Big /grats go out to Richard, who won the /roll in last week's Character Art contest, and picked up a free 8x10 B&W (with a little bit of color, it turns out) sketch from artist Jay "Mig!" Mcleod. Richard sent over screenies of his character Belzivin (on Dragonblight-A), and Jay whipped up a fine, fine drawing of the little gnome (and check that Eye of Flame!). Bigger pictures of the monacled minature mage ingame and insketch can be found by clicking the link below.

And if you didn't win, no worries-- Mig! does this for a living. If you want a customized sketch of the character of your choice, he's ready to get his pens and pencils moving for as low as $15. Contact him via his online gallery if you want a custom keepsake of your time in Azeroth. Thanks to Mig! for helping us out with this, and congrats again to Richard for being really, really lucky.

My post last week about immortalizing your character with custom character art grabbed the attention of one Jay "Mig!" Mcleod. Jay's an artist who often does custom character art on eBay-- he offered me a nice sketch, but then I figured, why keep his talent for myself-- why not give it away to one of you, loyal readers?

So that's exactly what we're going to do. Thanks to my selflessness, one lucky WoW Insider reader is going to be getting hooked up with a free 8x10 pen and ink sketch (valued at $30) from Jay "Mig" Mcleod. That's his art up above, and you can check out his online gallery for more samples of his work (I've put a few more after the jump as well).

Entering is as easy as we could possibly make it. Just reply to this post with a comment sometime between now and 24 hours from now (contest ends 12:01 am Eastern on Wednesday, August 23rd), and we'll randomly choose one of the commenters below to win a custom made 8x10 pen and ink Mig! sketch of the character of your choice. Make sure to enter with a real email that you can check, because that's how we'll be contacting you. And once we contact you, we'll ask you to send a few screenshots of your character to Jay so he can know what to draw. Don't bother entering more than once-- we'll be watching, and anyone who comments more than once will be automatically disqualified. Tomorrow night, we'll randomly Need roll one of the comments (with /roll, of course-- this is WoW Insider), and we'll post the winner's custom character art when Jay's finished making it.

Good luck!

Update: Time's up, comments closed. We'll be emailing the winner, so be sure to check your inboxes, and when we get the art done, we'll post it here for all to see. And don't worry if you didn't win-- I'm sure Mig! would be more than happy to draw your character for you-- for a small fee, of course. Thanks to everyone who entered!
