Although I think your pic works better as a finished piece Juggs, it lacks the pure guts of the first piece. Quite a hard vote though.

That's an ambitious piece, Juggs. It works well enough, but I just don't feel like DD is lit with the rest of the scene - makes it look like he's just pasted on top. Trampis, cool composition and I love the dramatic lighting and the details on Frankenstein. Old school horror movie vibe achieved. Voting Trampis.
Great work both of you, I may be wrong to say this, but I don't see in this piece the Trampis defeated me one month ago!! Come on, your ink work is far much better!! Want to see those inks!!
I may be alone here, but this is a tough one for me!

It was a tough one. But in the end I didn't really understand what Daredevil is doing. Had to weigh that against some lighting inconsistency issues in Trampis' and in the end I had to go with the one that told a clearer story.

I liked both of these efforts, but they both had a couple of issues that made me stop to consider them more fully (I usually vote on a first pass, but had to come back for a second look here!). Trampis' Batman vs. Frankenstein is very cool and moody, but those areas where the pencils overlap in the shading was really distracting here, wish he had adjusted the gamma or something to make the pencils darker. Jugg's Daredevil and Zombies are colored great and have a cool style I'd like to see in more of his future work. But DD looks like he is lacking any forward momentum and at first glance I thought the Zombies were throwing him up in the air or he was body-surfing along the top of the Zombies. After my second look I went with Trampis' illustration, but it was a close call!

Gotta go with Juggs on this one. While Tramp has some impressive value rendering going on it's got some pretty major anatomy issues.
Voted Tramp.
Juggs feels like two different pics just slapped together. DD almost looks like he is being tossed in the air by the Zombies all hip-hip-horrayish.
This is a tough one, both have their issues but both are very interesting, I love the color contrast of Juggys. Love the rendering of trampis... going to think on this one.
