Reason: Was unanimously supported last time, but stayed 1.5 supports short of the minimum. According to earlier nominator Adam Cuerden, this lithograph demonstrates a very advanced technique that results in the fading of more distant objects.

Support for the use in lithography. J Milburn (talk) 18:23, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support: ooh, interesting! This is a great example of lithography, and adds plenty of EV to Battle of the Little Bighorn. No real technical squabbles from my admittedly shallow depth of digital imagery experience. bahamut0013^words _deeds 14:54, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The EV for Battle of the Little Bighorn seems very weak as the horses and riders in the front centre overlap so severely that it appears that they're occupying the same bit of ground! As a result, this is not an accurate depiction of the battle. Nick-D (talk) 23:42, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Agreed that the BoLBH EV is minimal; I was supporting (and I get the impression PLW was nominating) for the EV in lithograph. J Milburn (talk) 16:52, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yes, I was following Adam's lead; the instructions do say most to least EV, so it would imply most in lithograph and least in battle of LB. I think we're meant to give a full list of articles where the image is transcluded. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 15:28, 28 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - Happened to look over this page today. I'm still mostly retired though - my new work's been going up on my DeviantArt account. It's in the section on The Battle of Little Bighorn in art. If the article didn't have that section, I wouldn't have put it in. Also, may as well Support. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 13:11, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
