Looks like we're going to have a lot of really good images here this week. Good work and good luck to all that make it to the final. 

I had this idea for the map of a dark land called Psychosis.

Spudonkey: The line work is great and the style is awesome. It looks like a frame from an animation. Love it!

Miasmic: Very interesting and wonderfully moody.

Gix: Gross. But, for some reason I can't take my eyes off it!
