Ok, all you artists out there, we need your help.

We are putting together a special edition of the #1 Preview book for Comics XP, but we need some more content. So we are opening up the call for a pinup contest!

The top three (3) pinups will be included with full credits going to the artists.

RULES

Pinups must only contain Wannabez characters (multiple characters are allowed)
Any medium is acceptable
Color, black and white, or grayscale is acceptable
Teams are welcome

DEADLINE

The contest begins today, September 14, 2009 and will end Friday, October 2nd.

Winners will be announced during Mid-Ohio-Con.

PRIZES

There is no pay involved, but your work will potentially be seen by a lot of people. And hey, it's just plain fun drawing those Wannabez characters anyway, right?! biggrin.gif

We will also give random prints of Wannabez art to the winners and a copy of the #0 issue signed by Scott and myself. If you already have the book, we may come up with some other cool prize (stay tuned)

REFERENCES

Check out the Wannabez website (www.wannabez.com) for reference of some of the characters (look under the HEROES button for previous pinups), other reference will be added in this thread soon.

Just wanted to remind everyone that there's only one week left to turn in your entries for the contest! We've already gotten two great ones, but we'd love to get a lot more!

And Crazz, I was just kidding, feel free to enter your stick figure ones. smile.gif And Cary, I know you've got some drawing skills as well.

All entries are welcome!

Remember to post your art in the contest thread. And you can post unfinished work and edit the post up to next Friday as you progress if you like.

Thanks!

Can you enter more than one? I have my first one pretty much done, but have an idea for a second one. Please let me know, thanks!
