Christophers 2nd Set Contest. It is done.

Fri May 26, 2006 12:11 pm

Bribe has now reached a total of 400000NP Zomg

Yay! Super fun happy time again it is. Or rather will be for me as either for the large bribe or for the sheer fun of it, hopefully you lot will make some good sets for me :P

I was going to do this quite a while ago, but it has taken so long for the number of set contests to settle down.

First of all, do not do neopets. Secondly, here is an almost current list of all the sets I have incase you want to see style or something:. Thirdly, do not be afraid of ambiguious 'are they male or female?' characters, they're fine. Even if it's female. Fourthly, animation is ok, but only minimally like little blinking things. Fifthly, if someone uses an image, it doesn't mean you can't, beat them >:). Sixthly, Chris or Christopher for text, doesn't even have to be on one of them, and subtexts are fine, don't make it too big. Seventhly, I am a picky git. I may even play around with the sets you make.

As for the bribe, currently the prize pool is 400k NP. I'm looking at an idea of three major awards of around 100k, with whatever new NP aquired distributed in a comparison ration of 1st to 2nd to 3rd and few smaller spot prizes for runners up.

You can enter as many sets as you want, but you can only win one prize. Well...unless it's just too damned fantastic.

My current obsession, or rather my rekindled obsession is .Hack, rekindled by .Hack//Roots and more importantly, the .Hack//GU games. They have some amazing character art and thus require sets with my name on them. In addition I also discovered a new trove of good .hack//sign stuff, so that can be used to. But of course it is not all .hack.

Categories! Blue = Want!, Green = Good, Black = ok

Anime and Manga! - Lots of series that I like, look in the anime board for my favs if you need to - Evangelion, Excel Saga (Il Pallazzo), Ultimate Hellsing, Gungrave, Trigun, lots of newer series too like PPD, Gankutsuou, Gun x Sword, FLCL, Even some retro stuff could be good like Dominion Tank Police
Mecha/Ships (from gundams to the Nadesico, almost anything that looks good (except escaflowne...damn movie))
.Hack (any series, any game, but the ones mentioned are good.)
Those creepy white haired guys like Kaoru

Golden Sun (though I may have exhausted this mine)
Fire Emblem (always a good source for sets)
Mythology
Legends
Ragnarok Online
Classical History (These last three categories encompass all religions, gods, etc. Roman, Greek, Persian, Celtic, Norse, Arthurian, (norse and greek are best), and even slightly more modern stuff.
That seriously overdetailed renaissance stuff
Birds (NZ birds are better...)
Flowers or naturey sets (haven't really got any)
Randomness
Elvish stuff
Faeriish stuff
Angels/Demons
Art Nouveau
Medieval
Magic
Excessive blood
Tarot
Amusingness
Fire
Reboot (silver bob, Matrix)
Evil
Things that look cute but are really evil
Transformers
Black and white style stuff - This can also include manga incorporated into a set. Considering that manga is usually more detailed than anime, this might be interesting!


Here's some very good pics that I particularly would like Settificated.

Feel free to ask questions. More categories will probably be added.

I was wondering why you were still using that set I made you. :o

I think I have a .//hack picture on my computer. I'll see what I can do.

Chris, methinks you have poked me out of my set-making depression. I'll see what I can do ^^

It's okay! It'd be really scary if it was like Wind's & Pixa's.
