)

[punky]

Voted for
1. Masterdonut
2. Fritz
3. Shadynader
Some really, really nice entries out there, this time from a lot of people that I haven't seen around on these forums a lot, so it's cool to see some new names with great entries!
In my opinion Shadynader had an original concept and he worked it out nicely, but the only thing that kind of ruined his entry was that the atmosphere was kind of boring...
Nice idea Masterdonut and the island looks sweet and Fritz; nice level of detail in your entry man!
