NOTE: THIS CONTEST GOES FOR A WEEK INSTEAD OF TWO DAYS
The Fantasy and Sci Fi genres are full of famous duos: Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, Batman and Robin, Jaxom and Ruth, Drizzt Do'Urden and Guenhwyvar, He Man and Battlecat, Mario and Luigi, Skeeve and Aahz ... stalwart companions who stuck side by side through thick and thin.
In this contest we want you to create a duo of your own. It could be two brave adventurers, or a warrior and his/her steed, or a boy and his giant robot, or a time traveler and his talking monkey, or whatever your imagination can come up with.
You may not use any existing fantasy/sci fi images as sources for this contest, whether from films, paintings or wherever. Your creation must be put together from mundane source photos. Historical photos (either from museums or recreationists) are allowable.
As fantasy art is rarely photographic in nature all images are "to be judged on consistent style not necessarily photorealism", the goal of the contest is to create cool art, not a hoax. As always, have fun, be creative, follow the guidelines please, and be careful to avoid using any cliches. You have an entire month to work on your entries so we're expecting something special!
Thanks, as always, to solipsism for coming up with the Fantasy line of contests.
