Last summer I issued a challenge on my archive site Yerf as a way to get the other artists involved. Little did I know it would last this long or become this involved. It originally started as a contest, which ran until Jan. 1, 1998. I said that anyone until that time would be included in a group picture of artists drawn by me.
The group picture of artists is almost done! There are a few artists I need to add still, so I apologize if you don't see your character here.
Also, you can check out the submissions below. The thumbnails are only a small portion of the final picture (only a close-up of the face). Be sure to let the artists know how great their work really is!

| Comments: | Robert had two ideas, so he sent in two entries. They're both great! I've never pictured Gwendel as an amazon before. |
| Author: | Marie Lu (PI BlueAngel) | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/lumarie/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Thank you, BlueAngel, for such a really sweet picture of Chibi Gwendel. Strawberry, yum! |

| Comments: | I was pleased when I received this rough sketch of Gwendel; then Matt Peters surprised me by sending a color picture as well. |
| Author: | Evan David Ostroski (Algernon) | |
| Comments: | Algernon is a novice with some pretty cute ideas. (PS, yes, he did get his nickname from "Flowers for Algernon", but don't tell him I told you) |
| Author: | Emilie Bosworth (Commando Bunny) | |
| Homepage: | http://nightingale.cjb.net | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/boswemil/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Emilie is nice gal with a nice schetching style. It's amazing what she can do with just a few Prismacolor markers. |
| Author: | Conna Stevenson (Cuanu) | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/stevconn/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Cuanu loves skunks. As well as her animal cartoons, she also does some really interesting fantasy art. |

| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/stolemil/index.htm | |

| Author: | Albert Temple (Gene Catlow) | |

| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/tempalbe/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Gene Catlow is very popular on Yerf. If you want to know why, just take a look at some of his adorable cartoons. |
| Author: | King's Rook (Glumilan) | |
| Comments: | Glumlian stunned me with this picture. I had never seen his artwork before, and wasn't aware he could draw. I'd also never before pictured Gwendel as a superhero. Tres cool. |
| Author: | T. Jordan Peacock (Greywolf) | |
| Comments: | Jordan's my favorite artist, but then, I'm biased. Gwendel masquerades with her husband's character,Greywolf. |
| Author: | Ken Stone (Horse) | |
| Homepage: | http://www.anime.net/~kens/ | |
| Comments: | Kawaii! Ken Stone draws the cutest deer and centaurs. I love what he can do with texture and color. |
| Author: | Jason Furness (Howie/Mark) | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/furnjaso/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Jason has done a good many strips starring his own Howie the cat and Mark the Duck. My personal favorite was the Ichabod the Snail storyline he put on Yerf. Definitely worth a read. |
| Author: | Conrad Wong (Lynx) | |
| Homepage: | http://www.best.com/~lynx/ | |
| Comments: | Lynx does some wonderful realistic-looking animals. He encouraged me not only to use photographs as art references but visit zoos for animals and studying people for real. |
| Author: | Wendy Oster (Mistletoe) | |
| Homepage: | http://www.uwm.edu/~wendyo/ | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/ostewend/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Another Wendy! We first made contact because of our identical first names. Then she drew a great picture of Gwendel juggling! |
| Author: | Po Shan Cheah (Morton) | |
| Homepage: | http://nic.com/~cheah/ | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/cheahpo/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Po Shan Cheah draws a good many gag cartoons and has his own comic strip, Limpidity. Lots of them can be found on Yerf. |
| Author: | Kylen Miles (Alethia) | |
| Homepage: | http://members.tripod.com/~silabub/index.html | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/milekyle/index.htm | |
| Comments: | A very elegant picture of Gwendel with long hair. Kylen does some awesome art! I'm wondering when she's going to get into animation. |

| Homepage: | http://erinv.simplenet.com/ | |

| Comments: | Erin has a really cute character, Razberri. Her website is very cool, so please check it out and tell her I sent you. |
| Author: | Megan Dombrowski (Sebrina) | |
| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/dombmegh/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Seby's a great anime artist. Apparently she likes Gwendel as a princess. Okay, so do I. =^_^= |

| Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/petejohn/index.htm | |
| Comments: | Toast's a novice who's really improving rapidly. I really appreciate this picture and all the creative support he's given me as an artist. |
| Author: | Candy Lewin (Trixi Bigfoot/Haley) | |
| Homepage: | http://www.solfire.com/ | Artwork Archive: | http://www.yerf.com/lewicand/index.htm |
| Comments: | Trixi's art has been described as a cross between WB-style and anime, and I think she does a good job at whatever it may be. |
