Comics and random art battles (Crab)>>>/ic/7893494Start Date: May 17th>What is it?A tournament where you can create comics starring matchups featuring your character vs your opponent>How do we playYou'll be placed on a team and pitted up against a new opponent for 3 roundsEvery round you'll make a comic(Or random art) against your opponents artIf that sounds up your alley, then step right up
>How do I join?To join draw your contender defeating Houndclops in 3 pages or more
Multiple rounds making 3 sets of comics? "That's a lot of work, I need to catchup on my beauty sleep instead" I totally understand>I prefer to spectate or just vote if time allowsFeel free to enter a character to be a spectatorIf you'd like to vote on entries and decide the fate of contestantsYou'll need to do the following> Required drawings featuring your character reacting to your favorite entry of the round, must include the featured crabs of that round in the drawing itself.>Reviews of every match in the round. Could be a few sentences but should demonstrate you --read/engaged with the entry and be made in good faith.extra caveats>No luck-based vote casting, such as spinning a wheel or flipping a coin to choose. This will invalidate the ballot.>Only one abstaining vote allowed per-ballot. If multiple abstains are placed then this will invalidate the ballot.>Votes must be submitted in an official turn-in point, be it the 4chan threadAs a spectator if your character catches one of the contender's eyes you may have them show up in the background of one of the entries depending on how active you are perhaps even a side story or storyline could be in the works.The choice is yours
Additionally if you do want to be a contestant but miss the May 17th date you can join as a waitlist spot (a bencher) to substitute for contestants who drop or go radio silent for the tournament. This happens every year so bench characters are vital for keeping teams viable during the tourney run.Waitlisted participants won't be sitting on their hands during the tourney, they get their own prompts to do per-round that they get 1-3 points for finishing that go to their medal totals for when they replace a dropped contestant. Replacing a dropped contestant doesn't change a waitlisted contestant's prompt so you don't have to worry about changing anything you were working on (unless you want to).[blank ref template for character sheets for any interested]
>>832006Hey, Clovis or whoever is in charge, Can I join in? I'm Ririna anon but I won't play with a loli or join the main Discord.This is my character Saki. She's a 21 years old adult so shouldn't offend anyone if she gets naked.I wouldn't be doing this, but my thread on /qst/ just died and I need something else to draw.Yes/No? Do it fast if possible and I'll fuck off, at least until Cityverse becomes GM.
>>832010Hi Ririna-anon, good to see ya again. You're free to join as long as you do the three-page 'defeat Houndclops' prompt. Thread-only is fine, we have another contestant who's also thread-only.

>>832220
>>832073>>832296Thanks for the drawings, anon. Seeing a character like Saki in such an elegant style is great.
Anybody have recommendations for Dealing with The Grind™ of making art? The deadline is soon and I'm like 80% done with this project. the last 20% is killing me to even look at!! I don't want to work on this but I'm SO close to finishing this on time I know I can make it if I put the effort into finishing it. How do you put up with it? What makes it easier to manage?
>>832303Post some of it here, you'll feel better.
>>832303I imagine a tiger will kill me if I can't finish on time. The tiger stares at me if I decide to do anything else so I have to make more pages or it'll kill me.
>>832303Its a struggle for sure, you just gotta do it. For me I just gotta limit distractions, if I have youtube on I aint drawing to my max, just music with no words helps me.I've been building a habit to draw or do something creative everyday, no matter how big or small and for my bigger projects I just do something small in it liek text or speech bubbles and if your in the right mind set you're likely to keep going. BUT all this advice really boils down to you just gotta do it, randos on the net aint gonna do that for ya.
>>832288>"With only two days away, our fighters are getting ready for the fight of their lives!">"That's right, Ann! And the ultimate prize of any wish you could ever want is up for grabs! So, tell me, Barbara! What would you wish for!?""*Hic!* well... Lilybug, I-I'd wish for a lifetime supply of *urp!* ...w-wine!"
The crabs find ways to entertain themselves before the tournament begins!

>>832220>>832297>>832447You're all in Mimi! Three pages fulfilled! Would you like to be thread-only or would you like to be in the Discord?
>>832399her teeth piss me off
>>832451Give me the link to discord
>>832457https://discord.gg(Break)/bD9guDdx
My good friend introduced me to this contest about 5 days ago so I reckon it’s a good time to introduce you to my absolute unit, 17ling (seventeen-ling). I am submitting the last 3 pages of my comic for now due to it being unfinished, but I do hope you all get a kick out of it nonetheless.
And the third page where this fucker gets slimed out! I should mention this is my first time ever posting on this website, so I’d appreciate if you’d let me know if there’s a more ideal way to post my submissions!
>>832460>>832461>>832462That does definitely count as overcoming the Houndclops! You also did fine, everything was posted in order. 17ling may enter the tournament! Now, would you prefer to be a thread-only or would you like to join the CRAB Discord?
I’d like to be thread only. The thread is all 17ling needs to get to beat-a-bitch-up-boulevard.
>>832464Sure thing, hope you enjoy it!

>>832705While the entrance for full-time competitor has been closed, you can still be on the bench as a substitute in case a CRAB drops out.Just make a comic of your OC beating Houndclops >>832007 and make a ref sheet using >>832009
>>832703She dosen't, she was just scared.
How to join the discord?
Sakibro! It's me, Blossom-anon. The teams are set seen here: >>>/ic/7948784. We're on the same team. Am going to reach you through some channels to try and have some routes of communication.
Is Mimi-anon here? I am Zakal-anon and you've been assigned to my team. I was wondering if it's possible for you to join the team Discord server for ease of communication, you don't have to be in the main one for the record.
>>832758Send me a Discord invite for the team chat if you can find me there or message me on NG.
>Puppets and Dolls involvedDamn... maybe I should've joined this year's CRAB....
>>832723Is it possible for you to join the team Discord server for easier communication between us? We're deciding on a name for our team and are doing the team showcase as well.
>>832817I already joined
