I like the way everything is floating in a controlled apocalyptic sort of way.

You never like have your brains sucked out, but maybe it’s just taking over the brain? The metal doors with those handles are also a bad sign. This room may just fill completely up with giant brain juice.” Black & White - Third PlaceSteve Zieser, “Thrazar”<a href="http://curmudgeonsdragons.blogspot.com" target="_blank">Curmudgeons & Dragons</a><img src="http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d164/Calithena/SmallThrazar.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />EO: “Gritty style to match the circumstances. I'd have to say make a quick move and shoot the big fellow on your right under the chin and blow its brains out. Might not work on the undead, unless you have a special bullet. Then good luck with the sword!” Color - Third PlaceStephan Poag, “Cyclops Attack”<a href="http://www.knucklebones.net/" target="_blank">welcome to knucklebones.net</a><img src="http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d164/Calithena/SMall_Cyclops_attackTwistC.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />EO: “It’s sad when a party is completely wiped out, but as we all know it does happen. I can't really see any alternative here; both monsters appear quite fit, every adventurer is badly wounded and the cleric's head is compressed into the thorax.” Black & White - Second PlaceSteve Robertson, “Triple Trouble”<img src="http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d164/Calithena/SmallTripleTroubleOverlandBW.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />EO: “An unholy alliance, the travelers are in for a very rough journey.

The light and shadow overlaying the textures/shapes of the rock is powerful. I'd like to say ‘chin up, you still have 1 charge’...but I think things are well past that.” Black & White – Grand Prize Winner! - First PlaceMikko Torvinen, “Overland”<img src="http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d164/Calithena/smallfemaleattackoverlandBW.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />EO: “When I first saw this picture it was hard to take in all at once. Now I think I understand. The three sub females are very cool. An echo of the vampire's harem, except instead of a vampire here we have a... Shepherds take the dimensional gate sooner rather then later. Pull up your trousers lad. The terrain is wonderful, including the strange solid gas cloud the women are riding.” Color – Grand Prize Winner! - First PlaceMark Allen, “The Adventure Takes a Surprising Twist”<a href="http://portfolio.marjasall.com" target="_blank">Marjasall.com - The Fantastical Art of Mark Allen</a><img src="http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d164/Calithena/small_STIRGE_TwistC.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />EO: “I never thought I would see such a sweeping majestic battle with Stirges, but there it is. Good thing it is a large party as it appears they have to deal with the ‘roots’ as well, plus some tricky things about gravity. Twisty and beautiful.” And there you have it!
