Well, like I said over on the thread for Christopher's set contest, I'm more than willing to take a stab at this...

I've already got my three ideas down: a Fire Emblem set (of course), something dark, and an Oren Iishi (anime) set.

In fact, I've already started on the Oren set - and it's going pretty well, if I do say so myself. I just need one thing from you, though, so that I can complete it... a quote.

I found a few good Oren one-liners, and I narrowed it down to three. So, if you could pick one - or give me one of your own - then I can finish the set.

  • Silly Caucasion girl likes to play with Samurai swords.
  • You might not be able to fight like a Samurai, but you can at least die like a Samurai.
  • Do I look familiar? Do I look like somebody... you murdered? (possibly a little to brutal...)


Anyway, let me know asap. I should have the first of my entries up tomorrow.

OK. Just to tell you all that I've increased the prize to 100k and I am adding another theme. Resident Evil (any of the games)

Entry 1: The Dark Jester

Image Image

This is the dark set I was talking about. It didn't really turn out as dark I would've liked, but I still think it has a slightly sinister feel. If I can find it, I'll post a link to the original image.

Also, first time trying a non-square avatar. I think it worked pretty well.


Entry 2: Oren Iishi

Image Image

Personally, I love this set. It was just so... simple. But it's also dark and sorta brutal. Anyway, hope you don't mind me not putting your name on the avatar. I tried it, but I couldn't get it to work the way I wanted. If you'd rather have your name on it, let me know and I'll see what I can do.


Entry 3: Fire Emblem

Image Image

Honestly, I'm not too sure of this set. On the one hand, I love the signature, but on the other, I hate the avatar. Eh. It took me forever, though, so I don't really feel like fiddling with it any more.

Anyway, I tried to make something that was like, yet unlike, the set I made for Christopher. And hopefully this does the job.


So yea... that's my 3 entries. All done and posted before anyone else had a chance :P

Well, I gave it a shot anyway:

and a slight variation:

Nothing special, except I actually did the watery thing myself. Ver plain, but somehow I like it (even if you don't XD).
Bear with me, I just need as much practice as I can for making sets >.< cuz right now it's not very nice.

I *might* do another, but it depends.

Thu Aug 19, 2004 7:42 pm

OK. I have decided on a date for the closing, and it's September the 6th. Make with the creative.

Mon Aug 23, 2004 9:00 pm

Just bumping for you. :)

Wed Aug 25, 2004 7:59 am

Okay, last one. Didn't quite turn out how i was hoping it would, but here you go:

Wed Aug 25, 2004 3:52 pm

Here is mine.

Image Image

I like it a lot although the picture you have provided makes my hair stand. Hope that you will like it too.

Tue Aug 31, 2004 3:05 pm

OK. The date is being moved back to the 11th of September now. And I now have the 100k and the 2nd and 3rd placepeople will no longer get items, but instead some serious NP.

Tue Aug 31, 2004 4:01 pm

Here you go:

It's rubbish, but hey. :roll:

Might enter another later, I'll see what I can do. :D

Tue Aug 31, 2004 7:16 pm

Wed Sep 01, 2004 12:00 pm

Thu Sep 02, 2004 11:34 am
