Thu Jun 4, 2009, 9:46 PM
This is an epic battle of survival, and YOU get to choose which side is victorious!
The Setup:</u>
The eternally bored "Powers That Be" have arranged to pit their fiercest creatures - the Dinos - against their intelligent ones - the Humans - to do battle on various planets across time and space.
As one of the creators of the planets where these battles will take place, YOU will have a hand in deciding which race will prevail.
Do you side with the Dinos, or do you side with the humans? Create the scenario to your liking!
The "Powers That Be" from there will then present 3 of the most entertaining duels in the universe to be remembered for all time.

DEADLINE IS AUGUST 15TH @ 9:00PM EST! 


WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED AUGUST 25TH! 

The Prizes:</u>

- 2nd place: a 3 month DA subscription plus 1 month journal feature
- 1st place: a 1 year DA subscription plus 1 month journal feature, and a signed copy of the Neozoic graphic novel by ~JKorim and myself
The "Powers That Be" - aka our panel of judges - :</u>

- the list of participants, thumbs of featured entries, and prize winner entries will be featured on a seperate news article once the judging process is over
A final word - In regards to the theme:</u>
This doesn't have to be set in prehistoric times. You're free to go
nuts on creature and character designs. You can have crazy situations like cowboys wrangling Velociraptors, hang-gliding ninjas ambushing a pterodactyl, armies of angry T-rexs against raging vikings.
Not that you can't use these ideas but the point is to be creative, be
imaginative and - more importantly -
have fun while you're at it. All the best!
Now I'm intrigued...
Fanart for Neozoic is optional.
Thank you and have a great day...
