I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

KingStrongBeard, I might have something for you at some point. Is there a time you are planning the encounter and need the picture by? I'm working on finishing a old beast right now so I probably won't start it quite yet.

Well, at the rate my players are moving they might take 2-3 weeks or so to get to the planned encounter, so I'm in no real hurry.


Had a doodle at your beast, KingStrongbeard, buuuut midway through I took a turn for the super derpy, heheh. Probably won't fulfil your purpose very well.

Ha. Well, no, not exactly useful for my purposes, but I love it anyway, thanks a lot strongrudder.

I have a FB called Oxo Tunneltyphoon the Cat of Evil.

It's a leech. Not a cat, or even an ox, but a leech. It's hairy, but it's still a leech. It also has skin-wings, so I can't see how it was mistaken for a cat.



Anyone want to draw an idiot (aka a dorf) mistaking this thing for a cat?

Urist, light up another torch. Mine went out again....
[spoiler]

Btw what happned to the challange? Everything stopped when i left again?

Well, we gotta get this going again.^^

For those who haven't taken part before-
1. It's not the "best" piece of art that wins rather the most sick and twisted, nightmarish interesting. Otherwise us mere mortals wouldnt stand a chance aginst the likes of Deforo :P
2. There is no voting simply because that system kept killing the thread :C
The winner of the previous round starts his round by posting the description of a beast and after about a week or so he choses the new winner. Simple.
3.Post anything you want regardless of your artistic skills. The more the merrier ^^
4. Much appreciated if you were to disregard any gramatical or factual errors due to my heavily intoxicated state.

Let's say next guy to post a desc. starts it off?

Alright, here is my attempt at the leech.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Note that I tried to make him have poisonous gasses.

Also, slowpokez, I don't know if people are still using the contest idea, but if someone posts a description of a cool beast I'll try to draw it.

EDIT: Freshmaniscoolman, I draw with pencil and I use photoshop for coloring, but I am still very noobish, so it may be best to pay me no attention :P.

Yea, most of that stuff is for earlier versions. Gotta learn through trial and error  :P

Well, naturally the idea crossed my mind but I don't have Df installed atm. Let's see what lucky bastard gets a freebe, eh? ;D

Very cool, thanks. I still wonder why they think that's a cat LOL

Dude that thing is jacked up. Reminds me of No-Face from spirited away a little.

As for the contest...It doesn't matter to me. Whatever folks want to do if coo. I know I saw some people saying that they wanted to do away with the contest. I would say to go on ahead with the contest and if people want to participate they can and if not they can just post drawings or whatever.

In addition, people that are participating in the thread (not necessarily the contest, it doesn't matter) could add the current contest rules to their signature so that new people can easily see whats up.

I'mma add it to mine as an example.
