The January 2010 FArt Battle
Phew... I forgot how close this deadline was, but have finally managed to knock out a quick sketch here: http://happy-dan.deviantart.com/art/...ncer-151368008
I think it meets the requirements, if we can pretend that Ms Liberty does wield Excalibur, and that there really is a Magic Sword category in the fencing.
And I'm a good boy. I've also cross posted to the CoH FArt gallery at DA.
2nd edit: wow, my first edit got stuck in way the wrong spot - proof I should go to sleep & not edit posts on my mobile...
Well, CR's piece uses his actual CoH character... As for myself, I'm glad I tire Jutal in at the last minute! All in all though, I think the intention was kind of clear that characters that fit into CoX should be included and not that they had to be definite CoX ones... To insist on characters that definitely existed would require people to prove they had a character that looked like their art (before they submitted it) or stick to canon characters... Proving you had the char before the art would be bothersome and using just canon chars would be overly restricted.. Edit: Scoots, I actually have more connection in my piece than just Jutal... You are watching PNN (Paragon News Network), the show is call Paragon Today (I think today... Or did I go with tonight?) and Lord Recluse is mentioned in the scroll bar as having Etoille Islands boycott the games Using characters that just fit in seems to follow the spirit of the rule to me where as the lack of a hot chick seemed an oversight or an ignoring of the rule and it's spirit... |
CR not only used what I know to be his CoH character, but a fire imp, which is a great way for a CoX torch to be lit.

I'm totally going to be last...
Working on it now.

Nicely done!
Well, nicely done to everyone, really. This is an interesting contest (and topic), and it's cool to see what people are coming up with Now excuse me, I must get back to my lurking |
so your fine no matter what) slap an Olympic logo and a hot chick in it and get the hell in on this!
Now if Alex, would just respond to my PM notes and emails lol we could build a nice big pool of contestants for this year... mwhahah.
**goes off to pester more people**

=3 just for you

CR, I'm sure you used your infinite coercion skills to get David Nakayama to enter... Right? That's the big suprise, right??? RIGHT????
Wassy. =3 errr, what's that supposed to be? To my way overtired brain it looks like, errrr, a male stick and his chestnuts??? |
I did mention it to him though...
I had to ask about this too... I understood from something Suichiro said that it was cat related
(probably makes sense to those that have cats).
Wassy, as I understand it, uses this cat smile when she is
"feeling especially warm and squishy" about something... ahem.
Clutch I sent you another PM with the answers to all your questions,
if ya need anything else just let me know or ask our FArt Mistress Wassy. Cheers.
I'm liking the latest pieces - good luck to all!!
It is going to be very, very tough to decide which one I like best.

My entry, in the area of graphic design (because I can't draw worth crap)
It hit me in the shower on Monday what I could do for this month's competition. What if...the Rogue Isles got the 2012 olympics instead of London? Once I started with that...the content pretty much wrote itself.
(Click the image to get the full size page on dA...if I link it directly it'll busticate the forums)
Yay! So glad you're flexing your graphic design muscles and joining in!
Great entry... lots of stuff to find and enjoy. And congrats on getting in with less than three hours to go!
I'm a true procrastinator!
Really minor (really really minor) spelling nitpick Frost, you put "Cenues" instead of "Venues" in the low-attendance headline on the right.
Otherwise, that is freaking AWESOME.

What spelling mistake?
some nice looking entries - are we close to the cut off?
Cut off is in just about 2 hours, 20 minutes.
/commando-rolls through the closing contest doors like Indiana Jones
Okay it's not pretty but I didn't know I was going to join in the fun until a moment ago
Bwahaha, great way to beat the clock, Clutch!
Don't forget to get it in the January FArt Competition folder in the dA group!!!
Great entries, Frost & Clutch!

Lots of funny gags and I lol'd at the fine print... Honest Tony's Completely Non Mafia Related Web Design, heh.
hehehe, was hoping somebody would notice the copyright line
Less than an hour to go!
I also reduced the file to a much more manageable 1600x1200 down from 3250x2450.
About 9 hours into it total and 5 separate drawings merged with photoshop into the final composite.
I'll be putting up the WIP's and individual parts into my 40 in 60 thread for those that like looking at the behind the scenes stuff.
One --> Artz Giveaway <-- To Rule Them ALL!
I will settle this. ORANGE FTW! - Ex Libris
