Trilobite Boy and Gargoyles made it into the Top 10 in a recent SF Group contest on RedBubble, where my art prints & calendar are made. I actually appear to have initially been part of a 3-way tie in the competition.

The competition is still relatively new, from what I can see - there were very few votes for each piece. I'll have to pay more attention to these in the future. Thanks to those RedBubblers who voted!
You can see a whole buncha "making of" posts about the image here. It's also in my latest calendar on sale now.

Send it in to Spectrum. If you can't pass it off as part of a series, get it in the mail tomorrow.
If I can do it, you can.
Thanks Sean!
Money's really tight right now, but I'll see what I can do.
It's been a few years since I last attempted Spectrum - it's such an amazing series and door-opener. I once received an email from Arnie Fenner and he's a great guy.
Hey, I'm not going to argue about finances, but if you can make it work, I'd recommend it. This is such a lively, unique piece, and one that to me suggests a step in a more illustrative direction. It's a style that strikes me as very appropriate for book covers.
It feels like a step in the right/new direction to me too. Less claustrophobic than some of my other stuff.
I can do it!
Thanks again for the encouragement. Off the Spectrum.
