I also would like to axe for extension of a deadline. For I have seen @Buttercheese stream and I think it would be a shame for it to not be recognized as an entry.
Greetings! Once I saw the competition announcement on Facebook I decided to participate. Recently I started to draw with pen and ink and I try to ink everyday. This is my first drawing competition. I created this Bhaalspawn poster yesterday. Hope you'll like it.
I will post it today on my Instagram @imaginesolo (after posting it here)
Oh boy. It was a tough choice first picking a game out of all the enhanced favorites, then narrowing it down to a character to do a portrait on. Annah came a close second, buuut I tend to be forever biased when it comes to Dynaheir. Especially when I think about her approximately four and a half seconds away from tossing a spell at Edwin's face.
Love all the entries I've seen! ...or to better put it-
"Gorion would be proud of your actions"!
So I got very excited when I found out about custom character portraits but never got to use one! So for my entry I decided to paint my favorite NPC, Jaheira!

"You are amusing, in a 'what the hell is wrong with you' kind of way."

I think she's a riot
In BG 1 she had brown hair, in BG 2 she had blonde hair, but to me, she needed to have red hair (:
Here's 2 dropbox links to all the files you need to use the portrait (crosses fingers) Hope I did all the file naming correctly!
While hacking away monsters, solving quests or pondering philosophical dilemmas we often miss to appreciate the work of the artists that have made the backgrounds and all the characters come to life. Going from map to map of Baldur’s Gate 2 and tracing the lines that compose them is something that I would recommend to any fan. Truly, a game has a great influence on you if you can hear the Waukeen's Promenade music by just looking at its map.
Guess I have to put my culinary skills to the test.

Hello! I finally finished my entry for this contest - magnificent Firkraag watching over his domain:
It's actually my third illustration featuring dragons from Baldur's Gate II. The other two - Thaxll'ssillyia and Adalon have already been published before so I can't submit them to the contest. But to get the full dragon experience you can check them on my DeviantArt page.
@deltago I swear I planned to do something, but I have been terribly busy with RL work, translation projects and a demanding husband. I will do a Bhaal's cake. Eventually
Huzzah, I made it in time! I had to cut some corners on the cleaning and had to skip the colours and proper shading, but I hope you guys will still enjoy it.

I guess I'll just need to improvise.

Yowzaa! That's the best portrait of Dynaheir (my waifu) I've ever seen.
I'm still working on my main entry but I'm worried I won't finish in time, and it says you can enter multiple times so like.
Here's a drawing of Xan I did a couple days ago. I like how it turned out so I figured why not submit it?

Thanks again to @JuliusBorisov for inviting me

Awesome work so far - I think we are all inspired

Planescape: Torment - "Gehenna"
Everyone's work are amazing!
So I thought I might try my luck and I drew something from Icewind Dale game
Coming out of my comfort zone a lot, since the tehcniques I used differ from what I usually do. But I think I learned a lot.
I hope this tribute will be to your liking.
