wow.. loads of stuff too (including mine). Didn't expect you to do a whole strip, Kali! Clever. And an interesting remake of Kya from the #17 comic.

Its turtle porn. :o

[HT butts into Donatello02's posts] Sorry... your annoying off topic humor is not in relation to what we're talking about here. Keep it up, and we might have to report you. Thank you.

~What? Where? There is nothing posted on the contest page I would hesitate to show my 7-year old. In fact, she entered a drawing herself!
Keeping the entries rated at PG-13 and below is one of the guidelines, and everyone has done that. Admirably.
:D

And as long as I'm here, remember, the contest closes at midnight February 2nd. (That's like Sunday night, for those easily confused types-- like me.)

~Ok, the latest entries are up. I know more are coming cuz I *know* Azure's gonna come through for us (and I'm holding the gate open for him so he has *no* excuses!)
Can you do a drawing in six- and- a- half hours, Machias?
I'm hoping I can....

http://www.behindthemasks.com/greenwillow/marysueentries.htm

I'll be contacting our panel of esteemed judges very soon with the guidelines for judging these puppies. Actually, if you happen to *be* one of my judges and you haven't heard from me, drop me a line!
"Winners" to be announced (hopefully) On Saturday, Feb 8th-- hey that's a nice date!

Thank you and thank you and thank you!! to everyone who entered and helped to make this contest fun and successful.

Aww.. Azure didn't get his in in time? :( Oh well...

Ish.. my Lawson pic looks really chunky now. Well, I look decent, but the Turtle... ugh! Yeah, can you not tell I just threw that thing togeher in the nick o' time. If I had more time, I would have made sure the Turtle looked way more like a Lawson one, and then I would've inked it all nice too. But last week was horrible when it came to finding ANY freetime. Oh well....

More power to the rest of yas! :D *thinks Alies' entries look cool too*

~No-- Azure's is up there-- refresh yer browser, HT!
And I thought your "Lawson" pic was great. Even if you didn't give yourself that tiny wasp waistline-- You coulda! (Of course, I refrained from giving myself the Standard Eastman and Laird Bustline, too....<sai>)

Oh, there's more stuff coming up. I refreshed before on Monday, and it wasn't. Weird. But I also like Lisa's... looks like her, and Azure's was just hilarious! Your 'family portrait' is cute too, GW.

Yeah.. I tried to do the wasp thin wasitline, but then I would have to wear a tight tank top as well to empahsize it. Nor do I have the Standard Eastman Bustline either! *lol* Frankly, that wasn't very much like me and it'll prolly look like some other strange chick we never met before! :wink: I also was going more by what I saw in City at War. The women there had normal waistlines and rounded faces. I will admit, I broke the shoe rule. If you notice, all the people he draws wear converse (or reebok) high-top shoes, boots, or those little ninja footies. :roll:

~Oh jeez, Machias- I'm sorry-- my judges have already started their voting-- :tsad:
Well, I know I'll be hosting another one eventually. Maybe in a few months I'll get re-inspired.....
But I have heard a rumour of another possible fan fic or fan art contest coming up that might appeal to Kali-- or Donatello02 for that matter.....<cough cough> Eh, PM me if you want info....
Oh, and *everyone* thank you sooo much for participating. I don't think I ever wrote you back on your entry Azure, but honestly, that had me falling out of my chair laughing.

Woah, thanks GW! My only purpose in entering the contest was to get a few laughs... If people found my entry to be funny, then I've accomplished my goal. :D

The judges have already started voting? I bet it's gonna be a tough decision... There are so many awesome entries. I can't even begin to describe how much I'm impressed with all of them.

~Hi All -- sorry this has taken so long. I was hoping to get this out on Saturday.
Anyway, without further ado--
Tied for Fourth Place:
"Sango and Donnie and Sango", by Sango
and
"No, you hold it like THIS", by Kali Gargoyle

Third Place:
"Turtle Trouble" by Alies Meerman

Second Place:
"Nothing Beats Being Cold" by Brinatello

and....First Place:
"Is this a Private Sulk?" by Alies Meerman!

And since I firmly believe that all that hard work deserves recognition, all other entries will be receiving Honorable Mentions.

A huge Thank You to our Judges-- Amandatello, Jephael, Anthony, and Dark Turtle!
Thank you's to everyone who participated!

Thanks, Mouse. :D Alies is a fan from, the Netherlands, is it? She's not on this board (I think...) but she is on the NT mailing list. Amazing artist, isn't she?
