The Rules

  • Submit your entry as a comment to this thread.

    You can post as many as you want.

  • To vote for an entry, just upvote the users comment.

    You can vote for as many different entries as you want, but please do not downvote. Downvotes will not be counted when deciding winners.

  • Every entrant gets a contributor flair.

    These will be handed out by a bot, but due to our comment hiding system, sometimes it misses people. If you entered but didn't get one, just send the mods a message, and we'll fix you up.

  • Winners can enter Weeklies for which they have submitted the stock image, but they will not be eligible to win.

  • Please be sure to tag NSFW entries appropriately.

    If you see anything inappropriate that's not tagged, either report the comment or send a message to the moderators.

 

The Schedule

  • All entries will be hidden for the first 48 hours.

  • Voting will open on Tuesday, after which all entries will be visible.

    Contest mode will be enabled for another 24 hours. This will sort comments randomly, obscure vote counts, and automatically minimize child comments.

  • Contest mode will be disabled on Wednesday.

    From there on out, each comment's vote total will be visible, and entries can be sorted by karma (just like any other Reddit thread).

  • The Battle will end on Saturday, March 27th.

    Next week's battle will be posted early Sunday morning.

 

Best of luck, everyone, and have fun!!

Glad you like it, I wanted to do something unique so I'm glad no one else did something similar.

Nicely done! I was reminded of Daft Punk too but couldn't come up with a good way to use it.

Thanks man. I had trouble deciding whether to make one of the mics gold or not, but then decided not to once I thought to change the glove colours to match the accent on the mic.

Fly Want My MTV

More "realistic" size

I wasn't really sure how this will turn out. The microphones reminded me of fly eyes, so I decided to make a box shaped fly and use the mics as eyes. Turns out my skills are just slightly above MS Paint level, so it ended up looking like the "Money for Nothing" video by Dire Straits (which was only semi-intentional).

Here is the process
