Welcome to Gaia! ::

A WIP is supposed to show where you are in the process of making a piece. If you don't have everyone/thing drawn in, that's fine. But the WIP is supposed to be representative of the final product that's eventually being turned in.
I know that, it's just that my scanner doesn't like to cooperate, so I'd rather like to only have to scan it once, but, if I have to do it more than once, then I'm fine with that!
This Sand3 is concerned that her Misaozilla flash has never been noted on the entries list. This may simply be because it will not go in the photobucket, being Flash, but it has worried me. Also, the link to my third entry, the Head of Misao picture, has been broken since it went up.

Don't worry, mine was never added to the first page either.

So I had one last fling playing with sprites today, and it's come out pretty damned nerdy... The second picture only makes sense in the context of the first, and even then, it doesn't actually make sense without a long convoluted explanation that doesn't actually relate to either picture... And the first one, well, that's only going to make sense for someone who's a nerd for old-school video games. Modern video games? Bah! Can't be assed. Side-scrollers? That's the way to be. So Senior Valo has a request on the list for a picture of him and his black M-2001 tank. Now, I was holding off the nerdiness, I was thinking 'Yeah, let somebody else draw a proper picture of it. It'll be fun.' but it's the last day of the contest and I told myself 'Okay, you can be a nerd now."

So the fact that the world of Gaia takes place in a kingdom of sprites always puts me in mind of the classics. These are definitely more than 8-bit of course, I would call them more like 16-bit sprites, so I've been wanting to play with doing some Gaia/Super Nintendo manips because, well, in my nerdiness, I thought it would be funny. So, the long and the short of it is Super Battle Tank.

... Yeah... probably not as funny as it seemed in my head.

So then, time for another installment of 'You had to be there.' Tank makes me think of Tank-Cat names me think of 'One does not simply TANK-CAT into Mordor!' which originally started out as 'One does not simple ROCK into Mordor!' before it got completely out of hand... So then as I was washing up I got thinking of the rocking into Mordor thing... and naturally decided that I had to do that one too...

So there we go! Some last-minute entries! Now I have a half hour till it's tomorrow and I'm kind of bored and flaky, maybe I'll play some more before I go down to bed... I'll look over the list again and see if I get inspired.

edit: Nevermind, looks like I've run out of time. Busy having deep, philisophical discussions about cartoons instead.

*quick bump and runs*
Those entries are great.
Seriously, I'm quite astounded... I regret that I can't type up much more in my endless fatigue.

"Endless Fatigue" would be a great name for a rock b-zzzzzzzzzzzzz.... User Image
::wants to see things, but is at work and will have to wait until such a time as can access from home. Which is to say, not until, um, hoo boy. Not sure. >_> ::
I don't think I'll be able to enter anymore, seeing as how my birthday is coming up, and I'm not going to be home. I'm sorry, I'd love to enter though, so I'll see what I might be able to do. But if not, good luck voting, you guys have some very good entries!!
Oh, dude, I totally thought the cut-off was August first, because I can't read and all. I still have time to work out my artistic aggression on you guys...
Still some time to enter! razz
*bursts forth from the shadows*

I've been watching the entries lately, and am quite pleased with the artses that have been rolling in! You guys still have until the 9th to submit things, and until the 16th to finish up work-in-progress stuff as long as it's already been submitted. There's still time! Make the most of it! A WINNER COULD BE YOU!
