    CoH Jam October!

    I know quite a few people who celebrate Halloween with tomotoes instead of pumpkins so you wouldn't be violating a thing!

    The yardstick I tend to use with artists who haven't delivered the goods is whether or not there is communication - Do they answer my emails or not.

    I would use a similiar standard at least for a while in the reverse... Do you KNOW they know the art is done? Have they read the email reminding them of expected payment? But if the answer is yes to these two questions, probably a couple three days is sufficient unless they're giving out some semi plausible excuse.
  6. I love this thread! Great to see players recognizing the talents of other players...
  7. As the kids these days say - My bad.

    I believe I somehow missed the fact the entire phrase was underlined and only noticed the one word. Either that or my mind just didn't leap upon the potty humor, which would be suprising considering my mind. So with that in mind, you have my apology for assuming your mocking was aimed at a lack of understanding the word.


    (I still think everyone should read more. Expand their knowledge base. And beat up teachers who don't do their jobs... Err, yell at! I mean yell at teachers, of course!)

    No worries dear, still looking for me brain...
  10. Errr, the OP started this thread almost 2 years ago... So I'm not sure they're still around to pass out tips or take requests
  11. So we're laughing out loud at what? Limited vocabularies?

    Yes, it is not the most common use of the word but really? It's not so archaic a use that I had think about it or look it up. Read more. Expand your knowledge base. Go beat up your teachers for not doing their jobs!(Errr, just kidding on that last one. Yell at them but no beating up.)

    Edit to add: I've still not explored Praetoria but I have noticed on the boards that a couple groups use really unique phraseology and such - Is the "official" language very officious or flowery? Perhaps it was an attempt to tie in to that? *shrug* Just thinking...

    Egads, this ain't becoming an issue, is it? My point was just that if you think something is a violation then you should report it - Posting that it may be one is just going to create friction and issues and may not even get an official ruling anyway....

    Or, if you want to go the non-official route - pm the possible offender and express your concerns. *shrug*

    ANYWAY - Where is the new arts?? Want NOW!!

    What Foxy said - Seek out cosplay tutorials and such, they must be out there.

    But also, a lot will likely have to do with your ability to sew (or learn to) and how creative you get. I suspect there's a decent cosplay niche even on DA, I see bits and pieces there without even looking on occasion.

    Hmm...
    I thought it was just the fact that the account of someone several people have claimed took their money and never delivered the arts of was active again... If there is something more specific, I missed it as well.

    The carving contest was Eddy Swan and Foo if I recall correctly. Foo's account is inactive again and Swanzy is pretty much unseen on the boards these days so I wouldn't hold your breath.

    Still, as others mentioned, carving is welcome here! We'll take fruit carvings, pencil drawings, finger paintings, boobie caligraphy or whatever else you can come up with! Just so long as it's Halloween and CoH related and fit for posting on the boards!

    But... This is NOT a contest. This is really just for fun. No winners. No losers (cept those that don't participate). No voting. No drama. Arts for arts sake, be it serious or silly, awesome or awful

    And I love what we have so far - keep it coming! There is no limit to entries! Mine will be coming... Eventually.
  17. It's my pet name for my belly button. Not sure why it's a game tip.

    Hmm...

    Just because someone takes your money and doesn't deliver the goods it doesn't mean they're not good people...


    Wait.
    What??

    CoH Jam October!

    Alrighty, several have suggested an Art Jam but nobody has yet to throw down the challenge so I guess I will!

    The first CoH Jam theme will be Halloween! Obvious and cliche but why mess with the classics?

    Rules:

    Make art that connects to both City of Heroes and this month's theme (Halloween)

    Anyone and everyone can enter - talent not required, nor is entering every month. Jump in and out as youplease.

    Put in your entry anytime between now and the end of October.

    Art is art, enter drawing, computer generated images, photomanips, sculpture, video, writing, whatever. This is all about having fun and having an excuse to create do whatever works for you is good.

    At the end of October I'll "tag" someone else to pick the theme for the next month from this months entries. It won't be the "winner" but rather just someone whose entry I liked for some reason... Basically I think it best if we rotate "hosts" and this is how I chose how to do so...

    Any suggestions just give a shout, I'm wide open on this... Just been thinking the boards been quiet and needed some more arts so figured i'd see if this idea floats.


    That's all I can think of right now - there's no winners or losers so no need for a lot of rules. Just have it ok to post on the boardsand all is good.
  20. Sorry to hear about the RLSShtuff

    Still, I applaude your decision to postpone. I think more artists should strive to be responsible on turnaround times and just how much work they can take on at one time.

    If you believe the post is in violation I suggest you click on the little "report this post" thingy at the bottom (left?) of the post - it is the proper procedure.

    Personally I see nothing wrong since it's generally showing nipple that decides such things. A silly rule (really, pasties make it clean and tasteful? Outfits painted on so you can see every bump and detail except the actual flesh pass muster?) but it seems to be the rule nonetheless., and I see no nipple shown. (I am looking via my iPhone but *shrug*)

    Frankly I find the piece of art in question to be tasteful and not overly provocative or lewd.

    Spam away, this board has been dead lately anyway! Plus cool arts are always welcome...

    You have some amazing pieces up there! I'm totally going to have to jump to your DA page and figure out who some of those artists are so I can add a watch onto them...

    That is freaking gorgeous! I think that looks arguably more badass than the Wolf spiders in game. I...it...my eyes! Too much awesome!
    *asplodes*

    Sorry?

    Seriously though, glad you like... And I agree! Tyra really did make the Wolf Spider armor her own in this pic, putting an awesome spin on it



    And, more arts!

    First up is a pic from Andantonius (hopefully I spelt that right!) - It was a fan/tribute piece he did of Calvin and Hobbes which really caught my eye - he doesn't usually do superheroes - but I absolutely LOVE what he did with Fenian here...



    Next up is a sketch and a half from Manic-Pixie. These aren't completed yet but who says ya have to wait for the finished work to enjoy it??

    First up, her take on Fenian Wolf in her alternative armor:



    And this last one is a bit of a tease... It's Fenian and....? For now, I'm only sharing the Fenian half of the art!

  24. Nice additions indeed. One thing I'm curious about though:

    It looks to me like the last couple or so Comrad Hero pieces you posted have him looking a bit younger and less "weathered" or "seasoned" than the image that's been built up in my mind of the character. I'm curious if this is intentional, coincidental, or just something wrong with my.mental image of the character? Perhaps it's just me perceiving a difference?

    Whatever though, very nice looking pieces!
