Bumping this just to keep it on folk's radars. I really hope we see some entries here - there is a custom illustration on the line and I hate for it to go to waste! There's still plenty of time to submit, but don't let it slide by!

Thanks first the bump, I had missed it previously.
It's the one on page 152 with the contest info, not the smaller image on page 142. Correct?

Hey Boneguard! Yes, the one on pg 142 was for the Hollow Moon article. It's the same illustration but we made it bigger on pg 152 specifically for the contest. So use that one (pg 152) when you submit.
Looking forward to seeing all the submissions!

One last bump here. It would be a shame if I had to claim the prize for myself... (it's already paid for so somebody is going to get it
).
Still 10 days left before the contest closes. Plenty of time to get an entry up!

Sounds good.
Maybe I could win a portrait of Braxon, the PC I play in AuldDragon's live-streamed Spelljammer game on Saturdays (espcially if the Mystara fans all hold off entering
).

Only days left...
Don't worry, I'll still make good use of the contest prize if no one else claims it
(and yes, I'll post my entry in that case)

We're past due, but since nobody has submitted yet, perhaps we can slide the due date out to the end of the week. Let's say June 17th.

My attempt at coloring can be viewed here.
I intended to post/draw a woodland behind,
but my png file was too large after the scan,
and as digibeet I don't know how to solve this
and this was too short to do this attempt,
so it stays to the colouring itself.
Just on time

Enjoy

Awesome Robin! As it looks like you're the only participant we will forego the judging process
. I'll contact you directly for your prize.

Great
...although I have a strange doubt
...Was my piece a winning
or losing piece
..as being the only one attending
...this is personally confusing as I am actually the best
and worst
at the same time...
my mind plays tricks with me....aaarch

No need to second guess yourself- that is an excellent coloration job!

I certainly would not have done better, so I think you deserve to win

Both Cthulhudrew and Sturm, thanx.
I always feel insecure about the things I make...though I like to receive compliments and even reasonable critics...there is always that nagging feeling in the back of my head saying;
"it is not good", "Its is not good enough", "nobody wants it", etc...especially on my anything I make/compile myself...like art, maps and stuff.
So your words mean a lot to me
