Good evening, combatants! It’s time for Trial by Comics . This week’s theme was “Star Trek”. You may all be wondering, “…where’s the Star Wars theme to celebrate ‘The Last Jedi’ release?”. Probably isn’t going to happen, lol. Maybe after the holidays […unpopular opinion, I’m not a Star Wars fan. Sorry. It’s just space muppets!]. Let’s take a look at the entries for this week!
First place this week goes to a newcomer, @artistchristian, with this amazing entry of Jaylah from “Star Trek: Beyond”. This one immediately caught my attention when I saw it in my feed. It’s simple, powerful and conveys an emotion. It reminds me of what could have been a very effective theatrical poster for the “Beyond” movie. Well done, @artistchristian! 25.000 SBD to you, currently valued at $320 USD.
Second place this week goes to another rendition of the “Beyond” character, Jaylah, this time by our regular “Trial by Comics” participant, @yanes94. Great line work in this, and muted colors. I love the simple, cascading elements between Jaylah and the star ship. Very effective composition. Great job @yanes94! 10.000 SBD to you with almost $130 USD, currently.
Third place goes to, you guessed it, @justmousepixels! Also from “Star Trek: Beyond”, check out this incredible digital portrait of “Kalara”. I love having your art in Trial by Comics , man. As I inch closer and closer to my own digital painting, character design ambitions, I study these extensively. Awesome, as usual. 5.000 SBD to you. Don’t spend it all in one place.
There were a lot of entries that I had to shift around to narrow my choices to three winners. My mom always had a crush of William Shatner. During the 90’s, I’d come home from school and we’d watch TNG together. My Star Trek roots run deep, so seeing so much great Trekkie art was unbelievably gratifying. I couldn’t share all the entries or this page would be 250MB’s of load burden on the Steemit site. Here are a few merit entries that I had to include in this week’s Trial by Comics ! Everyone here has received at least one 100% upvote. Thank you all for entering and keeping this contest alive.
Trial by Comics is on Holiday Break
We’re going to take a couple weeks off and reconvene after the New Year. I know things are going to get crazy for me and I don’t want to set myself up for failure in finishing new art and making a post before […or even closer to] a deadline I’m unable to reach. I have some travel coming up the end of this month. I’ll be back in Minnesota the first week of January, and then I’ll announce a new theme […okay, maybe begrudgingly, we’ll do Star Wars].
In the meantime, enjoy this terrifying drawing of Krampus I did, just for the children of Steemit. Also, remember to join the Trial by Comics Discord Channel. 50 Steemians strong posting great art, thoughts on the contest, occasional lifestreams of drawings and digital paints by phenomenal artists such as @beekart. C’mon. It’ll be fun! One of us. Gooble gobble, one of us!
