Art Contest

Jamie & Ranger: Adventurers!!

We’ve got a gorgeous Zebrawood Hero Vault dice box to give away!

Why not have an art contest to give it away, I say! Well, actually our driver Jamie said that, but either way! Anyhow, the contest is: we want an illustration of Jamie and her beloved doge Ranger on an adventure! The rest is up to you — is it a sci-fi adventure? Fantasy? Historical? Based on a TV show or movie or book? Let your imagination run wild!

To enter, email you submission to [email protected] and use the subject line “Jamie and Ranger Art Contest”! Also include your screen name.

For reference, you can peep Ranger’s Twitter at @SirRangerDanger … lots of photos to be seen! For Jaime, well, uh, she’s driving right now so just look at the stream?
