Today is the day the world will get to see who has the more powerful magic, Will it be the almighty Genie and his golden lamp full of wishes or will it be the lucky leprachaun and his pot of lucky gold.

Our first contender the almighty genie has been a long time favourite of us all, Many of us have seeked the power of a wish in a time of need and a rare few have been granted their wish 

and

Our second contender the lucky leprachaun is often called upon to bring us luck in the hope of filling our lives with wealth and untold riches

But like all battles there can be only one winner and today's no holds bar battle will ultimately decide who has the greater power and will wishing or luck play a part in the final outcome ? only time can tell.

There is more than pride at stake in today's battle because the winner will not only be crowned the most powerful of all things wishful and lucky and get to take home the prized golden lamp and lucky pot of gold, But they will get a date with the very beautiful and generous tooth fairy also pictured here today, Good luck gentleman and let the battle begin.

description; Time to put the picture together at least 8 hours today from thinking of the idea to completion, recreted a lot of texture maps and poses and positions and lighting

Render time was 24 minutes in Daz 3 studio

Just a short time on postwork, Just added a bit of sharpness and boost to the colours to compensate for the loss of picture quality saving as a jpeg file

Inspiration; The genie was inspired by Bugs bunny and Daffy duck of all things, Just last week I saw a cartoon with those two and they ended up in Aladdins cave after taking a wrong turn, So it is a little bit of the large guard that was also in the cartoon and the genie from the lamp.

The leprachaun is a firey little character just like so many Irishmen after a big day of celebrating with a strong ale or lager or two, Bare fisted they will single handedly take on all comers, big or small, reminds me of the saying "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, But the size of the fight in the dog that is important"

The tooth fairy was a last minute inclusion just to bring a bit of glamour to the battle, Much the same as the ring card ladies do at the big fight nights and she is a very special lady and can only be found in my runtime.

Good luck and best wishes to all entrants who have shown many differant versions of what Genie vs Leprachaun battle means to them.

My favourite genie character of all time would have to be "I dream of genie"
