Make A Work Of Art Contest!

Time to get ARtsY-FaRtSy!

The contest - Make a work of art of a coin, bank note, medal or token that you own using your camera, web cam or scanner and whatever software you normally use.

Just post a pic of the original source (coin or whatever) and then a pic of your final artwork. (One submission per person).

On August 28th 2010 at 6 pm (CDT) the call for submissions will close. Then the members will vote for the Best Of Show winner. Voting will last for one week and will close on September 4th, 2010 at 6 pm (CDT).

The person with the most votes wins!

(Unfortunately, only open to North American members due to previous shipping problems, sorry)

The prize package consists of a PCGS slabbed note autographed by John Markis (Trusted Traditions.com); a 1939 Canada Silver Dollar (worn but still pretty cool) and 1/2 pound of mixed foreign coins.

Have fun and good luck!

Art

So we don't really have to DO it?

Just provide an image that LOOKS like it was done?

 

Ummmm.... Well.....If you mean like photo shopping a coin on the Eiffel tower, sure.... I just want to see some really creative pics but use a coin/token/medal/banknote you actually have in your possession not one pulled off the net.

You don't have to damage a coin, just manipulate it in the software or take a neat pic of it.

 

I feel better already about this project, then.

 

Ta-Da! lol did this a little while ago

 

can you use multiple coins of the same type?

 

Sure!

 

Here's an example:

and from the top... Peace!

Pretty cool!:thumb:

 

Very nice indeed. Well done Jon4485

 

Very cool Jon4485, doubtful I could top that.

 

haha too bad i didn't make it out of peace dollars now that would've been ironic

 

that would be perfect desktop background material! i really like it with the jfk's though..

 

I hope people are working on their entries.

 

How about a TARP bill?
