8 Baller Contest!

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 2, 2008, 5:05 PM
Time for my first contest ever. I'm looking for you incredible artist types to pick up your pencil, wacom pen or weapon of choice and create the coolest image of my City of Heroes character 8 Baller.

I'm looking for a "freezing a moment in time" shot either from his issue 1 - comic or from issue 2 - (text only).

8 Baller reference images, and story pdf's can also be found here.

Judging will be done by myself (heavily), and my kids since they know 8's story well. The medium is up to you guys, I can respect a well done pencil illustration as much as a 3d render.

THE WINNER GETS a free Lego illustration of a character of their choice...most likely one of the winner's characters, but I'm open to other requests (see my gallery and the 8 Baller, Sinder, Statesman picks for samples).

The contest starts today (April 2nd) and all entries are due by May 31st. You can post a link below or email your entry to todd@toddworld.com

This is my first contest so I apologize if I've left anything off.

:iconcontestinfo:

Contest Info was created so that contests all over DA could be found easier.
Sorta like a one-stop solution instead of searching the complicated and crowded news section.

All contests are featured with the nearest deadlines being first for your convenience.

After the deadline is passed, your contest will be removed from the list to make room for all the others-therefore, we MUST be noted with any extensions that you give so that we can continue to feature you until the contest is officially over.

If you are hosting a contest, or know a fellow deviant who is, then please feel free to NOTE me with a link to it so that I can advertise for them here.

To make things less complicated, I recommend posting our icon in your clubs section, and checking in ever so often to see what's new. That way, you're helping us out, as well as having a nice little quick link to us on your page for yourself.

Advertising our icon in your journals would be a great help in making us, and everyone we feature a success.



=SquidWish is also willing to do commissions in exchange for subscription donations for our page!
Please feel free to note her if you're interested!
