CJJ's Spring Custom Contest (More Info to Come) - Page 2

***First of Two Latin Kings*** · 04-08-2010, 04:09 PM

My point is that you can enter something you've already started working on if you want...if you are going to finish them anyway, why not kill two birds with one stone and get what you can done in time to enter the contest?

I didn't start my entries until I'd already posted details because I didn't want to have an unfair advantage, but the rest of you are welcome to enter stuff you've already started work on. Or maybe you don't have any works in progress that are TMNT related?

None at the moment.. only game and movie projects. TMNT would be in the coming months

After mulling it over, I guess I'm in. I dug out a Casey Jones and Rat King I started on long ago whilst I was unpacking. I may have more to work on soon. Iwant to do a Renet fig, but dont have a suitable base ATM.
I don't expect to meet the deadline, as I've a family to work around.

There is no "deadline" at this point. Re-read thread carefully.

Sure. I also moved the arguments to the DU.

Thanks. Appreciate that.

Have sent you a PM as well.

*BigApple3AM* · 04-08-2010, 10:13 PM

Hey Darth how'd you know I'd been in the thread already? I hadn't posted yet

I'm still waiting to see if I can get the materials together before I make a commitment. It's a somewhat more ambitious project than I normally do so we'll see.

Good luck to everybody, looking forward to seeing everyone's stuff.

Mutated Turtle · 04-08-2010, 10:23 PM

Do the customs Have to be TMNT related?

If you click on a username and view a profile, you can see where/what members are doing.

I hope you can crank out something; I'm a pretty big fan of your work.

Er...yeah. Have you not looked at the categories? You haven't been here long which is why you don't understand that I'm here primarily to worship TMNTs, not like SOME peoples. Having said that, I'm not going to be TOO strict. I'll allow cross-over type stuff (ex. Darth Shredder) or stuff that is only tangentially related (Gizmo and Fluffy, Usagi and Gen, etc). If you have a specific idea you'd like to ask me about before starting work I'm only a PM away.

NOTICE: I will be out of town until Monday afternoon, so I won't be answering PMs, e-mails, or posts until that time.

OK.I'm pretty sure that 3 years is more than enough time to understand that MOST people are here because they like TMNT,

.You don't need to negative about it.

I was just being matter-of-fact.

Thanks, I'll try. It actually involves that pro pilot Don you hooked me up with.

Wow. How ironic...

TheMasterTurtle · 04-09-2010, 12:31 PM

Depending on getting the parts soon enough (despite a lack of a due date at the moment) and ultimately how long it will take to sculpt, mold, paint, sew, etc I'm probably in. I'm not all about entering a contest to only show progress of something I'm working on instead of a finished piece. I feel its an unfair and waste of an entry. So IF I have a sufficient amount of time to complete it between work, family, and other commitments.. You'll have an entry from me

***First of Two Latin Kings*** · 04-09-2010, 01:26 PM

At this point, I've decided that entries will be due May 9th at 12:00 PM EST at the earliest.

Do we need to write some names near our works to make sure no one is using other ppl's work/pics online?

I'll have to get back to you on that...but most of us have pretty distinct styles, so it would be hard to pull off in my opinion. If I suspect someone has done something in poor taste I'll require some sort of proof.

If I find out someone cheated, I will conjure up Foot Mystics to torture his soul for all of eternity.

CJJ contest? Narcissistic no?

Very.

I should build a CJJ figure as an entry...

I will allow fanmade characters as entries, so long as you can provide references (stories, previously done fan-art portrayals, etc). Might get some more fangirls interested.

But they MUST be characters from TMNT related universes. Only one fan-made character entry per user, please (if you choose to go that route at all).

*Powder* · 04-11-2010, 05:27 PM

I am working on an entry as I type this!

Its a character I've never seen done before though its gotta be the easiest to make...
