DCUO?

Ugh. No thank you. I'm open to other MMOs, but that one looks like monkey butt stain. Ruin my Harley, will you. :<

lol i gotcha!

Though this isn't for DCUO or else I wouldn't have posted it here. This is for the PeaceKeepers SG which is an SG thats in a lot of games including Coh/Cov/CohGR among others.

You'll notice the symbol being that of CelticBolt

Ok, this is a bit confusing because I did think it was a DCUO thing... And the "About Us" page from the PeaceKeepers website you link a few posts down from this says:

Quote:
Welcome fellow and all potential Peacekeepers. This site is devoted to the heroes who form the DC Universe Online league known as The Peacekeepers.
Also, on you're latest poster... Errr, specific money amounts are usually taboo around here?


I'm all for you getting all the participation you can for your contest, which means spreading the word as far and wide as possible... But, errr... *shrug*

Prices for commissions aren't aloud though for prizes it was always OK before as long as it was a contest.

Also with the PK site says it's a dc online league thats true. So I have no excuse for that though like I mentioned, we are throughout the internet for MMO's with people all ya guys know like Veikira, CelticBolt, me (I hope you didn't forget me ), Gray Huntress, Striking Speedster and many more Coh'ers. We all still play this game and have an SG here so I figured why not let the artists here know so they have a shot...

Point one: Alrighty, I didn't know that

Point two: It's all good by me... Well, depending how many journals and such I see I may get kind of annoyed at the oversaturation :P But I'm not the target audience anyway, unless you're going to award the prize for the crappiest Sharpie art!

I would say we need more details, or else this is going to be confusing and infuriating and people will largely ignore it.

I took a look, and regardless of quality I only have enough time, money and emotional investment for this one hero town.

Now, if the Peacekeepers were truly independent, I'd buy that. Because it'd be free...

We are working on breaking away from all games and doing just that.

As for the contest, look for more details coming soon(tm)

We are going to be making the announcement for this contest in 5 days!

Squeezing sixteen people into a single picture doesn't make for a very good composition, IMO. Even a really talented artist would have a hell of a time making that look good. I guess this is a case of quantity over quality.

Nah it's quality as well. I have seen several compositions where there are more then 16 people in a picture and it turned out great!

But thats why there are two categories and why the prize is set so high for the Grand Prize as it will definitely be a challenge.

Gosh darn it! There's always an Anti-Caemgen rule!

Took out that rule as it seemed a bit excessive. Also dropped the minimum character expectation down. New rules re-posted on the OP.


Roxy On DA...Finally!

Personally I don't mind the Peacekeepers tie in with any superhero game, but I can understand how some might see it as rather 'odd' that a DCUO themed league group is advertising a competition here in these forums.

Kudos if you can pull off the vision of becoming independent of any MMO.

I love the character reference sheets that have been created for the various Peacekeeper heroes. Even if you have no interest in DCUO or this competition it's worth looking at the Peacekeeper site on deviantART for the art alone.

Thanks for the support Comrade!


So just wanted to remind everyone that the contest starts on October 1st.

Please make sure to submit your entries to peacekeepers@live.ca

Lets have some fun!

Looking forward to see what people come up with. I love the Peackeepers and the art your members recieve is outstanding. I just wanted to say that the supergroup name the peacekeepers is what inspired the name of my character and supergroup the Peacemaker/s. I love the promotional piecesfor this contest. Who came up with those?


 

Posted

Hey all.

Hybrid, I made the "emblem buttons" for The Peacekeeper roster, just for standard use wherever (signatures, wikis, etc.). Tremor (Yin here in CoH) decided to put them to use on the teaser posters.

The rules poster, and the promo poster was a collab effort between a bunch of us (TA, Lunar Ray, Slipshod, Tremor to name a few). I put it all together finally in Photoshop, but they went through many versions and rules tweaks.

Thanks for the compliment.

And...

It has begun.

Good luck to everyone! With such a talented bucket of artists taking interest in this community project I'm excited to see what's to come!
