Winning entry, with a score of:
67.1%
Contest goal:

TRADITIONAL DRAWING: : Lighthouses have been around since ancient times. You will see Lighthouses on greeting cards, note-cards, even stamps. Let's see how many Traditional (non-computer) artists can come up with their versions of a lighthouse. You can draw real lighthouses as seen throughout history from reference as long as it's not an exact copy of the source. You can design your own if you wish or even make a futuristic lighthouse. Include the photo of the actual lighthouse (if it's your own image) or a link for the reference source. Mediums may vary, but it has to be traditional (i.e. pencil,pen,acrylic, pastels, oils... etc..)
REMEMBER these contests require that you post at least 2 intermediate steps of your drawing in a step by step guide, so we can see the progress of your work.
Reference photos are allowed (no copyrighted images), but links should be mentioned in your SBS. Include links for all images. NO TRACING ALLOWED!


Status: finished. Check out the winners below!

When I saw this contest I remembered a lighthouse I had seen in Denmark in the late 90's cut off from the sea by sand hills.
Couldn't find any photos but managed to find some video I had shot at the time. I used that as my source.
