Ok the rule are the same.
- One character.
- No background. Character need to take up 80% of the image, clothing or object(s) the character is interacting with are counted as the character.
- No character story or explanation just the drawing. A title can be added.
- Characters will be posted together on the 20th of April 9:00am EST.
- When Character are posted there are to be no names on the image, so judges do not which image is owned by who.
- WIP are to be posted after voting. 27th of April 9:00am EST.
One add rule. I wanted to do my concept for the CgTalk comp, kill two birds with one stone. Oh three birds really, this image will also be in my art exhibition. After tell Joel this he said that he would be happy to keep in side these guide line also, so the character will if into this outline.

Flesh is weak and easily destroyed. Imagine a world where damaged body parts or any vital organs (even eyes!) can be totally replaced with working mechanical parts. Imagine that a body can be enhanced via bizarre and even terrifying medical procedures to incorporate mechanical elements - whether it is purely for the sake of empowering the individual for easier survival, or whether it is designed for war.
These additions to the body could elevate the individual to a higher level of existence, enabling him or her to adapt to new - even alien - environments in specific ways, to withstand disease and bodily harm, to perform new, previously-impossible feats, to adopt disguise or unusual camouflage... or maybe live indefinitely?
Could it be that they have a different purpose altogether? Perhaps they were forced upon the individual for punishment or torture? They could be designed specifically to place the person in a permanent state of pain, to keep them under tight control - living a life with the unwanted intrusion of mechanical instruments in their bodies that limit their movement or freedom - or even keep them in a static position of suffering.
Do you want to enhance the lives of individuals, or crush their freedom and punish them?
---------
This should be a good duel, will I be able to step up and take the second win, or will Joel become the new campion?? What do you all think??
Other note:
For those of you think that I maybe starting the CgTalk comp a little late I have made a petty big start on it, I will be posting on CgTalk after the concept is done.
well it's all kinda screwed around, but that's fine -- time was a problem for both of us, so I respect that; I wouldn't of been able to produce much either if it wasn't for doing it within my study time.
Here's what I did -- didn't finish, didn't really wanna [:)]

Nice work man, very nice, does have the brom touch which works well with dark cyberstuff. I like the idea of the harsh cyber-gear, very painful but then you can have an implant to turn off that pain can't you![:p] If I had do nit-pick I would say the ring thing on her thigh could use a shadow cos at the moment it looks to be floating. I'll hold off a day or two to see if doord can squeeze more hours out of his day, before giving a final verdict. Unfortunantly I think JI has to be crowned because the competition does work on a time limit. I still wouldn't mind seeing your base concept Doord! Please![:)]
The fanboy union watches with interest ;)
good luck to both of you
