Thank you so much for all the votes! Bronze was very unexpected, since it was just a quick and shoddy doodle. We had so many great entries this time! Really fun competition.

@Oxymandias: You can use my all artwork and writings all you like whenever you feel like it. :smile:

@ATOM sends his regards and permission to use it as well.

@a20t43c is a great comedian artist. You can all find his gallery here on Deviantart.

The fable that goes along with my giant stomp doodle can be found here.

Also a thanks to all the sponsors, that is a great range of prizes and if I said I was not jealous at all I would be a liar so I will not say that at all!

If only I could draw :sad:

Congrats all, great competition

@Zoddtheimmortal : I’ll cobble together a GH announcement when next I am home sufficiently long, and have energy. This weekend seems earmarked for carpentry, skiing and being play-slave for my stepsiblings.

Same goes for sending out prizes, it might take some more days.

Hint: Next contest… is a mirror. :smiley:

Sounds like it’ll be about vanilla dwarfs. ;p

Hmm if they did drawings on the old cdo, what was the next one?

Keep guessing. It’s a lot simpler than it might seem at first glance. :wink:

Besides, @a20t43c has updated his Field Test artwork. See if you can spot the miscreant!
