WOWZ! O.O That's an awful lots of lovely comments for my little entry *blushes*.... I'm really sorry I forget that most of you peeps won't know me...I'll re-introduce myself. I'm Igtica and I've been at PC since the original PC (I joined many years back) I used to be around here alot but i lost my net connection a few years back and now I have it back (finally). I'm so flattered at the comment and prediction of my piece, I really am. I wish you all could have been around to witness my poor early work (actually an awful lot is on my deviantart account if your interested..see siggy). It's really starnge to get so many predictions. I don't think you should all predict too early though. In my days here the best pieces used to appear last minute and they'd be stunning. I adore Freenature's piece. It's spectacular. I can't wait for her to put it up. The other entries here too already prove very competitive for my piece. I wouldn't predict a placing personally, the piece isn't as unique as many of the others which are stunning. I adored looking at the other entries and everyone whos entered so far should be pleased. This is a phenomonal contest and the pieces and what make it so, so every artist who enteres gets a vote of envy at they're beauty and originality from me. I can't wait to see the rest of the entries. I bet it'll knock mine out of the skies of middle earth. btw The pic is of a fell beast. The nazgul ride them (the witch king in particular). I'm just pleased peeps recognise it. it says alot for me.... glad i spent those hours on paintshop pro ^-^ Thankies very much once again, *~Iggy-chan~* |

I know the judges have started their judging and I am not about to loose
on the chance to even enter into this contest, reading this information and making some from words I have heard from my own elders. I have mustered up the insperation to finish exactly 95.2% of the image. Though stairs and elfs where not made. After the contest is threw I will be sure to compleat it in all it's glory. I am going to enter it now but I thought I would give the information out to show how much work I put into it and it's history. Enjoy the Legends and myths of a creature I was for sure in a past life, depicted in this image is possibly what I would look like if I where one.. Enjoy. And btw, I see Cowrie is entering o_O With IG, all I need is FG to enter herself and that would be the end of me XD .. I still hope I have a chance of winning, I've know Cowrie since some of my first oekakis and though untill came to PC we never talked to eachother, I have a feeling I'm in for a pounding if its a finished work cowrie is entering ><! *Braces self* Just playing I wish you the best of luck and can hardly wait for ya Cowrie. I just wish hamtaro freak was here. If he was ... LOL.. XD Dang this would be a contest for the record books ! Though I wonder that already o_o Sooo many enteries O,O..... There is going to be a thumbnail at the end of the stories I've gathered, so prepare yourself for my largest work yet and at the same time one hell of a upload to your hardrive, if you feel you cant handle looking at it in all it's 27MB glory o_O possibly best to just watch the thumbnail and leave the uploading to the judges.. ^^; heh almost crashed my computer making this thing! But it will be a print on deviantart =D So enjoy it while its free ( though it will always be free to you) Soon it will be a $35.69 Glossy copy in a 24X20 inch sheet of cork! =D I wonder how it will fair in the world of Money, but I dont nessasarily sell it for that purpose o_o Just cerious.. Throughout the more then 2,000 years of it's history, the unicorn has remained one of the most elusive of creatures. Although colorful and intriguing tales of the unicorns abound in all corners of the world, the one constant found in all depictions, pictorial or written, is the single horn protruding from the forehead if this magnificent beast.. The first "real" unicorn was probably the Monoclonius, a herbivorous dinosaur that roamed North America about 120 Million years ago. Resembling the rhinoceros, the Monoclonius wields a short stout nasal horn.. Accountes of battles between unicorns and elephants may have been inspired by another real unicorn, the prehistoric mammal known as Elasmotherium, found in Europe, Russia, and Asia in the late Pleistocene period. This enormouse beast was roughly the same size as the elephan, with en impressive horn extending up to six and one-half feet long. While there are seven references to the unicorn in the Old testament, there has always been some debate about the accuracy of the translations and the actual identity of the beast. Although that remains in doupt, it's fierce, indomitable, and mysterious character is consistent throughout. There is some speculation among scholars that the animals mentioned may have been an extinct species of wild ox known as en auroch, or Re'em in Hebrew. Adding to the confusion were Egypt and Mesopotanmian sculptures representing the bull in profile with apparently only one horn. A gift from en Egyptian queen, Alexander the Great's royal steed-known as Bukephalos-was described as having the "ivory horn of a unicorn and the tail od a peacock." When Bukephalos died, alexander built en entire city to honor him. Greek mythology tells of the she-goat named Amathea who nursed Zeus. When the god broke off one of Amathea's hoens- thereby transforming her into a unicorn-a great abundance of food poured forth from it. From this story came the term "horn of plenty" or cornucopia. Julius Caesar reported sighting a unicorn in the vicinity of the Black forest in Germany. He described the animal as similar to both ox and the stag, with a single horn in the center of its forehead which resembled the branch of a tree. A greek physician known as Ctesias recorded the first written accounts of unicorns in the 4th century, B.C Traders had told him of huge wild asses in India-some lager then horses-with deep red heads, white bodies, blue eyes, and a single horn in their foreheads. The horns were white at the base, black in the middle, with the tips blood red. India was spared invasion by the single, selfless act of a unicorn. As Genghis Khan, the ruthless and feared Mongol warrior prepared to wage war, a lone unicorn apeared and bowed before him three times. The great warlord took it as a warning against the expedition from the spirit of his dead father, turned his army around and departed. The southern indian unicorn, known variously as the eale of yale, was even more unusual then conventional versions of the creature. A single horn protruded from the forehead and continued sprouting from the back of its head. This strange horn allowed the animal to protect itself from attack from either the front or back. According to Indian folklore, the eal was held captive to serve as a talisman for wading off evil spirits. The wildest of all the unicorns had a stag's head, a horses body, elephant feet and a single black horn about three feet long. Known as Monoceros, which means " one-horned," this beast was so fierce it could not be captured alive. the Persian unicorn- known as a shadhahvar- appears a peaceful, gentle creature. So thought the victims of this cruel beast who, by funneling the wind through its hollow horn, created hauntingly beautiful melodies to lure helpless animals out of their hiding places. The moment they ventured close, they would be slain by the evil shadhahvar, of whom it was said: "When we think we have tamed it, it escapes; when we are ready to worchip it, it turns into the devil." The Orongo was an animal sacred to the Mongols and Tengutans. There where reported to have been whole herds of these antelope, but the singular Orongo or "one horn" was a rare occurance-about 1 in 2,000. according to legend, its single ringed horn could foretell future events, and its blood had medicinal properties. Known for its keen sense of justice, Kirin is the name of this ancient Japanese unicorn with a lion's face,deer's body, and dragon scales, who protects the innocent and punishes the guilty. The unicorn know as a ki-lin has had a rich history in chinese folklore, where stories portray it as a kind, solitary creature found in deep forests and among quiet mountains, eating no living thing, and not even treading on a blade of grass. The sighting of ki-lin was interpreted as a good omen signifying that a long period of peace was imminent. A credulous medieval Europe ambraced the idea of the unicorn, and codified the qualities that have remained the most familiar to us in modern times. It was at this juncture in its history that the animal became a sacred and wondrous creature: a pure white steed with a flowing mane, an ox tail, an a single spiralling horn, associated with such positive attributes as nobility, strength, purity, innocence, freedome, beauty, and magic. A conception of the unicorn as a holy creature of God, endowed with the magical abilities to bring life out of death and purify water, gained currency from bestiaries of the moddle Ages. in some legends it was told that the unicon would make the sign of the cross over poisonous water with its single horn- called the alicorn by some. (this beasts is whom I drew my creature from.) According to some folk tales, the unicorn of the Middle Ages symbolized the season of spring, and was thought to possess the ability to renew life,heal sickness, and guard against evil. Just as the unicorn was a symbol of spring, the ferosious lion came to symbolize the summer. Each and every year the unicorn (spring) and lion (summer) battled for supremacy, and each and every year the gentle unicorn yielded to summer's fury. The unicorn horn was highly prized by the rich and powerful because if its ascendancy over poison and evil. It was considered so caluable in fact that some wealthy landowners would mortgage or sell part of their astate to obtain one. taking advantage of th gullibility of the rich, hunters often produced tusks from the narwhal- an arctic whale with a long spiral tusk, sometimes known as the sea unicorn. This was a far easier task then producing the horn from an elusive and well-hidden unicorn like the one shown in my entery. In some countries the legend sprang up that hunters attracted unicorns by using reluctant young virgins as bait. Scenting sich a maiden in the forest, the unicorn would seek her out, allow itself to be petted, and fall asleep in her lap. Whereupon the hunters would spring upon the unsusoecting beast and cature it for their king.. Rumors of unicorn, also called Souanamma, extended even into the Americas. Duringa voyage in 1564, Sir John hawkins wrote in his journal that adventurers acquired and brought back pieces of the Souanamma's horn abtained fron natives in Florida. In 1575, Andre Thevet recorded a description of a unicorn-like sea animal known as Campchurch ( in the original French, he refferred to it as "Camphur" ) in his book, universal Consmography ( La Cosmographie Universelle). The creature had been found near the straits of Malacca in an area that is now part of Malaysia. It wasn't untill the 15th century in Europe that the unicorn was used as a heraldic symbol, dovetailing with its newfound status as a sacred animal. The Almaricornan intereting combination of a winged seahorse and a unicorn-appeared in the coat of arms belonging to Knights of the Realm. Known as the "unicorn of the sea" the narwal or Monodon Monoceros in an arctic whale whose horn is actually a very large tooth composed of ivory. The hunting of narwals for this presious substance has made them en endagered species.. Found in the evening sky between Orion and hydra, Monocerose is the constellation named in honor of the unicorn. Its first apearance was on a Dutch theologain's celestial globe in the early seventeenth century, and several years later came into general use on a German mathematician's star charts with the name "Unicornu". Monoceros boasts two blue-giant stars that are fifty-five times the size of the sun. These are the two most massive stars yet discovered, and together are known as Plaskett's star. The great Indian rhinoceros with its single black horn was likely the inspiration for many unicorn tales. Sadly, this endagered species is still being slaughtered for its horn. unless conservation efforts succeed on its behalf, the rhinoceros may join the unicorn and exist only in legend.. |
o_o I don't want to worry you or anything, y'know. I'm just saying that we start judging around two or three days away from the final day, we don't mean that they have to be in by then, it's just that we start to judge then to make it easier to start the next contest ^ ^;;
Sorry about all the confusion and all... |
Strider's right ^_^ By all means don't rush an entry - we want them to be the best of your calibre! :) As long as it's in by the ending date they'll all be judged to equal standard. ^_^ This is looking to be a really exciting contest - better start making those winning banners!
|
heh. May I do the honors of doing next months entry winner banners? I have ideas. ^^
|
Cripes FreeNature! You really have got to believe in yourself! Your work is spectacular. I almost want to withdraw my entry because of the pressure it puts you under. but I know in my heart you'll do better than me no matter how badly or well either of us do. It's inspurational the commitment you have for your piece. I feel lucky i had the time to do mine in my own time. don't ruin it in rushing (as if you ever could). It is one hell of a contest. Lets make sure we all enjoy it ^-^ make the most of it. I kinda wish orange*berry was here...if you really want competition! :p man i miss her. I hope that everyone who enters really enjoys this and enjoys the pieces being produced. I feel so happy to have ben able to enter after all this time. I hope in a way i don't stand a chance, I'm just happy to be back and have the chance to compete against such great artists.

For the entries so far: Swizzler: Aww! It's adorable! Though, I've never heard of it before, it certainly looks magical. ^-^ A nice contrast to the usual dragon/griffon/unicron thing. Not that those are bad, they've just been drawn so much. DragonHeart: I love that pic! X_X So beautiful... I just wanna reach out and pet the cute dragon. ^-^ It's really a lovely picture, and it's certainly worthy of the contest! Blaziken: Hm, I like this one! Really interesting style, it makes me think of stained glass or something. Nice colors too. PokeSTAR: Oh wow! Really nicely done fur and stuff! I really like it. It's very simple and light and yet it has such character in it too. I love the horns as well. Very nice! You guys are so good! This month has definitely got some competition!! And FNA your unicorn is looking awesomer by the second!!! O.O Take your time, I wanna see this thing done the way you want it done! ^___^ |

You get an iggy hug for your effort from me if that countsas an award at all...though i think everyone that entered deserves one *iggy hugs every entrant* they're all stunning...gotta say though i wish i could see the detail more on cowries...i'm guessing its awesome as what i can see is....it's just a wee but dark on my comp...but i bet its my screen resizing it too much so i hope everyone else is enjoying it. The judging draws near..I just wanted to take this oppertunity to congratulate everyone on fantastic entries and wish you all every bit of luck (not that you need it ^-^)
|

|
Well if you want to start the next one on the 1st you have like only 1 more day left to judge and announce the winners o.o;
|
Woot! The contest is almost over. I'm suspecting a win for FNA. That Unicorn looks awesome, and a lot of work.
Comments on everone's art who has entered before now: Stevo-kun: Very pretty. Not very sure lines though. Also a nice try on texture. Chriz: That's me, skipped. Pokedragonfire: A lacking pose but a interesting concept. Shading isn't very consistent with lightsource. Pluss an obsering watermark, it tends to annoy some people. Overlord IX: Zero or none shading, not a great feature. Also very straight lines. JBCBlank: Cute! The minor cellshading is good. A great piture for paint. The lines are a little shaky. kohei: Oekaki like, nice. I love the white hair. Might want to work on perspective. igtica: Ooh, dragon coolness. Texture is good, also it's cool it has no lines. Swizzler121: Fuzzy & Plain. DragonHeart: Love the blue dragon. Defiently a star. Blazikenlvl100: Nice standard dragon. I'm not too fond of the coloring though. ポケSTAR-girl: He's such a cute, tough guy! Great linework & color. Crystal Clair: Good on effort. He tail looks to short and unlifelike to me. Also I can't tell if she is in or out of water. Cowrie: OMG, that is Beautiful! I love the realism! <3 Freenaturearts: Easy to tell you spent a lot of time on it. I bet it it was totally finished that it would be hard to tell you did it on computer! I advise using http://imageshack.us/ instead of taking space on PC's servers. |
Thanks for the comment Ryu, I have gone over the lines to make them look better but I don't think there is enough time to edit my post, I am not sure
|
Well, I'M gonna start judging and pass my results to Forest.
|
Cool ^^. I can't wait XD. Let's see what happens
|

|
I've passed my veridcts onto FG aswell. ^^
|
Yeah, just to wait, can't you just feel the suspense? XD
|
Aw man XD gee ryu that was cute of you =3. I'm hoping though it is unfinished I can still place okay^^;
But man I feel like going crazy on FG Deviant acount right now and asking what or how did she vote XD The feeling of it all calming down from the stunning month is among us o_O; yet I'm starting to get just as crazy for next months contest as I did for this one... My vote goes to thankgiving theme! Cornacpias and fall colors! *_*.. |
Hehe! Glad to see everyone getting so enthusiastic about the results! ^_^ The final results are being collected as I type, so we should have them up soon! Thanks so much to all the entrants for providing us with some wonderful and truly inspired work :D And of course to the judges for returning their scores so promptly!
Here's to another great Artstravaganza next month!! |
Was hard to judge compared to last month...I'm such a lover of mythical creatures XD
Anyways, great entries everyone ^_- Can't wait for the next theam...which we have decided on (as far as I am aware). |
:nods: yes you judges need to choose =3 if we where the ones to choose the site would be rabbid with over a thousand choices XD..
Another thing that will make it hard this month is cause there is 40% more people entering O_O! good luck guys ^^ |
As I thought, I didn't get no place, woo for me ><; XD
Congrats to people who did get places though |
Well, congrads to you all. ^^
|
Dang I was worried the next contest would only be anime humans o_O; But it looks like alot of anime is aloud ^_^ I wanna do a chocobo =D after all befor it was on FF2 is was a creature of anime delight in many Japanies shows =3 however if animal wise anime is not in that area ^^ I will try my best to do a anime of Shaman king.
|
One question. Can we enter video game characters drawn as anime characters, like say Link from Zelda in the style of Pokemon.
|
I would have to say no to that. We mean proper anime character from any anime you wish. No video game characters are aloud sorry, in anime form or not. That will be kept for another theam...sorry to say ^^;;
|
So, let me get this straight..you mean we can draw characters from Animes such as Pokemon, Naruto, Beyblade etc? but do you mean just human characters or anything?, such as Pokemon and beasts from Animes and such XD
|
Anything as long as it is from an Anime ^ ^
|
Ah okay ^^. Thanks alot, I will draw a human, I am better at them XD
|
Oh yay!! Thankyou for the fantastic theme FG-sama! I am glad that I chose to enter this time cause anime characters are my favorite! ^_^ -squeals and huggles her tablet PC- Time to get to work! ^~
|
Question for the peoples... who can give me a site that lets me give the full size of my drawings... becouse I just can't get them to the real size on photobucket... can someone help...
|
|
:nods: ether that or attach them, untill resently I didint have a deviantart acount and I had to attach, and it's even taking me awhile to bust out of that ^^; However Deviant can be a great okace to enter other contests or just check the site out for other great artists like yourself =D. When you make a acount though ^^; I wouldint mind adding you to my friends list =3
|
Note to FNA: Congrads!
Aw, yes. I really don't plan on getting up tomarrow. I rather just draw Ash's Charizard hurling a fireball. ^^ I walked for 2 and a half hours with a bad knee while tricker treating with a boy-friend. And I sit at my computer, after a bath, with a can of Pepsi. Life is bitter sweet, and I love it that way. |
-yawns- just finished my entry z_z I feel so crappy it's unreal, but hey...at least something decent came from this horrible day...I don't really care if I win, I am just glad to vent...
|
I saw the new theme and was like 'Hell yes'!!!! I've been improving my anime drawings for years! I hope to enter the tokyopop rising stars of manga next year here in the uk. I've wanted something for so long to push me to my limits to see how good I can really create anime, but nothings really appealed to me. I have tons of past pics, but I'm going to work so hard to create a new pic for this. I don't care what happens, but thankies PC for giving me this incentive!

YAY! XD I have started my chocobo and Cloud in all their cutnessity =3 er... That wasint a word XD. Anyway good luck this month everyone ^^ I see two of you have already entered and two more are planed =D This is awesome!
Come to think of it I will try for shaman king as well ^^ it's november 1'st I have 30days and this time I'm not ganna make it super huge like my dragons . Just a little less realistic since it is ment to be anime o.o. |
Well I have plenty of time to figure out what I could draw for this one, I am not going to post really early this time ^^
|
Let's hope you all have fun. ^^
|
Oh man,the november topic wasant something i enticipated on! I might give this months competition a miss. Still....
|
This month's contest is much more wider than the past 2 months combined :)
I'm gonna enter it this month as well. |
It is wide but at the same time gives abit of change cause you really need to think hard about what you want to do ^^; I'm still kinda confused O_O
|
Okay, this month I am definitely entering! *pouts* Why'd everything in my life have to happen at the end of last month? >.> Yes but I will be entering, for on the 29th is my birthday! And I shall be... 21! *GASP* I can drink! Though... I don't ever really plan on drinking at all. ^^; Drinking is something that I just don't care about.
Anime, eh? I was thinking of doing Pokemon characters, as that's what I can draw the best. Maybe something else though... I was thinking a Misty drawing. Now I just have to figure out what I'm gonna do with her. XD Or maybe someone from Azumanga Daioh. That anime cracks me up! ^___^ |
LA, drinking is something to look forward to! It smoothes over everyone's rough edges! Heh, my gran says that a lot.
I'm gonna try and enter, but my humans suck... Might draw Ein from Cowboy Bebop with Ed's hand, or something... maybe I'll go out on a limb and draw a character from the Ginga Legends? That's an anime...about dogs! Or I'll draw Naruto and Hinata. I used to draw them constantly, so it won't be too hard. |
:glomp: yippie a designated driver XD.
:huggles: I'm only kidding, =3 I myself have FOWED never to drink a single drop in my whole life even if it was just to make me feel happy from fake stuff o_O all drinking does is make you forget the truth and forget your worries so that you'll never face them to end they stay forever and it'll just keep building. When you dont drink it's actualy been shown people are healthier and live more happy and full lives ^^. |
Well I have done the drawing, I just need to scan and colour it now XD. Even if I don't get anything again, it was fun to participate ^^
EDIT: Well I have finished my drawing, really early again @@. But when I get going I can't stop, anyway..should I post it or not? =D XD |
heh, so, L.A's birthday is this month? Awesome. ^^
And I cannot wait to see this months round of entries. ^^ And this will be my last month for judging. I'm going to try and enter the December contest. |
Well, I have posted mine, yet again it was drawn on paper and coloured in Photoshop.

XD, I have been doing it a while now, just for the fact that I can hand draw way better than on the computer, I am pathetic at drawing on a comp T_T XD. But I do like how my drawing came out XD

|
Yeah thanks ^^. Took me nearly 5 hours to do o.o;;. I do take my time, that shading wasn't rushed XD

Well I need to redo the shading on the cape thingy, I think, the shading just doesn't look right to me ><

Wow! Awesome entries so far! Now to officially comment on their greatness. ^^
JBCBlank's entry: Ooh! So cool. There's always gotta be some DBZ in an anime art contest. It just wouldn't be complete without it. ^^ Colors are great, and I like the design of it. Nice pose too. Great work! Kagome's entry: ;_; It makes me feel sad! Though the art is great! I really like the shading and the soft feel it has to it. Good expression too! Awesome job!! sunflorazumarill's entry: Aww, Brock and Erika. They're quite a popular couple aren't they? I like that this one is not computer-colored; it makes it different than the others. It looks like you put a lot of effort into it too. ^^ Nice colors as well. Great job!! Stevo-kun's entry: It's Kai and he's complete with his 'I'm a loner' attitude. Though I haven't watched that much Beyblade, Kai and Max were my favorite characters. What was the girl's name? Gosh... she always annoyed the crap out of me. >.< Anyway, I like the shading in yours too! Really cool!! Anyhoo, there's my comments on teh entries! I wish all of you guys luck! Something tells me this month will get more entries than the last month. We've all got lots of competition!! XD |

Cy has provided some awesome Pokémon images that'll go on the banners for this month's winners! :D I'm really pleased with how the Artstravaganza is running each month - everyone's really dedicated to it, and it couldn't be a success without so much wonderful support! ^_^ Thanks again everyone! *huggles!* |

*nods* Yep, especially with so many entering so soon. I mean, it's not even halfway through the month and we have 4 entries! That's a nice number to begin with, and I should be adding mine this weekend! (No homework to do, hooray! XD)
Everyone's been awesome about the contests! And what I like the best is that no one has made fun of anyone's entry; it's all been very supportive and professional. Everyone should get a cookie for that: http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/8268/cookie8cz.jpg Yep, I drew it quickly in MSPaint. ^^; |
Nabs a cookie: YAY! XD four cookies in one day :Jups around like hamtaro: Nummy ^.^!
:glomp LA: Yeah the first week of the contest hasent even ended and alot of people are already here, this is such a open ranged game that anyone can draw anime =D I'm still working on mine but being anime is a sinch (or should be ) cause they dont need to be heavly detailed o_o Which has caused a problem for choco. but I'll get'er going ^^. Good luck everyone ^^ this rocks!. I'm so happy to see this is off the ground, I was still just snooping the forum when the last one whent down and thats one of the many reasons I came to the art forum when I first joined =D this place really needed motivation and this one is working really well ^^ And it's on it's therd contest without a sign of slowing down! The last time it seemed to close soon after the second o.o. We just need to come up with a ton of ideas =D. lol |
ohhhhh YAY! YEAH! ANIME CHARACTER CONTEST! ohhh this should be fun, hmmm who should i draw? aha i know the perfect thing time to get to work,*tis very excited!*
|
Cool, Gilbert is going to join ^^. Talk about competition, I can't wait ^^
|
Ah. a new entrant. ^^ awesome. I also see I was ignored. XD! Eh. <.< No mater.
|
Ah I see, you won't be judging for a while after this contest?. Why? So you can enter? XD
|
Because this is Cy's last month of judging (for now!) would anyone here be interested in becoming a judge for next month's competition? ^_^ It's always good to have these positions filled in advance. :)
Good to see another entrant entering the fray! :D This is building up to be a great contest! |
I might be interested in judging for next month. But I don't know if I want to enter the next one. I'll have to think about it, unless someone else wants to judge.
|
ACKNOWLAGED!!! WOO!
Yeah. Last month for me for a while. I mean, I have been for 3 months straight. Time for change. And yeah, depending on the subject for the puics, I can enter next month. XD |
I dunno if I'd be able to do anything for next month (will probably be somewhat away or otherwise preoccupied around the end of December), but I might be interested for judging some other month, if judges are needed. ^_^
(I'd feel better judging than actually entering again, to be honest. ^^;; ) |
I hope you enter next month Cy! That would be awesome! Plus, it'd be another contestant! ^.^
On a side note; I ish done with my entry and I'm entering it right after I post this. =D Man... I think it was quite a few hours of work added up together. I hardly took my eyes off it for the past few days. ^^; |
Wow, awesome entry LA ^^. I can't wait for more to come, but I have to say, your entry is just wow XD
|
