Call for guest strips and fanart

Ladies, gents and other beings, the end of "The Virgin and the Unicorn" fast approaches.

Once it's finished, I'd like to run a couple of weeks of fan-creations while I get the next one in order.

So get your pencils out - I want guest strips, one-panel fanart, poetry, even. Whatever you like. :)

I'd say you have about three weeks to get it done, so we'll make the working deadline Monday 20th January, though it'll probably be extended.

Yeah, okay, I'll give it a go! :wink:

Why not...

... All I have to do now is find out why my scanner isn't working...

Wacko!
Yay, Phred!

... Although I'd suggest that it'll be less obviously Pantheon and more Python...

That's quite all right. I love pythons of all kinds, especially Monties.

... It's also shaping up, if the ideas I had last night [while I was trying to get to sleep... :x ] are any indication, to be quite long.

... Very long...

(Not wishing to imply there's actually a plot or anything, let's not go overboard...)

Well, I've got a single page planned out so far, and I should have it done in the near future...

I have got a plot! ^__^

... But it took two pages to establish it.

[And I have to say, Tim, it probably would have been faster to draw it myself, rather than all this cut-and-pasting...]

Make them however long you want and by whatever method you see fit.

The more guest stuff I get, the longer my guest weeks can go for and the more often they can update. :) :)

I have three submissions so far. I want lots more! :D

Oh yeah, and the deadline's extended to the 27th.

Nearly finished the third page [I hope you appreciate this: it's taking hours!! ] - and the thot has just plickened...

Or, as they say in the classics: "It's fallen in the River Styx..."

Just finishing up the second-last panel on page four.

Trying to find some fire, my damn clip art isn't loading properly. >_<

It's going to be six pages.

*Rolls eyes*

*AAAARRRGGGHHH!!!*

I wanted a Mary for my strip!

*Cries*

... But it's okay.

I've forgotten what for, now.



[Oh... and it's going to be eight pages.]

:D

Oh dear, sorry Phred! :)

Eight pages, golly! You're going to have a whole week to yourself!
I might have to start doubling up your pages if it gets any longer. :D

Nine now.

The problem is that I keep getting myself out of holes with a new plot twist, but none of them have an obvious finishing point. :(

It's finished! ^_____^

Eleven pages total: I'm still witing on the result of an opinion poll regarding which version of a sound-effect I should use, then I can covert to 'net-friendly material and send (that'll be Monday, Tim: hope your in-box is clear...)

There's one panel comes in two versions: choose which version you want.

I'd have finished six hours ago, but my 'net connection's been down all afternoon and I needed ONE more graphic... >_<

:)

Whee!
I look mightily forward to this one!
