Kinglizard's Painting Avatar Set (Image Heavy) (CONTEST has ENDED)

who were those people that cracked part of the "Zodac" cypher? need to give em a call..
makes me wonder if am even CLOSE to being on the right track but here is what I have so far:

[22124]

123456789 | 0123456789 | 0123456
abcdefghi | jklmnopqrs | tuvwxyz

vax-22,1,24
bbld-2,2,12,4
vld-22,12,4
bun-2,21,24
vabd-22,1,2,4
and if you decode it with the base64 you get Ûmv - probably nothing but at this point I am ready to use any and ALL methods to figure this one out...

i say i believe in Occams razor...ha!
so lets start with that, eliminate all that doesn't fit and try a new mold when that one goes to pot..

What was the answer anyway?

William harnett - my gems

reply to post by blupblup


It is not William harnett's "my gems".

Absolutely gorgeous work, KL. Thanks for displaying the entire series. It's definitely the most well made and creative avatar I have ever seen on ATS. Very impressive how you did the lighting and thanks for showing them all to us.

That's all. I'm so not an art connoisseur so I have no guesses. lol But I did want to say how beautiful and creative the detail is in your series, the selection of the art you chose to display, and the lighting techniques.

Oh wow Ashley, that's really nice of you to say. Thank you so much, it means a lot to me.

Hint: The name of the artist and painting is within the puzzle image.

Full question and hint is an image in the OP, which consists of the artist's name and artwork.

Is it:

Jacques-Louis David
Portrait of Pierre Seriziat?

If I'm wrong, that's ok. At least I got my one allowed guess out of the way and I won't be obsessing about this all day.

It is not Jacques-Louis David's "Portrait of Pierre Seriziat".

Yeah sure.

It is not federico kuntz - portrait of amalia dellano.

The full name and full painting name is within the image. You just need to find it.

Everyone can guess again.

Is it:

Edward Ladell
The Tazza?

That was my second guess. After that, I've got nothing. lol

reply to post by AshleyD


It is not Edward Ladell The Tazza.
