Creative Genius - November 2006
18 Dec, 2006
A picture paints a thousand words - so 50 should make a novel, right?
We’re pleased to announce that the winner of the Creative Genius competition for November is Blackdove, for both proposing and completing the ’Artist Challenge‘ as an alternative to National Novel Writing Month for those who prefer to draw things than write about them.
Speaking of NaNoWriMo 2006, the combination of City of Heroes-inspired novels and the great response to Blackdove’s challenge made this one of the toughest months ever to pick a Creative Genius. On the writing side, FloatingFatMan’s The Diary came within a whisker of winning, while Blackdove faced stiff competition in the Artist Challenge from Swissy. A special mention must also go to _Max_, for being crazy enough to attempt both a novel and the Challenge. In fact, pretty much everyone nominated for November’s award is well worth checking out, so take a look.
In the end, though, as Sean Connery once said, there can be only one. So congratulations to Blackdove, who is now the proud owner of a ‘Creative Genius’ title on the official message boards and 60 days of free game time!
The Creative Genius competition is a monthly contest held on the Creative board. For more details, see the The Creative Board and Creative Genius thread on the official message boards. The Nominations for December’s Creative Genius will be opened on the Creative board at the start of the new year, so there’s plenty of time to post your submissions!
In the meantime, here are a few more of Blackdove’s pictures…
These are only a handful of the 50 (yes, 50!) pictures that Blackdove drew for the Artist Challenge - check out the original thread for links to all of them.
