[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Now that Paragon Chat is up, Costume Contests are just a small step away. Hooray![/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]But, as influence is not available as a price, I was wondering if people would be interested in winning art instead?[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]This means you can win, for example, a portrait or sketch or full collored (depending on the participating artists) of a City of Titans (to be) character (which obviously can also be your current City of Heroes character or someone elses or a npc, your choice as long as it's within the artist's power to make it happen).[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]It will take some preperations to connect with artists willing to donate, but I'm willing to put in the effort.[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Please let me know in a reply to this post if you'ld would consider entering the contest, or if you'ld be willing to donate art. [/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Just to show you, how awesome this can be, I'll put up a few examples of art that was won through a contest in City of Heroes, back when it was up and running. The link leads to a folder on Deviant Art with more examples.[/color][/b][/size][/font]

[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]I also posted this on the ehm.. non-art related part of the forums (I must admit, I often get lost beyond the Media-Sharing part [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Blush.png[/img]), but so far there doesn't seem to be much attention drawn to it, so I thought I'd repost here, knowing this is the place where art lovers hang out anyway.[/color][/b][/size][/font]

Be Well!

[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] A get together would be quite nice indeed! I asked around on Facebook and there are more people interested in participating in a costume contest like this. I guess I could ask around to see if I can find some artists willing to donate a drawing. [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Yay.png[/img]. I'll keep you posted on the costume contest![/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] As for the get together... count me in! I probably won't be able to for about a week and half starting monday though [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Sad.png[/img]

[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Did someone say contest?
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] I'm down, just say when.
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Actually I would go one step further, if it hasn't been done so already we are going to need an Artz Supergroup
for when CoT launches. CoH had ones like the Envisionaries and Artists Studio and the Peacekeepers
so if we don't have one yet we should start thinking up a good name. Perhaps I'll start a thread.

[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Yay! [url=http://cityoftitans.com/forum/artist-and-art-appreciators-supergroup]The thread[/url] is noted! I already put in some thoughts. [/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]As I still haven't had many responses to the whole "win art with a costume contest" thing, I have been reluctant to start one. But actually, I do really feel like having one. For ol' time sake even! I'll do some research and see if I can find some willing artists agreeing to give art away.[img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Yay.png[/img].[/color][/b][/size][/font]
