So there are the final twenty....they are the best group of artists I've seen together in a competition yet. We really took alot of time deciding who should be invited or accepted via Open Entry. I feel that we made only good decisions and it will make PC2 all the better. If you would like to know the Judges, here they are
List of Judges in PC2
- Black Rayquaza-Host/Creator of Project Custom, Head Judge, Trainer Pass™ Inventor, Leader of Team Custom, and Owner of the Custom Company, a shop in the Fan Creations Section.
- Aqua Smeargle-Leader of Artisan Cave: Home to the Smeargles of PokeBeach and Great Art Mind of Pokebeach.
- Bellomence-Last Years Project Custom Champion! An amazing art mind and artist
- Gamercal-Fanfic Author on Pokebeach and one of Black Rayquaza's best friends and raters.
- Sarjent_Tankian-Served as a backup judge and proved himself to judge regularly in PC2!
- James-An Amazing Scratch Artist who studys graphic design in school and is one of my best friends and raters.
Well, as some of you probably know, this competition will be held mainly on my forums. We were thinking of fully moving it to a thread here, but thought of a better idea. I will be upkeeping a thread here on Beach that will be updated with news and info when it happens. Sort of like a commentary. If you would like to see everything that goes on, you can
Register here. All Artists and Judges will also be required to register as thats where the competition is taking place. If theres a problem, please PM me.
We've thought of some new ideas for PC2 and this one I think is the best. Last Season we saw alot of people checking the thread out and enjoying the art, but that was about it. We really wanted to get the fans into it this season, so now we are offering a Popular Vote :] Heres how it will work:
After all the art is turned in for that challenge, you are allowed to PM me a vote for who you think should should Win the challenge. After all the Art is submitted, you have ONE day to PM me your vote. (Either here or on my forums) After that time is gone, I will tally up the votes. The Artist with the best popular vote will count as +1 In the Judges Vote. We do come across ties quite a bit, so you guys really have the chance to influence the game and help us decide whos the best :]
So theres the basic info I was talking about....now onto the announcements.
1st Announcement-PMJ, who was the Favorite Judge last Season wanted me to tell you guys he's sorry for not being able to give any Pimpin' Scores this time around....as you know, hes a very busy guy and just dosent have the time. As a respected friend and artist, hopefully we can get him back in a future competition.
2nd Announcement-We are having a little "Meet and Greet" Kickoff Show June 1st, 2008 at 9 PM EST on my forums (In a Chat Box o course) to kinda have a chance to meet some of the judges and artists and fans of PC! It will be a causal event (Guys, that means polo shirts xD) in which we will be explaining rules and giving you guys a little taste of what Its gonna be like, as well as a little talk about the challenges :] Everyone is welcome to come, so hopefully we'll have a good turnout!
Feel free to post here or PM me for any questions or concerns
Thanks,
