*phew* I've been so busy lately making my ygo t-shirts http://temni-chan.deviantart.com/art...USEI-107127492 that I hadn't checked menewsha at all until today, sooo far behind in the event I'll have to work extra hard to catch up!

anyway:
Looking for free art of yourself, or your OC? have a character that belongs to a story or a site that wants more recognition? well this is your opportunity to request for your avatars/OCs to feature in my manga.

FAQ:

WHAT?! you're stealing my character?!

no way, I wouldn't do that. What I would do, however, is when the manga is posted on the internet to name all OC characters featuring on the page and who they belong to, including (if given) a link to any sites or galleries or persons who own them

Can I request for my friend's OC to feature in the manga?

eh...best to ask their permission first

When/where/will I see this manga?

in the next post I will supply a PM alert list where you can either state whether you wish to be alerted as to when the manga comes online and/or when your OC/avatar is featured on a page, and a link to said page.

Will you include everyone?

I'm afraid that as the artist I am free to refuse to draw characters/avatars I feel do not fit within scenes or my manga

What are you offering?

Your character/avatar to be in my manga as an extra. either as miscellaneous members of crowds or standing behind characters

Is this really free?

donations are always welcome however money is not required to put your avatar/character in my manga and will not make your characters more favoured than anyone elses

What's the catch?

I am hoping to one day sell my manga, however all details of any OCs and Avatars (like who they belong to) will be on the back page

How much progress have you made with this 'manga?'

First chapter is already inked and scanned, and only has to be re-inked and toned on computer. Second chapter is inked, still some small edit-tations left to do before it is scanned and re inked. the third chapter is well into the planning stage

the FAQ is subject to change.

#1: intro
#2: PM alert list
#3: form

Hi all! =D my friend asked me to help manage her thread since people were flooding her once when she posted a similar thing on gaia! but enough about that, this is the info for the PM alert list

THE PM ALERT LIST

this is a list of all people who wish to be alerted as to when either the manga or the manga page featuring their character/avatar comes onto the internet. Or if you just want to be alerted as to when the manga comes online

you are now very free to post!

like ramble said, time to post ^^

So... no robots or yes robots?

All of my OCs are robots, so... yeah... if they're not allowed, then, it's likely that I'd not. I've not really decided either way, but I figured before I take time to decide who/what/etc, I should at least get a feel for the timeframe/setting.

Name*:
OC/Avatar name/s you wish to feature in the manga*: Rose Marie
short (<250 words) description of your character/s:
Rose is very old fashioned and proper but still very young. She works in a bakery/chocolate shop and is into a Victorian/steampunk look. She likes do it yourself things and is very independent. She enjoys making new recipes and making new friends. She also likes having adventures and seeing new places. When she is embarrassed by something, such as something raunchy she escapes it by planning out tommorrow's bakery specials or ETC.
do you wish to be credited (and therefore on PM alert list)*:
if not, do you want simple credit? (a character on this page belongs to___)*:Simple credit would be fine.
any character references (post links not pictures to keep length of pages short)*:
Ref one
Ref two
Ref three
Ref four
I don't have many single pictures of my Avi so for the couple pictures I have listed as References you can just see how my Char/Avi is drawn.

Edit - I have some more art made of her,

one
two

wow a very nice OC rose marie! =D

Thank you, Im sure when people come back from Christmas there will be a lot of entries here. *hopes she still has a chance when that happens, LOL*

everyone gets recorded, and then when I need extras I'll pick people's oc's from the list that I think suits the scene =D eg. I'm not going to have a robot in feudal japan xD

Intriguing.

I'll give it a shot.
OC/Avatar name/s you wish to feature in the manga*: Her name is the same as here, Claudia.

short (<250 words) description of your character/s:
do you wish to be credited (and therefore on PM alert list)*:
My char is loosely based on RL person. She has a cat rescue. This is mostly for domesticated cats, though she'll take in exotics when she can.
I imagine her being a self confident person with a "big heart" for abused and homeless cats. She 'll have very little patience for abusers and give them what's coming to them. The rescue keeps her busy most of the time, though she's not above having some fun for herself once in a while.
She's disabled/ in a wheelchair.
Not sure if I can post links, I have a picture I drew of her.



does your character belong to a book/manga/internet/etc. series you wish to have named*: Yes she belongs to a much larger series I've had going a few years and need a title for.
does this have a site? (if so, include)*:
do you want your menewsha/gaia/online name to be known? (if so, which one?)*:
any extra information you wish to include: Not sure.

hey, what a cool idea yo!

just upload the picture to photobucket or something Claudia ^^ your character might do well for the part of "random window person No.2"

yosh! we're glad you think so

wow, we currently have a lot more people than when we did it during halloween

oh heck yeah, how's the manga coming?

a liiiiiitle slow. hours just seem to pass me by and not much gets done. especially now that I'm back to doing chores ~_~;; and now cosplay! D: also I have to change the text for one of the pages to make the plot make more sense down the road, which therefore the DUNDUNDUNNNNNN moment I was building up to now has to be taken out because it won't fit

*sigh*

OMG have you found a way you can tone your pages? D:

Just pace yourself, carpal tunnel really hurts. *has two fingers numb from it*

since (if I want to get them printed) they have to be at 300 DPI I can only do the lineart o.o;; my main comp can't handle big files (or much of anything, really) and it takes 3 hours instead of 1 and a half to colour even a portion of the page, imagine toning!

Here is a link which explains it better than I can. If you use the computer too much or have a job that requires you to type all day you could develop carpal tunnel.
