Hmm, sorry there seemed to be some misinterpretations of the rules. As I stated:
Now comes round 3. Again, right after the deadline is over for the ink and color round, the manippers come in. You CAN'T manip your own work, so it has to be someone else's coloring job. The manip will have to be of the colored line art. It has to be as close to the original drawing w/colors as possible.
This means that as a manipper, you come in and look at all the colored and pencil versions of the theme. For example, let's say that I am just manipping, nothing else. Let's say there are 10 entries for the pencil round. And 12 entries for the colored round. But there are only 5 different pencil versions picked to be colored. And as a manipper, I liked the way Joe Smith drew his pic in the pencil stage, but no one colored his drawing. I can still manip this drawing. So, what I'm saying is that even if a drawing doesn't make it to the 2nd round of coloring, you can still pick it to manip.
You will NOT be manipping OVER the existing pencil drawing or colored versions. Those will only be guides, references for you. Imagine you are manipping a cover to a comic. You can use what ever tools are available to you. Franking, poser, hell if you want....go old school and cut some crap out of a Sears magazine and piece it together. LOL. Try to stay as close to the original drawing/colors as possible. This was just done in the last HM challenge I believe, manipping a comic cover...same principle.
I hope this better explains the rules, but if you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask. I must give credit to Morgan for basically coming up with this idea. I think this is a great challenge for several reasons, not the least of which, folks have been wanting some color in the contest. Plus this lets in the manippers to show us what they got. And if you are really talented....you can draw something, color something and manip something for the contest.
Again, the deadline is the 25th of April 2006 at NOON. IMMEDIATELY after, the color round will begin. You will have untile the 9th of May at NOON to finish that. IMMEDIATELY after that, starts the manip round, which will be due the 23rd of May at NOON. And, you guessed it, voting right after. We will hopefully have a poll up at that time. You will cast your vote for best pencils, best coloring and best manip. I will have to discuss the poll with the Mods or Heralds as they have control over that part.
GOOD LUCK guys and gals. Let's have some fun with this one.
