Congrats to Greenbeams.

Good hustle people, good hustle!!

Yay!!!!

Thanks so much for the votes and kind words

I heartely agree with Misj - whatever you've got, get it in there as people might just like it anyway!

I have a question though, if i host the competition , do i have to sit it out or can i still enter and just duck out of the voting part? I only ask because i didn't much like sitting on the fence last time

Congrats to everyone on their new Jackalope!

yeah, it's the curse of winning. I never join when I host, simply because I'd have an unfair advantage (not in the voting, but because I'd have extra time to think about it...I already have ideas for two future blitzes should I ever win).

In former times, with your talent, you would have to illustrate 'Oliver Twist' or 'David Copperfield' for Charles Dickens instead of AGS.

Why only in former times?

I want to see those exact grim tales penciled by Mr. Green right now!!!

I think the host should be able to enter, and also able to get votes. One could argue that the host could abuse the system, but it's a friendly activity, and it's a shame that the host needs to sit by the sidelines.

Personally I also think that the next host could be determined by a coin toss, to spread the hosting around. (the former host could just pick a participant at random).

@loominous: As longtime member crafting fine art , do you have something playable?

Only have prototypes, though with my own engines, so, not really, but I hope to start on something soon.

I've got several ideas for this one but, tbh, they're more sort of story concepts than they are backgrounds. I'm more than willing to let anyone else take the reigns if they'd like? If i don't hear from anyone about it then i'll just post the best idea i have tomorrow.
