ENTRIES: CONCEPT ART AND SHORT FICTION
Hallo again, Tev! :3
This time, I got two entries, and my last. I'm not going to look at my story again for a while. I know I'll have made some silly typo or mistake and I won't be able to fix it. xD I suppose my drawing is okay, but I should really have stuck to my pencil. Anyways.
In-Game Name: Remiliaoftheearth
Entry Title: Guardian Battle Armour
Entry: Here
Didn't have time to do any fancy status bars, so I'll just type it out here.
All: 5-6 bars of normal defense; half a bar of other damage types defense and half a bar of all status resist, except curse and sleep which are -3. Guardian Strike Armour gives Charge Time Reduction: Low and Damage Bonus: Low for swords, and Charge Time Increase: High and Damage Reduction: High for other weapons. Guardian Aim and Blast are the same, only in favour of their weapons (gun and bomb).
As for colour themes, Strike would be divine or military, Aim regal, and Blast dusky.
(Note: Since this is what the Wings Squad wears in my story, I was considering entering it in Character Drawings and Paintings (the junior section, of course); but I decided this fits it more.)
Oh yes, and the descriptions. My mind is dead, so would it be okay if I added them in tomorrow? I'm guessing the answer is no. :P So I'll just leave them out. Either they'd have multiple references to my story, or they'd be completely random. Neither of which really works.
/e pants and gasps for breath, before continuing.
Entry Title: Guardians of the Spring Realm
Entry: Here
....sorry it's so long ._.
....and the epilogue was kinda rushed....
I do hope I don't give you a headache xD
Wish I could watch this till the end, but myself is telling me (I mean I'm telling myself no that's not right) that I need some sleep. Won't be able to enter that mini contest, but I hope to send you a couple more trivia and an explanation of that event I thought up tomorrow.
G'night Tev! ^^
EDIT:
So I went and forgot the illustrations for the story, among other things. Tev gave me permission to link them, so here they are.
The Left Squad's first visit to the Sanctuary and of course, The Wings Squad in the Spring (the first one needed some adjustment, but since I lost the scene, I can't a) put in the background or b) change the torches to a warmer colour. Eh, still gets the picture across)
Thank you so much, Tev! :D

o.O
Hold on a darn second. You said EST/GMT -5, the time there is... 10:46 and you said the contest ends at 11:59... unless.. Okay, 1.9? Since I last posted (since I miscalculated, derp, I knew the EST time but I counted wrong, thus the woes of procrastination...) But I have around an hour... Don't I?!
Sat, 08/31/2013 - 20:55
#381
Ummm ...
I kinda' live in EST, so I'm pretty sure that every clock in my house is correct. Ten minutes. If you're somewhere outside the US, are you accounting for any Daylight Savings Times in your area that may be affecting your calculations?
EDIT: Dangit. I didn't realize that people outside the US refer to this as EDT during the summer. You can have the extra hour (but you really shouldn't have procrastinated until the last day >.>).

#384
Oh noes
You told us that you're in EST, and from the online clocks I'm looking at, EST is at 10:58 You must be on EDT Eastern daylight time! Dangit!!!! I know it is entirely my fault for not finishing yet, because you gave us much much much more time than I could ever ask for to submit this entry. I know I'm incredibly ignorant and rude for asking, but if I could have until 12:59 your time to finish, I would be content, because for some reason, I insist on procrastinating, but I really want to submit an entry. I don't even care if you don't give me a prize, a judging and 'fake placement' would be all I ask for, but I really did think that I had more time... I'm sorry for making a huge mess out of this, and just... darn Isora!!! Well, yeah, that's it, my final statement Dx

@Hexlash
Okay, since I didn't realize that it's often called something different elsewhere (we don't usually use the EDT label in the US), you can have the hour. But I'm going to go to bed in a few minutes and will catch your entry in the morning.

So I did go and look at my entry again, and not only did I forget to edit my title and add the extra word, I repeated a word (not only that, a sentence) in the first few paragraphs. /sigh

Can we vote for our selves?
@ also, i took my picture in a different lighting and the picture i second picture i took has more clarity and there's no key board when you look at it closely. I know you put the picture in better quality but i think people could see it better since lighting affects the photo.

MINI-CONTEST entry!
(Hehe, here it is! ^^)
-
"Do you sometimes feel like this knight?" A generic cobalt knight; fleeing a deadly flock of snipes.
"Do you feel left out, left behind, and generally unwanted and useless?"
"Well, suffer no more! With our top favourite beverage, used by the highest ranking knights of the Order, you will undergo a miraculous transformation!"
" That's right! The Core Juice company has officially opened sale of their famous Core Juices to the public! With this important event, we're also selling a special Core Juice Pack for a limited time! Samples of every one of our notorious Juices, for just one million crowns!"
"Here's a preview of the benefits that might be yours, with just one small transaction!"
"Our Gel Core Juice, the least of them all, and look what it can do!" A knight falls to a horde of Dust Bunnies, then, a glass floats down from above! With a sip of the life-saving liquid, the knight is on his feet and farewell to the Dust Bunnies!
"Our Toxic Core Juice, perfect for building up resistance to poison!" A knight, overwhelmed by Drouls, grasps a glass of this awesome beverage, and the numerous bubbles rising from him rise no more!
"Our Unstable Core Juice, for that little edge to your performance!" Lumbers have swarmed a knight, with her last breath she gulps down a fiery substance and brings the titans down in five seconds!
"Our Zee Core Juice, for those who are desperate to get some sleep!" A Guardian, after a day off, must reenter the fray the next day; but is too nervous. After a small cupful of the calming juice, he barely has time to reach his bed! "This proved so valuable, it's now in limited supply! Will you be one of the lucky knights to receive the last samples?"
"Our Rocky Core Juice, for something a little different!" A recon, sneaking behind a group of greavers, charges up her sword? Or her gun? No, a sip of the delicious liquid and it is her bomb that destroys the winged fiends!
"And, our Royal Core Juice, if you need that little boost to your confidence!" A knight, shaking and shuddering behind the barrier, handed a glass by her friend, is on the battlefield in moments, cutting and slashing his way to victory!
"Plus, these Core Juices are useful in any situation! Do you need to complete that tough level? Doubt yourself no more! Remember, the Core Juice Company is working for you!"
"Not only that! Contact us today and receive a free Royal Skewer! With the latest technology, those brittle barbs have been transformed into sharp daggers! Only at the Core Juice Company!"
"Remember, a mere million crowns and these knights can be you!" The cobalt knight from the beginning stands in the depths of the Firestorm Citadel, his sword in Vanaduke's back!
-
(By the way, in case anyone's curious, this came from a random scene I thought up about someone saying, "The Rocky Core Company! We lose our teeth, so you don't have to!" with proto/cobalt knights rolling around in agony, clutching their jaws.)

Entry Title: Clockwork Autumn
Entry: http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/5962/2ift.png
Told ya I'd be fast!
I tried to imagine what an autumn season would look like in the Clockworks, and what enemies and gear it could include. Because of it, I went all orange on this one! An autumn-ish Soul Jelly (just because it's my favourite monster), a badger (I've never seen anyone talk about it, is it new?), and a knight I used previously, "Hermit", with an autumn leafy aura and the fabled Mushroom Cap!
I had a blast making this, can't believe I finished it in 2 days!
(BTW, I have a 1057x787 version of this image, if a bigger resolution is requested)
