Wow, some really nice offerings. It was really hard to decide. And i could not give my vote to just one person.
My favourites, this time, are : Diamond, Carbus, Max, Lingon. All for very different reasons. I really like the idea behind Max's map...the journey map of some of the greek heroes - cool stuff. Diamond's map just appeals to me very much in its style and overall composition. Same goes for Carbus' map...a really nice style and i love the norse-feel of it...i wish we could see an even higher resolution of it to really be able to see the details (i want to see the mountains and forests in more detail...they look awesome). Lingon's map i like because his hand-drawn style just is different then most of what is posted here. I also like the coloring that is very hell-appropriate
Ok, enough rambling from me. Congrats to all the participants, some awesome talent is shown here!
