FLD's Graphics GP Round One will be Plazzman vs. Pearce

They will be the only ones facing off this round due to how the bracket worked out.

Which can be found here.

Next round will consist of all players and will be the ToeZup banner, except whoever loses between Plazzman and Pearce, so no worries if you already made a banner because it will still be the theme for round two.


Plazzman and Pearce topic is free form. They must turn in their work by Monday at 11:59 PM CT. Voting will be for 3 days after entries are in.

Free Form haha i love Pearce's stuff but Giving Plazz Free Form is just nuts haha

[steph05050]

well i agreed to free form because its just two people...i figured it would be easiest...but we will see....pearce has been killing in the SOTW so it should be interesting

[MJB23]

good luck guys I was lookin forward to the first round matchups but that's how the bracket worked out

[bleSs]

Oh i knwo Steph Pearce has been doing amazing .. Its going to be awesome to see what they come up with.. Good luck guys.

[plazzman]

Shit, I'm up against Pearce? Right now that's unfair, I'm freakin drained :(. But I shall come up with somethin by monday.

[Brad.Taschuk]

I can only imagine what's happening to the plazzvan to try to help plazz come up with some ideas right now.

None of it can be good.

This is an awesome match-up though, both talented guys. Pearce has really come into his own, and plazz always brings something.

[steph05050]

well im currently cutting out some awesome pics to put in the cutouts sections...maybe one of them will inspire u lol....

[vikingpride]

Man i'm expecting some great work to come from this epic match-up (In the first round none the less).

The rising blue chip prospect who's been on a meteoric rise vs the savy legend with the infamous van.

I'm just worried about the possibility of the Contest blowing it's proverbial load on this great match-up.

[Pearce]

Haha i've been super quiet on the boards lately due to revision, sorry guys.

That being said, i've also been working like a man possessed with Photoshop. Plazz, as much as you're my hero and I have lots of manlove for you... you're going down boy.

[FunkYou]

This reeks of DREAM style GP matchmaking. Two of the favourites meeting up in the first round!

[plazzman]

Any chance we can get bigger size limits, these small sizes are killin me.

[steph05050]

450 X 250 too small? what are you wanting

I had to try to get rid of my only competition early lol jk

[JT42]

Wow, I smell Yakuza interference with these two meeting up in the first round!! This should be a Final Four matchup at the very least

[Tripod]

Yep, this is like JZ vs Aoki in the first round. Crazzzzzziness!

Do it for all of us who were locked in that god forsaken van.

[JT42]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, you mean you didnt ENJOY your turn in the van? I know I did :D

[MJB23]

Remember your work is due by midnight tonight.

[steph05050]

The toezup banner is a hard theme lol. I'm drawing blanks trying to figure something out.

[Pearce]

Hey guys, just wanted to put my work up for this highly anticipated match-up. I know we were given free-topic but I couldn't help but show some love to this man.

I'm crapping myself at the thought of whatever Plazz is coming up with but hes an artist I really would be honored to lose to ;).

[MJB23]

That looks really good.

I'm interested in what Plazz is making.

[steph05050]

great work...this should be interesting

[Lotus]

pearce wins unless plazzy can make something more nut busting than a saku/pride sig.

[ToeZup]

Good work Pearce, this is going to be a great GP.

[JT42]

Great idea Pearce! Pulling at our heart strings by making not only a Pride banner but also a Saku banner! Plazz better have some crazy stuff cooked up

[bleSs]

Thats a very nice sig pearce.. That could be the one that puts plazz into Retirement (Good i wont be alone anymore haa)

I don't think you'll be lonely for much longer. Depending on how this GP goes I might be joining you in the retirement home.

Haha its nice a cozy now they just got us a B/W tv so we can WATCH OUR SHOWS..

[MJB23]

A black and white TV and they'll let me watch my shows you say?

That's gonna make my decision a little easier.

[plazzman]

Word, I was gonna say, win or lose in this GP, I'm gonna retire. I just don't have it anymore and need a freakin break to focus on other GFX work.

[bleSs]

This could be us MJB.. Playing WII

[MJB23]

Haha that's definitely gonna be us but I don't know if this old body can handle the Wii. I might have to leave that to the young whippersnappers lol.

[Lotus]

lmao that pose is hilarious

[plazzman]

Alright, I know I'm 20 minutes late, and I know I've lost this, so I'm gonna throw in a 10k penalty.


Great stuff Pearce, you stumped me

[MJB23]

That's a lot different sig then I can ever remember seeing from you.

I'm not so sure about the red splatter stuff in the BG but besides that I like it.

[steph05050]

its only 11:25 CT deadline is 11:59 CT lol ur not late

[plazzman]

Oh shit, it was CT? Alright then my bad :D

[steph05050]

lol no prob

[vikingpride]

Wow very good stuff from both guys. (knew i wouldn't be disappointed.)

Also i love the old guys in O's gear playing the Wii. They are going hard. It even looks like they are using a lCD Projector. That's deff me in like 50 years.

[Pearce]

Fantastic work Plazz, knew you wouldn't bring any less!
