Good luck in the judging!
artvandeley: no, bug looks nice I was thinking of that rock/root in upper left corner, it’s not bad idea, but maybe it could be better in it’s shape, just my stupid thoughts. overally it’s a great piece and I’m sure it will take high rank
gotta go back to my piece =), all the best to you.

Midway upon the journey of our life
I found myself within a forest dark,
For the straightforward pathway had been lost.
Dante - The Divine Comedy
Exodus of the Tree Elves
They knew they would come.
The Prophecy told them about their machines and the wind carried the story about their coming. It was time to leave.
Time to find the place their magician have told them about.
Nobody knew how long their journey will be, nor did anybody know about the direction.
All that was left was the old amulet showing them the way and their desperate hope to find this promised resort, where along with all the other magic peoples they will be save forever.
SideAche, Oracle,Tyranx, thanks a lot!
Thanks Victor. I know this sounds lame, but even if i don´t win anything, the main thing for me in this piece was to finish it. For several reasons.
mant-Raz: Oh, i see. Hadn´t the heart to erase it. Well, at least it´s a forest…lots of stuff in your way and so on.
Steven: blush again

This image really tells a story so well. It’s so sad but yet hopeful. Now I want to know what will become of this little kingdom. A very powerful image with some interesting environmental statements without being cheesy. Great work. Good luck.
