Hey, here's the March image for the coloring contest. For complete rules refer to the Feb. and Jan. contests. Basically, color this thing so it looks real good, then submit it here. Make sure the general lines are the same more or less. The deadline is in 2 weeks. That is on March 19th!!! It's soon.
Let's see if anyone can stop Esoteric.
Spread the word to anyone you know who has photoshop, the gimp, even just paint (I mean look at Piloswine :thumb: ).
I hope that this month there is a bigger turn out than last month.
I tried to get a voting judging system going last month but that flopped so I'll just judge again. If I do version than I'll post it but it won't count.
OK, have fun and post a submission before time runs out.
Winner gets a banner!! Woot. :brow:

Comment on this monthes image. It's kinda a small canvas so feel free to expand the canvas to end up with a bigger picture if you want. And go ahead and delete the date and that ugly scan line at the bottom if you want too. :thumb:

not quite sure what you mean by that but sounds interesting none the less. XD

Yes, I do have a tablet, but it's a cheap one (it cost $100, and yes, that's cheap.) A Wacom graphfire2....I think...I've had it a while.

wow, a striking job Piloswine. I'm not sure but this may border on graphic design seeing as you did very little actual coloring of the image...nonetheless, it's not sub-par from you and you continue to raise the bar of our expectations our of you. I'm sure it'll be close in the end between you and whoever else can manage to match you caliber of ... erm ... "coloring". :thumb:

Still only three entries? Man, this contest doesn't seem to be taking off at all. Bummer.
