Here it is the final round of the 2007 Tournament.
In this round you will have 3 weeks to produce 2 pieces of art.

The goal this round is to produce a character model sheet for a costume redesign and a cover image featuring the character is the new costume.

The character to be redesigned is Tiegre the Warrior Elf from Warmageddon. She is the greatest warrior in the land of Warmageddon and we want to move her away from her previous metal bikini look to a more feminine look. The new design should have a full length skirt and hooded cape with scabbard on her side.

The model sheet need not have as many poses as the attachment, but should include a full front shot and a full back shot as well as a detailed looks at any important accessories.

The cover image should be Tiegre (in new costume) in a bar brawl. Warmageddon is a magazine sized comic book, so the cover art is actually an exact square, so your cover art should be as wide as it is tall.

With the character sheet you may take it as far as you wish (pencils, inks, colors, etc), but with the cover, it should only be pencils.

As I mentioned in my PM to the finalist, should one of the redesigns and/or covers strike my fancy, I will be in touch with the artist to negotiate a fair price for their work.

The deadline for this final round of the tournament is 17 November 2007 at 11:59:59 PM Eastern Standard Time.

I will be posting 2 different threads for this round. One for the redesign and one for the cover art.

If the finalist have nay questions, feel free to ask them in this thread and I will attempt to answer it as soon as possible.

Warmageddon and all its characters are copyright L Jámal Inc.

I apoligize for not being that familiar with your character, but can you offer some insight into her dispostition? Just a couple of things to help about her abilities/ skills as well as any personality traits. Thanks. :carrot:

Tiegre is an unbeaten and mostly retired gladiator. She still quite young (for an elf) and spends her time wandering Warmageddon and righting wrongs. She is most often serious, but no so serious as to have lost her sense of humor.

She is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant and knows her way around with most hand-held weapons. Her weapons of choice are the katana and axe.

You could say that except I already have a character designer who does this type of work. I could have passed it on to him and not waited a month to have it done, but I decided to use it as a end of the tournament that was already extended far beyond it's original ending because I was too busy.

This way I didn't have to come up with something else, the tournament ends, and the artists have the potential to win something beyond just the tournament.
