Good evening Steemian’s and comic enthusiasts! It’s time for Trial by Comics! This week’s theme was “Mecha”, following the previous week’s theme “Kaiju”. The entries, as always, were outstanding. The truth about this contest is, I choose each week’s theme on what I’d like to draw. That’s why I do the theme artwork for each Trial by Comics. Truthfully, mech art is something I’ve always admired, but drawn little of myself. I love that this contest is becoming a cornerstone in the Steemit art community, while giving me a chance to personally grow my illustration in areas I have could use more experience.
Alright, without further adieu, your first place winner for this week’s Trial by Comics “Mecha” theme is @alcy for his entry “The Video Process, Free Giveaway And Complete Tutorial Of "The Artifact" For The TrialbyComics Contest”. This was such a unique entry. I love the digital paint, perspective, and scale of the mecha, portrayed by the person standing next to the machine. The overgrown foliage was a really different take on the genre. Also, @alcy’s background on how he came up with the idea and detailed explanation of his process was more than enough to win the coveted first place award for this week’s Trial by Comics! 25 SBD to you. Congratulations!
There were dozens that missed the top three spots by a razor thin margin. All merit awards get 100% by yours truly. Here are a few of my favorites that made it in to the merit section of this week’s Trial by Comics. Thank you to every one that entered!

@anonimousTrial by Comics new theme is “Lord of the Rings”!
As you’ll note earlier, themes are chosen based on what I want to draw so no apologies because I am a massive LOTR nerd. There is a lot of fun to be had with this theme! Orcs, goblins, dwarf and elvish battles, ents, the Nazgûl. Literally, limited only by your imagination with the entire breath of Tolkien’s Middle-earth world.
Deadline for “Lord of the Rings” is Sunday, November 19th 5:00UTC 12:00a.m. CTS
