So, when the Art Contest thread came out, I was out of town, and then the forums went down, so I was totally unaware that a contest (despite the fact that I was anticipating and looking for the not-yet posted thread before I left) was in existence until the forums were back online. Upon reading the topic, I wasn't too thrilled with the theme, since I don't practice buildings/backgrounds as much as I should, but I told myself I was, no-excuses, entering the next art contest. So I decided to give it my best shot just because.

And...

My entry is almost done! As in, if worse came to worse, I technically could enter it now and you wouldn't be completely lost as to what it was. Of course, all the details I put hours of work into are going to be undiscernable because I'm going to have to take a picture of it instead of scanning it (see last entry for more info on that) but hey, I at least have something to enter!

I'll be entering it tomorrow, because tomorrow is really the last day I can work on it, so I might as well enter it than instead of risking missing the deadline because of the chance that I might be able to work on it again. What I need to do before I enter it is adjust/define the preliminary inking lines, add details to the background, add a few more details on the building, ink those, do a VERY basic shading on the structure, and then take a picture. (No, I'm not coloring it...That would be insane at this point. Eventually I'll color it, but I'm going to need a break from it first)

So, yay! It's just about done! (Or as done as I have time to make it)

I hope more people enter... It's kinda sad that there are only three entries...

Please ignore the grammar mistakes in this entry. I know my sentences are awkward, but it's late, my brain's tired, and I simply can't fix them until I get some sleep. (But I was too excited to go to bed before giving an update on my progress, hence why I even bothered making an entry) So, goodnight all and tally-ho!
