Here it is again Friday. Some say the best day of the week, because it is the last day of the work week. Others same it’s just another day because they work weekends. For me I say it is Friday Open Critique Day. Share with us projects you are working on and we will let you know what we think. By doing so, you agree to be open all comments. Please remember that the comments you make should be helpful, for we all have areas that we can improve on.

The Challenge is to color in the character, without changing the character other than adding color to it. You can add a background or other designs, but you can not take anything away from the Character. All you have to do is copy the text Taleen Darkhope-Dakar by Kaldath and import it into Hero Machine and the character is ready to color.
Challenges are just for the fun of it, no prizes are offered at this time.

This week I present for your viewing ,, umm pleasure horror this 1990's redesign of wonder woman.
Now I don't know about you folk but this outfit just doesn't say Amazon princess, nor does it give that American Patriot vibe of the classic Wonder Woman attire. No what I get from this is more along the lines of a visit to Sturgis North Dakota during bike week, or perhaps a visit to the local "Gentlemens" club. I know that Wonder Woman has a very shall we say checkered past, However this ensemble really pushes that boundary and shoves it in our collective faces. In the end all I can say is the Wonder Woman was just another victim of the 90's and its EXTREME outlook.

This Weeks Poll Pits Young Justice against The Young Avengers, specifically the following team members:
Young Justice: Robin, Superboy, Impulse, Wonder Girl, Arrowette, Secret, and Empress
VS
The Young Avengers: Iron Lad, Hulkling, Patriot, Wiccian, Stature, Hawkeye (Kate Bishop), and Speed
[polldaddy poll="6770132"]
Looking at this one on paper I am not sure who has the advantage in this one. At first blush I'd say the DC team has the bigger Guns with the likes of Superboy and Wondergirl on the team however Wiccian could be a big game changer in this one. In the end if I had to choose a winner I will have to give it to Young Justice.
That's my opinion on the matter, but I want to know what you think. Leave a comment below defending your choice in this poll!!

From Herr D
Let’s start off with Keric. Good depiction. Love the facial expression. Two things dragged you below the others–A literal interpretation of a song, even one as offbeat as one of the Rocky Horror songs, is less original than the other entries. The other? Just in general, pictorial representation of music is HARD.
Next, The Atomic Punk. Well done. Let this be a lesson to all those going into the ‘escort’ business. Look at the horrific clientele that poor young thing would get saddled with! I do have a question. What was that gray oval over the hooker‘s head?
Sorry for my absence earlier. This is a duplicate of what I will post to the blog.
Keith? You had THE most original idea in the contest. You did the undersea scene very well. It broke my heart to have you tie for second. Strategy dragged you down. Too many difficult things to build in one picture. It occurs to me that the whole picture from another angle would‘ve been a lot easier — that that would’ve won. Impressive use of items–clearly the skill is there.
Scatman, you tied for second. Without even a background. Partly because it was remarkably realistic, in situation, pose, placement, and facial expression. Partly because your depiction of a muscular female is the best I’ve seen yet. In short, your technique was a crack shot.
Oh, my. Skybandit. I don’t even find flatulence funny. But good grief. NO ONE HAS EVER COVERED THIS ANGLE BEFORE? And you blanketed it. Realistic facial expressions. Fairly good blush. You even had the cape pop out. –okay, that part was funny to me too. Original, funny, and a great depiction of dramatic irony! Skybandit wins.
P.S.
Our friend djudy will be taking a break from the Pop Quizzes. I will start posting them this weekend. I am setting up a thread in the forums if you would like to make any suggestion. Or you can e-mail me at; thehammerknight@yahoo.com . My wife and I have been having fun judging the other contest and challenges. At this point I have not made any plans for the Pop Quizzes that are set in stone. I hope to have everything worked out by Saturday.
Many Thanks,
Hammerknight
