is battlesketch dead?
So... what's going on with Battlesketch? I keep anticipating The Big, Bad Topic but there hasn't been one since I joined - oh oh wait - I get it! You guys are planning, like, this really huge, great, fantastic battle, right? Something along the lines of having the crew from DC comics waiting to go to battle against all of us notebook doodle types, right? Right?

Ok. That's what I thought. Guess I'll sit tight and wait some more. Just had to get that off my chest. Thanks.

I hope not. :(

I was wondering this myself. I hope the community continues -- it's a wonderful idea and a brilliant way to keep me sketching. I claim no great skill or talent in it, but I *do* claim great enjoyment.

My kid just asked me the same thing tonight. I said, "I dunno, kid." But I've had to bow out of the last two or three sketches due to personal time issues.

Maybe this is just a really long battle in sketch stadium so we can all get entries in?

Please?

Maybe I should hijack the community (hmm, I'm not even sure I can post to it) and try out my idea... I thought someone (say, me) could post a story (something original, or swiped from Project Gutenburg or some other copyright-free source) and the battle is to sketch out a scene from the story.

Of course, if nobody's interested in the story, nobody will take on the invincible Iron Sketchers.

Note: I've been watching Iron Chef lately. Sorry.

Yeah I was thinking of that as well.

I think your idea is pretty complex - in the sense that it might be a pretty big task but at this point - hell, why not? Don't know unless you try. I say go for it.

"Allez Battlesketch!!"

You should set a deadline, otherwise people like myself will be posting the final sketch three and a half years down the road.

>>Note: I've been watching Iron Chef lately. Sorry.

I LOOOOVES me some Iron Chef.

Yeah, I told my wife last night that Iron Chef should be on whenever we're looking for something to watch on TV.

Or maybe some other wacky Japanese shows.

Chairman Kaga is my hero.

I'm right there with ya. Me and my boy used to make Saturday night "gourmet night" - we must have done this for at least a year if not more. We would try cooking up something new in the kitchen and then sit back enjoying our plump tummies while watching Alton Brown, Jamie Oliver, and ultimately Iron Chef.

>>Or maybe some other wacky Japanese shows.

Yeah you know I've heard that Jap TV really puts american "extreme sports reality tv crap" in it's place. They do things like light themselves on fire and ride giant logs down mountains - and they call that NoFear Factor hehehhe... I'm kidding. But yeah, I've heard their RealTV shows are fantastic.

My favorite is Hiroyuki Sakai. I was torn for a while between him and Chen Kenichi but then Sakai's cute little mannerisms outnumbered Chen's so - my girlish little heart just fell for the man. What can I say?
