Now that the deadline (PIcecapades) is over, I can upload this! XD

I had a serious time crunch, (*shakes fist at school,) and didn't have time to work on this at all after doing the sketch until yesterday. I knew I needed LOTS of time to do what I wanted, so... the colouring on Atlas is really subpar. I would say it's lousy on the background too, but I DID a background, and am proud of that fact, so I'm not going to say whats wrong with it. xD (Despite it being the exact same problem all over.)

<s>My image</s> Atlas is somewhat flat becaauuuuse... I didn't use any complimentary colours in the shading. I didn't even shade, I just highlighted, since I'm afraid the judges might have puny weakling screens. /schwarshenugget

If I had this entire weekend to work on it, this would have been much better. I would have played with the colours SO MUCH MORE.

But it was fun anyway. Atlas is one of my favvies, so drawing him was a blast. xD

(Can you imagine walking in the wind with those wings? Atlas is very strong to not be pulled off the track. *_*)

Edit: I won first place with this image. 8D

OH MY GOOD LORD.
That is just WOW.

I'm spazzing right now.
Just because this is probably the most goregous thing i've seen in weeks.

The highlights.
@_@.
The colors.
The friggen' wings might be my favorite part of this.

Though, the hooves (is that how you spell 'hoof' plural?), and the fur above them would be a close second.

The trees in the background. All icy and sexy.
This picture is just totally beautiful.
