The character is on the right side beside the red light dragging a sword the character is scaled at 7’ tall I didn’t look to see how big the blade was. 
Your description makes my mind fly away into uncharted territory. Who built this thing and why, is it safe? I love it.
Holy crap! That gave me some shivers. I think you should highlight that character a little more, maybe place a gentle backlight on it to make its shape stand out.
I think I only used a back light once, it was in a blenderguru contest " another planet " some time ago.
I used back lighting with spot lamps to keep the light from over spilling onto everything else that’s what I would have to do and find the angle for the light that fits the scene

Pure entry. Cycles 32 samples. Trying out D-NOISE add on, works better than the built-in denoiser for this case (cleaner image).

Oh i didnt mean to change the brightness of the image… I meant increase the lighting of the scene only a bit… and yeah your image is cool and intriguing

That is very similar to what i was going to do, however as it turns out, I have absolutely no more time before the challenge is closed. Cannot even submit anything, either because of time.
Lol, ya I doubled the lighting in the scene and add 4 lights around the character then added a gamma node in the compositor so a could adjust the saturation of the image I was about to go for a sin City look on the second render but changed my mind.
surely there are no rules against similar entries.

Its a horrible day now I just deleted every one of my scenes and models when I was trying to clean my computer 
I’m trying system restore to see if it will bring back my files if it works it will be 5 days back before the WC
That sounds bad. I hope you’ll be able to recover your files.
If you haven’t started restoring your system: There are a few ways of recovering data in Blender:

E.g. The auto saved files from the temporary directory have saved me one or two thousand times. (Both, on Windows and Linux.) Good luck …

Ouch. That sucks.
Haven’t look at blender temp files in a long time since like 2.5? 
Saved all those files an an external hard drive.
Forgot all the save file were being saved in another file location before I started using 2.8 don’t remember where the location I put them at is though going to be fun looking for them. Sigh 
Oh yeah same here didn’t add much detail to my ship, no people etc… And to be very honest I’m kind of a beginner myself. Still got a lot to learn. Also I have a very low end system… A core 2 duo with 4 gb ram, 256mb dedicated Nvidia GPU only which is also incompatible with blender. Hehe… So basically this is the best I could do on the last day.
Yeah @unyxium, you can totally make and submit an image like this. Maybe you can show me another perspective, stuff I could add to the image.
Why are all the awesomest entries non competing?
I might start saving my files on an external hard drive so I don’t do it again it looks like I lost all my blender files going to have to start over from scratch, still have my custom skin node it’s saved here on blender artists
lost all the ones I didn’t save from 2.7-2.8
