<Post edited by chatGPZ on 25/10-2007 20:07>
yay, you gfx ppl can maybe help to identify more pictures:
(just copying what i already posted in the comment to that compo)
64er 6/93 has screenshots of the 10 preselected entries. (uploaded here: http://img514.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pixelprachtzr3.jpg)
64er 9/93 announces the results:
1. "Clown" - Boris Müller
2. "Silver and Stone" - Daniel Kottmair (== Steel and Atone, Deekay/Crest)
3. "Voodoo Queen" - Rudolf Rönsch
4. "Manowar" - Irfan Celik (== Triumpf of Steel, Ivan/Smash Designs)
5. "Fisch" - Karl 'Ogami' Shew (Ogami/Fairlight)
6. "Dragon Wars" - Roland Tögel (Crossbow/Crest)
7. "Dragon Wars" - Irfan Celik (Ivan/Smash Designs)
8. "Delaney's World" - Manuel Rieger
9. "Cyberpunk" - Karl 'Ogami' Shew (Ogami/Fairlight)
place 1-3 should be on the disk from 64er 9/93
other trivia: place 6 and 7 are copies of the same boris vallejo picture =) |

I recognise both the fish and the cyberpunk pic from Ogami, no doubt about that. Must have been featured in some graphics-collection or demo from FLT. The fish is one of his later works I think, I recall that he made a couple of asian-inspired pics along with that eagle.
"Silver and Stone" by Deekay was in the TP'93 compo. Atleast one of those Dragon Wars pic was featured in some scene compo somewhere. Can't tell when though? All in all quite nice pics though. Save for that clown, oh my god. |

hehe.... that said, i also added the results for 64'er Demo Competition 3/93 (WoC) ... and i am wondering if the demos associated with 64'er Demo Competition 7/89 werent actually released in the same compo (but didnt make it to top3) .... the latter would mean 3 crest demos in the same compo then =P |

Roland 'Dragon Wars' Tögel is ofcourse Crossbow, that Manual Riegel picture shouldnt be too difficult to isolate either, with such a big Crest logo in it.
And maybe Clown was done by the world famous clown Boris himself.
edit: oh, long live search: Chipsi is Boris Müller. |

mmh well, they share the same name...but neither "boris" nor "müller" is a seldom name ("müller" actually is one of the most wide spread ones) in germany, so that doesnt mean much :) |

thanks for the insight.. heres me thinking they were cool.
they are to a point, but after seeing that, less so as fair people... I don't see why they needed to do that, just makes themselves look silly.
It's quite a dirty tactic employed just to win some crappy prize, flood the comp with various demos etc. then the odds are greatly increased. It's probably against people who classed them as friends, which makes it more ironic.

Boris Müller the painter (?) of the clown is definately Chipsi, the picture was also in the intro of his game 12 O'Clock. It looks digitized to me and after-worked. |

I can safely say that the Delaney's World picture was drawn by Slice around 1991/1992.
He's from my hometown and was a very close friend back then. I remember i even had workstages of the pic on some disk.
After our 1990 demo Beauty Snooze he then later joined Crest and was involved in two Crest demos.
Seems that Crossbow just took some unused pics of Crest ex-members and entered the competition without giving credit to the original artists.
Guess he was keen on the prices. Pretty lame if you ask me. |

OK, sounds plausible enough - credit added, mystery solved.
No comment on whether that way of releasing was good style. ;) |
