Last week I tasked the Guardians of Kotaku's image manipulation community with finding something else with which to fill Destiny's sadly empty Loot Cave. Then everything went crazy.
I normally pick the winner of each week's contest and the featured entries by going through all of the entries and picking my favorites. This week's contest had so many good entries, I had to cut it off or I'd have been here all night. So if your image isn't highlighted below, that doesn't mean I didn't love it. It's just sometime love ain't enough.
This week's winner is the esteemed sciteach, with his Lord of the Rings-inspired entry. Why did he win out over other similar entries? Check the skills on the bottom left of the screen. Note the elvish writing on the gun. Details!
