I think the alien gives it away

fake_art.jpgI'm sure it's disrespectful and heretical in a thousand different ways, but I'm still rather fond of this counterfeit art competition with the following rules:

You will take any famous painting or artwork (any period is fine) and alter it in such a way that it is obviously a forgery, as in the themepost. As always, quality is a must. We will remove poor entries no matter how much we like you. You'll have 48 hours to submit for this contest, so make your submission count.

Well, at least they're paying attention to the masters.
