CONTEST DETAILS...IT BEGINS!
IF YOU POSTED IN THIS THREAD SINCE THE VERY FIRST DAY BEING THE 26TH OF AUGUST 2004 AT ANY ONE POINT UNTIL THE 11TH OF JULY 2005 BEFORE THE CONTEST WAS ANNOUNCED THEN YOU QUALIFY TO ENTER. PM'S AND EMAILS DO NOT COUNT...SORRY.
Community support is something I value deeply. I dont think I could have achieved the results I did without your help so this is my way of saying thank you.
Here's the deal....
I will be posting a bunch of pics of the my Begins Chest Piece, The Begins Cowl, Gauntlets, Collar Clips, Cape, Legs and Boots...belt will be the Rubies one but it rocks, Progress pics of me working and finally some pics of me in costume....finally..
I'll also mix it up by posting other Batman items I've made in the past and am currently working on and those can (and hopefully will) be used too. DKR, Bob Kane, 89 stuff, Panther...custom cowls...
The Guidlines are as follows....
Use any of the pics I post or combinations of pics I post and combine them to make one of the following:
- Movie Teaser Poster/ or an Official Poster. Make something up based on what pics I post...
- Desktop Page Picture
- Splash page
- Just make something cool with the photos I post.....
As long as you use at least one of my pics and manipulate it as you like that will be fine with me. Use different backgrounds, different colors...blurr it...I dont know...whatever it is you can do. Artwork drawn by hand is also cool if you dont want to use the computer, just base it on any of the pics I post.
I'm simply looking for something creative to be done with any and all of the pics I post. If you know how to use the various tools in the computer then put them to good use...Photoshop, Flash...whatever...I dont even know what most of that stuff is anyhow... Make it look cool and show us all that effort went into it and you'll have a darn good shot at the prize...
Contest starts once I put up the pics.
I need to finish the legs but we're pretty much there anyhow so I will need a few more days...but once I post the pics....the contest starts.
I'm thinking of having it go approx 3 weeks. Some people expressed that they'd like to be part of this but will be gone for a bit or leaving soon so I figure once I post the pics you'll have 3 weeks to complete your entry/s. I need a few days...week at the most to finish mine anyhow so we should all be fine with that deadline.
- Enter as often as you like.
- Do not openly post your entry until the deadline. I will see about getting an email addy that can handle all the entrys sent to it then I will post them. I may need someone's help with that if one of you guys has the knowhow for this sort of thing...
Once all the entries are posted you will all get a chance to vote on your favorites...and it would be best if the entries were anonymous. Vote on your favorites....once it's narrowed down to a top 10 (if we have a lot of entries) or top 5 or top 3 (if we dont get many) then I will choose the winner from the finalists.
The winner gets this....Painted and ready to wear or display.
Guys...have fun with this. Make your entries funny, cool...agressive...it doesnt matter to me. Of course I'm personally looking for that 'WOW' Factor but the most important thing is noting the effort. If you're not that talented dont worry....I personally am looking for those who honestly gave this a shot...effort, not just something slapped together in the hopes that no one else entered.
Give it your best and it'll show in the end.
Have fun with it and wait for the pics.....Once they go up IT OFFICIALLY BEGINS!
If you have questions now is the time...
