Sorry that I suddenly disappeared, I was out of town for the weekend.
If it’s OK with Makross, I’d still like to honor my bounty with Billy - I mean, he ‘paid’ 250$ for it so i think he deserves getting two drawings ^^ Finishing Nel’s stick art is my priority though.
I’m kinda relieved that someone got that bounty too because I really don’t think I draw dogs well enough haha

Thanks for the Update! I was wondering what happened with those sticks.

It’s not very good like I forgot that Parasoul wields her umbrella with her right hand.<br>
I put an Egret and Toad wrestling in the background<br>
<br>
$10 for someone to draw this concept better please. Omit the Skullgirls vs Melee at the bottom and my apologizing in the corner from yours. Change whatever else you like to make it better, just keep the idea of Peach and Parasoul dueling with their umbrellas and the Egrets and Toads fighting in the background.</div>

I’m going to take this on, but I have a condition: If you like the final result (which won’t be <i>that </i>good, lol) please <i>do not</i> donate the money to the Skullgirls drive but instead use it to put up another bounty. This might sound like a strange request, but I’ve deliberately been staying impartial of the SG/Melee competition, and I don’t want people to use this as evidence of me being biased. The fact that this will contain characters from both games means I’m happy to do it, and you can then use the money for another bounty which someone else can fulfill.<br>
<br>
Also, I’m pretty slow, so if someone else wants to take the bounty up for the donation instead of me please feel free.</div>

Squigly is actually free, the $5 is called a pre-order cause you’re technically paying your part for her. The game is separate. But you should donate anyway for the cause. ^_^<br>

Neither.<br><br>Squigly is free whether you donate or not (for 3 months). It’s like you’re paying in advance for her if you do.<br>
Sorry for the double-post, but I wanted to give another update on where everything is.
The poster is essentially complete! I’ll be getting some copies printed as early as next weekend.
I’ve talked to Ravidrath and he has graciously offered to have the posters signed by Lab Zero, so please let me know if that’s something you’re interested in. It’ll take some extra time before I can get them out to you because of the cost and mailing overhead, but I imagine it’ll be worth it!
To our first-place winners: Your sticks are progressing as well. I’m largely waiting on the art as far as those are concerned; most of the wiring is either done or close to done.
Let me know if you want your stick art signed by Lab Zero as well. I don’t have the cash to send them the sticks and have them send it back(size/weight), but I can probably bundle in the card stock I plan to use with the posters.
I underestimated the costs of getting posters printed out a bit, plus this opportunity also comes with extra mailing costs, so I ask for your continued patience in getting these rewards out there.
