Thanks guys! I'm so excited to see all of your entries, and I'm also really excited to be able to judge the contest! :D Anyways, maybe I can finish my own colored version of this (not to enter, of course)...I drew this months ago, and I still haven't finished it. XD Anyways, I can't wait to see how the entries turn out! :D

I have a question.
Is there a limit to how many times we can enter?

Good question, goldenspines. We've traditionally just done one entry apiece, but I've never heard anything about doing additional entries, most of us are too pressed for time to do more than one. Guess we'll see what Vernhal says.

WOW.. Yah... this has never come up before has it....

Or maybe it did a while ago before I started entering!

Heres what we will do. For this month it will be just one entry! not to say you can't color the lineart twice but you have to pick the best one as the one you enter!

and this month we will get everyones opinions on multiple entries and decide on an official rule for next month ^_^

so yah... how do you all feel about multiple entries?

Well, I might as well post my entry, I've got nothing to lose.
I was trying to think outside the box on this one, so I hope it qualifies as coloring.
So here is my attempt that was killed by being a jpeg. Is there anyother format that would make it look better?

Cool! It almost reminds me of one of those Light-Brite things! That's a really cool idea! :D

*fails in comparison*

(Aww, that isn't failing. I personally think you did the wings better than I - I simply made them pinkish and blended them because I was too lazy to do some actual shading. Plus I like the way you shaded the whatever-it-is-she's-wearing (wrap, is it? I have no clue when it comes to clothes), especially the top part, the one that's bright red. You make it look like it's leather, or something to that effect, with the highlights.)

there is nothing "fail" about that! you hear? yes it is very nice! You've shaded everything wonderfully!

Actually, SC, that's really neat! I love what you did with the background!

And Rii, I don't really know what she's wearing, either. XD; Well, I mean, I know what it looks like and the basic way it works, but I wouldn't know what to call it. XD

Nice entries. Wow...not only does it seem that soft shading is 'in' right now, but everyone's going super fast with submissions. :wow!: Well, I don't want to be left behind! Here's mine, albeit with slightly harder shading.
