Contest: VOTE October Art Challenge – “Pre-warp History”

[Michael]

Welcome to the voting thread for the October Fan Art Forum Challenge. This time posters were tasked with showing us a glimpse of the Pre-warp History of one of Trek's various alien societies.

I'm delighted to present you three fine submissions. Please vote for your favorite of these three! (Please make sure to click on the thumbnails to view the pieces in their intended size!)

By the way, you've still got a couple of days to vote on the theme for November here.

@Cyfa illustrates an old Betazed fashion trend; the equivalent of a late-18th century be-wigged French aristocrat …


@MisterD explores the depths beneath the Andorian Ice Shelf in this fantastic piece …


@Starscape brings us a somewhat less honorable entry from ancient Klingon history in this brilliantly funny entry …

 

[Michael]

Bumping this up … Another day to vote, guys! Right now we're at a tie.

 

[Michael]

Wow, this was a tight race right up till the end! But we have a winner: Congratulations, @MisterD on a well deserved win!

I will page @EricF about awarding you the snazzy new winner's badge …

In the meantime, can you start the thread for this month's contest?

EDIT: Aaaaaand it's done. Thanks to @EricF's lightning fast support @MisterD now sports the new badge until we have the next winner. Please do parade it around the board with pride.

Woohooo thank you and thanks to everybody who voted and participated.


Sooo if I don't set up the next contest, I will keep it forever? In case the answer is "no" I will set everything up tomorrow if thats ok. Its pretty late here already.

Like 200 of the views this thread got over the last days probably come from me constantly checking in. Guess I kinda wanted this badge more then I first thought. Now the even bigger challenge begins....to resist the temptation to comment on every single thread in the forum so everybody can see what I got.

That's how democracy dies.

Thanks for setting up the new one for us. Tomorrow is more than fine. Thankfully we already know what the new theme is, so at this point the new thread is barely more than a formality and to have a place for people to most their entries.

Well, that's what I would do as well probably …

Congrats @MisterD, a well deserved win. Looking great in that banner, too.

Thanks. I love how the banner and my profile pic harmonize with each other. Seriously thinking about temporarily changing my user name to "number one".....but I dont want to risk a rift in the space time continuum.

Congrats. All the entries were well done this time around.
