Y nobody mentioned #10?

you underestimate what I can do with a scalpel and an ice-cream scooper... ;)

Inslayer

Number 4, 7 and 11 are the best and you can't change my mind about it.

There's some nice work there. The acid one was a bit disturbing, although reading that section didn't bother me, oddly enough. And the cake one was really cute, even if it was anime-Ilea. Nice map, too! :) I'll go back to mangling stick figures...sigh.

Thank you to all artists for entering! I really like seeing art for a change~

I'm not the only one getting Mizuyru Kei vibes from 11, am I? Please? Anybody?

It would be more impressive if there was not already a map that came out more than a year ago. Upon which this is based heavily.

Rhain

#11 is my favorite

Worldknower

4, 7, 8 and 9 are my favorites. The map one really should be in its own category though. Incredibly diffucult to make a map for a story you arent writing yourself.

Han Pol

2 is pretty well done in my option maybe a bit more blue for the Azarnith path of her auras, would be nice if the artist could say at what point of her journey this picture was made. 12 also looks unusual is that some form of computer modeling and then creating a screenshot? 4 will obviously win:) bu I Look forward to what get's second place and so on.

I think #4 is my favorite. They're all pretty cool, but #2 hurts my eyes if I look at it for too long.

Chilling_Monk

Some pretty good art in there, Number 4 most epic for sure, Number 3 coolest and Number 11 cutest :D

Johann Franz

#11 ;P

Lowe K. Lyesmith

When in doubt, always go for cake.

#7 is amazing

James Fotouhi

9 and 8. Love me some good maps!

Solarlancer

#4 is the best of all for me. #5 is nice in the depiction of monsters #6 has a beautiful art of the trakarov #7 is also beautiful

#4 is bloody incredible, top tier pick for the northern arc cover if you ever had to choose. #3 is very cool as well.

Cristi Nita

Here are my top 5: I. #4 by Anthemis - Ilea on top of Trakky - Perfect artistic rendition. II. #8 by MgcUsr - Ilea fighting Praetorians - Another perfect rendition. III. #5 by Marwan Amine (TroubleFait) - Ilea and her opponets - Pretty much how I originally imagined them IV. #7 by Hanzkindgom - Ilea vs Praetorian - Great cover art for a Vol. 1 or 2. V. #10 by Sichrono - Ilea vs Corrupted - Pretty and accurate rendition of Ilea's Ash Limbs. Specia Mention to #9 by Minato for a very useful map :)

Gotta admit, 3 is pretty epic.

Although I dont understand #2 very well as it seems to me more like something an art critic would love, and I'm about as far away from that as you can get, I do think it deserves a second look at

#4 & #5 are my favorites #3 Should get honorable mentions, because the idea behind it is fucking great.

Viria

#4 and #8

It'sATap

I would say 9 > 8 > 11 in terms of the top three. The map is really good and I like the other two too

Manamaw

i think my favorites are the beach one and the fox one. the rare moments of calm for illea creates an intresting contrast to the violence

Niko

#7 and #8 are my picks

Jake V

#7 and #8 are easily my favourites.

Robert Nolan

If you ever publish as books, I think #11 needs to.be the cover for the whole northern arc.

Chase Clawson

Oh wow, there was a lot of good stuff here! I like 3 and 4, and then after 7 I loved literally all of them xD so much good stuff here. I might come back and give my individual thoughts in a little while too. Though I have to say that 3 gives me such music album vibes I cannot emphasize it enough xD

They are all awesome, but my favorite has gotta be #7, got a new background for my phone :D

Null

#4, #7, #8 are my favorite, especially #4

Johannes Sauer

3, 7, 8,11 are all incredible. Hard to choose.

BaguaBrady

#4 is incredible! #8 and #11 are also great
