I loved the use of the helmet as a planet!
So clever and I dig clever! [;)]

Seito

Great idea using the dancer's sash to give it sort of a boomerang look.
Mixed with that hair, it also looks a bit like the infinity sign which seems fitting when thinking celestial.
Great job!


and winning first place for 5,000 gold is:

Loved the idea of using that huge chakram as rings!
Also your layering made it easy to see the planets definition and gave it depth!
Congrats on winning!

Linnea and I liked two entries so much, we couldn't decide between them. SO we decided to not award a Third place, but instead to give out TWO second place prizes, winning 3000g each.
SO, in second place, we have
