Description EDIT*
Although I didn't win 1st, 2nd or 3rd place with this piece, I did win Honorable Mention and a set of buttons. Considering the competition and their great art (there was just over 100 entries!), I think that's pretty neat! [link]

Ahhh, a fine likeness of her majesty! As a dedicated Clan leader in the shadowflight, it pleases me to see such effort put into pleasing our Queen. Excellent work!

I loe how dark and emotional you made this. The heavy, dark colors speak of some deep sorrow, and Shadowbinder's downturned head supports it. I was originally a little disappointed with Shadowbinder's design, but this picture is starting to change my mind. Beautiful work.

Thank you so much!
I love your interpretation of the sorrow and down turned head. When drawing it, I was thinking, Low, slinky and heavy like the weight of shadows may be drawing her down. But that's the cool thing about art. Every viewer has a great take on it.

I've never seen The Shadowbinder lurking about (She's too sneaky), but if I did, I'm sure she'd look like this.

Ohh, I'm glad to hear you like it so well. I've actually got another one in the works to submit a second entry. I couldn't choose between Shadow and Fae. So I choose both!
Here is a WIP [link]

This is amazing! I love how you can just see how that the liquid (idk what that is or what to call it *shot*) is flowing. The pose is awesome too!

I'm not sure what to call it, or what it *is* really. Thanks!

Shadows, of course. The Shadowbinder, for lack of a better term, "oozes" shadows.

He's our lead guitarist. I'm just the bass player, but I think this is pretty awesome, too.
