Mmh, I think I can post mine tomorrow.

It got complicated, but I think it's turning out well. I might colour it though, not sure. Anyway, tomorrow you'll get a sketch of how I think what the Jjaro look like.

The contest is ending in a week, Why not in a couple days or something. I think one week is plenty time.

Side-by-side comparison

I think a gradient looks nice, a bit more feel

Showing off some other colors

Download the full PSD, all the layers are organized and named accordingly [MSmile]
( although I'm afraid resizing the image any larger will cause blur in the pattern, It is the only part I could only get in pixels )

But a month is too long. I think two weeks is plenty time to do a challenge.

Yeah but think about it this way, if it would be every 2 weeks, then people would get sick of the art challenge right away. That's way i'm doing this monthly. Think about it this way, you got 2 weeks to submit art & 2 weeks to "recover" and recharge your "art battery". (and probably the latter 2 weeks for late comers to submit their art)

To apologize for my previous picture:

[attachment=381:jjaro2.jpg]

I used combined terminal picts from infinity together and blurred it all up. It doesnt really have much of a meaning but... its eye candy [MWuh] .

Hmmm... the peom is:


steps that falter fail

time beyond loss
loss behind the screen of life

not held
not forgotten
not lost

unlost found

stay the hard way
dark dreaming carries all




Nameless' submission is a bit too like mine to be a coincidence, but I suggest next time you use the bank gothic/modula tall fonts... they look much more marathony.

In my opinion, the jjaro appear to me as black, white, and green... as those are the colors they communicate in...
