There is a contest that has been going for a full month that I became aware of tonight.

 Archir is running a character contest with fairly simple rules...

here is his journal entry where he talks all about it....

Basically you just have to make a color pic of one or both of his characters...
Of course the characters are no comparison to something so simple as ADJL fan art or some such *LOL*

Check it out..

But yeah.. deadline is december 1... I have a sketch so rough its barking... and a day job :(

I probably wont finish, but its worth a try.
