Blade Contest (http://www.marvel.com/bladecontest)

I am going to try it, but narrowing it down to only 4 pages has been driving me nuts!!

That grand prize is awesome...but i just heard about it today(8:15 pm on the 23rd) and its due on the 25th. This will be a mother-f-bomber to complete.Whats up with drawing it on 8.5 by 11?

Hey man, the art board prints out onto an 8.5 by 11 piece of paper, but the board itself is the correct dimensions for comics. It was just shrunk to fit on a standard piece of typing paper. (did that make any sense?)
I'm entering it- only have the 4th page left to ink.

I wish I could- but reading the fine print- I'm about 90% sure I'm not supposed to :confused: If I don't make it to the top 10, I'll post them here. If I do make it, well that's even better since everyone can see and maybe vote for it. I've never been to SDCC, and I've been building a solid portfolio for a year now.

That's going to be tough for sure. Finished pages is what they require. Good luck to all who's participating!

I've managed three and one half pages so far since yesterday when I read about this so here comes another late night. :(

I only had time to do rough pencils....
So since I'm not entering, I can post my roughs.

I won't be entering either although I did finish all of my pages. (four pages in 16 hours!! Yeah baby!) Although they aren't very good. I like what you did Tmac. My pages omited alot of what I thought was useless story telling(all the extra running around since I started her at the grave site.) And my female doesn't even closely resemble the one on the vid. I kinda just wrote a short crap script and went from there ignoring the little video so I missed some stuff. Oh well. Nice roughs by the way, I really like how the chica turned out.

I entered this contest. I just submitted the work. It took me about 10 hours to do all four pages. I think they turned out okay, but not my best work by any means. After they post the top ten, which I don't expect to be in, I'll post what I did here.

Tmac,

Your work is looking good. I did it differently then you, there were a lot of ways to tell the same story, but it was fun.

I made it to the TOP 10!!!! I was so excited to find out- you should all go check it out- I'm towards the bottom of the list- same user name. jdacosta.

If you go, please leave a vote, preferrably for me, but obviously, vote for your favorite.

Thanks

Here's what mine would have looked like(page four anyway. I couldn't find the rest :yawn: ) had I submitted it. VOTE KHOI! Congrats to everyone else, especially you JD, for making it into the top ten. :bounce:
