You know,after looking at Hawk's Birthday present, I came up with an idea for this month's challenge. I want to see a Period Piece of work using Super Heroes. What do I mean? For example Recreate Whistler's Mother using Black Canary, or Little Boy Blue using Night Crawler. Heck even Sceam using Vertigo. You get the idea. You have until the End of the day of September 5th. Entries will be posted and voting will start the day after Labor day, as I will be out of town. BONUS POINTS IF YOU RECREATE IT IN THE SAME STYLE AS THE ORIGINAL PAINTING! Have Fun!

Been working on mine. The hardest part is trying to match the brush strokes.

Ditto Darque...
I've tried with the "oil paint" filter, several others, too. Smudge brushes, layer styles and all...But getting the style down right is tough.
Still workin' on it though...so I'll have something by the end of the month!
Hopefully we'll see several...this is yet another really cool idea from the boss lady!

Er... The opening post says "You have until the End of the day of September 5th". Surely that gives me just over a week? Unless time itself has warped without me noticing, anyway.

Nearly done. Maybe. Unless I'm lying.
[Sees drunkendragon's entry.]
... oh, are we supposed to copy the original paintings' cracks/specks/etc too? I hadn't thought of that, but the idea amuses me.
(Unless I'm lying again...)

Well this was just a disappointment. This challenge had potential and what did we get? Three entries. THREE. THREE!!
Now that's just a damned shame. All these members... and its the same three that are constantly participating. This is what I was talking about with the decline in activity. Seems like nobody wants to do things any more.
damned shame.... It's upsetting really. When the rest of us put forth the effort, we expect to see more... but we don't.

I definitely wanted to do a piece for this challenge. Unfortunately I was away for the month and there was no way I could put together what I wanted for this challenge on a laptop on the road during vacation. I really think this was an awesome idea for a challenge however, at least for me, taking on the classics would be a time consuming and daunting task. It would take me at least a month! Congrats to you, DI as well as B and DD on the terrific job you all did! I think you all did an outstanding job on this! Still, when I look at this field of participants, I see a high skill level among all. I don't think you should be so disappointed, DI. This challenge was particularly challenging and I think the commitment and skill required to meet that challenge is what narrowed the field so much. It was a good challenge with good entries though it is a shame there weren't more.
