My entry for the Design a cover comp 2008 here.  Even the winner won't be used, but you had to theme the piece as if the issue was about character creation.  There have been some cracking entries, and well worth taking part in as a great exercise.

Not as finished as I'd like - (I could do with a key stroke to write that on every piece description!).  Started in Sketchbook Pro and then taken to PainterX.

Oh this is wicked! I downloaded that template myself but never got around to joining in. Looked like fun. Anyway this is just brilliant. The big old cat is priceless. Your way with characters is fantastic.

I love how the color temp. shifts from red to blue over the whole composition. The shock of the blue grey hair on the right just punctuates this painting perfectly. The way you make the viewer move from left to right with the way its composed, with the nice break of negative space in the middle is really sophisticated composition, IMHO. It lets you move over each face individually, getting to know each one. I wouldn't worry about it looking 'finished'... i think looks great... its rendered up to the level of detail that most would call 'realistic' with enough visible brushwork for us art geeks to peer in and get an eyeful.

Very enjoyable. Best luck in the contest.

That's one amazing piece of artwork you got there :)  Great composition.  The lightning must have been difficult to handle, but you nailed it - very dynamic.

Completely and utterly wonderful, Nick?  I just got my copy of the mag today, and I instantly eyeballed this.  There were lots of excellent entries, there's no doubt, but yours had that something very special.  The Nick Harris "zaniness" factor. Haha!  A well deserved bit of recognition for what I can only describe as your intuitive genius.  Keep up the great work young whippersnapper ; )
