THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING EVERYONE! STAY TUNED FOR THE PIERS ANTHONY XANTH CONTEST!!!!!



Incarnations of Immortality is the name of a seven-book fantasy series by Piers Anthony. The books are each focused upon one of seven supernatural "offices" (Death, Time, Fate, War, Nature, Good and Evil) in a fictional reality and history parallel to ours, with the exception that society has advanced both magic and modern technology. The series covers the adventures and struggles of a group of humans, called "Incarnations", who hold these supernatural positions for a certain time.

For overview of each of the books in this series, check out Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarnations_of_Immortality


Contest Guidelines
Draw any of the Incarnations, including but not limited to, Death, Time, Fate, War, Nature, Good, Evil... some other Incarnations mentioned in the series are Nox (night) and Chaos, as well as some lesser incarnations such as Pestilence and Plague. 
You may make them in society's traditional idea of these characters or give them your own special look, modernize them, etc. For instance, if you wanted to put a sci-fi twist rather than fantasy or mythological feel, that would be acceptable.
You do not have to draw scenes or specific characters dealing with the Piers Anthony series. His books were merely an inspiration for me to start this contest. You certainly do not need to have read any of the books to understand the theme or participate. Though, I certainly recommend them as great books!

Questions or comments, please message [Perplexity]

2005-10-20 [Elwyne]: It's not the bone part that makes it look like it's glowing, it's the white haze that leaks into the black parts like inside the eye sockets, plus the line between them is white instead of slightly darker to reflect the darkness. Does that make any sense? Just trying to help, anyway.

2005-10-20 [Sir. Robert]: It makes perfect sense :P ...I tried darkening the bone and I kinda like it slightly darker than it currently is. I will have to fix the white haze...thats just me being sloppy with quickness

2005-10-21 [Sir. Robert]: Would It be ok If I also entered an edited version of my "death" in the haloween art competition? (I know some people are picky about those things)

2005-10-21 [Aegiss]: I entered different contests with one work and still no one said it's wrong:) I guess it's okay, if not - they'll tell you:)

2005-10-24 [zacula]: Nice work you guys.

2005-10-24 [Mom]: Ok Zac...where's yours? =}

2005-10-26 [Nymphette]: [Nightfall]'s work is excellent

2005-10-26 [cobi]: in my opinion there are better entries here - no offence [Nightfall].

2005-10-27 [Nightfall]: lol thanks. and no offense taken. Every person is entitled to his or her own opinion, and I am by no means the best artist.. anywhere lol

2005-10-27 [Elwyne]: I kinda like Dragonhearted elfgirl's pic, but then I'm a huge anime freak.

2005-10-27 [Thalier]: wel theres my versions.

2005-10-27 [Rennie]: Your version of what? The idea for the contest was to draw one of the aspects of the Incarnations of Immortality from the books. Which one is yours?

2005-10-27 [Thalier]: death.

2005-10-27 [Sir. Robert]: ..not quite what I imagined death as...but everyone can have their own interperetation (I personally would have named that one after Lilah the demoness in the book "For Love of Evil")

2005-10-28 [Dil*]: yeah....vampire is deathy right.. (plans to enter...in the distant future).

2005-10-28 [iippo]: Dare I be so bold and to direct you all the the new the Monthly Month Contest, that surely could do with some good artistes as yourselves..?

2005-10-31 [Mom]: I hate to sound grumpy but does anyone else get tired of seeing the same pictures in every contest. I know I am whinning but....

2005-11-01 [ArchangelGabriel]: I know, it can be boring. I can garentee that mine is 100% new. Still have to colour it....

2005-11-01 [Sir. Robert]: I made mine specifically for this contest...and I only stuck it in the haloween art contest because I was so proud...this really is the first picture i've ever done that looks semi cool...

2005-11-02 [Perplexity]: Just to clear some debates up here in the comment section: You don't have to specifically draw characters from the Piers Anthony books - though you are more than welcome to because his characters are awesome. The Incarnations are open to your own interpretation as well. I guess pictures that have been entered in other contests are okay... but I would have much rather seen art done specifically for this theme. Oh well. =/

2005-11-02 [cobi]: i too think it is tiresome to see the same pics repeat themselves - but alas, i have no time to draw new ones lately
