So because the Create a Sidekick contest was such a huge success, we've decided to run a contest at least once per year, and the time has come! This year the theme will be creating a villain.
GUIDELINES
Create a villain. You may create a silly, useless villain or someone more diabolical.
Draw your villain. This could be anything from a profile diagram to a splash page to a full out comic (we'd love a full out comic). Yes, you may use online generators or other alternate methods of producing the art.
E-mail your submission to Sidekickgirls@yahoo.com.
Submissions should be:
jpegs
Two files. One 740 pixels wide, for posting on the main page, and one 400 pixels wide for posting here in the forum. The files can be as long as you need to tell your story. Make sure your text is legible in both files.
A title and author name (whatever moniker you want used) included in the image, preferably at the top.
If you have a website or comic of your own that you would like to promote, include the web address in your image, preferably at the bottom.
Remember that the entirety of your entry must be contained in one image. Any text you want should be part of the picture submitted. Separate files with descriptions will not be considered.
Keep it clean...ish. We try to keep the comic around PG-13. Adult situations are ok. There should be no explicit nudity. Strong swearing should be censored.
Enter as many times as you like.
Deadline: December 1st, 2010.
Enough with the Rules, man! What do I get out of this?
All entries will be posted on the forum
The top three entries will be featured as a Wednesday update on the main page of the comic.
The grand winner will have their villain featured IN the comic. The exact nature of this guest shot TBD. It could be anything from a short appearance in one story arc to be permanently added as a minor character. We'll work with you on exactly how your submission will be featured.
In case anyone is wondering, yes, the rules are exactly the same as the create a sidekick rules. The contest will be run and judged on the same basic criteria.
Any questions, email us or post them here.
