Deadline Extension for the art Contest?

Tarlanon · 11-19-2004, 09:51 AM

Yep, the deadline came and went....

I will be the 1st to say how the original dates were a bit agressive, but the goal was to try to get something into the next release of DC that the 'Spud was planning for this month. To date I have received 2 submissions...2 great submissions, but alas hardly enough for a contest..

So as long as everyone is still interested, what say we extend the date out a little bit? Maybe to December 10th? Would that give some other folks enough time to submit something? Or should we just call it a wash?

If it is mutually decided that we should extend the deadline, I'll have the web page updated with the new date and a couple of samples from our first 2 submitters just to let the rest of you know what kind of competition you are up against.

Let me know what you all think.

I think the extension is a good idea. I also think that this contest should be advertised over on the FRUA list.
If you're down with this, let me know and I'll post over there.
There are a lot of talented artists working in FRUA and maybe this is what they'll need to give 'em a push to try out DC.

You have my blessing. [img]smile.gif[/img] The updated site will be live by Sunday I think, but other than the dates the rest of the contest rules will be the same.

Thanks!

I just posted over at the FRUA list, the entries should start pouring in any minute.

ummm what exactly are you looking for? hand drawn? digital? what?

Tarlanon · 11-22-2004, 08:46 AM

Whatever medium you feel most comfortable with is acceptable, as long as it meets the format requirments that DC uses for it's icons, it is all good. [img]smile.gif[/img]

HiveTyrant,

That looks pretty good, and is exactly the kind of things we are looking for! Looks like all that one needs is a ready or attack pose, and it would be ready for a submission!

As far as the submissions go, just follow the guidelines on the web-page as to what to include in the submission package and I can formally enter you in the contest.

I am looking forward to your submission(s)! (as I am sure the DC community is as well!!)
