Hell yes.
I can't believe these two were eliminated.
Both gentlemen are incredibly talented and I look forward to seeing their work in the future.

Can't. Sobbing.

*sob*

Can I just say that I have, quoth Patrick Swayze, had the time of my life? I've made solid pals, grown as an artist and seen some really thrilling artwork. A really unique experience - I'm only sad that I'll never go through something like this ever again.

Good luck to the final two. And huge respect for my fellow fallen- every damn one of them is a star.

Cheers,

Dan

You guys were super awesome this round (and all the others!) and I'm glad to have played alongside you. Both of you are extremely slick illustrators and really shined.

Default Cheers!

As much as the art, I'm impressed with the professionalism and good spirit that both of these gentleman have shown throughout this!

Now seriously Caio, where are my bananas?!?!?!? I happen to LIKE bananas!

And Dan, (if that IS your real name) next time I'm in Jolly old England I'll come and try one of those food items you're so good at making.

I too would like to congratulate these two. While I know working for the big guys is where the money is at, I hope to see more personal/indie work from these two.

I never knew you guys even know bananas! :o I mean, there is this powerfield over Brazilian territory that deteriorates every banana that scapes from our country... and... ok, ok! I'll send your bananas, just you wait a little longer because they only grow in the forest of eternal doom and yada-yada-yada...

Dan and Caio, you were my favorite artists in the contest and considering how good all the contestants are, that's saying a lot.

Dan, I hope to buy your books very soon, you're awesome.

Caio, I've said it before and will say it again, you're destined to work on comics. Your got style and the potential for being a star. MBB is proud of you.

I'm not very good with words (even the portuguese ones), so I'll keep it short.

Lemme thank:

- all the CBR crew for this oportunity and for the great job behind the scenes;
- all the other contestants who made this competition so tough and so good!
- and above all, my MBB fellas. I'll never thank you all guys enough.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
