Friday Night Fights Interest ?

fridayfightnight-copy

 

Well I am considering running another Friday Night Fights and am trying to Gage interest. If I do this you will have a full month to submit entries instead of one week which I ended up extending an additional week last time. If you are interested leave a comment below, and you can also suggest a theme for the contest.

Character Design Contest ♯44- That’s All History

This week, I would like you to create a historical character from any point in human history. You can do any time between the Stone Age to World War 2 (preferably no later than WW2 please), anywhere in the world, Renaissance Italy, Ancient Egypt, Feudal Japan, Medieval England or Civil War America, just so long as the character fits the time. No steampunk unfortunately, as that didn't actually happen, but you've got nearly all of human history to play with so surely you can come up with ideas.

One little change this week, my fellow moderator and serial contest winner; djuby shall be guest judging for me this week. I'm sure he will be looking very closely at your costume designs, so make sure they're good.

As per usual, there are no entry limits, the contest will close at 12am Sunday (blog time). Please read the rules before entering, have fun and good luck.

Rules for posts, contests, and challenges that I am hosting: Original characters only, no copyrighted characters, no characters based on copyrighted characters, no characters based on RPG’s or other games. The characters must be your own design and not based on any character that might be copyrighted in any way. I have the right to delete any post that I believe crosses this line without warnings. Only post characters that you have either created for this contest specifically or you know for certain have never been entered to a contest before. If you aren’t certain, don’t enter it, because I’m not going to go back through all of the contests and check.

What Were They Thinking: “Slightly Above Average” Woman

As we all know, hindsight is a wonderful thing. And looking back through some questionable decisions made by the big two (I don't really know enough about Dark Horse or Image to comment on them), it seems that one of the biggest problems they have is chasing trends. So, for the next few WWTT's we'll be having a look at the most questionable of these trend chasers (be warned there will be '90's), starting today with the earliest.

Character Design Contest ♯42 (Public Domain Amalgam) Results

I must say, I was surprised at how this poll turned out. I'm not surprised at who won, but the way in which people voted was most unexpected, I thought it would have been much closer than it was. However, this weeks winner, collecting over half the votes and one more vote than the rest of the competition combined, was for the second week running: djuby for his amalgamation of Scarlet Arrow and Black Terror- Black Archer

Anime Talk: Marvel Anime

This week on Anime Talk I would like to talk about Marvel Entertainment and Japanese Animation Studio Madhouse's anime Adaptations of Wolverine, The X-Men, Iron Man, and Blade.

 

Now I will admit I have only seen a couple episodes each of the Iron Man, Wolverine, and X-Men anime's and none at all of the Blade series thought from what I saw I certainly want to see a lot more of Iron Man, and The X-Men ( not impressed with Wolverine ). However since I have not seen a great deal of these shows to give a proper mini review of any of them I want to turn to you the readers and ask you have you seen any of these four Anime series? If you have what did you think of them? If you haven't are you interested in seeing any of them ? why or why not?

Power User Profiles: Delirious Al

Back when I first brought back the PUPs, I went through all of the old PUPs to try and see if any of my choices had already been done. Much to my amazement, this weeks Power User had not been done, even though I was sure he had. Maybe he was just too obvious a choice, but either way he is a definite Power User, an excellent creator who specialises in being off the wall in both his creations and, as you will soon see, his comments. So everyone give a big hand for; Delirious Al.
