DiabloFans

Playing off of the recent "Female Monk Art Challenge", users over at the Battle-Net forums were asked to nominate their favorite of the bunch. Now, several days later, Bashiok has posted up the 5 top nominees.


Fantastic work by all the artists, it really shows the wide range of styles that are out there. The second on the list, for example, clearly shows that the individual would be skilled at concept art due to the large amount of notes on the page. While pictures such as the third and last nominations show an affinity for digital art.

Now, this is all fine and dandy, but since we don't all have Battle-Net accounts, we thought we'd run our own poll here at Diablofans. We will be using the above 5 pieces of artwork, and will leave it up to you to choose your favorite. The poll will run for 7 days, so make sure to get your vote in quick!

*nods*, 2 was pretty good, one of the better in my opinion.

I like the sketching style of it, but I guess I'm more biased towards that style of art since I'm first and foremost a pencil/graphite artist.

edit: DERP, thought you were referring to the second choice on the list. Oh, it's been a long day...

My 2 fav ones from the full list made into the finals YAY \\o//

#6 and #11 are great ! But i'll vote on the #11 because it have a very original style. I would love to play in a monk dressed like that !

I really liked these 4

They didn't make it.

Don't know which one to choose among those already chosen... :\

#38! You artists may appreciate style or whatever, but me, I'm just a simple Diablo player. I want my art colored and complete. And #11 sure as hell doesn't compare.

I picked 38 in the past thread with these too, so 38 cuz it looks the most diablo-ish

I liked 38 as well, though 2 was very close behind.

24's fingers look gnarled and her feet look bloated - lol

I picked 11. #38 was a close second.

38 looks like a rogue

I voted for 24 on concept, not artistic ability. She looks most like a practitioner of Martial Arts to me. 38 is too similar to the male Monk. I thought it didn't have much imagination behind it.

#38!! The most complete and time consuming of the bunch. Someone actually put some real effort into that one. Also, IMO, 38 is the closest in design to what Blizzard came up with. Sure are a lot of similarities.

#2. Feels like a Bruce Lee's little sister.

#38, by far the best

I think it is painfully obvious that #38 is probably the best.

Definitely #2

I'v never seen a girl monk, and I don't like bald ladies. Pixie hair is nice.

For what reason would male monks need to shave their heads that wouldn't apply to females?

In the real world?
There is no female monk.

In the world of Diablo?
We have an answer already.

If the world was real in Diablo?
There would'nt be any female monks and Diablo would be some dictator.

Pixie for the win.

Number 2 is perfect, #38 is completely disproportionate and odd looking. Forget color, there is time for that later. Number 2 matches what I was hoping for after I saw the monk trailer. Number 38 is so creepy looking.
