For those who don't recall my first post announcing this contest back in April, I will indeed post a scan of Todd's rendition of Krail in the Art Gallery when he's finished. I'll wait till Krail (the person) receives the original itself so she can see it first.
And A'koss, I don't know what to say man,
both of your characters were in my Top
3 picks, and I made a special mention of them when I sent the list to Todd. I was just as surprised as you when they didn't make the Top 10.
All the characters were awesome, and as many have said,
any of them would have been great to see drawn by Todd. I also was a fan of Talinthas, cool concept and DL all the way baby!
And if there's ever a Jacc Swinn movie call Johnny Depp cause damn, we'd have a winner.
To those who got really excited about the possibility of winning but weren't chosen I want to let you know that Todd, while extremely busy, is accessible for those who want to hire him for private commissions. This contest was a lot of fun, but by no means the end all be all opportunity to get your hands on some great personalized art.
I thought about doing this again next year, possibly with a different artist, but I think I'll leave that open for anyone else who wants to pick up the torch and run with it. A lot of you will still have the same characters near and dear to your heart, and if we go by my tastes to select the top 20/30 we'd get largely the same characters being chosen. And if someone else does this I'd certainly participate!

Someone mentioned Tony D....sounds good to me.
Once again, congratulations to Krail and thanks to all who participated for such enthusiasm and creativity, not to mention all the kind words. They were much appreciated. And with that, the countdown to November begins....
