ElfQuest Fan Art

No updates yet but I assume things are proceeding well. It'll be interesting to see the results.
And we can already speculate what topic there will be for next year.

Sorry this is going up so slowly.  I was so excited about the story- I forgot that we have a Thanksgiving every weekend in November.  Two down , two to go.


The Idea:

 When the question was asked this Halloween   "Which OC that you have ever played or would you invent for a Walking Dead/ Z Nation cross-over?"  And the character also had to fit the no-magic ping since the Story is paralleled to began at S9 E1 and the disappearances or sightings of certain types of Magic users is an existing mystery. Table the discussion that sending is a Magic for now and start with that as a given, please.


 This playing format is based on a Creative Conclave theory or a little like a  script writers guild.    Which means all things Hollywood are needed.  Story boards, and then there is the character outlines and such . . .  height , looks , costume, stance etc. . .     Small, very action-packed, character driven episodes  and only  13 available slots to fill out or fill in per year - meaning someone can fill in a episode that has not  been claimed or written and has a empty slot. 
 So we have S1 E13  thru S9 E1  to fill.  Only 3 slots have been applied for and submitted too so far.   Which is a really cool start!   I strive to only write two story contributions along with my Timeline and plot duties every  Season, if I have time for more, great.   If not I haven't let anyone down.  Story and characters can easily be moved forward by a very good script or two.   And a forty minute episode appears easy to format for me.

 The AU paralleled the beginning of this season of 2018 TWD for it's currant start date. 



 Humans are infected, and the "theme" is TWD.  More forest regions because Modern times on a (?) larger world, just industry and cities / smaller towns spread more far apart than Earth, and for some reason the surviving elves cannot get infected or the animals on the planet either. In the first 5 yrs those that relied on Magic disappeared much faster, and to the horror of the others, there are few too none left in the Groups that they have encountered so far. . . encountered so long ago that they doubt they exist now. Could there be a group with magic users left?  We do not Yet know.  But many Traps have been left behind;  Horrors of dead man flesh and bone either embedded in rock or trees or  twisted in body.  Living dead masses that squirm and moan  and cannot move until bones break or flesh rots and they crawl upon the ground.



S2E6 (temporary  timeline slot)  "That first year or so..."     Seems to have been submitted as a backstory to a character.   So this really could work on a fixed Timeline with a 13 episode slot.   Two stories  per season from me would work  too move story and people  - one driven by characters and one by plot - just to keep it going, eh?    This story does not have all its characters yet.    ". . .  the rest of them"    Leaves it open for more characters to be in the beginning/season: or for Players to choose where they want to begin.  Since it is a seasonal/episode format you can choose to be part of the cast or have a guest appearance.  This story is not finished until all details have been added.  You watch the story grow - You add the meat to its bones.


 STORY:   That first year or so after they had established a permanet place, they had been hit hard.  The scouting groups were down in numbers and it was a weary, but intact and successful troop, that was headed back to base camp.  Softfeather had gone on ahead, being less tired from her sniper's volley.  Busyplan was so tired he was dragging his enormous axe carelessly on the ground, Flattop wasn't smashing unlucky objects and Shadow's Whisper's very presence in the group proved how tired he really was.  His large hood was uncharacteristically thrown back and Goldsmash noticed him casually glancing at the plowed ground and, with a sly smile, she imaged a mindful scowl on his otherwise immobile face.

  Something had bothered Hushmore this run and his edge was keeping him on his feet, prowling, and keeping them safe.  He was unapproachable but There. The rest of them looked as tired and ragged as she felt -  but scavenging had been good; multiple carrysacks were full and the trip to the town had been worth it.

 Suddenly a low many-voiced hollow moan could be heard ahead, soft in comparison, to the group moan that answered in exhausted harmonic response.

   
  To be continued :
 
 



  I still have a strange reverence for  "Persona Rights"  (And the Old Rules of Courtesy) so choose a character that you have the rights for and that you enjoy. No harm, can or will come to them, that you do not approve. You set the boundaries for your character, and I will honor them.  These stories do not have to effect their persona or timelines as you choose. (Zombies kill, story tellers should not)  Example:  Goldspice was re formatted to Goldsmash out of respect for River Twine and its chosen boundaries.
     

If you are new to fandom and missed all the beginnings for  "Persona Rights" and  "The Commandments of Fandom" or  "Conflict Courtesies"  I will gently school you.  I am surprised that these rights are not yet self evident.

I’m going to get mine scanned in tonight and sent in. I sent you a quick email so you saw it was finished!

As long as I get it by this weekend. 

Can I submit mine this week?

Don't worry, I should have enough art for the calendar. A few people stepped in to do some extra artwork and a couple of people asked for an extension so things are up in the air but I think it should all be ok. If I do need any more I'll post my plea here. 

Humm, maybe the list might still see some additions.
Still glad I decided to do something, see how thing would proceed and then possibly submit. (Wasn't sure how this year would "develop", so I was hesitant to say yes, I'll get something done.) It was a close call, though. Had to kick myself hard, was very busy at work, so had little time and power left for art. And I kicked myself til 3 o'clock at night to meet the deadline.

So much for time management, but regardless how I plan, and even with buffers, usually something (many-somethings) come/s inbetween and things get frantic in the end.

If you need crunch time artists, I'm sure I can whip up something in a few days.

There are only 10 submissions so far? 

There are only 10 people to submit art. Some may have submitted a couple pieces.

Thank you Maggie and crew for all the hard work and helpful attitudes.  I  am excited to see how everything works together as seasons and themes.
