Fan Art Contest 2005

Well, I, for one, wouldn't complain if the date were to be pushed back.<br><br><br>By the way, would I be correct in assuming that it is acceptable to do any coloring for these on the computer?

[Muninn]

Ok, I suppose pushing the final date a few days wouldn't hurt. It's not like we're struggling with a deadline here. How about 20th February as the finishing date? That gives everyone more than a week to flesh out and complete their drawings. Afterwards I'll post the poll so everyone can vote.<br><br>As for colouring by computer I don't see why not, despite certain people having an advantage. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

[GhostWay]

Just what are you insinuating there, hmm?

[Steve the Pocket]

Yeah, after all, <i>anyone</i> can <a href='http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/' target='_blank'>download The GIMP for Windows</a>!

[Ozymandias]

Well, as my entry is only an hour or two away from completion, I return home to find that my scanner has been packed away for a bit, and replaced by...a <b>MIDI KEYBOARD</b>! I mean, seriously, how am I gonna get my pic on the PC with that?<br><br>It may be a roundabout way of saying it, but if I can't get an entry in, will you give me a little buffer time, maybe to arrange using a friend's, or getting a decent photo of it on a good digital camera?<br><br>Just dropping in to let y'all know in advance,<br><br>~Ozy

[Muninn]

Not long left now...and I decided to change to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I've got a sketch and I'm confident I can get it in by tomorrow. My previous one, just didn't spark enough for me personally. How is everyone else doing?

[Ozymandias]

Finished, I'll try and get the scanner down for a bit

[GhostWay]

Eh, I'm not going to be ab,le to get my entry in. Just too busy, among other things.<br><br>Good luck to everyone else, though.

[Ozymandias]

*PING!*<br><br>Yep. Apologies for the crinkled paper - I underestimated the guage I'd need. The colours look a little washed out in places too, but that's the scanner. I don't believe in doing something in watercolour then screwing around with it in Photoshop.<br><br>I think it turned out well, consideringI haven't touched the paints in nearly a month. I also used my own style for Ozy (nearly used DCS') but I thought that, as in all my other drawings I've been using his for a while now, it was time I tried my hand at my own again.<br><br>Logo in bottom left is subject to change before final close.<br><br><b>EDIT: And the line across the bottom is straight. I know that for certain, I just didn't flatten it out on the scanner in case I damaged it</b><br><br><br><u>The B.F.G. by Roald Dahl</u>

[Holyman83]

Wow Nice job!!

[Muninn]

Ok, finally got it in time. It's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (Ms. Mudd and Locke looked okay until my awful inking made them look strange, I promise). I'm <a href='http://img164.exs.cx/img164/1567/alice2wg.png' target='_blank'>linking to the image</a> because it's a little big (but not too big, don't be scared to click), which is because I have lost all ability to correctly resize the pictures my scanner scans. It's a lousy scanner that has lead a troublesome existance and scans kind of weird.<br><br>However, it's looking to be a dire contest if it's just Ozymandias and me.

[Henohenomoheji]

Lol. "Millie was here".<br><br>*sigh* If my drawing skills were better (and if I could find the book I'm thinking of, where the heck did it get to?), I might have entered this...<br><br>...seriously, folks, Mr. Simpson's age-5 drawing abilities put my current skills to shame <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> Especially that Pac-man one.<br><br>Edit: Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a *little*... but stick figures are pretty much the only thing I can draw (and I have seen from many comments on the board that I'm not alone here <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> ). Stick figures and my avatar.

[GhostWay]

Hm. Even snuck ol' Kilroy in there.<br>Also a bit of simple encryption in there. Nice.

[Holyman83]

Thats good Jacob

[Foxchild]

my entry didn't get to color it, though it's set up to be.
