The Sequestered Palace Sumptuous

I don't think it will surprise anyone to hear this whole thing was written and drawn on Thursday and I had to turn it in and go to work Friday morning without my usual editing and revision.

That doesn't surprise me at all. I kind of wondered if that was the case. In fact, I even said I was surprised by this submission. Time constraints explain what I saw here.

As Neil said, if something comes your way I am sure that you will do a bang up job with it! I wouldn't be surprised at all if Paizo gave you a chance with something.

Best of luck to you! You have really done a great job and I think your three earlier rounds were stellar! Sorry other things got in the way of this round. Don't let it get you down. You were a personal favorite of mine, if that means anything :)

Disclaimer:
Ask A RPGSupsersuccubus is posting from the point of view of a CE aligned (very advanced) succubus. She's right out of sympathies at present, and in any case ginormous siege towers tend to leave rather unpleasant wheel marks on the lawn which it takes ages for the grass to grow back in despite of the best efforts of several tanar’ri researchers over the past dozen months into new improved breeds of grass. (Please see the thread of someone who went out in Round 2 or 3 last year if you don't get the siege tower comment; and despite the lack of grass progress, several interesting new forms of triffids were discovered in the past year so all that horticultural research funding money wasn’t completely wasted. The triffids certainly proved useful for disposing of the failed researchers...)
Plus please take as read all the usual disclaimer stuff about gossiping salaciously over a cup of tea and plate of yummy buttered crumpets away from the boards and generally other Chaotic and Evil stuff, kept (barely) in check for now because of Good Manners.
Well, this is the standard congratulations-you-made-the-top-eight-but-not-the-top-four-so-oops-we-won' t-be-seeing-you-again post. I can only assume the judges and many voters were secretly cringing at the thought of the costs involved in building the 'set' for this particular scene, with all that expensive glasswork.
Ah well, the minions have just about finished repairing the damage from the rampage the hamster had here on the replica I had constructed in the Abyss.
Feel free to invite me in to tea if I'm ever passing by the original palace...
