@ Spirit of the sea: Sorry I do not understand what you mean, can you repeat in readable english?

I just draw too quickly, I start with the details and stuff quickly as well and when its finished theres always one thing that isn't quiet right (not all that wrong either though) oh well I guess I have loads to learn (which is great, if ppl call my work pretty good now, its gna be really good when I have learned a lot

)

As for that cape, it shouldnt be all that hard really, it hangs to the inside on the left, just make it hang to the outside and its fine really (well thats what I think) [EDIT] Nevermind, I was mistaken, its a lot harder than it looked at first, the cape on the right side wouldn't fit with it

@SPIRIT OF THE SEA: Insinuating that contestants would use another persons material is an insult to those who have made serious entries. And ironically enough you are a hypocrite, considering that your entry consisted of the avatar forms art made by ANet available on their website.

Please do not post in this thread again. Because your complete neglect of the first posts content consisting of the rules is appalling.

Ah so thats what he meant, btw question: I have grenth and balthazar in the middle of the picture a few enemies around them, the gods are centered though.. is this allowed? ( I think so, but just checking) As the gods are not the only ones in the drawing... there are a few margonites around as well and some tormented claws.. decided to do some sort of action picture..

Yay more entries

Hard one, 5 on one page, and all in different not too easy poses! I don't have the time atm to go into every detail, but I do have some ideas for background..

First of all, when u are finished with the characters, scan it! So that if it goes wrong with the paint, you wont be screwed...

Then I would do the edges of the paper dark and work to a lighter middle area (how to do this is up to u) so the gods really stand out.

I'll try to remember to get back to this and give some more comments! good work gervasium!

Please be gentil and don't copy my drawing. Really, all you have to do is photocopy the original, and experiment on the copy. that way if you mess up, u wont ruin the original, you know? when you figure out what you want to do, then you can paint on the actual drawing. hope that helps.

im watercoloring my pictures.

Rough sketch based on greyf0x_f0x's awsome picture. I'm putting this here because I'm not going to finish it. While it didn't take that long to do this sketch (less than 30 minutes), I'd much rather finish my picture of Dwayna. Once again, thanks, greyf0x_f0x, for the inspiration of the "behind-hug" idea.

Well after finally finding some spare time, I've decided to try my hand at the 3 female goddesses (I'm not sexist or anything, just had more inspiration for those 3 >.<). I suck at computer coloring and lack the necessary material atm to color these so I guess it's just plain inking for me, please bear with me

VERY rough sketch of Dwayna...

While the pose was good, I just couldn't capture the "elegance" that is of Dwayna.

I might or might not submit this, depending on how the final comes out.

P.S. I love Meg.

Emulation is the best form of flattery and is also the quickest way to learn how to draw. ^_~

Also, I think I've seen that same kind of picture in my family photo album... O.o

*sigh* well after feeling so cheap about my pictures(no thanks to you guys >.<), I decided to do a quick color comb for Dwayna just for fun ^_^. Note that this was done very fast in about 15min so be gentle on the critics please

.

Hope I'm less cheap now

.

And to Felix, thanks for the good comments though ^_^.

Soo.. yeah. Looks like I won't be able to submit my art, so I'm pulling out (or resigning?) from the contest.

But I saw all the art everyone submitted. Great job! ^_~

Of everything I've seen so far in the thread, Nith's should take the top spot. Of course, there are still a few days to go yet, and I'm sure there will be other entries...

I scrapped my dwayna sketch, it was ok, but I wanted somthing a bit different. So I've had a bash at Abaddon. Hopefully I'll have a coloured version finished by the end of the contest

"May Abaddon feast on your eyes!"

I'll probably tinker with it a little. However, what you can't tell from the sketch, is that she's wearing armour. That's why there's added definition to her abdomen. Take a looksy:

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Image:Kormir.jpg

That picture isnt the best around (I took a ton of ingame shots to work on >_>) but you get an idea of the style of armour.
