As much as I like the Hungarian I had to vote for Embryodead's Pole. He has that regal look of arrogance in his pics. Something you would expect from royalty. :lol:

For me the beat up pic was the best, the look of utter despair and confusion at his defeat. :D

Hikaro, don't take this the wrong way, and I am sure the style fits final fantasy very well, but your LH has a plastic look to the skin which takes it down a few notches. :) Although I did like the background a lot.

Jorde, I would have voted for your Hungarian, but he lacked emotions in the pics. :) :)

Istvan Kiraly all the way... even though I love Jogaila as well. Sorry, ED...

Thor: :lol: Atsuhira is NOT Final Fantasy... He was a LH Ogedei the Mad requested of me for his Annals of the 7 Kingdom mods. He sent me a PM that contained very specific requirements (including that the particular Japanese temple which I have in the background be used), which, judging by his reaction, I successfully fufilled....

I didn't expect to get many votes for him, but I didn't want Jorde to just walk with the trophy (and I can still say that I finished 3rd :p ).

It looks like I've become sort of like those actors who are almost entirely associated with their primary works (I.e. Rowan Atkinson being forever associated with Mr. Bean). :lol:

Hikaro, I must apologize for my assumption. :blush: I had thought you were still working on your FF mod. My bad. :D

Comments about the looks still stand though. ;) :D

Sorry, jorde and Hikaro, but I had to go with embryodead on this one.

Hikaro: surely Rowan Atkinson is more associated with Blackadder than with Mr Bean! I hope so at any rate...

Mr. Atkinson QUIT doing Mr. Bean because people started calling him Mr. Bean even when he was not on the set :crazyeye:

...At least that's what I heard anyways.

Thor, I'm still working on the FF mod, and I will have a whole bunch of new LHs done after I come back from my (fairly) breif forray into Age of Empires III modding....

I agree with Plotinus on both counts: the vote for Jogaila and the association of Rowan Atkinson with Blackadder more than Mr Bean ;) .

Minor claim to fame: my godfather knew Rowan Atkinson well at university and advised him to try to make it as a comic actor rather than as an engineer. However, this gives me no insider knowledge into his reasons for quitting Mr Bean, much as I wish it did.

One vote for Jogalia. He kinda looks like Stephen III of Moldavia. :crazyeye:

I'll go with Hikaro for this month, because that guy reminds me of me.

Except with a sword, head more egg shaped, and blueish hair that sticks up instead of down. ;)

For me it's a toss up between Jorde's and ed's. Both are masterpieces. I think I'll vote Jorde, but I'll use embryodead's for my mod.

Nice Job all around.


OT: For me, I think Blackadder when I hear Rowan Atkinson, since Blackadder came first, and will always be superior to Bean.

Are we voting for Blackadder and Mr. Bean? I vote for Blackadder then. Its humor is very clever, in contrast to Mr. Bean.

For the second poll I'll support Embryodead. Not because Jogaila is much better than Stephen (I can't choose between them), but to award my favourite moder and leaderhead maker.

Congrats to Embryodead on his return to Civ III and his first competition win, and thanks to the 4 people who wasted their votes on my sorry LH, especially when you had two obviously superior choices to pick from, I'm truly flattered.

Jorde: You did a good job, and maybe you'll have better luck next time.

Definitely a worthy win. I hope we'll see lots more of these.

Congrats to ED for his great LH! A truly awe inspiring leaderhead!

Jorde: You did a good job, and maybe you'll have better luck next time.

As long as embryodead participates, I don't see myself winning anytime soon :p :D

Thanks guys :banana: and it's nice to be back :D Jogaila was 100% Lithuanian btw, he just married Jadwiga, the 12-year old queen of Poland :mischief:

Jadwiga, huh? Sounds like a Halrem girl, if you ask me.. :p

Or like a character from a Whopi Goldberg film. :D And no, she wasn't a harem girl there.
