I thought the two were pretty evenly matched.  John\'s pages weren\'t very detailed but were consistant and the opposite was true for Solly.  That tied their quality.  Creativity wise, I felt they were tied as well, though had we seen a bit of the Whys behind these fights that might have pushed it over for that person.  It was on entertainment that John slipped into the lead, only because I enjoyed his battle more.  Alot of it had to do with being able to \"stay in the story\" and because the action was very well drawn; very fluid.  Good battle on both sides.

Yeah the orginial script hand two more pages of battle which beserker and the excorist showing up, but I had to drop them since they weren\'t completed by the deadline. I was also working on three pages explaining why Khimaira was in the battle at all... but I also ended up dropping them cause they were not complete. I will more then likely try to finish the whole entry and just posted on the forms later on just to get some comments on it.

Interesting Johnparks...you tried to fit every summon in the battle. The whole thing looked like a gladiator battle, with the colosseum like setting.

I tried to do something new this time, since my Skye battles barely had any action. Unfortunately round 1 started 4 days before one of my final exams plus I seemed to have gotten carpel tunnel syndrome after drawing the first two panels...and finished the last 3 pages 12 hours after the deadline.

In any case it was a good match.

I loved the archaic mural feel of Parks\'. And it was all done with a stylus? Damn, boy!

I wish Solly\'s would have been completed. I liked where it was going.

john really brought something new to the table. great idea, but i think the execution could have been better. a little more BG would have spiced things up
solly did a good job too. i would like to see a little bit more depth in the story. something to catch the readers interest other than nice art.
great fight guys

ah, i hope it\'s not like this for all the matches, i keep having trouble deciding which fight to give me votes too  XB  coz they\'re both awesome in different ways.
in the end i gave more to solly, i really loved that idea. and the pages that were coloured looked really nice.
i dunno what it was really, but i really liked john\'s too. i think the character is awesome, and i love how you draw the movements

I think this is gonna be another close one. Solly, your color work is amazing-I just wish you had finished. Consistancy is a big thing for me so that brought down a little what would have been very high maks in quality. Also I was a little dissapointed that you only used one of your four familiar forms-thats one of the coolest features of your fighter. Good fight though, and awesome color work.

John-you already now my crits- I love the consistancy and stye of the art-Its still a little rushed in spots but we both know thats because you did this entire battle with a stylus!! I give you slightly higher marks because you finished consistantly and I like the comic strip format you choose. G luck.

NO defaults here... at least not on my part. Although I did have to edit my script down quite a bit to get it in on time. But that\'s what beyond battles are for...

\"Summoning a servant in physical embodiment depletes her energy\"... I assuming from this that when she summons a spirit she\'s giving them a physical body of their own to inhabit? Or do they take over her body?
