So here’s the deal. I’ve always loved looking at those cheesy portraits taken usually in malls during the 1980s, if you’re friends of mine chances are you love them too. With that in mind, here’s the contest:
Draw or photograph a portrait of a villain as if they are having it done to give to family or something. They can be holding flowers, standing in front of a chair, have lasers behind them, have another picture of them on the top right corner…ANYTHING. As long as it looks like a bad portrait. It can be of just one villain, or a “family shot” made of several villains…whatever you want. The only rules are that it must look like a 1980s portrait, it must be a villain from comics/movies/television and it must be them in a nice pose.
Now what’s a contest without prizes? The winner will receive:
- A mixed CD
- Some photography prints
- A 2GB flash drive with all sorts of goodies inside
- A picture of the framed winning picture on my office desk
- Something else that I can’t think of right now.
And there will also be runner up prizes! And of course, the top…let’s say 20 will be featured on this site.
SPECIFICATIONS: All pictures must be Portrait size and in 300 dpi. Send your submission to wornoldhat@gmail.com by October 31th 2009
EDIT: FOR THOSE THAT AREN’T CONFIDENT IN THEIR DRAWING SKILLS, I WILL ALSO ACCEPT PHOTOS!
That’s it! Sound good? Awesome!
