(Elemental Dryad)  I've no idea what a Dryad is, but her facial features are a tad butch.  The rest is fantastic though :2thumbs:

Yeah the face looks like something you find in a car accident

The rst is very nice

Since a dryad is a woodland fairie, perhaps the artist should be showing us a little bush?

A Dryad is a tree nymph in Greek Mythology.

From personal observation, many are seen in pre-Raphaelite & pagan art.

That's an amazing image! I wish I had that kind of skill, I think I'll stick with words. Seeing these incredible productions really makes for some great inspiration. I wonder about the validity of opening a joint type of challenge. Maybe the writers could try thier hand at a story inspired by an image, while the image-masters(?) could come up with a GFX to compliment a story. Is that a lame idea? I'm not sure, but it sounds like fun.

I've tried to get something like that up and running before, but it never seems to take off.  No idea why, but I think it's a great idea in principle :/

Me! Me! Ask me!!  :cheers:

No seriously, that would be fun. Is that going on anywhere in here? I get caught up in other stuff, but I eventually get to it. Occasionally I have to leave the computer..............

Same here - busy, busy, busy... and then some :/ 

I see you found the old thread, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you and Walker cook up between you.  If you ever fancy creating some artwork inspired by any stories on the site, that would be great too.  What I would like to do is make each page of the website a visual feast, combined with a great read.  I haven't got the skills or the time to make stunning images - I'm OK with image manips and working with photos, but anything original, from scratch, is beyond me.

This past summer I had to do comletely photos, my eyes went out on me last spring during animation classes (which I still have to complete, and here I am playing instead), but my favorites are traditionals. I have a site over at DevArt but it is pretty cheesie, I opened it the moment I got the computer hack to show I wasn't completely a radical. All very family type stuff, well most, except for some nudes I put up there and then chose to pull when I had my name recognized on messenger and started getting invites to view nudes of the older teen males. First, not my sty;le--the young boy thing; 2nd, I was a bit too old for that. But, my page views jumped immensely. A few are still out on the web, but not on my site.
