New Contest – Weapons And Warriors!

Posted by Steven Savage on May 11, 2011

This contest runs from May 10st to August 15th, Midnight EST.

(Note the contest runs longer than usual. This is because I want to shift the timing to avoid inconvenience – namely messing with NaNoWriMo time!)

It's time to get armed and creative! This contest focuses on the weapons and the people who love them. Or use them. Or are cursed by a dark and horrible fate to wield them until the end of creation.

You're going to draw a character – and their weapon. To do that, you use one generator from each list below!

Character Generators:

Weapon Generators:

There you go – one warrior, one weapon, portrayed however you want. Catgirls with Cosmochucks? Bishounen with Blunderbusses? Ninjas with . . . well OK they're Ninjas they can use whatever they please.

But of course as always, go farther. Can you come up with a unique way to portray them? Can you give us backstory? Come on, take the results and take it farther!

New Contest: Twilight of the Vampires

Posted by Steven Savage on May 7, 2010

This contest runs from May 7th to 12 Midnight, July 15th EST

Vampires. They keep coming back but does it seem they keep coming back
in the same forms we're all a bit sick of? Aren't we all a bit tired
of:

  • Angsty prettyboys?
  • Ravening monsters that are just cannon fodder?
  • Sparkly emo disco globes?
  • Vicious pseudo-hip killers?

It's enough to make Bela Lugosi cry.

Well forget that. Your goal in this contest is to save the vampires
from themselves by creating new, creative, INTERESTING vampires. Go and
figure out a new kind of vampire, new story, different character,
anything but the same old stereotypes we've all grown tired of.

Now once you have your great Vampire name, I want you to build an
interesting new character around it! Give us as much detail, character,
backstory, anything as long as it's NOT one of the annoying stereotypes
that have turned the undead into the uninteresting!  Then of course draw them – or take a photo of yourself cosplaying – or whatever creates a visual representation!
