All done and submitted!

Super excited (see: paranoid) about the competition! I REALLY hope all my images transferred ok =)

Looking forward to seeing what the competition brought to the table as well as what the judges thought of my work.

Good luck to everyone, thanks for the fun and the opportunity, Escapist, you guys rock tha house!

I'm really setting a record for late to the game, but I just found out about the contest last night, saw the deadline and automatically figured "No way in hell I have a shot." Then I starting thinking, which led to planning which led to scripting and I can't believe I'm doing this but I'm gonna try to push my luck and submit something even though I don't stand a chance. The question I have is on the deadline, is the deadline midnight on the 27th or will entries submitted on the 28th count? Basically trying to gauge the level of coloring I should do based on if I have 2 or 3 days. Sorry for the stupid question ^^;.

You have until 12pm(noon) on the 28th to submit. I believe that is Eastern time.

Thanks for the clarification! Time to go rob the corner store of all their Monster Javas since they don't have caffeine IVs to pump it directly into the blood stream. Already have my pencils done and 1/4 inked so it's not impossible, just crazy, kehehehe.

Just submitted mine as well, thus concluding a month of dedicated work. The odds are stacked so high against us all, though. Best of luck to everybody! I'm sure the winner will be someone who deserves it (although I wish it was me...theres always hope).

Just submitted mine too, at the very least it gave me a nice little project to work on for the last 2 weeks.

Good luck everyone.

Ours is submitted now, too.

Yet, now I am worried there might have been a glitch. Any way someone could check to make sure ours went through? Just so I am not scrambling at the last minute to correct the issue.

Good luck to everyone who submitted. I already feel as if we are in great company in this competition.

Yeah, chucked in my comic too. I can see a few first-time posters jumping into the forums, so I thought I'd get out the shadows and say hi too.

You could work on your comic so if you do end up winning you have some backup pages. That's what I plan on doing.
Totally second that.

Almost done, I have to finish painting a couple of things, fix the logo and I'm good to go! I just wish I hadn't wasted so much time with ME2 and AvP, the final quality would have been better...

We have a great community here and there may even be people who can draw and can't write. You never know until you ask. :)
Doesn't look like the creators of xkcd can draw, but that comic is one of the best out there. Great contest btw.
