Mystical Miss: Tea: Try and press your colored pencil harder to get deeper colours, it works great, I've done it a lot lately, you go through ur pencil twice as quick but it gives a great effect to mix light pencilstrokes with heavily pressed ones, and I wonder, will there be eyes?

Yeah, I do that somewhat, but my scanner doesn't like anything I do anymore, so the color always comes out shotty.

And no, there won't be eyes. That's just how I roll. :P

Hopefully I get the finishing touches done before midnight... >.<

I was planning on getting it done last night, but I ended up in the hospital from an exposed root in one of my teeth.

Well here is mine. Not exactly what it was supposed to be two weeks ago. I went through so many ideas and I was running out of time.










So many entries this is going to be a tough one to judge

thats awesome lili, i recognize that style from browsing through last years winners. From memory you came 3rd with the ballroom theme? forgive me if i'm wrong

The work: Great astmosphere, the expressions and the body language convey the intimidating scene very effectively! PS. i'm loving the clean cut lines ^^

good luck!

That is so incredibly cute Lili. I love it. The detailed background looks really good, esp. liking the evil trees.

Just a reminder that the contest is over in exactly 24 hours! So if you have an entry you want to submit, make sure you submit it today.

Also, we've made some changes to the prize lists. We originally planned to have an individual category ("honourable mentions") for drawings which were of relatively bad quality (simple stick drawings, simple photoshops, etc), but since we've had almost none of such entries we'll be removing that category, and extending the main prize lists with the prizes which was supposed to go into honourable mentions category.

Also, thanks to a donation from a friend I'm able to increase the overall gold prizes one final time. I decided to increase the prizes for duo prizes since I get the impression most of the competition is for that category.

Prizes for pictures with both Shan and Sanra:
1st place: 200k + special prize
2nd: 100k
3rd: 75k
4th: 60k
5th: 50k
6th: 40k
7th: 30k
8th: 20k
9th: 15k
10th:10k
11th: Mini pet Varesh + 5k
12th: Necrid pet Horseman + 4k
13th: Mini pet Warthog + 3k
14th: Mini pet Warthog + 2k
15th: Mini pet Warthog + 1k


Prizes for pictures with only Sanra or Shan:
Best Shan picture: 150k + special prize
Best Sanra picture: 150k + special prize
3rd place: 60k
4th: 55k
5th: 45k
6th: 35k
7th: 25k
8th: 20k
9th: 15k
10th: 10k
11th: Mini pet Jade Armor + 5k
12th: Mini pet Fungal Wallow + 4k
13th: Mini pet Warthog + 3k
14th: Mini pet Warthog + 2k
15th: Mini pet Warthog + 1k


So the very final amount of gold prizes sum up to: 1195k!

My entry:


Done with copic markers, coloured pencils and some touch-ups in Photoshop.

So many people ended up doing their entries on the computer, so I decided to stand out from the group and go traditional. Which didn't end up being a wise choice... >_> Note to self: remember to check that your markers actually WORK before starting to colour. Also, get more markers. A few base shades just doesn't cut it. Anyway... better luck next time.

Aeeh, there's just so much amazing artwork around! I can't wait to see the results!

Single entry:
All I can say is wheew....! After a day's worth of mesmerizing, Sanra is tired out. After this I am also...a bit roughed out now.

I was originally planning to draw a pic based on some of the mesmer skill icons but didn't find any I particularly liked for the task. Although this one made me laugh a lot because the artwork is of a hot mesmer male behind a dumbfounded wammo haha, me not knowing much about mesmer skills since I don't have a mesmer. Now I want one... :/

EDIT:// Fixed a spelling mistake in my duo piece...
