Default Results from an Alliance Art Event, "The Lago Shrine"

I had planned to make an art competition this spring, but I got it ready one day too late (just after Sectus and Shan had launched their). With all the followers it spawned I decided to make it an alliance event instead. I got some very impressive submissions. A very rewarding way to spend all my gold accumulated through 2 years.

The Event was to make "image" of my necro "Lago Mortis". I provided some screenshots to give inspiration and "photoshop fuel".

RESULTS
I valued creativity and good ideas as highly as skills to materialize them!
This is what I, after quite a struggle, came up with:

1st place: 250k + one of each dye
Tia


"Lago Mortis and Rurik the Prince of Ascalon"
Comment: Spot-on comic! Really good storytelling, With a great beginning and an absolutely hillarious ending!
The Artist got inspired and followed it up with another piece:
Lago Mortis in Elona -- Land of the Golden Sun

2nd: 150k + one of each dye
Nenearen


"Lego Lago - Tree"
Comment: Really creative - especially since you get the absurdly matching title "Lego Lago" that surely will spawn a new line of lego toys!

3rd: 100k + one of each dye
Arthur


"no title"
Comment: To me this is an amazing craftmanship and I really like the look - "Don't mess with me!"

4th: 50k
Thalion

Eggtragedy
Comment: Another hillarious one. It took me some time to discover all detals.

My gold secret: I spend very little and play regulary. Though I never farm or trade, the gold just keeps trinkle in slowly but steady, about 2-3k each day, just by playing. So it add ups after some time. Now I'm back almost from scratch, but in my opinion it was very well spent money to people who really deserved it.

Regards,
Cloudbunny
