Curse

I can see that there are some great artists on this forum. Draw my own character is a dream for me, but... unfortunately, I'm not very talented ^^'
That's why I (Alexia Ombrepierre) decided with my twin (Ophelia Ombrepierre) to organize a contest, with 600k for prizes.
We hope that it will be enough to motivate GWGuru's talents

Theme is not free, sorry ^^ You have to draw a particular scene.
My twin sister is sick since 3 days. She stays in the bed because chill, and I take care about her. This morning, I help her to take a invigorating footbath, and I give her foot massages. She feels a bit better, so I'm happy, and we thought about this scene for a contest.

That's not an easy scene to draw, because interaction between 2 characters. And draw feet is often considered as the hardest body part. But some artists here are absolutely able to draw it ^^'
Something important : for this scene, we must feel that the twins have a powerful relationship! (in the life, we live a fusional relationship)

Here is the prizes list :

- Winner : 300k
- 2nd place : 100k + various items (list coming soon!)
- 3rd place : 10 onyx

There will be 10 rewarded people.

Well, here is a list of 20 green items as rewards for 2nd, and 4th place to 10th :

- 1 Books of secrets Orseis
- 1 Sharktooth shield (tactic 9) Kuri
- 1 Focus of the Master (s.reaping 9)
- 1 Focus of the Master (s.reaping 9)
- 1 Orosen's staff (spawning power 9) Kuri
- 1 Scepter of the Kepper (blood 9)
- 1 Scepter of the Keeper (blood 9)
- 1 The Stonereaper (curses 9)
- 1 Spiritgarden's Repose (d.favor 9) Lyllrik
- 1 Jedeh's artifact (communing 9)
- 1 Luluh's spear (spear 9)
- 1 Havok's shield (tactic 9) Orseis
- 1 Murakai's Blade (sword 9) Lyllrik
- 1 Aegis of the Condemned (tactic 9)
- 1 Rocktail's Stinger (sword 9)
- 1 Murakai's Maul (hammer 9)
- 1 Kaolin Wand (spawning power 9) Gervasium
- 1 Morgriff's Scepter (death 9)
- 1 Korvald's Cane (domination 9) Gervasium
- 1 Hajok's Prism (fire 9)

Each candidate'll choose 2 items. The first person to choose will be the number 2 in the academic rank ^^ And the last will be the 10th rewared.

Contest will end on december 1st.

I have to post following images here. There are more detailed.
Don't forget that Ophelia and me (Alexia) are absolutely identical ^^'

If eagle armor doesn't suit you, we have another favorite armor :

Marhan's Grotto Exclusive Armor

PS: Excuse my crappy english level, I'm french : D

Wowie, nice prizes indeed. And a very different kind of subject too, interesting and challenging. Your warrior twins are quite the pretty ones. Have to see if I have the time for this competition. It seems I'm always stuck with the 'night before deadline' routine.

Hmmm, did you want the foot bath or the foot massage?

It's the same scene, but massage ^^
I dip her feet into a water bowl, and I give fine foot massages

Here is a picture about that :

Nian> Thanks for your interest! I just take a look to some drawings from you, and you seem very talented!
Yes, the subject is not ordinary, but it's a good representation of our twins relationship ^^'

Perynne · Oct 27, 2007, 04:51 PM // 16:51

Very interesting subject yeah, and your warrior ladies are quite beautiful. :3 I'll have to see if I have time to draw something. Like Nian said, the "night before" routine is very familiar to me too.

sickle of carnage · Oct 27, 2007, 05:18 PM // 17:18

Alright, I may give it a shot. When's the deadline? (sorry, searched for it but couldn't find it...)
EDIT: Found it :$

Woop Shotty · Oct 27, 2007, 08:15 PM // 20:15

I'm sorry. Maybe I should keep to myself as I usually do, but this is very strange to me. Why would you put forth so much game value for an illustration depicting two game characters interacting by giving a foot bath? I hope you have more memorable moments than that!

I'm a little disturbed by this, really. Foot bath in real life, ok. You made a nice gesture to your twin, and I'm sure it was appreciated. Commemorating it with an art contest, I just can't understand.

Ombrepierre · Oct 27, 2007, 09:56 PM // 21:56

Woop> It's really a memorable moment for us... Ophelia is not only my family, my twin, she is my best friend too. I'm happy to be present for her when she feels sick... This scene is very symbolic, that means our solidarity!
Imho, you really need to experience that to fully understand our relationship ^^'

Perynne> Awaiting the last night would be perfect for an Alfred Hitchcock's surprise ending

Sickle> December 1st midnight (Pacific Standard Time)

Elite Zeon · Oct 27, 2007, 10:27 PM // 22:27

Hmm, I'd like a shot at this, my artwork isn't that great, but hey, I wanna try out different drawing styles with different types of situations.

Also gotta think of what to do for a Halloween comic I want to do before this

Piglou · Oct 27, 2007, 10:53 PM // 22:53

Salut OmbrePierre!
Here is my entry

I hope it matches your idea

Bye.

Ombrepierre · Oct 27, 2007, 11:22 PM // 23:22

Oh!! What a rapidity!!

We are really bluffed, because your work has already a great level of quality ^^'
That's a good news for the contest.

It's the first art, so you are at the first place in the academic rank! For the moment : D

Piglou · Oct 27, 2007, 11:29 PM // 23:29

Thank you! But it is not a race, so it is no use to maintain a rank list.

Ombrepierre · Oct 27, 2007, 11:36 PM // 23:36

Don't worry, it was just a joke ^^'

Kuri · Oct 29, 2007, 09:22 PM // 21:22

I'm afraid it's not very good

Don't say that, it's another graphic style, very pastel ^^
The most important in this contest is to communicate an emotion. And when I see your drawing, with a twin sleeping and her sister taking care about her, I can feel the strong relationship between them! : D
