EDIT:
The Drow vs. Mindflayer challenge is finally over and the judges gave their verdict. Surprisingly, I didn't win!


(note to self - this joke might get old soon)

But another surprise was that a wonderful entry by Robert Brown won! My personal favourite which I didn't think would click with the judges. Craig J. Spearing's third place was a surprise too, that was my other favourite one which I thought would win.

Anyway, I'm so glad I worked hard for this contest, Irene Gallo (google her, she's pretty great ) commented on my painting:

Irene Gallo - "Love the interplay of the characters. Perhaps some variations in color could help bring it to life a bit more."

and once again, she's absolutely right. These ArtOrder Tuesday challenges are awesome!

Surprisingly, I didn't win!

But what the hell, Lars Grant-West pointed out exactly what was wrong with that damned picture of mine and he's totally right. (and he says he likes it! *girly squeal* ) - I've been using aerial perspective for years now and I forgot to use it here, where massive scale is so important. Tsk tsk tsk. Shame on me.

A sudden found joy indeed. And there is a storm coming.
