Remember, honorable mentions count as half votes, and multiple honorable mentions are allowed. You can vote for somebody even if they were "not in" for any prize.

My vote goes for awalterj's sketches. You ever done any illustrations of any fantasy book characters? Anyway, real good work here.
Honourable mentions to ignisferroque's 3D rendering (Does that airship serve as a submersible as well?) and Dessimu's Uncle Iroh.

More honorable mentions from me:
I think the word "Stamnia" is bit modified here. However I like it! Gives a thought of a rep sheet for prisoner. I think it's because of colors.

Nice! T'is here is a very honorable mention. I enjoyed the tune. Well done!

Amazing! I especially like the face of woman in top right corner. She looks like a pirate! Very dissatisfied pirate!

Voting for awalterj's portraits. Wish i could draw like that! :D

And honorable mention for FearfulSymmetry's scarf !

Thanks ;) No not really, although that would have been fun too. Actually i wanted to put a lot of airship wrecks in the water - just one left basically, but i thought it kinda looked too crowded.

18 and a half votes in all, eh? I guess we ain't gonna get much more than that at this point. I'll tally up everything presently.

The people have spoken! The winners, as chosen by the members of GOG are:
awalterj, in first place!
KasperHviid, in second place!
FearfulSymmetry, in third place!
Congratulations! Prizes will be distributed to you via PM. Since nobody ever mentioned what games they wanted, I have changed the games offered somewhat. I think you will find these choices to be significantly more pleasing.
I will announce my picks in my next post.

Zeogold's Picks
First place:
Dessimu and his drawing of Uncle Iroh. I'm honestly surprised this didn't get more votes. That's an amazing piece of work, especially for a freehand drawing. I love how the entire thing seems to flow. Simple and serene. Simply marvelous.

Second place:
Klumpen0815 and his dancing tune. I'll admit, I'm a sucker for traditional music. For some reason, it reminds me of a tune I'd once heard as a kid that I'd long since forgotten about. Plus, wheelfiddles are awesome! I'm still amazed by how complicated the things even look. Nicely done!

Third place:
misteryo and his story intro. I like the description you use and the words which mysteriously allude to...something. That was quite a gutsy move, posting something unfinished like that. It sounds like it could be the start of a neat story, with a deep back-
...oh, to heck with it. I'll get to the point:
FINISH IT, DAGNABBIT! I WANT MORE!

Also, an honorable mention for grimwerk, whose adorable little drawings I was greatly impressed with, but he was not in for any prize and thus ineligible for me to pick. Similarly for the masterful rendering work of ignisferroque.

I also would like to tell mikopotato and Dessimu:
I'm still waitin' on them mammoths! You'd better post 'em in the next competition, otherwise I'm going to hold one JUST for mammoth-drawing, y'hear?!

Thank you all for making this such a fun competition and for turning in such amazing art! I enjoyed all of it. I look forward to the next Infinite Wonders of Creation and hope you all will participate in that one as well!

Amazing!! I said it once, I shall say it again - Infinite Wonders of Creation are amazing! I had one tiny reason why I started drawing uncle Iroh in the first place (I needed a self-made drawing to lighten up the room), but this GA increased the motivation. And I enjoyed picking up pencil again. So thanks for all the effort, Zeogold - you are awesome!

Also it's nice you like uncle Iroh so much (if you have not yet watched, you should take a look at Avatar: The Last Airbender series; I would count them as modern day soon-to-be classics, like Tom and Jerry or similar ones). However my drawing was a recreation and others have made original art. I strongly believe that they deserve a lot more.

As per mammoths... You shall see them yet!

Thanks very much for the giveaway! I loved seeing all the entries, there's a lot of creativity here. :)

^ Definitely this!

Again, many thanks to Zeogold and to Klumpen for this wonderful idea! I only hope in future for it to get bigger and even more fantastic. As per winning, I would choose:
- The Detail: Episode 1
- Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet
- Sandbox Universe

Again - amazing idea for amazing artists!

So much fun!

I'm so glad that awalterj won for his sketches - such nice work!

And, yay!, I won, too, for my mysterious paragraph.

Thanks, Zeo! I have chosen Dreaming Sarah as my prize.

Cheers!

First off, I'd like to thank zeogold for hosting the 6th round of this wonderful giveaway and to everyone who contributed some of their creative works. Congratulations to KasperHvid & FearfulSymmetry, I hope you find something you like among the super many prizes.

A big thank you for your kind votes @ Klumpen0815, ignisferroque, FearfulSymmetry, KasperHviid, ShadowPatriarch and mikopotato

And thank you to everyone who voted for anyone - showing in this way that you care.

I'm a bit at a loss as to how to proceed because I can't find anything I want to play on the lists even though they are quite impressive and extensive. I participated primarily because I already procrastinated on Klumpen's Mark I - V rounds so I felt obliged to contribute this time instead of being lazy!
I'll forfeit my prize since I haven't yet played any games at all this year so it would be nonsensical if I redeem any games while I'm in a no-gaming phase that might not end anytime soon (the last non-gaming phase lasted an entire decade, most probably won't be even remotely that extreme this time but either way I don't want to redeem any games right now and would rather see the codes in the sweaty hands of an active gamer.

Thank you ShadowPatriarch, I haven't done any fantasy illustrations in a very long time. I used to draw exclusively from imagination in my kid's style but once I grew a bit older I discovered fantasy artists who worked in realistic styles and wanted to draw like that. For the past 12-13 years, I've been drawing & painting from life for the most part - initially just in order to learn and train foundations, as a means to an end. At some point, I'll eventually return to my original passion which is drawing from imagination, making fantasy art stuff. One could say that I got a little bit sidetracked and made the means to an end an end in itself. Because there is no level cap on foundations and drawing things from the real world can be surprisingly addictive. It is an endless endeavor in itself because satisfaction is ever elusive - since it's a skill that can be objectively rated and compared, someone else is always 10 times better at it which means you can never slack off, ever.

Ah well, as long as one is drawing and painting getting sidetracked is not a bad thing and it has lead me to meet a variety of characters and travel to quite a number of countries that I otherwise wouldn't have visited with the sole intent of making paintings on location. Some of the things I've painted no longer exist such as the ruins of Palmyra in Syria - tragically lost to history forever but they will live on as little watercolor paintings I've made - and haven't even shown anyone yet despite it being 7 years ago...

Thanks for your appreciation, I just want to say that drawing in a representational way is an entirely learnable skill. There is no one way to learn that works for everybody and some learn it faster than others but not a single person gets around loads of seriously grueling grind. Whether one is self taught or formally trained, the grind is the same. I've studied every instructional drawing book I could possibly find, watched a ton of videos, took many classes but there is no shortcut around the grind. Those with high stamina and constitution and who enjoy the process learn faster, those who are procrastinators like me and are too focused on results learn more slowly and more painfully. My first attempts were completely laughable as in objectively horrid. My current attempts are still laughable compared to the attempts of those more advanced, and those people feel the exact same about yet more advanced people. One can't -not- compare, it's an entirely human thing to do but comparison should result in motivation rather than desperation. The latter happens due to ego when one wants to be where one simply isn't, without paying the dues. Happens to me (and pretty much everyone) every now and then. Drawing is cruel, but fair. I constantly need to remind myself that it's supposed to be fun first, and fun foremost.
