Does this include any posted WIP progress shots of a piece made during the event period? For example, I have a piece I am working on but am not sure if it is alright to have posted a preview of the unfinished artwork, but I posted the preview and started the piece after November 16th.

I think if it falls within the contest window, which started 11/16, then it's fine to submit. :)

Happy 13th WoWniversary. LOL

Hey Ornyx?

What happened to the results of the last comp that was posted about on the forum, oh a month or two back?

Are you lot still reviewing the entries?

I didn't submit as I am no artist but I like to admire art. Just wondering if I missed the results on that one?

Cheers. =)

Winners have already been contacted, yep! We're just waiting on a good time to get the winner's blog out, but it should be in the next week or two.

The holiday this week has slowed us down just a tad. :)

Thanks for all the entries guys - we learned a lot with the shorter duration of this contest, and we look forward to more contests in 2018!

We're sorting through the winners now, and hope to have these announced before the holidays.

Are we allowed to post our pieces on our social media before the contest results are announced? Probably a dumb question but just want to double-check

Yep!
