2009-03-05 [deeterhi]: as to [organicparadox]: the inking took a while longer than I originally expected. I think I started inking it and then maybe half-way through I stop and don't pick it back up until a few months later, which is rare for me because most of the time, I work straight through ;)

2009-03-08 [arthemis_]: [coldkiki], nice detailing with the berries in the bush! :D

2009-03-09 [coldkiki]: ._. ...thanks...i actually feel kind of bad about that, becuase i didn't realize until i was done that we weren't suppose to add anything that wasn't already naturally within the drawing.

2009-03-09 [deeterhi]: aww, don't worry too much. That's a small detail anyways :) That rule is mostly there for people who completely paint over things so that it drastically changes the lineart. THAT would be a big no-no.

2009-03-09 [XxTsomexX]: I finally got around to doing mine :D lol

2009-03-10 [deeterhi]: I'm definitely going to be recruiting some judges because I'm not gonna be able to pick the winner by myself.

2009-03-10 [arthemis_]: Lol, it's going to be hard I imagine :D I see so many pieces I would vote at here :D

2009-03-10 [organicparadox]: lol, i do not envy the judges!

2009-03-21 [Rondel]: Stupid question time... ...I like the line art in this, and I want to give a try to colouring it more than once, in different media. Is it okay to submit more than one entry, either as separate entries, or as alternates? I looked in the rules for any mention of entry limits, per person, and didn't see anything; I've seen some contests before where people are allowed to enter more than one piece, if they have multiple suitable items, and so I thought I'd risk looking stupid and/or greedy, rather than keeping silent and assuming (given the old saying about what one gets when one assumes (making an "ass" of "u" and "me"...)).

I have no great emotional investment in the answer to that question, but I do have one other for you. I really like the way my current colouring attempt with this piece is coming out. Do you have any restrictions you wish to place on the display of completed entries as examples of the colourist's work, as long as due credit is given to the creator of the (gorgeous and inspiring) line art?

I'm really enjoying this as my first chance to try natural media colouring, now that we have a new printer and I can actually print things out again. *grin* Thanks, [deeterhi], for creating such a delightful piece for us to colour! :D

2009-03-21 [arthemis_]: Very very nice entry [Triola]!

2009-03-21 [Triola]: Thanks :D

2009-03-21 [Jeccabee]: OOH night time! very pretty Triola!

2009-03-22 [Triola]: Thank you :3

2009-03-23 [deeterhi]: To [Rondel]: At one point, I had the rule one entry per person, but I decided to get rid of it because other people were asking if they could enter more than one time, and I think if they have the inspiration and creativity- Go ahead! ^^

To your second question- You can post up the piece as long as you give me credit and link back to either my page, my blog, or my deviant account (all of which can be found on my house page).

I'm glad you are enjoying working on the line-art :)

2009-04-07 [Maketsu]: Very nice work, all the patrons and new comers. :-)

[deetheri] I think it's better to let an inspired artist submit two images than wait for entriest that will never come. :-)

2009-04-08 [deeterhi]: Yes [Maketsu], that's what I said ^^

2009-04-14 [wicked fae mage]: Neato. I like this contest idea =3

2009-04-16 [Kaimee]: Oh, I updated mine btw xD It's not finished, but I figured I may never finish it so I might as well post what I had!

2009-04-16 [Cillamoon]: I hope that when voting does commence, that we can vote for more than one picture. I love so many of them!

2009-04-16 [Kaimee]: I agree that would be great :D

2009-05-28 [Azaroth]: i'm going to receive a drawing tablet soon so i'll try to enter this contest too, if i'm not too late that is hehe
