Hi All -

I have created a contest page for this contest rather than have it in the Galleries as I feel this will be easier for everyone.

Please click Here to access the contest page.

Thank you and have a wonderful day

Yes, that should be better, but the "Description" doesn't link to the contest details, as I expected.

I re-uploaded the file...sorry about that

Sounds like fun and right up my alley, but I have a ton of questions! Are we allowed to use existing trademarked characters or do we invent our own? And do they actually have to be a superhero or can they be a comic book/game/sci-fi character or one that we create that don't have actual super powers, but fit in that genre by their wardrobe, or weapons, etc...? Is manga/anime included? Or if they're a bad guy, are they still a hero? Can they be aliens and/or creatures? Sorry for all the questions LOL! I sell my art at comic book conventions so the possibilities for this seem endless! Thanks.

Hi Wonderland

You can use existing characters or create your own Superhero. They do have to be a Superhero or a character that would fit the theme.

If the bad guy has a superpower and you would want to be him, that would be okay as well. They could be a creature with a superpower or a "super human" power such as "super human strength". "Thing" from Fantastic Four is more of a creature with "super human" strength.

I think it's very cool that you sell your art and look forward to seeing what you create.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Oh, I didn't realize it had to be yourself! That changes everything LOL. I'm pretty sure I'll create my own character cause I'm kind of sick of "Fan" art. Now to come up with an original superpower...

. They do have to be a Superhero or a character that would fit the theme but yes, they must have a superpower of some sort.

Hmmm. So that excludes Batman? From Wikipedia: "Unlike most superheroes, Batman does not possess any superpowers; rather, he relies on his genius intellect, physical prowess, martial arts abilities, detective skills, science and technology, vast wealth, intimidation, and indomitable will." Or is he a "character that would fit the theme"?

I think Ironman only has powers because of his suit too, right?

Just remember you have to state who you would be and why

This isn't clear in the contest rules page. It just says your description must say what software you used and how long it took.

Yes, that is correct. Without his suit he is just a man

I edited my statement as I forgot I took that out of the rules.

Thank you for pointing that out

Ahhh! I'm excited you guys are having a contest, but why aren't you advertising it on the front page? Like as a slide in that overly massive banner at the top or even as a smaller item below? I had no idea there was a contest at all...and I really want to enter!

I thought it was on there to be honest. I will have to get with our Marketing Manager to have them put it on there however they will not be around until Monday.

Thank you for letting us know it was not on there.

You still have time t enter

No problem! Happy to help. I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. The more people who know, the more people who might enter!!

Absolutely!! Thank you again

What does the super hero prize pack include?

It really depends on what place one would get as to which items they get.

There are some comic books, a blanket, playing cards, etc.

This is why I just listed it as a "superhero prize pack".

Thank you,

Oh ok I had a member ask me what prize pack meant....

Those are some fantastic entries.

Thank you demiurgent, I think all the entries are wonderful!

Good luck to you all
