MA - I'm gonna go with monja and AA simply for the reason that of the 4 the only one I feel has a good resemblance is CM Punk, I hate the stance on big show as you can't have a pose like that without tilting the body as the left leg would clearly be long if both were straight, TXF is good but it's just good, the face is slightly generic and, seeing as it's only good not great it doesn't make up for the big show.
M3G - M3G simply because it is the cleanest and that head is insane. I like squig's too but it lacks chin and looks a bit stretched.
CMC - Jx's is overdone and emassons is underdone, CMC's is just right but the resemblance is meh.

World title match:Hurricane: This is a great micro. Cena can be hard to get the resemblance right, which I have seen through no one actually being able to make him look like cena, lol. Resemblance in this is good. Love the details and shading in the jeans. Bad points owould be the shape of the hand, doesn't seem right, and the logo on the trousers isn't wrapped with the jeans, making it look odd. MJH: I like the unique style behind your micros. Not liking the face on this one though. The Cheeks are too defined. The proportions of the legs look off to me, way too thick IMO. Vote: CaneTag team championship matchXxXxX: Show looks great. Details on the attire is great, and everything blends so well. Very nice, smooth micro. Not seeing show at all in the face. Taker. Great Micro. Shading on the torso looks kinda odd, but only a bit. Face looks great, imo. Monjatude Adjusted. (lol at the name): Punk is flipping awesome. Only thing that looks a bit off is the stomach area looks a little too thin. The Kofi isn't so great. Not seeing him at all in the face, and the hair looks odd, how it hangs in a strange way. looks like some AA could be used in the attire. Vote: XxXxX. But only just. Non Wrestling ChampionshipAlex: Flawless Micro. Absoultely Fecking Awesome. MJH: Exact same response. Two Fantastic Micros here. Vote: Incredibly hard choice. Going with Alex, but VERY close. NW Number 1 contendersSquig: Don't know who it is, so I can't comment on the Resemblance. The attire seems to have a lack of shading, which is making it look flat. Although, I cant really comment on that, considering how most of mine are called flat M3G: Wow. Great micro. Fantastic resemblance, great detail and funny as hell, too. Ominis: Not a bad micro at all. Solid shading, and very remenisent of the original mirco base, which is a good thing. It's the most micro-looking thing in the competition. Adam Marvel: For a name like that, I was expecting a Marvel Micro, but anyway... It's an ok micro. Kinda pillow shaded, and very many straight lines which looks odd. Lack of black outline, too. Vote: M3G

Isn't it the rules that if you vote on 1 you have to vote on all? Not really. I'd prefer people vote on them all, but some is better than none, right? I definately think it should be a rule, it doesnt take that much effort to pick your favourite and give a brief response why, and its not very fair to people in that match to be left out of the voting process. MS World Championship - The RematchHurricane (c) vs. MJH Hurricane- Looks amazing, the face has pretty good resemblance, the hair has a lot of great subtle detail, and the post is brilliant. You managed to pull off the hands really well and the belt is a really nice addition, I do think maybe the shoulders should be more visible and broad, he’s got a pretty massive upper body, but its not a huge deal. Shorts look awesome, every crease looks like its been coordinated with the next, great job MJH: Im not crazy about the style, I used it long enough to grow tired of it, and its easy to go over the top with it, which is what brings the micro down imo. Some of the shaping is odd like the boots, they look massive, and the big hands and forearms. The eyes are pretty close together and it hurts the resemblance, I get what you were going with in the mouth area, so I do see some resemblance there. Everything else though looks very good, the shading, tattoos, designs are all well done Vote: Hurricane MS Tag Team ChampionshipsXxXxX (c) vs. Monjatude Adjusted XxXx: Cane, glad you finished the Big Show, it turned out great, im glad you went with this custom pose rather than modding a temp, it really gives you a better idea of his size this way. The resemblance in the face is decentgood but it sort of reminds me of Austin or Goldberg. I guess all baldies look the same to me . TXF, the resemblance is awesome, the shading on the skin is very realistic. My only nitpick is the lower part of the hair, just kinda looks like black squiggles in it to me, but its not that noticeable. The tattoos look great and the attire is good MA: Monja, resemblance is good, and overall its very well shaded. Its been a long time since watching WWE but I don’t remember Punk having a hairy chest (edit: nvm, guess he stopped shaving it lol). Attire is overall very good, my only complaints on this micro is the skinny waist, and the wrist tape is just a bit too gray. AA, some of the shading in the attire doesn’t stand out very much, Im not too familiar with this guy but the face looks kinda generic and the shaping makes it look square, I do like the hair a lot though, overall not a bad micro, just not amazing Vote: XxXxX Fatal FourwaySquig vs. M3G vs. Omnis vs. Adam Marvel Squig: really impressed with this one, you’ve really come a long way, especially in the past couple months. I think this tops Ezio as your best so far. There are some issues with it though, like others said the chin is very small and hard to see, also the waist is thin, try either widening it or narrowing the shoulders, bc they look a little too wide. Very nice work with the crossed arm pose, its tough to pull off well, but it works here. Keep at this pace and you’ll probably start dominating Mach: Another great addition to your Mario set. Like the others in it, I love the shading here, the style matches the games perfectly, looks like something Strider produced. My favourite part has gotta be the big grin, the teeth look flawless Omnis: It’s a good micro on its own, but it compared to the others it just doesn’t stand out as much. The face and hair look good, as does the attire but the blue shading gets lost to me, the colour looks a little too oversaturated. AM: I like that you went with something from scratch, the head actually looks really good, but its very hard to see the light yellow parts, try adding a darker outline and contrast the shading in the light parts more. Try to stay away from pillow shading too, its really apparent in the orange bits. Shorts and shoes look very good Vote: Mach Exhibition MatchCMC vs. eMasson vs. JX CMC: Same comments as when you posted it really, good resemblance, good shading, I still think it looks stocky in the midsection though Emasson: The main thing making it look flat is that most of the shading is kept to the edges. Add some creases around where the foot meets the pants, the knees, and the crotch. Its also very hard to see the shading in the hair and face. I’d suggest using a different body temp too cuz the way you shade clothes and the way the body is shading are very different. JX: I’ve said it a bunch of times before but I don’t like the blurry look on micros, it just looks like an overload of photoshop effects. I mean it still looks good, but with a normal amount of shades I think it would look awesome, probably one of your best. But the skin has an odd colour and some of the detail in it just gets lost in the shades Vote: CMC

Cane vs MJH:
Cane: I really love the pose, the hand looks a bit weird, but still looks awesome! I really love the shading as well.
MJH: I'm really enjoying your recent micros, my only issue is the face, the cheeks look a bit strange, but other than that it's perfect.
My vote: Cane, by a little bit, the pose pushed it ahead.
Tag Team: XxXxX (something like that) vs Monjatude Adjusted
I really love canes and txfs great job the face on txfs is just superb, the detail is wonderful. While I like aa's and monja's, they don't stand out and unfortunately are going against tough competition.
My Vote: TXF and Cane
Alex vs MJH
Alex: just perfect, the visors awesome, fuck it, the whole thing is.
MJH: ditto at what cane said, superb job though
My Vote: Alex
Triple Threat: CMC: great job, crisp and simple, the hips are a bit too high, but love the micro
eMasson: same as what everyone else said, also a better color palette might help as well
JX: a little too blurry, if it was sharper, you probably could have had this.
My Vote: CMC

I think after this ppv I'm gonna take a break from micros everytime I try to do one for fun I can't bring myself to get past the leg and every time I do a competitive one it comes out shit and I get my ass handed. I don't think Alex is too pleased that I'm copying his style either

Start with the legs next time silly :X I love your micros though! It's just the face that put me off on this one.

Your micros don’t come out as “shit”, your Fallout micro’s gotten a lot of praise, also I’m totally fine if you wanna use that style, when I said I was tired of it, I meant working with it myself, which is why I’ve been moving away from it.

Hurricane because it's just all around awesome. Flawless in my opinion. MJH's Edge is okay to me. I see some resemblance but not a lot. I really like the designs and tattoos, but the boots are eh. MJH probably would've gotten my vote if Josh's wasn't posed and pixelated sex. Once again, Josh's skill at making sexy posed micros helps him get my vote. The only thing I don't really like about it is the random scribbles on the boots. For once, I'm not completely amazed my TXF's micro. The face is alright to me, and the attire is pretty bland. That CM Punk is probably the best Punk i've ever seen. The face is just amazing. But the Kofi is what keeps me from giving them the vote. Both of these are pretty sweet. Too much of a close contest for me to be able to decide. Mach gets my vote here because it's pretty much the only one that really appeals to me. The colors are spot on and really eye catching. CMC's has the best resemblance here so he's getting my vote. Sorry for being so lazy with the votes, I have kidney stones or a kidney infection, so i'm in quite a bit of pain.

I think it's clear to say the matches have all been decided. None are close and I can't see any turnarounds happening, so I'll call this a wrap. Congratulations all! A new card will be up probably sunday.
I think I've got an idea for it too.... Champion vs. Champion?

Great micros guys! Here's my take on everything. I'm not reading the other posts, as not to sway my decision so I'm unsure if voting is still going on, but here's my take:
MS World Championship - The Rematch Hurricane (c) vs. MJH Really good micros. Cena is really good, and it's posed so that's a plus. The title belt is pretty damn good. It's got some great resemblance to John Cena as well. Edge is damned good, it's got that evil unattractive Edge look to it. Sleezy is the word. The attire is decent, it's kind of rough around the edges but the logos and boots are good looking. My Vote: Hurricane
MS Tag Team Championships XxXxX (c) vs. Monjatude Adjusted Big Show is sick, the body has a lot of resemblance to Show, the head however doesn't have as much, but you can tell it's Big Show. Taker is pretty good too, shading stands out and the face has resemblance to the deadman. CM Punk is great, excellent even. The only that bugs me is the chest hair. Chest hair is one of those annoying things though...but it's still a great micro. Kofi is decent, not a ton of resemblance in the face, but again you can tell who it is. I think it could be a ton better though. My Vote: XxXxX
MS Non-Wrestling Championship Alex (c) vs. MJH Jesus, two memorable micros here...freaking amazing guys. Samus is amazing, the shading and specular gloss on the armor is awesome looking. The Brotherhood of Steel solider, which I hope I'm right in saying that it's a knight of the Brotherhood of Steel otherwise I'm retarded...it's amazing. I have no complaints about either of these micros...it's incredibly difficult to judge... My Vote: MJH
Fatal Fourway: Winner Gets A N-W Championship shot at Micromania! Squig vs. M3G vs. Omnis vs. Adam Marvel Some great micros here from some people with awesome potential. Squig, it's great but if I hadn't played Modern Warfare I wouldn't know who it is. The head could use some work but I like it. Mach, your Mario Universe micros have been awesome, they're memorable and well done. Omnis, while it's cool you found a loophole, in my opinion you made a bad move using a custom wrestler from a wrestling game. Nobody knows who he is other than you , so they have nothing to compare it to so you would have to shade it and do amazing details on it to garner a vote, which you didn't do...it looks like a basic custom micro bro. Adam Marvel, I think it's pretty good but it could use some work. The shading is a bit choppy. My Vote: M3G
Exhibition Match CMC vs. eMasson vs. JX These three are all pretty good. CMC, it's really well done. I like it a lot, the shaping is weird in some spots but it's pretty nicely done. eMasson, it's not bad...the face could use better shading but white is one of those shitty colors to shade. JX, I like how the face paint looks kind of...realistic and smeared, however the pants appear too tight and the weird shading on the arm throws me off. My Vote: CMC
