Edit : did not know the 3d artist's name earlier , this is the image i used to squish down to 250-ish pixels , paint over slightly and then add the shoulders and robe etc. then upscale by 400% with hard edges. Added a little idle animation to make the Gif with a bit of lightening sparks from his eyes , lol .
Sounds like my entry should be disqualified for using that artists image ! I'd say i should have thought it through , didnt realise that i should have painted it from scratch. Anyway , had fun creating this as well !
