The time has come for the semi-apathetically requested second guild art contest!
This round is a themed contest so make certain you relate your artwork to both Tolkien and the theme in some way, be it obvious or subtle.

Theme:


Blazing spirits as well as fields. Mountains and creatures alike. Fire has a great and varied use throughout Tolkien's works. Find it. Draw it. Give it life. For those of you who find torches to be something impossible to draw, get creative! There are multiple ways of including this theme without actually depicting flames in your artwork.


Rules:


You may enter up to three times but may only win once, so keep that in mind.

Please fill out the following form and either PM it to me or post it in this thread (see second post for more information).

Entrant's name:
Title of piece:
Brief (one sentence is really all that's needed) description of the piece:
Link to entry:


Make sure your entry relates to both Tolkien and the theme of "Fire."

The contest ends Tues, July 17th at 11:59 PM PDT (that's Wed, July 18th at 2:59 AM Eastern) with judging to be carried out within two days of the contest's end.

Prizes:



Prizes given will include (but not be limited to) the following:

Best overall (with relation to both theme and skill): Whip of Fire

Strongest use of theme: Flame Sword OR Elemental Hair

Most creative use of theme: Inner Fire Kimono OR Raptor Fire Horns

Any entry submitted via this thread will be posted here right away, PMed entries will be witheld until the contest's end. All entries will eventually be posted regardless of whether or not you win a prize unless you specifically request not to have your artwork linked save in the case that you win.

~ I am working on something, I just didn't want to use up a post in your thread until I had something, but I thought I'd let you know ~

Well of course I'm doing something, it's not like I have a life. I should have something by tomorrow or the day after, it really depends on my work ethic.

I shouldn't say that... People will expect me to draw or something... I suck at coloring so there's no danger of that for now. *^^*

This is my rendition of Andúril (aka Flame of the West, because it shone with the light of the sun and of the moon).

Special thanks goes to Elnauron for letting me use her Deviant Art account because I'm too lazy to make one for my self.

Well, time's up. Thank you both for entering and I'll finish up the rest of this later today, after I've slept. I can hardly even think right now. >.<

Okay, so I thought about it a bit and considering the turn out, I've decided not to award the "best overall" prize. Which works out fairly well since your entries each fit so nicely into the other two categories.

So for strongest use of theme, Gussu's Glorfindel and the Balrog. Awesome use of marker there, グスグス!

And most creative use of theme, Radagast the Brown's Andúril. Bakshi-Strider!! User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

So if you two would please PM me your prize choices, I'll get those to you soon.

I know I said I'd draw for this one, so I'm sorry about that. Didn't quite get to finish before I left. I'm still in Sydney. Talk to you all later.

Hir Glorfindel
