I bet Draken is secretly ambidextrous. I couldn't even hit an A4-sized sheet of paper with a pencil in my left hand, you know. Gorgeous colours and great lighting. Time well spent, I'd say.

seconded, that fur looks A-MAY-ZING!
Sorry to hear, DBAA, would be so great to have you on board!
☆Hey, Thistle! I want to participate in the workshop!☆ Name: SunRoamer Idea for entry: Divinity Switch fighting the evil Freezie! Art form type: Digital illustration Progress Gallery Link: In fact, this post will become my progress gallery!
The beginning: Sketching out different ideas
Death and Life, winter and spring, Dwayna and Grenth - eternal alternation; or Destiny's Blunt Blade facing off against the menacing Snowman hoarding all dem shinies to himself!
More sketching: After listening you guys' feedback, decided to go with the Snowman-fight; tried a different sketch of said fight.
Imho the new sketch gets the immediate action feeling across, whereas the original one is more like "oh shiiiiit"
Starting the real work: Most people wanted me to go along with the original sketch, so that's what I did!
Took some of the composition and perspective changes from my second sketch and integrated them into my original sketch; it feels a lot closer to the viewer now, not as disconnected as it used to be!
Continuing: Put down some colours etc.
Just some general progress, nothing groundbreaking really.
The power of a background: I added an actual background and holy mother of god! It looks entirely different!
Seriously, the biggest change was simply adding a background and playing around a little with some lights; the effect however is incredible! (imho)
Probably final: Working in between all the festivities and stuff like meeting old friends
Finishing up... the colours got screwed up! Switched from Corel Painter X to 12, and it seems that the colours in Painter 12 are presented somewhat messed up! :/

@Morag I really hope I can make the time to enter the workshop. They're always so much fun and really beneficial to me. I just really want to take my time with this upcoming painting to assure that it goes better than I could hope.
So its like "wanna finish fast, so I have time for the workshop. Wanna finish slow so I doesn't mess up and do a really good job" ~paradox~
Okay so maybe I'll go to bed now, but I'll be online the next few days and ready for trading goods with whomever is responsible.
*hugs* Thanks Tzu! Sent you a PM

Pretty much what Konig said If you're using imageshack or photobucket already to host your images, you can link to the gallery with all your wintersday stuff already in it (assuming you made a separate gallery for your wintersday pics) Others have linked a guru post, dA, etc ... what ever suits your fancy
Also, I want to give a HUGE thank you to our fabulous Tzu for her massive donation of 500 ectos
EDIT: Another big thank you to Obastable for her donation (she wanted to be anonymous, but psh, credit all the way )! Double thank you for going through and finding stuff to stack with what's in the prize pool, too

@Valdis the Unmaker
(2) Hail Grenth (digital painting)
Looks awesome. DO you think you will add snow? Or would that not fit in the
drawing. I think it look nice with snow ..GJ cant wait to see more
@Morag D
Again can`t express how beautiful your art looks. I assume your going to
add that glossy effect to it. It`s hard to explaine what I mean you know
those pictures you posted to show what kind of idea you had..that kind of
effect would look amazing as end work if thats possiable. GJ love it. I think I mean like a realistic glass effect..i`m just curious
@Tee Wrex
