Any chance of a time limit instead of a submission limit (which I don't know if we've hit or not)?

Maybe, Valentine's Day or thereabouts? I haven't been able to do any painting due to lack of living space, but I'm about to remedy that, and this would be a good warm-up to getting back into the rhythm.

I finally have an avatar ... and it's better than yours.

Thing is, I'm going to see SE next month and my plan is to get the personalized signature for the winner while I'm there, for this contest at least, requiring that it be finished before I leave. My wife's birthday is the first and Valentine's Day is the 14th so I was hoping to fit in my visit between those two events. Could I ask you to bend your efforts to the Imass competition?

excellent. This is the version I prefer but it's your choice which you want to submit for SE to judge so which is it going to be?

edit: good to see your gallery back online - I'll re-add a link to it on the homepage soon-ish

Just wanted in on the whole tusks thing, since noone made them the way I see them. I always pictured them something like this:

considered their scholarly will.
He lowered his head
and with anguish he said,
"But how will we teach them to kill?"

Hello, Corporal Nobbs was so nice to invite me. He saw my Hunter-pic on deviantART and said I should participate Posted Image

. (Thanks, Nobby

)

After reading the tusk-discussion I decited to revise my picture. You can see the original here: http://mistymonstres...unter-150479558

So I made two scetches of how Jaghut could look like in the face and would very much like to hear your opinion:

Number of downloads: 113

So, what do you think looks more 'natural'? We seem to have to trust our feelings there, SE isn't much helpfull with his contradictory information...

@Dutch Master and Sinisdar: Thanks for the warm welcome and the kind words, its much appreciated!

I decided to upload my original picture of the Jaghut-Huntress. Regard it as a preliminary reference sheet.

I know: the tusks. I'll work on it.
I know: the daggers are wrong, I'll work on it.

I plan to make a dynamic pose and a decent background.

Everything else: feel free to make suggestions

Well, I couldn't whine enough about how much I miss my computer.. I hope you can overlook the fact, that the scan doesn't have the usual quality, but nonetheless it's better then nothing

I, for one, really like Urb's version

@Mimo -just as an aside, i know you took artistic liberties and from a practical standpoint it's not realistic, but i still liked what you did with the daggers.

@Abyss:

Thanks!

For further information: I imagined this daggers as throwing knifes. They are blunt, so wearing them like that should be possible.
They don't need a proper handle, because they are thrown anyway

.

Would this work in reality Posted Image

?
No idea

!

@Dolmen: Thank you *flattered* !!! I just can't wait to get started with the pic ^^.

This one, doing it like this, this could be a winner here.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

OOOOOkayyyy! Here it is.

Ah, the pose is not so dynamic and the background is not so decent and apparently I'm out of the nipple-competition and suck at drawing knifes (is there a tut?), but anyways:
