Man, usually I know right away who to pick, but I have to think about this one.

Boehmke was (my) obvious first choice but Heathers use of shading with a pencil won me over. I like Matts map drawing composited over a wood table and R of G's image looks straight out of my favorite medium, comics! Great job all!
"As for gunslingers, Roland," Cuthbert says, "I am here. And we are the last."
When two fit, it makes you think
I got the cute one, my woman
She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
When two fit it makes you think
See us both in the black
She lays on me so relaxed.

I really had to think about this one as well.
These contest are wonderful!
I am Daenerys Stormborn and I will take what is mine. With fire and blood.
I had to go with Heather's. Something about the tail slithering off into the canyon...it has that psychological freak-out quality.
All the entries are awesome, IMHO.
ETA: I think R_of_G has captured what it must be like to be in a thinny, though. If you stare at it long enough you get lost.

They are all great, much better than I could do, but Matt's got my vote, because it resembles a map that I would think Roland would have been carrying at the time.
i voted for boehmke, though deciding between that and heather's was a VERY difficult decision. like i said earlier i also really like matt's because it's honest and like storyslinger pointed out, it does look like a map roland or someone from his world would have
*SQUEE*
Can't believe I'm getting a vote with that thing. Its so cool that you guys can see what I was trying my best to achieve.
I'm not sure Dora will be voting for it though.

there's a lot to be said for simple honesty in art matt, i really do like yours
Matt
"The Constitution shall never be construed....to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms" (Samuel Adams, Debates and Proceedings in the Convention of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 86-87)
Heather, love the creepy quality of it.
"It's his eyes, Roland thought. They were wide and terrible, the eyes of a dragon in human form" - Roland seeing the Crimson King for the first time.
"When the King comes and the Tower falls, sai, all such pretty things as yours will be broken. Then there will be darkness and nothing but the howl of Discordia and the cries of the can toi" - From Song of Susannah
uhhh... uhh man this one is really hard... pencil shading? map? detailed? or awesome?.... ahh!!! its not fair!!
"Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem." -PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN, 1985-"We have two companies of MARINES running all over this island and thousands of ARMY troops doing nothing!" -GEN. JOHN VESSEY, CHAIRMAN OF JOINT CHIEFS
They were all very good and well done. I voted for matts because of Roland mayhap carried one just like it.
You guys are all way too kind.

How long do we have to vote? There are some excellent interpretations here. I need to ponder further.
It'll take a lot more than words and guns,
A whole lot more than riches and muscle.
The hands of the many must join as one.
And together we'll cross the river.

The poll will close itself on 2-28 at 8:07 pm.

HOW THE HELL DID YOU DECIDE UPON A TIME LIKE 8:07?Originally Posted by Daghain

It's 7 days from when I set the poll. So I must have set the poll at 8:07.

Congratulations!
It was an amazing piece of work. Well done.
Roland would have understood.
Way to go boehmke!!! Yours was really quite good!
Congrats, broham! It is a sick ass illustation (as always).
The contests are hard to vote on. And there's something so creepy about Heather's version. that little thinny arm peeking around the corner. awesome.
Congrats boehmke.
Thank you to all the other talented individuals for submitions.
Congratulations Boehmke. It definately was a great piece.
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
