Anyone want to volunteer for judging?

Uhh...first I think your dates are a bit wonky.

Deadline for entries is April 4th, 2015 at 11:59 PM Pacific Time (PT)

Second....shit, I totally would have been down for this.

Don't suppose you could open it for another month?

Of course, I can! 

I dunno what was up with me and those dates, must of been half a sleep!

I extended the time for everyone too for additional participants.

[Sindra]

I think I can make this happen then. =)

Okay, this is totally unfinished and unrefined and I kind of cheated and skimped on things like the rocks and the castle shading. This month was busier than I thought, so take this as a 90% finished piece.



In retrospect, I should have put the castle more on a cliff-side....but fuck it.

[darkmanx_429]

Well you would win by the default...lol

Judging by the lack of entries, I don't think I am going to be the one to continue this contest any longer unless there is some more interest and actual participation.

Sindra, if you want to pick the contest for next month and make a thread that would work! Winner's get to pick and make the next contest!

I was thinking about entering but I don't think I have the time to make anything close to finished.

Well technically, Sindra didn't finish either. I would rather participants start a project and submit a unfinished work than nothing at all. You can always go back and finish it after each contest.
