We had 11 people total in the contest, and I am very happy about it! We had some BEAUTIFUL art, and it was just great to see everyone's imagination. Thank you all so much for participating! *BeckaNeeChan, ~qui8 and I have conversed to decide the ones that made the cut! And now, on to....

THE WINNERS

1st Place!
~Fenrixion  All three of us judges had this as our first pick. We loved the art, were stunned by the technique, and amazed by the creativity! Good job!

2nd Place!
*0--Mistress--Misa--0 We were blown away by this piece. I especially loved how the outfit was changed, it was so creative and beautiful! Great job!

3rd Place!
=Merakhni This piece was so pretty! Cynthia is so cool here, and I love how the night sky/galaxy was done, it is so captivating! I also love the kitten by her hand. Nice touch!

THAT ISN'T ALL! We have two HONORABLE MENTIONS!
Honorable Mentions!
~aalenfae While this didn't quite make the cut, the judges and myself felt like it was a very creative, very well-done piece that really stood out! Good job!

~Sketchq Honestly, from the moment I saw this piece, I loved it. The art is not quite the quality of the winning circle, but it really embodied what I wanted the contest to be about; creativity. This 'dark' side of Cynthia is so cool, so wicked, that I feel it is just so amazing! It had to get an honorary spot.

~TKVonMerrik I personally picked this piece, because I really loved it! The pose, the magic swirling around her, it all has such a pretty feel. I really enjoyed the picture and how earthy and Naeris-like it was! Good job!


That is it! BUT EACH NON-WINNING PARTICIPANT gets 5 just for being in the contest! And both honorable mentions get some prizes, they have been added to the list of prizes below!
Thank you all again so much! PLEASE NOTE that I will get to contacting you about the prizes sometime during the week!
