Hey everyone! Heads up– The Barren Advanced Read Copy Contest ends Friday, June 25th. That’s TODAY!

We’re accepting entries until late tonight, so if you haven’t sent in your submissions, make sure to get them in before then.

Got it? Great.

Today we want to show up a collaboration entry by Jolie and Brechy. They teamed up to bring us something truly awesome, so let’s check it out!

We’re sending you some of our work to your fanart contest! It’s fanart of Leesha, Arlen and Ahman Jardir, our hand-made dice, hora-sachet and Alagai Hora Grimoire. Hope you’ll like it!

This is Frikken Gorgeous. The layout and colors were obviously well thought out, and the more you look, the more awesomeness you notice.

First is those dice! As someone who plays D&D on a regular basis, I am in LOVE with these!! Fingers crossed no one gets a nat 1.

Next up is the hora-bag, which I had no idea was warded like this! It’s amazingly detailed, and so clever to have a portable ward circle to cast dice in.

  The fanart is spectacular. The shading, the textures, the clarity of the wards on Arlen’s skin and Jardir’s crown… wow. Just wow.

Finally, we come to my personal favorite part of this entry– the ward grimoire. When I first saw this, I assumed it was just a lovely cover.

Boy was I wrong!!

This is such an amazing entry, and a frikken strong contender.

We’ve had a bunch of great submissions so far, way more than we have prizes. I’m really glad Cassandra is picking winners this time, because I don’t know if I’d be able to!

You can Pre-Order Barren here.

Hey everyone! Every contest we do, I’m always afraid that there aren’t going to be many entries, and the fans ALWAYS step up to impress. This time is no exception.

This time, for the Barren Advanced Read Copy Contest, we’ve got a bunch of badasses who ward themselves up to fight against the demons.

Sophia sent a double-trouble contest entries with her Renna cosplay and an Inevera portrait:

Here are my two entries for the fanart contest. One is a Renna cosplay and the other is what I call The Inevera Ward. When dama’ting get the Inevera Ward on the dice they tremble! Hope you like it.

Now there’s two powerful ladies I wouldn’t want to mess with.

Yunuyei sent in their terrifyingly gorgeous art of Arlen with demons

This is lovely! You can find more of Yunuyei’s art at their official website.

Mitchell send in his newest ward tattoo:

I’d like to enter my most recent tattoo which is of a cutting ward

Hey everyone! another few entries have come in for the Barren Advanced Read Copy Contest. Today we’ve got one featuring one of my personal all-time faves.

Doreen from Germany sent in this gorgeous rendition of Rojer playing his violin, done in acrylics.

I love the layout of this, with the forest and rojer, all surrounded by a ward circle. Plus all those little musical notes are so lovely– really awesome job!

Hey everyone! The Barren Advanced Read Copy Contest has its first few entries and they are -lovely-.

Let’s check them out!

First off we’ve got this amazing photo collage that’s been expertly manipulated into a rendition of a wind demon sent in by Keith:

I love this! All the different pieces come together to form one terrifying demon.

Next is a fierce portrait of Ragen by K.A. Bren:

I thought Ragen needed some love too, and that it was high time I finally fixed up and colored drawing too 🙂 

What a gorgeous picture. I’m absolutely blown away by the detailing on the hair/clothes and the intensity in those eyes…

These are an amazing start to what is shaping up to be an incredible contest!
