I'll let him know.

As far as the voting, I think this contest, at least since I've been on here, has the best turn out of quality entries yet. I tip my hat to you guys. Excellent, excellent stuff. I've learned quite a bit, and have been inspired from a bunch of stuff here, and there's no way I can decide on my pick today. I have to think long and hard.

wow this is hard, all great entries, was gonna go with amy as hers looks unreal, the only thing iom not sure about is the space underneath trails between the hands maybe could have been filled with a couple of old school roses or the hands brought in a bit.

And then moon goes and submits a piece that would again be eye catching as a book cover so im gonna have to think a bit on this one (or flip a coin biggrin.gif )

well done everyone.

smile.gif Really amazed to even be seriously considered...thought I might just get laughed out of this as I'm such a n00b.
(btw the gap you mentioned is to allow for any text The Nerd may decide to print on the front e.g. "Art of Ink-Trails" or whatever, after discussions)

thanks man!

I really like barnstormer's. looks very vintage and unique. a nice worn out texture overlaid on it would look killer on it. like an old 1800's book!
I respect the handmade aspects of the contests, but I think maybe (im talking about my own design) could use some digital help.

I'd like to offer myself for any digital reworking ( layouts, color adjustments, ect.) if needed in the book smile.gif (p.s. i do some freelance graphic design on the side of tattooing)

its really hard because thier are aspects to each of them that are real;ly amazing. if we could pick three and combine them would be ideal for me. i have to say i love moons over all and barns trad euro look and i think gomegaxs art is on point, so for me ive narrowed it down to those three. i cant vote at this point though give me a day or two.

thanks for the kind words.

I knew after I had finished it that it was a solid piece, just wasn't very cover-esque

good work to all, and congrats joe!

Thanks for the vote of confidence guys...
Unaccustomed as I am to public speaking..blah..blah..blah..
I used to enter the weekly flash comps, back in the day, but
they unraveled when Ferret stopped running them. I saw this
& thought long & hard about it & I'm glad I entered. Not just
because I won, because it has been one of the best run comps
on the Trails & the standard of work entered has been fantastic.
Thanks to The Nerd & "The Mystery Builder" & thanks to all of
the artists who entered. It's a shame that we don't get more
entries but I'm sure that ,if the quality of the competitions
matches this one, we soon will.

Cheers,
Joe...
