Congrats to the winner! :iconsomeconfettiplz:

Oh and it is great idea to have a final poll so if people fail to understand vote-for-only-one-picture rule there is still fair change to find real winner. :D

well now we have the final poll the vote once rule no longer applies, I'm expecting everyone to vote for a dragon in every poll I post from now one. Should be easier. Its like having semi finals then finals, I will still be making the first polls in order of sumbission and then taking the top dragons from each poll for the finalists.

First i'd like to say Congrats to the winner

I have a suggestion:

you should hold two challenges a month one for Digital art and one for Transitional art for all people vote for the digital art and over look the Transitional it's not really fair for the ones that just do Transitional.

No they don't, the joint winners of the first challenge were traditional and mine nearly won May and it was traditional although it did struggle somewhat in the final poll, it wasn't the only traditional finalist though.

Peacock feathers do look fantastic in digital colours though
