My mesmer demanded me to make a new commission thread so here i am
due to the succes of my last contest back in august-october i decided to make a similair on with a few added points of difficulty (this also includes more prizes)
Due to te reason GW2 is coming not to far in the future (and me not spending me cash) i decided it was time for this.
now here is what the contest is about:
I got 4 characters i commonly use: my mesmer, Ranger, Monk and Ritualist, and all off them wanted to be in this thread when they heard about the demand my mesmer made.
I want to have a picture to remember all my good time in GW1 with atleast 2 off the 4 character (my mesmer is a must). The picture must show me how much i enjoyed these past few years on GW it will state suggestions and preferences further on.
here are some pictures of my characters:

- This contest will end on may 30th (thats 2 months from now).
- I reserve the right to change the prizes(i will only make the prizes better so dont fear~~), also if there arent sufficient entries i might consider not giving the first prize but instead the second or third prize, wich i hope is not needed offcourse)
- When the contest is over the winners will be announced and the prizes will be given away in Balthazar's Temple Internation district 1 (I will send you a message if you have won and ask for a time we can meet to hand out the prize).
- The judges will be 1st me some friends off mine and perhaps some guildies,

Your last "CLICK ME!" text there doesn't seem to be hyperlinked properly. 
Right on the bottom line before the edit.
Those are some good looking characters. I really like the armour combos - especially on the monk!
I'll seriously consider entering this one... Do you have any info on your characters' personalities though? I could guess, but I might be way off... :P

the bunch of my characters are exactly what they seem:
Ranger:
he prefers to be alone in the echovald forest (or somewhere in the charr homelands) with his Black moa. He isnt much off the social type besides the few friends he has (wich are my 4 characters). His love for nature made him solitude to the rest of the world.
Monk:
the most lively one off the bunch, her passion for sweet liquor surpasses most dwarven (wich she has proven a few times during he stay in the southern shiverpeaks). She does love do stay with others and talk alot. Although she might be a monk she isnt the most religious one, she does her prayers more for the sake of her education then for her own. My monk always hated my mesmer for the fact that he drains the storage vault for his shopping.
Mesmer:
what to say about my main character, he loves expensive clothes (drains my storage on occasion for shopping), he always been in love with my monk but never dared to admit, his pride stands in his way for this (a women isnt supposed to drink more then him). He is best home in the southern shiverpeaks or the nornland drinking ale in the nearest tavern after a good day slaying monsters.
Ritualist:
She is the most mysterious one out the bunch, she is always studying the old books in the temple and became solitude only to have her spirits as company. She has traveld the world exploring many cultures and in most cases she first runs off the the nearest temple to study their magics. Currently she is staying with palawa joko to study the undead and their magic for summoning spirits and flesh creatures out off the mists.
My character met eshoulder in pre searing trying to pass for the vanguard exam. During their encounter with palawa joko they met their 4th and final member off the crew kasumi (she was the greatest help in defeat of the god of secrets)
i hope this little background story inspired you~~

After searching for one hour I finally have an idea xD.
But I have a little question : your monk isn't secretly in love with your mesmer ? Btw : could you put a side screenshot of your mesmer and your rit ?
Richo
RedStar
Ok thank you ^^.
I want to make them hug, but I have a better (and funnier) idea .
dagger rain
This contest sounds cool.
I guess I'll enter too.
RedStar
Sorry, but could you post your monk wearing another armor because I'm having a real hard time trying to draw the elite woven
 .
ShadowsRequiem
Hmmm pretty interesting :P I'll have to see if I can get off my lazy butt and draw XD

i do like 15k canthan alot aswell:

Hope you think it's okay that I chose a bit of a comical theme to it, and your monk may be more obvious in the picture than your mesmer is. Their interaction is the whole point though. Also, they are dressed down somewhat, but there's a reason for it.
In a day or two, hopefully, I'll be done :3 EDIT: finished colouring monk and ritualist today. here's a small peek at the work in progress :3 mwaha <3 have a guess who/what it is 8-) note that the final outcome may look quite different :P

If most of the entries live up to my expectationts it doesnt matter wich amount of entries have been made.
I MClassic
Do you prefer colored pictures? (My sketches tend to look better than my colored pictures...because I'm really not the best at line art and coloring with photoshop...)
Sjeng
Well, I didn't want to interfere in your contest, so I deliberately set my deadline 2 months after yours, so that artists that would want to participate in both would not have to choose between the two.
Furthermore, I started my contest after most of the contestants of your contest had already entered. So I don't think that my contest is the reason (I certainly don't hope so, and didn't intend to). I hope your entries will be plentyfull

I hope your entries will be plentyfull well it might be a reason, and if it was i wouldnt dare to blame ya sjeng anyway 4 days left i hope i will get alot of entries still as it would be sad not giving away the first price 
Morag D
whee, now that it's kinda only a couple of days to the deadline I've suddenly decided that entering here might be a good idea... lulz. however, I'll see whether I can come up with something in time
edit: spent an amazingly dull day at uni trying to print off a poster (took about 6 hours to get through the printer queue, damn you, uni printers!) which gave me lots of time to think about it. and actually do something. my entry shows what a lonely night and too much ale can do to a mesmer... larger version: hope you like it!  btw, in case you couldn't guess, the lady in pink is Lyssa
Morag D
sorry for doublepost, just wanted to say that I tweaked the lineart a bit and that the images in the above post have been updated.
detail shots: enjoy *over and out*
Richo
it looks amazing

Two days left? I really need to check around here more often. :P
*Ponders* No doubt you'll get a lot more on the final day but the work shown so far looks very smart.
Richo
i do extend deadline with 1 week due request @ incgamers
deadline: 7th june
Tzu
D: extend...? that means I could make another entry/version ... hmm...
Anyway, this is my entry, for now. Please CLICK ON THE IMAGE FOR FULL SIZE. I wanted to capture your mesmer and his allies in a scene in which all of their personalities could be expressed, and of course your mesmer's attraction to your monk would become apparent. I decided to draw them a little dressed down, having fun by the lake which enters Ascalon city, a warm midsummer night. I know it's not technically possible for them to have shared this moment, seeing as your ritualist only met your other characters post-searing. However, by making it appear to be night and adding some mysterious glows and feathers to the wind, I hope to make it somewhat unclear whether it's real or just a dream. Your monk supposedly invites your mesmer to join her in the water, but your mesmer makes a slightly silly excuse not to with his pint of beer. Perhaps your mesmer is too shy, or perhaps he doesn't want his new clothes wet? Perhaps he will join her later. Your ranger steals a glance at Kasumi's lower back, trying to do so non-chalant and casually. We couldn't know whether or not Kasumi notices; she appears to be calmly communicating with the spirits in the water. I hope I captured your characters the way you wanted me to, and I hope you'll excuse me for dressing them down a bit. When I first started out, it was going to be a daytime picture and it looked like this: I found it a bit plain and boring though, so I experimented a bit and found out that the whole "midsummer nights" thing worked a lot better. It's also kind of special, seeing as none of us players ever experienced night-time Ascalon but our characters most probably did.
RedStar
So here's me entry...
