Title: A present to the deadies
Post by: Damask the Minstrel on December 16, 2009, 06:45:33 PM
So, Revel and I schemed up this little plan for the deadies, and I've kept it a secret so far -- or I hope I have. We commissioned, for the losers, original digital sketches by Gloria Pike (a regular survivor-contest artist). Each contestant has found out about theirs through PM (and, by extension, each others, as only the endings are different in the URLs). And since they're so nice, well, I didn't want to advertise the last one through PM or in our private forum, but share the goodness with all of you. So... here you go!

4th. Venny! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/twapa/commission/venril.jpg)
5th. Damask! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/twapa/commission/damask.jpg)
6th. Rath! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/twapa/commission/rath.jpg)
7th. Deadtail! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/twapa/commission/deadtail.jpg)
8th. Keane! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/twapa/commission/keane.jpg)
9th. Suellyn! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/twapa/commission/suellyn.jpg)

Your zombie-league (plus Dammy), folks!

Since the last three survive, will their pictures be shown here?  Or is this solely for the zombie league?

This commission was just for the zombie league. The winners/Revel/me will have to decide if we'll shell out for pictures of the winners.

We just felt that usually the losers get a, "Aww... poor you." and that's all. While winners get not only winning, but the majority of custom pictures and whatnot. So... this was a consolation of sorts. ^.^

I'd say that celebrity fanart is a pretty good trade-off for not winning the contest. Great idea, Damask and Revel.

Indeedy. Revel kept talking about dying on purpose to get some. XD

(Personally, I love that Dammy -- she drew him old!)

I could still die before the final voting, right? What if I die after final voting? Would I still count?

and because it was Birch's birthday... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/twapa/commission/birch.jpg

I'm sorry I didn't get one for Greenfang too!

Ah, that's okay. Somehow, I think he'll survive.  ;)

Well, you can choose to die.  That is your option.  In QB-3, Torry chose to die after the final death vote, and he won the contest.  So a "guaranteed survivor" dying isn't special as somebody has done it.     :hedgehog:

Wow, you actually paid for them?

That's pretty awesome of you, Damask, and a really nice way of honoring the fallen.

And, <3 Oldmask and Venril, particularly. And Suellyn's makes me sad. (But it's a good sad. :p )

Aye. You're a sweet fellow, Sir Robin. That was incredibly thoughtful.:)

'Tis much appreciated. And was I the only one dumb enough not to even consider changing the URLs?  :P

Good intentions and awesomeness are apparently not as readily accepted as PayPal.

Err... what does that mean, Jarr?

If it's a jab, then, well... of course I was going to pay for them. I've known Gloria for over a decade, and I knew she needed work, so I gave her some.

'twas a good-natured joke, nothing more. Of that I assure you.
