Stabby Trio - Banner A

Hah! It's rare that I do this, but I have finished two pieces in a little over a month! Actually, I was working on this piece since July and finished it in January, then the picture [link] was started in January and just finished here last week! I can't remember the last time I kicked out two pieces within a short time of each other like that!
I have recently become a big fan of Stjepan Sejic after seeing his amazing coloring skills put to work in Witchblade and other titles. I was lucky one day to find an issue of Advanced PhotoShop (#59) that had an interview with Stjepan Sejic. From that interview, I was able to figure out some of his painting techiques. Thank you, Stjepan Sejic, for inspiring me to do something different... to try something different with my art... and to mess around with the bloody brushes! I didn't do any of his embossing effects on this picture, but I definetly used them on the next one I completed.
Two of my favorite things about this picture is Stabby's red armor texture and Vallhalla's damaged shield with rust effects. I figured out the rust effects on my own by messing around with the "star" brush on Multiply.
Now here's where I need your help... I want to make another banner for this years cons (like the one I made last year: [link] ). I have two options that I would like to make into a banner and would appreciate your vote! This submission here will be "Banner A". Please vote for one in my upcoming journal!
