Comic Tournament: Sign Up Here.

The Comic Tournament will begin on the 17th of August with a strict deadline.

Rules for the Tournament when it begins can be read here

You may enter your created character by posting an image of it along with a brief description or backstory. Feel free to make this description as humorous or informative as you'd like - this would help others to get a better idea of your character when they employ it in their comics.

Here is an example of a typical comic character:

Here is an example of a typical character you could enter in the competition. (I had to draw it on paint as my Photoshop is on my other computer).

Presenting the Undead Warrior, Sir Slaughter!

example-nerd.png


That's right, the feared Sir Slaughter is not only a level 80 Undead Warrior on his World of Warcraft account, but he has the mean attitude to match!

Watch out for his
cosplay, kids!:lol:

I would like all work to be original - no entering your favourite cartoon or anime character into the tournament. (Although lookalikes may be considered if they are approved by myself)

Ensure that your character isn't too complex either - remember you are supposed to draw your character over and over, make it as painless as possible with a simple design.

Let the entry stage begin.^_^






The current entered characters are (I've added links to make it easier):

Round 1

  • RSN Vs. Xeon

A thug warrior from south Harlem. He was raised on the streets as a thief. With his skills from early on, he was found by the Federal Organization of Ninjas (FON). Then he began his training and has been ridding his streets of trash and scum. He specializes in Judo, Karate, and the use of his nunchucks.

Heh nice, you could practice using thinner lines or make it a little more detailed though. (Right now, it's just a stickman with hair, a red thing round his face and 'nunchucks')

Great to see you're the first entry though, and I like your story! ^_^

Haha, now that's awesome. I'm surprised by the perfect amount of random humour here - a homeless man gene spliced with an especially large fish who has been given robotic limbs, genius!:lol:

Re: Comic Tournament: Sign Up Here.

Here he is!

PirateSteve.jpg
Steve the Gay Pirate!
Steve "The Gay Pirate" was once a noble and rebellious Pirate who sailed the Seven sea's.. He soon got bored of Robbing the rich and poor, killing people and sinking boats, So he decided to go back home to Utah, When he returned he found that everyone was wearing bright colours and had bright houses, They all had turned gay.. Steve couldn't fight them off any longer and was dragged into their new lifestyle, now Steve The Gay Pirate is sent on a mission to turn every country gay for world domination!

(No offence to Utah-rians.)

His name is Perverse he goes around with assorted women's panties on his head. His mouth is never ending and he stores many random things in it for special occasions.

Haha, awesome! I always thought this was a great idea since I saw it in the other thread. :thumbsup:

You can edit it as many times as you like! You can even completely switch your character, as long as it's all done before the deadline. ^_^

Is he just a head shaped like a ball? I like the idea and story, but the design doesnt really add up - you've got photoshop too right? Try sketching using that. It feels more difficult at first but eventually once you become good enough it'll be a breeze. ;)

I'm going to say now that I'm terribly out of practice myself, so a new entry may not be seen within the next few days.^_^

Ah, Tsuyu's dream.

Aaaaand:

OllieandLeah.jpg

Yeah, I got no artistic ability.

Cue Overly Long Description
Ludwig van Ollie is a recent graduate of a high school in California, Maryland. He is close friends with Leah, the ever-drunken Interconnected Triangle Gremlin, who has the Powe of Dubious Utility known as "making Ollie look crazed," since only he can see her. Ollie is a fairly intelligent young man, but being close friends with a mischievious gremlin is usually not conducive to good grades, and he ended up only barely graduating high school.
Feeling guilty for keeping him out of college, Leah contacted one of her many nephews, the computer-savvy Billy Joe-Bob. In a night of drunken hacking, BJ-Bob (at Leah's orders) got Ollie into the University of Maryland and started signing him up for classes. Ollie was very excited to hear this, but it probably would have worked out better if BJ-Bob hadn't decided he would make a good soldier, and put him in the computers as an already-contracted ROTC cadet.
c/PFC Ollie's life is hard. He has to get up early and go do PT, then struggle through a day over-filled with classes, compliments of BJ-Bob's lack of understanding of human foibles, like sleep and homework. Fortunately, Ollie has his good buddy Leah to keep him company and help out with a bit of mischief when neccesary.
Ollie has a reputation as quite the practical joker among the Terps Battalion, and Leah is re-discovering the joys of being a creature of mischief amidst the military-minded. Ah, it brings back her days in the RAF (Royally Acerbic Fifinellas).

Also, technically the name tape on his chest should read "Ollendorf," since "Ollie" is supposedly a nickname. But "Ollendorf" is too damn long. So I shortened it.

Edit: And I didn't describe Leah much this time, but think of her as Nanny Ogg, only more drunk and with gremlin-class mischief-making ability.

Nice! Hopefully you won't have to drop out like you did last year. ;)

Oh nice story, the image looks like it's been edited from a previous image and not original work. I need to remind you that you need to be able to draw your character over and over again. ^_^

Hey that sounds like it could be hilarious, looking forward to the picture!

As for your question regarding could we make it so that the opponents comic is a movie - sure, you can do anything you like within the rules haha

Well the problem with 'shapeshifting' characters is that your opponent also has to draw your character.
