O hay guys.
So I was thinking.
I have two doujinshi that I have doubles of and no one seems to want to buy off of me, so I figured I'd devise a clever way to find someone to give them to. Which is how I came up with the ingenious idea to have a fanart contest to do this. The rules are simple, but I will put them in bullet form just so it is all super clear. I hope this is something people will be interested in, as I'm not sure I've seen any fanart contests in a while =D
1. The theme for this is fantasy, so go crazy. It doesn't have to be traditional fantasy, either: if you come up with a modern fantasy idea like Harry Potter or something, that's cool too. You can also dabble in other related genres such as sci-fi and horror, just be creative!!
2. This is primarily a Heero/Duo contest because I'm me and that's what I'm fixated on, not to mention that the doujinshi is Heero/Duo anyway. If you'd like to draw other Gundam characters, that is fine, but please ask me first.
4. Any medium you feel comfortable working in is okay, but you must end up with a completed image. That doesn't mean it has to be coloured, but it also has to be something that is more than a concept doodle or sketch.
3. The deadline is going to be about two months from now, March 1st. To submit your finished image, please email me at link@zephyr121.com with your image attached.
4. Also, please refrain from uploading your picture to the internet before the deadline to ensure that whatever you came up with is something you drew especially for the contest. The only exception would be if you are posting progress for critique.
5. HAVE FUN. OR ELSE )8
Oh, and for those of you wondering what the prizes were, here are scans of the covers. The first one, which is by Miyabi Hokushina, is paired with an image I'm sure you all have seen before and is from this doujinshi. The other, despite the cute cover, is just dirty floor sex in the hangar, courtesy of Magnum 55, lol. Anyway, the winner can pick which one of these and the runner up can have the other one.
( fabulous prizes! ) |

| Christmas Eve |

It being Christmas Eve and all, I was thinking of this Christmas story and drew it up. I meant to draw it nicer, but didn't get time. It's about family.
( under the cut, because it's big )
If it helps to understand it better, I am the second oldest of four girls.
Merry Christmas, everyone! To you and yours. |

A Scottish cartoon, since I am back home for the holidays.
I'm well acquainted with the tune "Lord Lovat's Lament," since you hear it around these parts every time anyone has to pick up a fiddle and learn something. But you know, it's one of those tunes you know so well, you pay no attention to it, it's just there in the back of your head.
Then one day, I was looking up a bunch of works by Hogarth (the best) and came upon this portrait of 'Lord Lovat'. The lovely old tune and that devily face, they didn't match. So I wanted to learn more about him!
Lovat (Simon Fraser, born 1697 - there are about a million Simon Fraser Lord Lovats) really epitomizes how reading Scottish history can make you want to tear your eyeballs out, or laugh because it's nearly a farce it's so nutty. Either the people involved are disastrously loyal, or disastrously duplicitous. Everything is a disaster, but it's a hell of a ride. |

Thanks to danse and Natea for the once over. Despite the fact this is part of Natea’s birthday present, I still needed her to fill me in on the Alliance history they don’t teach us on Horde, so thanks for that also =P [read any chapters you missed on my website] -- ( part vii -- blood and thunder )

My job and my boss are going to kill me, I swear. I don't trust him to hire me after getting to know him these three months, and he makes these sexual comments that are suuuuuuper uncomfortable. I should really quit and just start from scratch again, because awesome as this internship has been, I should have been paid for working 40 hour weeks all this time. If you never hear from me again, it is because I am dead. |

I hate Christmas.
With passion.
With Scrooge-like passion.
I hate it beyond all the stress of getting together presents and drawing art for cards and such. I hate that the entire idea of the holiday has become so diluted, that all anyone thinks about is the stress and the presents and the cards. So much for peace on earth and all that sort of thing.
Anyway, this is what's going out on my cards this year, and I hope it's as amusing to you as it is to me. It's not amazing, and it was originally a joke sketch I did in ballpoint pen while I was bored at work, but my other idea just wasn't working out and this was kind of funny. ( don't click if you don't want to get spoiled for cards this year )
If you want a card from me, send me an email or an LJ note with your address so I know. I have a core group I usually expect cards from, but I want to make sure I print enough cards should anyone else want one from me =D |
