Should have won first place, fuck.

I agree, the others were.. well, nvm. Lol

100% awesome. #11 is a shame to humankind compared to this.

Oh, and please upload Thanatos so I can fave the crap out of it, then gush over its awesomeness. @v@

You think Thanatos is that good? 8_8;

I was actually pretty frustrated with it because it was so messy and unprofessional, haha.

^_^; You're too nice.

Thanks for the support you guys!

I'm just glad I placed. :] I hope a better array of entries are presented next time.

The compositions and posing of the piece make it feel like a scene in action, the swirl of colors adding to this effect and filling up the whole canvas to make it even more atmospheric. The gold detailing/engraving on Thanatos was really intriguing (did you use a pattern brush?) since it could have looked too feminine, but you managed to pull it off so that it imparted a air of archaic granduer. And the spell circle was epic. Spell circles are always epic, dammit. And the lighting, the expressiveness of the claws, the smokey darkness trailing behind...and as always, the colors...

You know, I think you just made Thanatos sexy. So wrong.

I think it's my favorite piece of all your art, it's just got this aura of 100% pure certified EPIC.

Oh haha I actually recycle my compositions. I tend to place things on the bottom of one side and make things swirl to the other side.

the flower was a vector brush from some place [unfortunately I forgot who made it :[] Everything else was hand drawn. Another one of my ms drawings has similar designs. XD

I'm glad you like it. 8D It was more of an experimental drawing for me since I'm not good with dark-themed CGs.

OMG
OMGOMGOMGOMG
YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I love this drawing! D:
I'm mad beyond mad it didn't win!
It totally should have your art style was so creative compared to the other artwork (not saying all of them were bad)

And I agree with Etherpendant
Upload Thanatos! D:<
