Great job Pearce, the sig looks awesome, but I had to go with plazz. It's a style you don't see to often, and I've taken a liking to it. Great job to the both of you, the voting should be close.

Pearce did an amazing job but i had to pick Plazzy on this.. Thats just a unique style with the red blots and all..

Damn. This is why it was unfair to have these two in the first round.

Pearce, I love the sig (especially the Rising Sun behind Saku). Plus, blatantly repping PRIDE is always gonna get on my good side. That strip of brighter colour and the text just don't fit to me though.

plazz, that is just riduculous. The text in the background is awesome, the pic is awesome, the spray paint looks cool. Who else but Wandy could look so bad ass wearing what appears to be oven mitts?

Gotta go with plazzy. Sorry Pearce, you didn't deserve this fate.

I gotta give it up to Pearce, his piece was so damn good I almost gave up. Dudes got a bright future, and could pretty well take this.

If/when he does beat me, Pearce vs. Pliff is gonna be fireworks!

Pearce gets my vote but that is the best one I have seen Plazz do in a long time. His style is always unique.

Great work guys. Plazz's sig is so dramatic and Pearce's sig has killer artwork. What a tough one to call.

I have to go with Pearce but damn Plazz, you have to at least rock that sig around the forum so we can look at it all the time. :D

Wow it's tied 7-7.

I'm gonna need some time to think about this because both are so good.

Im honestly astonished that its even - thanks again guys for voting for my work.

I won't have a single ounce of regret if I go on to lose to Plazz now. Thanks guys :).

Being a straight up sig, Pearce wins it.

Being a cool shit that you can do, Plazz wins it.

So how the fuck do I vote?

Went with Pearce cause of the organization, great graphics display, and the overall look as a signature. Plazz, yours is awesome, but I feel like it's missing something. It might have been cool to very vaguely highlight a few of the background texts so that some of it would be more readable.

Good job both guys though.

Great work to both but I went with Pearce. I just love everything this guy puts together. I honestly dont think you have made a sig that I dont like.

IF Pearce wins (I say if since Plazz' sig is awesome as well) I would love to see a Pearce/Bless matchup since those two are my favorite artists

Ridiculously good work from both of you. Two of my favourite members and GFX artists and both really nice pieces.

Almost didn't vote it was that close in my mind but I went with plazz, barely, mainly just cos I couldn't stop staring at it.

Neither of you deserve to lose this one TBH.

Really big thanks to those who've voted and those with compliments also - some really kind words :).

God this is going to sound like one total cheeseball but i'm happy to lose now considering the comments from everyone.
Cheers guys.

Damn tough choice here.

When i'm almost ready to vote for one i take one last look at both and change my mind. I think what makes this really tough is they are quite diffrent so it's hard to compare the two.

(this might come down to the ever reliable coin toss for me).

Much. I like the new Pearce attitude.

Can I change my vote? I fear for my life and anus if I don't vote for Pearce.

Wow it's still all tied up. It might all come down to one vote.
Pliff
05-13-2009, 08:53 AM
After a few days of looking at them, I decided to go with Plazz. It was a tough choice, the sigs are both incredibly good. It was so hard comparing them because they arent the same style at all.

Both are top notch in their respective styles but the originality of the Wandy sig just tipped the scales for me.

Congratulations to both of you on amazing pieces.


Its going to be tough for me to even have a chance in the 2nd round against these 2 gfx beasts!

First Pearce - Plazz go head to head. Then the winner against Pliff. This is a horrible draw as favourites keep going aginst each other.

Both were very good sigs and there were a few things I didn't like in both.

In Pearce's the edges of the shoulder and the head are a little pixely and draw my attention away from the whole sig.

On Plazz's I didn't like the spray paint stuff in the BG.

After staring at them for like 5 minutes I had to go with Plazz. It's a different type of sig than what I can remember him making before and I like it alot.

Both were great though.

Just to be on the safe side you should probably avoid "grassy Knolls" as well (just to cover your bases).

Anyways after alot of thought i went with Plazz. Both Sigs were great, but Plazz went a little more unconventional which i kind of dug.

It's a really close comp right now. After i summited my vote plazz went up 12-10.

To be extra safe you better avoid even Parker Knoll sofa's. Vigilance is everything.

Extremely close match up guys...Plazzman takes the win and advances to the next round and Pearce, who was a favorite in the comp has been eliminated....sorry Pearce you got unlucky being matched against plazz in the first round

Congrats Plazz - well deserved man and there isn't anyone i'd rather lose to, to be honest.

Good luck in the rest of the GP mate - Pliff is going to give you a tough matchup!

Yayyy!

Fuckin RELIEVED that I somehow won, Pearce had me sweating HARD. Although, I'm gonna give a thumbs down to the match-making, Pearce definitely deserved to move on in this, dude's retardedly talented. Also, I gotta face Pliff next? This is nuts, I don't condone this.

But big big thanks to those who voted for me!
