CONTEST - TOP 50

Journal Entry: Tue May 6, 2008, 12:24 AM


Tutorial














TO VIEW ALL ENTRIES : (THERE WERE 308 ENTRIES!!!!! :faint: )





TOP 50 (random order)






I'm sorry for the ones who didn't place, but I must say I would have never been able to pick only 50 without the help of judges… You all have done a wonderful job and I can't even imagine how hard it will be to pick top 10 :cry:

Thank you very much to the judges for their help! :hug: Very much apreciated!


You're all winners to me, since you've created something original for the contest. I hope you've had a lot of fun working on your entry! :hug:

VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE

Note to tubbers/people who would like to use my work for signatures, myspace layouts, avatars, etc....
I DON'T ALLOW THE USE OF MY WORK ANYWHERE, ESPECIALLY UNFINISHED ARTWORKS ! If you still feel that you have a good reason to use it, then ASK ME FIRST and explain your reasons, and I'll see if I can accept or not.

The point is that I am VERY TIRED of ART THEFT. When people see an artwork used somewhere without given credit, they tend to think it can be used anywhere, for free. THIS IS WRONG.

I am working VERY HARD to paint these images, I'm not just clicking a button to make them appear. This is my job and I'm trying to make a living out of it (I have to buy food, to pay for my flat rent and for my studies. It would be great if I were rich and I could work for free and allow everyone to use these artworks for any purpose, but I really can't).
I'm not aiming to sound rude, but way too many people here seem to think that drawing and painting is a hobby and is very easy. It's not! Spending 50hours on an artwork trying to make it look right is not easy! All the pretty cool images you can find on the web are not free for use.

And PLEASE READ DESCRIPTIONS UNDER ARTWORKS! It's kinda annoying to reply to 50 people everyday to copy and paste what I have put in the description -_- You may miss some cool stuff too! I often post details, WIPS and sometimes links to my brush files.
