brainnsoup Semiremis Shiori Miko brainnsoup Shiori Miko It sounds like a cute idea but I doubt think we could get each religion to agree on a certain monster. sweatdrop Probably not, but my biggest worry is that people won't want to be labeled by their religion. XD I think I'll be able to reach some kind of comprimise on the actual monsters that I'll use.
And thanks everyone for your support! If I get enough support or not too many complaints, then I'll put up order forms. I just want to make sure that people are okay with this idea.I'm trying to think what would be more amusing. Atheists as angels or devils....angels win. xd Atheist should be zombies for all of the time's I've had to listen to them refer to Jesus as 'zombie Jesus' xd @brainnsoup, I wouldn't worry too much about which type you choose to portray each religion as. Everyone who wants to join should understand that it's not meant to be insulting, it's for fun. Well I was origionally thinking either dramatic exagerations of all the stupid misconceptions people have about them. Atheists - Demons (Incubi & Succubi maybe?) Christians - Angels Pagans - Witches(Like the withes in cartoons)
Or have the monsters be ironic. Atheists - Angels Christians - Witches Catholics - Vampires
Oooor since I have a limited understanding of certain religions and again to stay away from insulting people, randomly assign them.
Zombies is a great idea though! I never even thought of that.Count me out for being portryed as a monster (I've never been one for Halloween, and I'd prefer not to start now, if it's all the same to you), though I wouldn't mind being an angel... And I kinda like the idea of Athiests as zombies...

brainnsoup Well whatever I end up doing, we will need a few mortals. I'd prefer not to be mortal either, because that kinda bores me (unless it's something semi intresting, like a mortal from another culture/time period). sweatdrop I can't be a monster, but anything else is up for grabs.

D: Got my wisdom teeth pulled this morning. Soooo many dizzies...
But anyway, I know that not too many people have signed up for this, but I'm going to do it anyway. I'm going to post the submission forms here and on the front page. And I'll also make it more clear in the title that this is avi art.
But here's the format: Username: Religion: Expression/Other:
I'm going to label everyone with their username at the end, so if you'd rather I put your nickname, please indicate that under username. And of course you don't have to post your religion. If you identify with more than one, I'll do my best to show that. And for other, if you want to be interacting with someone else or want a certain expression, I'll do my best to make everyone happy with that as well.
Also I'm keeping submissions up for a few weeks so if you think you're going to change your avatar later in October, don't feel pressured. Just please note that.
And I'm always taking suggestions as to what monster will represent who. Thanks to everyone who signs up and thanks for your support!

This is a fantastic idea biggrin heart I'm joining this totally. Here's my form.
Username: Raticiel Religion: reffering to the belief-o-matic I am a 100% liberal quaker, whatever it means. But I come from catholicism so you can use that. Expression/Other: if you have any doubts on how to draw me (I do avi art too so I know how it is... wink ) - make me a zombie. I love the significant role they play in philosophy of mind these days...

Username: xxEternallyBluexx Religion: Non-Denominational Christian Expression/Other: If it's got to be a monster, I'll be a mortal. But if I could be, I'd love to be an elf, or an angel... As for facial expressions, sorrow works.
And sorry to hear about your wisdom teeth. I hope you feel better.

Username: Shiori Religion: Mainly Atheist, slightly Buddhist. You could put me under either. Expression: Use me as you will. biggrin
I feel your pain, I had four of my teeth removed earlier this year. But it made room so I get to keep my wisdom teeth. I can already feel two of them, it's quite odd.
Try eating mashed potatoes, that's what I lived on for like a month.

With wisdom teeth, it's best to eat ice cream or sherbert. :3 Getting mine out wasn't so bad. I had a little swelling but no pain. Though taken Vicodin did make me vomit twice. And when I got home as I was spitting the blood out, I nearly lost conciousness and hit my head on the mirror 3 times. x.x

Username: rmcdra Religion: Christian Expression/Other: Dragon Caesar (aka Dragonzord) or if you can't then go ahead and monsterfy me, I have leaning to witch (I'm male btw so don't be giving me boobs, though having my own set of knockers would be be pretty hot.... um yeah ignore that) or being a mummy since mummies are often under-rated.

Username: Sanguina Cruenta, Sanguina-chan or alternatives thereof. Religion: Heathen, Pagan Expression/Other: I'm partial to vampires and were-creatures, but am interested in seeing what you come up with so go with whatever. For facial expressions, melancholy is favourite, and I'm also partial to irritated, cheeky and dreamy. Do as you wish!
Fallen angels might be interesting too if you run out of things.
As a side note I do change my avi fairly often. I'll try to keep it in something cute for the month of october and you can take whichever outfit you like.

Okay, I started a list on the first page of everyone I have so far. If I missed you, my bad, please tell me! But I think I got everyone. Thanks again for your support.
And I'm still looking for suggestions. So far I'm thinking of drawing atheists as zombies, demons (probably incubi and succubi) or angels and Christians as witches, demons or vampires. I have no ideas for Islam or Buddhism but Majnooni and Shiori Miko, since you are the first two to bring it up, do you have any preferences? And I don't know much about Islam... But Shiori, for Buddhism I was thinking I might go with something from mythology from Southern Asia/Asia in general. Unless you have a preference or would like to be drawn atheist. If it works, I can always draw you as a combination. That goes for anyone who identifies with more than one belief system. I'll do my best. (:
@Raticiel: It's up to you. If you want to wait and see which monster you like better, that works too. I haven't decided if I'm going to make Catholocism it's own group yet. I was going to origionally, but you're the only one to bring it up so far. XD
@xxEternallyBluexx: I do feel better, thanks for asking! Yeah, yesterday I couldn't have any milk products because it might make me nautious because of the stuff they used to knock me out but today I can have allll the ice cream I want. :3 I got Ben&Jerry's Half Baked and Chunky Monkey. Best. Day. Ever.
@Shiori Miko: Yeah, we got some mashed potatoes too. I've yet to have any though and my mom's going to get some soup from Panera Beard soon <3
@-Tsukiyo-Moon Maiden: I'm thinking witch. The only problem is I'm not sure how to draw "witch" without drawing extra witch hats, cats, brooms etc on people. I was thinking the more Puritan belief of witch and having one or two little demon bites, but them people might get vampire. What I ended up going with is, if I do pick witch, probably different powers. Like have one witch with some kind of aura around her hands. Another looking over her shoulder with a mischevious grin and a jet of fire coming out of her index finger, lighting the bottom of someone's dress on fire. XD And maybe three making a curse around a cauldron as kind of a throw back to Shakespeare. But whatever I choose, I'll make yours provocative. And that sucks about the Vicodin. ): Yeah, it made me really nautious too. All I could think was "Don'tpuke!Don'tpuke!Don'tpuke!" So I stopped taking it. The pain isn't really too bad though. Only when I do something really stupid like play with the stitches or something. XD
@Majnooni: As I said earlier, you're the first person to mention Islam! So if you have a specific mythical creature or classic movie monster in mind, as of now you have no one to comprimise with. And I'll make a note not to make yours provocative. (:
@rmcdra: *makes a note next to your name* NO BOOBS. Got it. :3
@Sanguina Cruenta: You're the first Pagan! Whoo! Fallen Angel sounds cool. And I'll make a note to draw you as one of the first ones when I start drawing then if you don't change your avi too often. (: Of course if you do want to change it, no big deal, just post or pm me. I probably won't start drawing until about the middle of October though so no worries.
Thanks again everone for your support!
