Title: The Holidays Challenge!
lusvell - December 20, 2007 10:06 PM (GMT)
So I'm currently working to build my portfolio, but since we are so close X-mas and New Years, we should have some kind of contest/fun, and at the same time, you help me build up my portfolio (even if it's not safe for it, it'll still be created)
So what I'm asking from you guys, is to come up with an idea for a holiday poster, no matter how crazy or extreme it may be. The rules are simple:
*All entries are to be posted here, for everyone to see.
*I'll pick the winner and make an illustration for it. If there's more than 1 entry >_> and more that I like, I'll give them a shot too.
*Just go crazy with it.
:santa:

Have a group shot of the main OTTS members in a drawing.
With Merry Christmas at the bottom and everyone with a santa hat or something festive and we can all look drunk or something and have Santa in the middle of us for the picture. So it looks like a drawn photo of us with Santa.
^_^

AntiClaus. The killer santa.

My penis terrorizing a city. The penis can have a Santa hat on.
lusvell - December 21, 2007 03:59 AM (GMT)
hmm...I do like the sound of AntiClaus.

Two ideas, that are more thought ideas of two already said.
-A comic nook cover: AntiClaus vs. OTTS! Will they save X-mas from total destruction?
-A group picture of main otts members........at a holiday party. SOme could be opening presents, others, could be decorating a tree, or fighting with each other....others having eggnog, two members looking at each other awkwardly under mistletoe....:P maybe Santa could be coming down the Chimmney. with a 'Merry Xmas, or Have a happy holiday' thing underneath.
OR, OR, picture like that, but each of us has with us our favorite fictional babe ^v^

Well your a god damn faggot then.
I like my idea >:(
Gambitmo - December 21, 2007 11:48 AM (GMT)
I'm with Batto, but how will Lus know how to draw us all?
Based on our avatars? Pics sent in? Characterizations of our characters?
Should we send in how we want ourselves drawn? (A fun idea, since there are already some of Twilight and Tim floating around.)
Hellstorm - December 21, 2007 12:24 PM (GMT)
Just basing this upon recent Kibitz events, I'd say Lusvell would, in Batto's idea, continue his efforts of the Member Awards of 2006, drawing his interpretation of all of us.
lusvell - December 21, 2007 09:03 PM (GMT)
eh, well, my plan wasnt to do anything based on the whole GTC/awards comics characters, but if thats what you guys want...
Linc - December 21, 2007 10:41 PM (GMT)
I saw the pictures from last year yesterday, they were pretty damn sweet, both the drawing and colouring were good.
ElBatto - December 22, 2007 12:06 AM (GMT)
Lusvell I give you full approval to edit them to OTTS. Fuck GTC. Lets OTTS it up.
But then your character wasn't just GTC you used it for a few things didn't you? It's just a character doesn't mean it has to be tied to that site. Much like the character you drew of me or whoever else was in there.
lusvell - December 22, 2007 09:08 PM (GMT)
eh, I'll do a mix with AntiClaus and some of the OTTS crew...I started sketching it yesterday, lets see how it comes out.
retrohelix - January 5, 2008 08:36 PM (GMT)
Lusvell is pretty much fucking done with the fucking thing, why the fuck is the picture not up already? FUCK!
lusvell - January 5, 2008 11:53 PM (GMT)
because it needs to be refined, like every fine wine.

You're going to put it into a cellar for several years?

The assonance in that sentence made my brain hurt.
How long can we expect to wait for your picture to ferment?

CAN IT? :wtf

lusvell - January 6, 2008 08:33 PM (GMT)
i'll be honest, it's not that great, in my opinion, but if you guys really wanna see it...
Twilight - January 6, 2008 09:03 PM (GMT)
Where is it then? Oh, and the new smiley kicks ass. :wiiformer
lusvell - January 7, 2008 11:01 PM (GMT)
Like I said, it's not that great.
OTTS vs X-mas
AntiClaus, Retro, Lus, ElBatto, Hellstorm, ZL, and Rude the henchman.
Bloodshot - January 7, 2008 11:33 PM (GMT)
It's better than anything I can come up with.
Linc - January 8, 2008 12:55 AM (GMT)
Thats approximately 30 to 40 times better than anything I could come up with. I love it, especially the sketch style. How did you come up with the ways of representing those guys in the first place, I mean even for the earlier drawings?
ZL-X - January 8, 2008 01:46 AM (GMT)
awesome Lus.
I like El Batto's expression in it, and the fact he only wears a ripped vest :P

That's fucking awesome!
Which one am I?
ElBatto - January 8, 2008 02:15 PM (GMT)
If the yobo looking Australian guy is me then all I can say is D= my last drawn me was so cool. Actually this new guy kinda grows on you. He's a loveable raggamuffin =D
But I am going to give my honest opinion on this drawing it's good but it's not as good as you can produce your capable of much better. Looks kinda rushed.
Especially your character I am used to it being clean refined and detailed. Always seem to have the utmost care with it. However in this drawing you kind of look like a missing link in Evolution. The monkey demon Lus.
The torn vest dude which I am guessing is me does look quite good. Looks like a mix of Angus Young and crocodile dundee. He looks better than Lus but I think that's because I am so used to how Lusvell looks in these usually.
It is good I really quite like it. That's just my creative criticism on it. I am not an artist so it doesn't count for much but it is good.
Would really like to see some more of your better work at some point though.
Sorry if I have offended you in anyway with this,
LilBitEvil - January 8, 2008 02:43 PM (GMT)
Looks good lus, I don't know what you were worried about. Anti-claws could have used a slay of death.
retrohelix - January 8, 2008 03:24 PM (GMT)
I think it was rushed, if I'm not mistaken he started the piece when he was in NY, so my guess is that he was too tired and began this out of boredom, I would love to see a better version in which I'll probably look more awesome 8)

guy with the giant robot arm.
Batto: No offense taken. I understand where you are going. Yea, like Retro said, I started this when I went up to NY, and throughout the bus trip back. When I got here and finished it, I just wasnt feeling it anymore.
And yea, the ragged dude there is you. I know, Australian stereotype, but I couldnt come up with something else, (unless you got a better idea).
I'll try to redeem myself off this later with something better.
Hellstorm - January 8, 2008 08:52 PM (GMT)
That's pretty sweet. I don't even care that I'm so small. I'm like white Barret now :D
ﮘЎŦђ€ - January 8, 2008 09:57 PM (GMT)
<.< No on ever draws me... :'(
LilBitEvil - January 8, 2008 10:23 PM (GMT)
He doesn't draw me either and I'm the only one who would pay him to work if I had the cash flow.

And underneath my coat I have big leathery wings. Muhahahahaha. >.<
:bats < no relation
I am actually working on something at the moment that may giv some excitement I will PM you about it in a couple days first have to detail what I am doing first.
You are definetly good at drawing but like Pun you see to lack the motivation sometimes lol. I guess that just comes with being an artist.
