    The Quebec poster is a totem and once you get it off that green background it is actually a pretty nice poster. The green and the black are a really nice contrast and it pops the image off the page which changes the overall look. I say this as someone who didn't like in the pics but liked it in person.

    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Ottawa. Too bad it's not a choice, because I don't think it's a little better than the rest. I think it is BY FAR the coolest poster of the tour. Blows everything else out of the water. IMO.

    Objectively, just by the artwork, I have to say Toronto 2.

    MY favorite is the NYC 1 Owl though.

    Wow...as of now I'm the only one who picked NOLA???? I also liked the Tampa one. The Miami one is pretty solid.

    I guess I'm not that into the animals and the skulls.

    New York City 2 - David Welker
    MSG 2

    I was skeptical until I got it home but Welker's shading technique is unreal to the point of optical illusion. Add the NYC reference (I bought and prefered the BrokenFingaz NYC '15 since birds aren't my thing) and choice was easy.

    Both Fudge posters deserve huge applause as visually I think both were top 5 this tour. Quebec was my #2 by a long shot and I really enjoyed how refreshing his art was to the usual cast of characters

    NOLA needs another color to me...it just seems like it is missing something. I want to like it because I went to the show, but it is in my bottom 3 for this tour.

    Probably not the best when it comes to overall art, but by far the coolest looking IMO

    I don't have a clue about what the Quebec poster is supposed to be. It is just hideous.

    You don't know what a totem is....?
    Yeah, I know it is a totem.

    the picture doesn't do it justice, the colours are so bright and it stands out nicely on my wall...I do wish there was an option for Ottawa though

    Art is definitely subjective...

    Klausen, Sperry, Tampa and MSG 2 are beautiful.

    Don't understand the love for Lex. That's been done before.

    I like the msg 1 bioworkz the best. Its a gorgeous image, coloring, font, and even the bordering. Went to the framers and every arrangement we tried with it looked amazing.

    Toronto 2 comes in second for me. Just like the previous cardinals print, mark 5 knocked it out of the park.

    3rd a tie between sperry and klausen. Both awesome and really made the aquatic theme their own

    All the above are prints i wouldnt mind hanging anywhere in the house (and my wife would allow it). To me, that is always my top criteria (and why i dislike prints with skulls, devils, clowns, dead animals, blood, etc).
    The rest of the prints im not so sure pass the "can i hang this anywhere" test.



    It isnt mentioned much, but the fudge qc print is really sharp. My friend got one at the tor 1 show and i am flattening it for him. It is an overused adjective... but it really pops.

    Love the two Florida prints. The fact that they have a water beach mermaid Florida thing going on took them over the top for me. I'm not into posters that have random stuff on them, they have to have something to do with the venue or city nowadays for me.

    I probably should have waited to vote until mine arrives to see it again... I saw it behind the glass at the merch stand in MSG and I really liked it

    The more I look at it, the more I like that Fort Lauderdale poster too.

    If I were at that show, that would be a must have for me.

    I should have included the Tampa Pendleton and not the Jazzfest... oh well, it wouldn't win this poll anyway...

    the posters I thought would do well are getting the votes, but I am a little surprised Toronto 2 is winning by that much
