Wah. LAAAWWLL. WTH I don't belong here. I think Haru has summed up completely what I'm feeling right now.
I'm decked out against such fantastic artists, this is going to be so fuuuuurn. 8DDD

I can't wait to meet you all, exchange friendly greetings and then turn enemies as the competition starts, 8DDD!!! This is going to be fantastic.
Thanks Chuc, only I don't consider myself a woman yet. Still young, muah hah hah hah hah.

everyone has different styles and strenghts, it's going to be a very interesting comp for sure

I've sent the information pack to you guys so if you have any questions just email me back.

I just talked to Wacom today, can the 4 of you make it to Roundhouse by 8.30 so all of you have 30min - 1 hour getting used to the cintiques?

We will provide you with the guest passes when you arrive but you'd still have to pay for entry. Please pre-register before 19th and send your pre-reg number to Oli please.

I think most of our contestants this year have artist tables so they have to come early to set up anyway   let me know if you guys have any probs

This seems like the best place to say that I really enjoyed being a Manga Idol contestant (even though I was freaking out all night and didn't get any sleep x) ) and it was a real pleasure to meet everyone involved. The other artists were AWESOME and friendly (still can't believe I won!), everything went really smoothly and it was just a great event, I felt. I was also impressed that you got such hardcore judges! Geez, professional artists?? I had no idea that was going to happen!

Those Cintiqs were hot stuff. Shame I'm not filthy rich... :P

Congrats on your win, Mamath! I heard about your piece but unfortunately hardly ever got to go outside of the art room all day. T___T I hope they saved it! I heard it had adorable foxes. ><;

[Mamath]

Thanks! I was pretty surprised when I'd just started to draw in the first kitsune's eyes and someone (judge? announcer?) says something along the lines of "Oho, I see a kitsune coming along here"! I'd only drawn, like, two lines! How did you all know?? :P

The entries were saved to the Wacom computers - I think they'll be posting them up some time? I'd like to show my friends who couldn't be there myself.

[Oli]

they were adorable! All the artist did well i think. Congrats again Mamath!
