SOTM 2010 - November (Steampunk OR Cyberpunk) - Voting Thread

[Dist]

Bow is a weapon too.. and it sure can be used for killing .. So I figure why not ? Besides the second image of the example shows a girl with a bow ...

why sure Rika >.> finding decent images of Cierra and Riviera in general is very annoying.
besides, it wasn't easy for me to win a SOTM contest and well just grabbed the opportunity to make something more challenging than usual

EDIT:
Dist,like I said Anything created for attacking purposes counts

Are we making 3 signatures? Choosing 1 (or more) of the 3? Or must it be all-in-one?

just like last time's double theme. It will be 1 signature in which one theme must appear but theme mixing is also accepted.

[Mr. Wang]

It's been repeatedly said that anything that was created with the intent on attacking someone.

Now then, would a kitchen knife count as a weapon? Or would it have to be more of an actual combat knife? Or would any knife do (so long as it's not a butter knife)? I don't know whether or not the kitchen knife might fall under this category, or if I'm even doing a signature with one, but I'm sure at least some of us might be curious of the answer. I mean, if a Yandere were to pick up one, you know she's not using it to dice food ingredients.

Based on that wording no. Using common sense however, if it has blood on it, or is "outside the kitchen", it's now a dagger - ie. weapon meant for killing/hurting someone.

Spoiler:

Looks like Ciel won't fit the bill, since one of the Alice-in-Wonderland criteria is "blonde" hair.

Wow, such nice themes...eclectic yet not. I wonder if I'll have time to throw something in...

@Cierra: about the sketch theme, does the sketchiness of the image have to be part of the original image or can we make it look like a sketch?

I will briefly explain all the themes

THEME 1: Weapons Chosen by Namiey

Spoiler for Explanation:

For this theme, any image that has weapons in counts.Weapons that will work:spears,bows,axes,swords,guns,daggers,things that are actually made for attacking. I explained that because a lot of characters use common things as weapons such as books,umbrellas or dolls but do not believe these would count. So,to cut a long story short,objects that are created for attacking purposes will count

Spoiler for examples:

THEME 2: Alice in Wonderland Chosen by JuJuBeez

Spoiler for Explanation:

Alice in Wonderland, yes just her alone with no other character. She has to be the original Alice from the classical literature and easily recognizable. Therefore, any image that contains the following characteristics should be fine.

Criteria are as follows - the character must have:
Blond Hair
Ribbon/Bow in hair
Wearing Blue/White Dress

Spoiler for examples:

THEME 3: Sketch Chosen by Cierra

Spoiler for explanation:

In contrast to the previous themes,mine is a bit more demanding. It doesn't have any anime/character restrictions but the signature must have as a source image a rough sketch. That would be an image where you can see very dirty pencil lining and messy colors. Some example images will help you more with that

Spoiler for examples:

feel free to send me any questions you might have if you wish to work on it because I can't say for sure that I am good in presentations

P.S: I added some additional information is Namiey's theme. These are from MY point of view. Namie can always correct me if I happened to make a mistake

it's correct of course, but i would like the weapons main usage is for killing beside from attacking.

Solace should just create a new thread immediately after voting thread is closed; and winners can post the theme there. That way things can move along faster.

Yeah the last time I did that it bombed. People were completely confused as to why there was an entry thread with no theme. There's no "moving along" if there isn't a theme to create a signature with.

Anyway, entry thread will be up in a moment.
