I'm Hosting a Contest: EDIT

Tue Jul 28, 2009, 8:24 AM
So first, the News. I have already drawn and inked the first page of the Midnight League. (It's weird. Not 10 panels in and already two people have died.) At this rate, I believe that by the end of my time in New Hampshire, I should have roughly 25 pages done. Give or take a few. This is, of course, so long as SSBD doesn't interfere. That could lessen the output to around 10. But I digress...

I am going to be hosting a small contest for anybody that may be interested. This contest will be directly linked with the Midnight League's story. If you are interested, read the description below, but be warned, there's a small spoiler.

spoiler alert
At one point in the Midnight League, the team has to defeat the Cult of Oblivion in Fernsehturm in Berlin. (For those of you that don't know, that's that weird enormous television tower with the steel disco-ball like thing on top. [link] ) When the league comes to stop the cult, the cult's leader decides to sic a monster on them. This is where you come in.
end spoiler

------------------REQUIREMENTS----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I want you all to do is design the monster. I want you all to go as crazy as you want with it. Here's what I'm looking for:
1) The title of the piece should name the creature. The cult leader will shout it's name several times so this is important.
2) The picture itself should depict the beast. Simple as that.
3) The artist comments should mention all the creature's particulars. Its abilities, how fast it is, things like that.
4) When you finish it, post a comment on my page or send me a note with a link to the picture.
5) If you are a writer and wish to join in, give a DETAILED description of the creature. Note the bold/italic/underline. It has to be super detailed. And no mater how detailed it is, be warned that If you DO win, I still might mess it up when I draw it into the story

So those are the directions. Now there are only three main rules I wish for you to follow:
1) The monster should be approximately between 30 and 60 feet tall. I want it to be conceivably beatable by six or seven men. So no Godzillas, but no pipsqueaks either.
2) No monsters that have already been concieved. If you give me something that looks like a plain old Basilisk or Manticore or something, that will be ignored.
3)Please color the entry. I don't care HOW it's colored but please, no Black and Whites or grayscales.
--------------------END REQUIREMENTS----------------------------------------------------------------------

So that's that. It'll be a while before we get to the Berlin part, so if you win you won't be seeing your Monster in the comic for a while. Anyway, I'm giving you a month for this. August 19th is the due date. So you have plenty of time.

If you wish to enter please tell me so in the comments below and I'll add your name to the roster.

PRIZES
The 1st Prize winner will Have their monster star in the Midnight League in an epic battle and will get one fully colored request from me. (Whatever you want as long as it isn't sexual)

The 2nd Prize Winner wil have their Monster make a small cameo in the Midnight League and will recieve a pencil sketch request from me. (Again, whatever you like as long as it isn't sexual)

The 3rd Prize Winner will have their monster make a small cameo in the Midnight League.

There is also a semi-consolation prize. If you enter and I haven't already watched you then I will immediately do so if you enter.

So everybody, get those creative energies a flowin' and make a monster! Let's go!

EDIT: Well, I definately feel better about the number of entrants I now, have, especially since such epic people as Darkkitsunegirl and WanderingTwilight have joined. And though I am quite grateful to those who have joined, I would still be quite pleased if more people decided to join in. Anyway, if anyone out there knows anybody that might want to do this, please do tell them about it. It would be so much more exciting if I managed to get up to nine or ten entrants.
