Title: Thousandth post - Careful, competition inside
Post by: Wyz on Tue 26/11/2013 01:12:23
I'm back and guess what, this is my thousandth post! Yaaay! This calls for something special; I want to do a competition of some sort, something original. First a bit of a teaser:

Has it ever happened to you on the internet that you have known someone for years but never actually seen this person? What do you think he or she looks like, have you pictured this? Is this image you have anything like what this person really looks like? Are there any hints apart from an actual image, does someones character somehow corresponds to their looks? This is something I've been wondering for years and this calls for an experiment!

Well this is where the competition comes in! But first we need a willing subject... well...(roll) Me! Yes, I've never posted a picture of me here and I guess I've been around long enough for people to know me. If not I'll be around now. ;)

So the competition: Get your pencils/paint/computer/crayons/whatever ready and draw/paint/pixel/whetever what you think I look like! You'll have two weeks and after that I'll post an actual picture. Then it's time to vote which of the entries you think resembles the most; the entry that gets the most votes wins, simple as that! Both the competition and the vote are open to everyone.

As for the winner: well I've got something special in mind but I'm still working out the details otherwise it will be just for kicks.

Good luck! :-D

- Wyz

Ps.
Since this is not an offical competition I've posted it here.

Pps.
Please don't cheat. Besides, if you'll google my real name you'll find some other dude so that won't work. But that's not what it's about to begin with.

Ppps.
This will be a weird experience..., why have I committed to this again? Oh right Pixelhunt, I know you'll read this folks, thanks for talking me into this,[size] oh well: for science! ;)

I genuinely thought you were drunk when you suggested this competition haha. Never mind!

Anyways...

(I'm actually pretty sure you don't wear glasses but it looked funnier this way - but short dark hair and beard, that's what I'm going for).

Bonus points if you can animate a sprite of how you think WYZ looks and walks, make sure to voice act it to show the way you think he talks also.

You shouldn't have said you didn't draw them, 'cause otherwise I wouldn't have even suspected. Regardless, the pictures are wonderful so I think they're still valid submissions.

I like the style of Snake's pic.
It is really cool,
but noavana's looks more similar to Wyz,
so my vote goes to her.  (nod)  :cheesy:
