Mad With Power art challenge!
Heya peeps.
This challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to make a piece of Nightcrawler-themed fanart that describes this phrase:
Be careful what you wish for... you might just get it
Here are the details:
1. Feel free to attach your entry to this thread, in .jpg or .gif format, under 40kb.
2. This isn't a Kurt-Ororo contest - I'm running it as mod of this forum, not as webmistress of T&B. You can be relationshippy or single, funny, solemn, ridiculous, whatever. Just be creative!
3. The deadline is November 3.
4. There'll be several "winners," but only one prize, for "best in show." I may bring in some other judges or start a poll to choose the winner (TBA).
5. The prize for "best in show" - a custom pixel-art avatar to your specifications!
Have fun!

Wee! done! Way to quick. It's a bit shoddy quality in my opinion. But it was one of those I'm inspired moments and being hungry and tired at the same time doesn't help.

I'm loving what I'm seeing so far. I think there's some confusion on the theme though.
To clarify for everyone, the phrase, "be careful what you wish for, you might just get it" is sort of... a warning. It means that you may think you want something very, very much, but if your wish were to come true, you might find out that it isn't what you wanted.
So, it could be something like Roze's piece, where Kurt discovers having a Dad isn't as great as he thought it would be... or it could be Kurt wishing he could cool off and being turned into a block of ice by Bobby ("that's not what I meant, you cold-hearted snake!" )... you get the idea?
Hope that helps people in their inspiration.

Hhmmm, what would Kurt wish for?
How about a loving wife and a happy family?! In these enlightened times, why should his wife have to give up her superhero career? Someone's got to do the harder job - taking care of the kids

*attaches herself to the little bow girl and squeees* Bluefooted, you are so CUTE! I love the attention to detail with the striped socks and frumpled little dress. She got a name?
I've left the board. Friends know where to find me

Oh my goodness, bluefooted, that seals it. I can't be the only judge of this contest because I love that illustration too much. It's simply incredible how you've captured the scene. I must have it for T&B, too. It's magical.
Kurtlover, the piece you submitted is beautiful, but it doesn't talk about the theme at all. So feel free to make another entry if you want to!

*pant* The tail... Tying pretty ribbons on the tail.... That's just too much, honey. That's priceless. The kid playing "daddy" with the cape in the background is great, but tying pretty ribbons on the tail...

Eek! Bluefooted, that is so much better than mine! Poor Kurt, he actually looks exhausted! And the baby... reminds me of my younger sister when she was that age... what a mess... *squeals and runs off*

I'm sorry Maddie but you SO have a winner already - Bluefoot, that is insanely good! I'm just waiting for him to look up, eyes welling, and say something like "you never bring me flowers any more, do you... you never compliment me.... you TAKE ME FOR GRANTED!!" etc..
Mad With Power art challenge!
I'm sad that I can't seem to come up with a single worthy idea. I will jump on the bandwagon, though, and say that I think bluefooted's drawing is adorable.
Argh! If only I had an idea!

It was a late night for Kurt, later than usual, after a grueling mission that included chemical exposure. He's sacked out on the couch in the rec room and some kid crawled down to watch cartoons at Oh-God-Thirty on a Saturday morning. Of course, he does it in front of Kurt, who never wakes up for stuff like this. The little sadist left it on while he got cereal, and My Pretty Pony came on.
The combination of chemical exposure, a "why can't my life be less hectic" wish, and My Pretty Pony on the TV can be a strange and potent mixture...

Kaileighblue, your pic rocks. Everyone looks so cute in the MLP theme, hehe. I'm so amused by that.
And like Snicket, I'd be all over this is I could just think of a decent idea. *sigh*

I have an idea, and I'm working on it. I got a late start (I've been out of town) but there ain't no way it's going to beat Bluefooted's pic. I might just put it up for kicks.
Bluefooted, looove the bows on his tail! Guess the wedding wasn't called off after all. Every time I think you've outdone yourself...

BAHAHAHA! You people are so creative. I'm so impressed with the quality of the submissions so far. Now that I have an idea of the rate that they may come in, I've set a deadline of November 3rd, and updated the first post.
Mad With Power art challenge!
Bluefooted... HILARIOUS art, as always. Just georgeous!
I'll take my stab at it, it'll probably be more solemn, tho. I'll post here when I'm done!

I think Bluefooted and Kaileighblues pictures are equally insanely cute, I love the baby crawlers, and I definatly love the X-ponies.

OMG Kaileigh I absolutely love the My Little X-Ponies pic! It's just way to creative, never would have expected it. And all the ponies just fit their counterparts so well ( Sammy sea-pony, love it)! I'd just love to see some of the rest of the cast as ponies now. What an idea for an online comic that would be! LOL
Adore yours too bluefooted! The expressions on the faces of your characters are to die for and your style is just so much fun! And Roze I love the premise of yours, it’s just too funny! Judges are going to have a dang hard time choosing who’s going to win. Sure glad I'm not a judge, I'd just be like "And everybody wins cause we've all got these great pics to look at now whooo!".
