I joined a contest recently hosted by XP-Pen, a brand of drawing tablets and pen displays. The contest was Christmas-themed with the main requirement being to include a Christmas tree in your submission, with their fox mascot Fenix being a natural element to incorporate. I managed to score the grand prize: XP-Pen's Artist 22R Pro! Cool!
I ended up having to draw a fair amount of new things, the main new thing being the anthropomorphic fox right in the foreground. Also the composition work and trying to fit in so many elements and colors into one picture... and also doing it all on pretty short notice. In the end, everything worked out and naturally I'm pretty happy with the results.
Anyway, here's the results announcement tweet, below which you can see all the runner-ups and other winners. Congrats to all and thanks to XP-Pen for giving everyone the chance to win some cool stuff!
By the way, XP-Pen has so far been a pretty good and cost-effective alternative to stuff like Wacom Cintiqs, which I think tend to be pretty far outside of people's budgets. They also have a bunch of other traditional drawing tablets, which I haven't tried myself but look really cool either way. Check them out if you're interested!
