Subject: Dakka Painting Challenge: Two Tickets to Paradiso! - winners now announced (7/13)!
Remember, the challenge theme this time centered around the game of Infinity and specifically its most recent rulebook expansion, Campaign: Paradiso.
Paradiso is a planet where the most habitable zone has a predominantly tropical climate. Paradiso is characterized by an exceptionally fertile biosphere, including thousands of plant species, each one of them with an exceptionally fast germination growth and capacity. The planet seems to be covered by a perennial green mantle in which human cities and centers of population attempt to resist the push of the woods. Paradiso's vegetation is voracious; it invades any niche it finds, which demands a constant deforestation effort by all settlements. And when this is not made, such as in urban zones abandoned due to the alien offensive, the planet quickly reclaims the lost territory, overgrowing human-made infrastructure. Whether in open territory or urban terrain, the jungle is always present on Paradiso.
We got an absolutely amazing bevy of beautiful entries, a few of which you can see here:
A big thanks again to our amazing challenge sponsors:

Confirmation of why no-one should listen to Kanluwen when it comes to the IG - he doesn't want the IG, he want's Kan's New Model Army...
