Contest Time XVI Winner - Treasure Hunt
[B]Contest XVI Winner: Tannim -- "Treasure Hunt"[/B]
Chosen by a roll of the die.. it came up 6.
This one gave me a challenge... and I liked it.

[QUOTE=Tannim's suggestion was]
Tannim holding a metal detector horizontally in the air with his hands and shaking his head "no". Your bearcat holding a plastic bowl pile of dirt up to it. A shovel is in a hole in the ground next to them with half of an X(I suppose that would be a V) extending from the hole. A rusty metal item could be just visible in the hole, but that would be complicated to draw.

This took me forever! I know I have said this for a few drawings I have done, but to give you an idea.. I started this on January 1... it is now February 28... A combination of work constantly calling me up for extra shifts and hours, various medical and dental issues, and having the basement flood all seemed to work against me to drive me into a deeper depression that I have been in, in years. Add to the fact that I was using a RIDICULOUSLY large file (because this WAS just B/W originally), and my laptop just chugs ever so hard when doing any large edits... So the 'hour' I set aside to work on this was more like 20 mins... Because while it took 20 seconds to save,I would get distracted by shiny objects and YouTube.
So I decided to colour this for free as an apology... which added to the time, though not much time since I really could not do much on this until recently. I would get a bit of time before or after work, but it takes time to boot up, then it wants to do an update for some reason, Windows or AV, then it chugs to load the file... so the hour I set aside becomes more like 20 mins.. heh heh.
But it is does now! And now I think I will gear up for VancouFur.
---------------------------------------------
I am hoping to have the next contest started soon, since I have some time off... and VancouFur.
