What are the prizes:

• KRA Champion – selection via the most points achieved in the scavenger hunt. (If more than one participant have top points, the decision will be made by lot.)

• Participation price – the winner, a random participant – independent of his achieved points – selected by lot, will be able to direct the accumulated GBP 91.- to the one (or more) charity he choses from the Mr. Armitage’s Just Giving page.

• Free entry to the Conference of the Richard III Foundation, Inc. – taking place on 13th of October 2012 at the Dixie Grammar School in Market Bosworth with lots of interesting speakers and topics. More details here: Richard III Foundation-page
  (To ascertain, the ticket really goes to someone who can attend the Conference in Market Bosworth, we check this with a question in the quiz-forms. The ticket will only be given to someone who indicates he can attend and the candidate will be chosen by lot.)

Results Day #4 - King Richard Armitage Fan-Art: RIIKKA

The King Richard Armitage Website (KRA) is highlighting the artwork and the artists who contributed to the Fan-Art Event in October.

Today the KRA artist in the spotlight is:

Riikka

To read a wonderful interview with the artist and really see her beautiful work plus a lovely video of Riikka's art and stories by CDoart go to the King Richard Armitage site at the links below:

Riikka's inspiration is the historical King Richard III of England, but her artwork and stories have a definite fantasy element. King Richard rides again after the Battle of Bosworth as a ghost.  


Below are only a few examples of Riikka's work, you can see much more by going to the KRA website.

Riikka was inspired by the historical king, but I can see a resemblance with Richard Armitage as Guy of Gisborne not only physically but in the aura of the character as well.

Maybe Riikka's work, and the work of all the KRA fan artists will inspire the look of a future Richard III series with RA.
