My pleasure, Olorc. Since I'll be out of town during most the contest, I won't be competing, but I look forward to seeing what everyone's done with the picture when I get back. Good luck everyone! Note: Cringes at the thought of what pilowswine's version will look like. :lol:

Erm... moved back as in to give us more time, or less time? I don't really mind either way. I haven't quite finished but if the deadline was moved forward I would probably just speed up my efforts. :)

Cool!
Well, I've mostly finished my entry, but I might wait a while and see if there's anything else I want to do to it before posting.
These coloring contests are good -not only are they fun, but we get to see other people's artwork, and when you practice colouring you learn a lot. I know I did when I worked on this pic.
Good on ya for coming up with this competition, Olorc, and I really like the pic, Esoteric. :thumb:

<sees chibi_chan's work, gets excited. Sits and waits anxiously to see who posts an entry first....>

Heh, I mean the fact that nobody's posted yet means you're all doing super jobs right? (either that, or that I made too complicated a picture! :sweat: )

Ooooo, wow, nice job, photosoph! The stars were a great idea.
Technically though, you aren't the first one to post.... Falcon posted a version, but he put it in the art contest forum. I replied and told him to put it here. Hope he does....

Wow -that's cool, Chibi-chan! I like your shading; I find it hard to shade in that style, especially clothing. I really like the way you've done the mask's eyes -and his too. I also like the colours you've chosen for the robe, vest thing and his armor. Dang... I should've done a red bird. It really reminds me of a phoenix. Excellent entry. :thumb:

Photosoph and Chibs, you all did some great coloring jobs! o_o/

[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE


You see into the deepest part of me ---

beyond the fog I hide behind.

You cast your light upon the shadows

that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.

You ease the pain when I am hurting,

and morbid visions from my past

pierce into the realm of Reason

as though I danced on blades of glass.

You grant me strength when I have fallen

and, once again, I've lost my way.

You take my hand in Yours and lead me

into the promise of a brand new day.

You bring order to all my chaos,

yet set my well-laid plans awry.

You place me on a firm foundation ---

then give me wings so I can fly.

You sand away my roughened edges

and polish all the dullest parts

until I stand before Your presence...

a newly-sculpted work of art.

You see into the heart within me,

right through my motives and selfish will.

And yet, in spite of all You see

You say You love me even still.

No, I haven't because I wouldn't know what to do. I leave the art to my kids, Chibs and Elric_kun. I'm more the writer-type. ;)

Wow, Chloe, I knew you had kids, but I didn't realise Chibi Chan and Elric_kun were your kids. Cool!

Excellent work, Falcon! And great textures. I really like the way you've got the staff, armor and mask looking metallic -not just in colour but the way you've shaded them. The shading on the blue ends of the robe really stands out; it really looks like silk or satin. I also like the tones of brown, blue and cream that you've used together.

And where's Piloswine's entry? He's suspiciously absent....
