Worthy runners-up were Grace Kelly by Hadi Karimi, Magni, King of the Ironforge by Michael Robson, Horizon Quad X by Marco Splash, and Tracer by Thiago Valentim.
Winning entry - Beast Wirt | Over The Garden Wall

Thanks everyone for the love and support I got with this piece! It's an awesome feeling seeing my work being selected this month, considering all the amazing art that is submitted by this awesome community! The second I finished watching Over The Garden Walls, I immediately wanted to try and recreate Wirt in a more realistic and dark setting, it's such a strong and inspiring show.
