Long time no see, 606ers, and grats to you CR!
Lol turns out this isn't the best thread to say Hi in as most people just pop in, check to see if anyone has won yet and drop off their next number. (tsk tsk)Quote:Originally Posted by NoMansKitten

<grins and waves> HI EVERYBODY!!!
At least DD was paying attention. What you really should do is start a thread put up a few pieces of art.
Oh yeah and no winner for round two yet.

Okay last one, then I'll give other people a chance to get in on this.
(come on peeps it's for a children's charity)

Boomshakalaka!
Updated the OP with teh B-day Artz.

What the deuce is up with her legs?! Does she have one? Three? One clear one? Agh! Crazy Legs Camille!
it look all crazy, this would be corrected in the coloring phase I'm guessing.

Still not a winner yet but I wanted to say thanks to Fireheart (other than the brief poetic mention) for putting up the numbers list so people know what's already been taken.Quote:Originally Posted by Fireheart
All the world's a stage, and we are the players,
Vying for the prize of Art.
The beauty of pencil on page, or pixels in layers,
It's all that we want in our heart.
But since it's too early me me to choose a number, I'll save the rest of the poetry for later.
Instead, I offer the score, so far:
2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 14, 15, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 30, 31, 33, 36, 37, 38, 40, 41, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 51, 52, 53, 54, 56, 57, 58, 59, 61, 63, 65, 67, 68, 70, 75, 76, 78, 79, 80, 82, 83, 85, 86, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 96, 97, 98
Be Well!
Fireheart
Also some cool and amusing rhymes going on here. Perhaps I should make another round for something like this (already have a 3rd and 4th round in mind) anyone know a good simple rhyming game that can be adapted to a quick CoH contest? (there might already be something like this in the forum games section that I just don't know about.

That's awesome!
I'm not so worried about the extra traffic I just like that it's for a good cause and maybe one of the devs will get a chuckle out of it. I commend you Ransim for all the work you are doing to support a great charity (wish they'd had toys and games for hospitalized children when I was a kid).
/em salute!

Cool pic Zero.
You seem to pop in once a year or so... welcome back?

Not sure there will be an surprise addons this close to launch but one can always hope.
Oh and welcome to the art section of the forums JBear.

Quote:This wordplay is Electric and really a treatOriginally Posted by Electric-Knight
I appreciate the rhymed reply
And... I cannot lie
While I am a bit dismayed
I must say, sir... Well played!
From what could have been a negative interaction
You, instead, left me with a positive reaction!
Nice guess but better luck next time Arete
Of my favorite numbers, 69 takes the lead
Alas, not this time Henri, or should I say Siegfried
55 for MaxPowerz did not yield a win
But in 24 hours to try again, is surely not a sin
Overseas interest in my artz in unreal
Sadly 81 won't cut it, sorry Jophiel
Memphis Bill joined the hunt but failed to score
No luck for Ephemeris who guessed 74
Twice the luck, was it enough? Apparently not this time
With Caemgen's name you'd be insane to even try and make a rhyme
Just for fun Blur chose #1, but that digit carries a lot of heft
An unlucky trend cuz in the end it got her accused of theft
Nugget quoted Nena, heard that song when I was a whelp
Fireheart provided a numbers list, that's sure to be a big help
Ennvee chose 28 and Bubba a one double aught
Silverspine snagged 17, avail him it will not
Prey that's broken took 49
Oath added +1, by accident, or design?
Kai swung and missed, Sensei reigned in her heart
It gave me an idea for a sketch... I better save it for the FArt
See this is what sleep deprived attempts at cleverness gets you.

It's an open contest still in March so jump back in.

Quote:Thanks War-Nugget and no winner yet for round two so it's still wide open, keep trying though as the sooner you put up your guesses the sooner you get another try (if no one got it during that 24 hour cycle), meanwhile I'm planning out round three.Originally Posted by War-Nugget
That's a very nifty looking Dragon! From 'creepin' your works, you sure do have a way with the pen!
I pick .. 13.

Quote:Ooooooh. That's beautiful DD!Originally Posted by DarthDelicious
In the mean time I've learned a lot about colouring drawings!
Have learned new styles and ways.
And today I thought I'd give my own char Darth Delicious a shot at colouring.
The awesome Christopher_Robin drew her for me in an art-trade, and now I've managed to make this a collaboration by colouring it!
Personally, I'm quite pleased with the result. Didn't think I would do this well at a first try.
Though it took me most of the day.
*waves*
DeeDee
This is why I love collabs so much.
@SenseiBlur: Yeah it's an art trade I did with her...
She did this cool drawing of my Xllusya here even though she had injured her thumb.
(probably while Kung-Fu fighting with grizzly bears or something awesome like that)
So I returned the favor with this here...
^clickable^
And now the the trade has
turned into an awesome collab.
P.S. Hey DD do you mind if I add some more to it?
I think I might be able to punch it up a bit.
Yeah tough to miss since my name is totally scrawled, Rock Star style, across her boob.Quote:Originally Posted by DarthDelicious
Hard to miss isn't it! *giggles*
Thanks!
I guess my style is kinda distinct too n' stuffz.

It lives....
Well killer is probably new to the forums and was digging in the history for something to fun to comment on.
Welcome to the art forums Killerkitty.

@Bubba:My goal was never to pressure anyone out, I think my constant promotion of last years (heck this years too) contest and encouragement of getting as many artists involved shows this. That said I do speak out when I see a problem/challenge but it's with working towards a solution in mind (our 3,2,1, vote system I came up with last year for example).
@Henri: There is no reason he (Bubba) cannot still do a piece each month and we can still watch him progress over the course of the competition. That was never in question.
The question as I see it is should someone who is running the contest as the host/judge also be allowed to compete for votes. If no one had a problem with it then fine I didn't object to him participating but if it is going to be a problem then I think it would be better to keep the two roles separate.
I think if the whole system was planned out in December and the numbers were run an maybe even community input/approval was had we could've set it in stone and then not touched anything... a self running system of sorts, in that kind of scenario Bubba could probably compete too without much issue. Given the challenges that have arisen year after year proper planning in advance was key I feel to pull something like that off. That's not the situation we find ourselves in so in the spirit of making the best of what we have how about this as an idea...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are the artists competing for votes.
pic #1
pic #2
pic #3
etc
Everyone needs to choose from among these pieces.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are some other artists not competing for votes but who
want to play along and be challenged by the theme each month.
They would like to hear your feedback too.
link to pic #1
link to pic #2
etc
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
By having a separate but still included section you can still get people looking at and saying what they like about your work. This may even encourage others who want to play along but don't like the competitive aspect or the pressure involved.
What do you guys think?
P.S. @Bubba: While you may see yourself as "bottom of the pack" now that doesn't mean you will stay there in the months to come. A year is a long time and much can be learned. If nothing else remember that last year I got a total of 1 vote for the first month... and the second month I got... well still only 1 vote (that's right I was bottom of the pack) but despite that I went on to win one months highest vote count and furthermore to be one of the two finalists/winners at the end/2nd ending.
Long running contests are about endurance and planning as well as artistic ability. People who are open to con/crit and really push themselves to learn can improve by leaps and bounds.
Don't ever limit your potential based on how you "think" you rank.

Lol dick and fart jokes, they work every time.
...if Kevin Smith is to be believed.

How about...

Alas the number 43 it is not
It was a good guess though, I appreciate the thought
Now 24 hours must you wait there
Else your guess will be considered unfair
Who knows your luck could change and then
A fan you would be once again.

It's that time of year again and the 4th annual City of Heroes Fan Art (FArt for short heh) contest is in full swing. Even better the contest is open to anyone with a valid forum account whether EU or US and so is the vote.
That's right you guys get to help pick the winners by choosing your top three favorites each month. Your 1st place pick gets 3 points, 2nd gets 2 points and 3rd gets 1.
The first months theme was fire and now in February we have Ice and contestants have already submitted their pieces. Look them over, pick your favorites and vote here!
Also if you like art in general you should head on over 606 forums. Take a peek, suggest a theme or discuss your favorite piece and if you're lucky you might even score some free artwork of your favorite character (you should have clearly visible, close-up, well lit screenshots of your character ready to go in case any of the participating artists ask for refs) as there are contests happening all the time.
Cheers!
Christopher
