Saturday: Round of 8

The winner of the COTW vote for June 24-30 was Josiah B!

Full Results

That gives Josiah 3 of the last 4 COTW wins! Incredible run by Josiah. That also puts three of his concepts into the monthly vote which has started now.

------------------------------------------------------------

 

The COTW-June vote has begun. Josiah owned the month of June, with the exception of one week, where Taylor got a win. As such the June vote has three Josiah concepts against once exceptional concept from Taylor. The voting is in the red poll on the side of the page. You can see the concepts by going to the COTY 2016 tab or by clicking the link in the poll. You will need to be signed into a Google account for the poll to appear. Voting ends Friday at noon Eastern time.

 

The COTW vote for July 1-7 is now live. The nominees are in the black poll on the side of the page and you can see the concepts by clicking the link in that poll. There's also the option of going to the CONCEPT OF THE WEEK tab to see the concepts. If you're signed into your Google account the poll will appear and you will be able to vote until Friday at noon Eastern.

The HJC Open is now into the Quarter Finals, which features 8 of the top concept artists that contribute to HJC. I am not a part of those 8 artists, but Austin E. is. He defeated me in the Quarter Semis in a close vote. As has become customary around here, anyone that defeats me is issued a lifetime ban from HJC. And Austin, you will be no different.

Just kidding, but did you really have to beat me? You ruined everything!!!!!

Alright I've calmed down now.

In case you missed it here are the final scores from the Quarter Semi-Finals votes.

 

For the 8 of you that are left in the tournament, it gets even tougher now. If you submit anything less than a great concept you're going to get crushed in the vote. Good luck to all. Also note the new time that entries have to be submitted. Noon Eastern on Tuesday, not 5pm as it had been in the two rounds previous.

------------------------------------------------------------

With 8 artists in the HJC Open that leaves a lot of us on the outside. I'm not going to start another competition until the tournament is over, but I am going to issue a challenge. We rarely get sent KHL concepts and so, I challenge you all to come up with a great KHL concept. Try to keep in mind the styles that are prominent in that league. Or maybe you can blow us all away with a new trend in Russian jerseys?
