Axiom vs. deker in the battle of century (complete)

Rules: Photomanip. Native/3rd Party Filters. Import As many photos as you want. must use a color scheme chosen by the moderators.(mod's pick at least 2 colors please).

***last minute stipulation***

No pictures of deker. No Pictures from deker's site. No pictures related to deker. and no video game controllers.

Hey, come-on... that was a FUN challenge!

If I understand this correctly (and I'm sure I don't), all I have to do is pick two colors for a 'scheme', you guys will supply all the photos. If that's not correct, and you want me to provide the first photo (of a non-deker-type item), let me know.

1st color: RGB 108,117,95

2nd color: RGB 152,163,174

(at least I didn't pick pank orange and the forum background)

I must say, dan's colors threw both of us for a loop. Be assured, both colors were used in one way or the other. Deker's photo made it tough for me cause it was just begging to be grunged up.

We pretty much decided that this wasn't for a 'win', just to see what a 'freethinker's pixel war' would turn out like.

Was difficult on deker cause well, he isn't a photomanip guy plus he really has to have a topic. I'm guessing he will probably take me just because he has a great talent. Me, I just throw something together that makes me feel good.

Enjoy folks.

Here is mine.

I actually like the colors... And I decided it need to be grunged up a little. (if you call that grunge... I don't really...) it just went with the picture. Anyways...

Deker

coz the chick is more naturally sized... but it was a close run

deker

I'm just goin' for what seems to have thought of it a bit more, to show more of the color thems chosen...
if mirror reflection for axiom would have been of the colors chosen I'd voted for his image...

deker

Deker

Axiom


Both left me wanting a little more. My only suggestion for Ax would be I'd like to see the text be ON the mirror like it's what's really printed on it... Actually, with Dek's I wanted a little less--LESS GRUNGE! :D

I like the format for the challenge guys... GOOD IDEA! We should do this type of thing more. We just need a name for it.
