Default Iron Avatarist -- Pirates

Welcome to...
[glow=red,2,300]Iron Avatarist[/glow]


I'd like to introduce you to our judges...
[tr][td][/td][td][/td][td][/td][td][/td][td][/td][/tr][tr][td]Roland St Jude[/td][td]Sneak[/td][td]Tin Soldier[/td][td]The Vorpal Tribble[/td][td]Tomb Raven[/td][/tr]

Today's theme is pirates. *Any kind at all! (Including the internet kind.)

You may also have characters from OotS cosplay (dress up) as pirates.

And of course, there is going to be a First through Third place of the following:

Best miscellaneous pirate
Best OotS character dressed as a pirate
Best OotS group picture as pirates

and, of course, Best Overall

And don't forget the Wukei's Choice Award to the avatarist's creation that most appeals to your host.

Every entry must include a bolded introduction as to what category you are trying to enter in.

IE
Best Miscellaneous Pirate


Only the avatarist who created the avatar may submit it.
However, you may submit old creations. *It does not have to be something made specifically for this thread.

All entries must be completed by Monday, July 17th, at 12 am EST. *That is Sunday evening, Monday morning at midnight.

Before we started IA up I asked four definites if they wanted to be on the panel. They said yes. We also have one guest judge that is an artist himself. Now, Sneak may want off the panel every once and a while to be in competition himself. But he rarely does avatars anymore.

Since when do you need intelligence for it? I could do it when I was 8

Well I wouldn't think Thog would even know how to log on to the Internet. Or switch on a computer for that matter.


Wukei, I had no idea your character was supposed to be a pirate, even though I drew it ;). This goes under Miscellaneous Pirate then.

Dispozition, that Mal is great. I recognize it now after having watch Serenity.

One of my favorite conversations:

"Do you want to run this ship?"
"Yes!"
"....well, you can't!"

Best Miscellaneous Pirate



And a bit late, I suppose, but I thought there should be a contest for Famous Pirates (Fictional or nonfictional), cuz I kinda wanted to do Vyse.

Miscellaneous just sorta covers everything. I basically wanted the contest to be OotS or non-OotS for the simplicity. I really took it out of my judges with the last contest having 7 categories.

I don't know if we'll have any OotS group entries...but it'd be nice.

Not necessarily. I love my avatar, but it's not my obvious choice. Of course, this'n'll be hard for me since I'm a pirate fanatic.

I guess it's one entry per category, right?

Here's mine for Best Misc. Pirate:


I'll have one for at least one of the OOTS ones, but just not yet....
