Ubisoft is opening submissions for an Assassin's Creed artbook. Hnnnnnnngh. Do want to enter. Even though my chances of getting picked are pretty damn slim. But it wouldn't hurt to give it a try, right? I probably wouldn't produce anything ~super amazing~ like those professionals (and my God are those pieces beautiful), but I might be able to make something... not completely horrible.
It's times like these I really hate not having any form of Photoshop. :|
