My wife and I are donating 4 pieces of art to the event, Melones will decide the winner. But I will be doing 2 full figure pieces, and sketching another 2 which my wife will color in her vector art style, like this... I'll be choosing which 2 to color, and which she does based on the difficulty of the toon, or she may just overrule me, ya know?!

Anyway for those not in the know, examples of my work are in my signature... Information on the event is in my signature, and if you can't donate, you could always add some pink to your toon for the week as suggested in Melones thread.

Hope you guys can come out, I will be making an alt for the Freedom and Protector Servers (already have them for Virtue and Champion) so I hope to see you there...

EDIT: The winners will only be from the Freedom server, as this is where the event will be held on July 7th, 6pm PST. (California Time).

Melones will be choosing winners based on the events at the event, ie costume contest, etc... The winners she chooses can contact me at baquitania@gmail.com, and we'll talk about the details you'll have to send me in order for me to start your artwork.

These will only be for single figures, with simple backgrounds... but hey they're free! Good luck to everyone! See you Saturday!

That is absolutely wonderful of you and your wife. My mother died from breast cancer. She found a lump and was too afraid to go to the doctor (she was 49 and her mother had died from it) It is so important for people to check themselves regularly and to get checked by a professional. Most people also often think that it can't happen to them. "I dont' have a family history they think." I read an article that said 3 out of 4 people that have breast cancer had no family history.

My wife had a double masectomy about 6-7 years ago, and my mother soon afterward.

Both are in full remission... I do miss my wife's boobs though. She had nice ones.

So yeah, this is one of those things that truly deserves our attention and our support.

I'm on Virtue right now... exhorting folks to tweak their costumes.

First two winners for art are Power Sarge and Cypher D from the Freedom Server, the event is still going on, look for King Blaze the event holder who will be doing another CC contest for influence, and I believe another one for art... goodluck to the other two winners.
