I'm having a lot of difficulty with this one :s. Ambriel's face is jsut so...unhappy, it's hard to portray "cheer". But at least i know i'm not the only one.

GL everyone!

I only said not to post outtakes til after the deadline because Tender stated not to before... I'm not trying to be a meanie or anything. :P

I don't think it should be encouraged though, personally... as posting outtakes will discourage people from using certain spots, or from trying a certain emotes if they think that the poster is doing them too. Also, I wouldn't want to panic an hour before deadline seeing someones outtake and thinking that my shot looked the same or similar. Just my opinion.

Okay, is it okay if the picture displays holiday "cheer" without some of the cheer, but has a full holiday essence? Like can we be anti-cheer? Cause my photo was a bit different.

The Grumple · Dec 25, 2007, 01:58 AM // 01:58

Caster - I think on the main thread Tender told Toutatis that an anti-cheer theme was fine as long as it was still within the whole idea of xmas/wintersday ^^

Heavenly Messanger · Dec 26, 2007, 07:50 PM // 19:50

Gracie, I too have hair problems with Ambriel :x.

Ouch. Just, ouch! That's worse than impaling yourself with your own staff during a casting animation (happens to me frequently)

Daenara · Dec 26, 2007, 09:14 PM // 21:14

heehee... I let the posting of outtakes get the better of me in TNTM... I shouldn't have posted shots that were similiar to the one which I submitted, but the temptation got the better of me.

On another note.. ouch! Gotta love some of the clipping issues with weapons. ^^

Tender Wolf · Dec 26, 2007, 09:20 PM // 21:20

Okay after all the emails I kept getting with people saying ouch, I had to come make sure no one was trying to kill someone else. Now that I see what's going on, I agree..YOUCH!!! That makes my chest and stomach hurt just to look at it. rofl

Edit: All the assignments are now in! Expect results sometime later this week!

And now that they're all in, I will post my own attempt at the assignment, on my second account. hehe

Here is Starli enjoying the snow and catching snowflakes, as there aren't much of those back home in Kourna. And let's not forget her specially made house.

And here are the outtakes:

Rudolph with your nose so bright...

won't you guide my sleigh tonight?

Waving from my gingerbread house

Who put that big sock there?!

Oops...

Queen Kitiara · Dec 27, 2007, 04:20 PM // 16:20

So cute Tender! Can't wait to see the submissions xD

I did take some assignment pics but it was shockingly glitchy and looks like one of your reindeer pics so I won't bother to post it lol.

Hope the submissions went well !

Morag D · Dec 27, 2007, 04:27 PM // 16:27

it's so much more relaxing when you can do an assignment without any pressure at all

here's my humble contribution along with my apologies for only realizing now that the contest had been moved over here :O

edit: and oh yes, the hair issue... had that too countless times, it's ruining the best shots

Hotel · Dec 27, 2007, 05:28 PM // 17:28

I'm prettyy worried, looking at some of my out takes.. I kind-of-sort-of-okay-i-really-do like them more than my entry O_O;

That's not too good. :X

& My ele has been bugging me to post her to cheer you guys on.. so I guess I'll succumb to it D: She has a mind of her own.

Annnddd here she is

The Last Anthem · Dec 27, 2007, 06:23 PM // 18:23

morag that pictures really pretty

Tender Wolf · Dec 27, 2007, 06:39 PM // 18:39

Cool shots everyone! Morag, your ele looks like a candy cane.

hehe And Hotel, I like that ele.

Contestants are now free to post their outtakes in this thread! Stay tuned for voting results either later today or tomorrow, with assignment 2 shortly afterward!

Toutatis · Dec 27, 2007, 08:01 PM // 20:01

Here are some of my outtakes...

"You know, this ledge doesn't look that stable... And where's that latte I ordered 25 minutes ago?!"

Watch your footing!

"I swear it looked solid enough to walk on! Someone get Orion out here!"

See you in the spring Deus

RedStar · Dec 27, 2007, 08:21 PM // 20:21

After doing some much snowball fights, Go Burnnnnnnnn wanted to have a memory of her first Wintersday ^^.

Your shot would have won this week's challenge if you were in this contest! Its stunning!!

This week, Ao demonstrated she has either the best graphics card or she knows how to put anti-aliasing to x4 (do it, it lags a lot, but the pictures come out MUCH smoother.) Render Me Useless had a very good shot, and I enjoyed seeing everyone's. Go Deus, Go Rosary!

Chicken of the Seas · Dec 27, 2007, 09:02 PM // 21:02

Not as good as many others, but I thought I had mind as well give it a go as well

She almost looks drunk in this one...

Hmm...use some immagination with this one

I love seeing everyone's outtakes!

Nian · Dec 27, 2007, 09:46 PM // 21:46

Haven't been following these threads awhile and now we have a new forum section for this. How cool! Now these contests are more easy to follow.

I was just /thinking how it would be cool if one of these days a competition would have judges with big personas. They could have some names and styles and still be anonymous. One could be a Kosslike silly warrior and another a mysterious assassin or something. That would make it more showbiz I bet. :P

I loooooled. Piggybag ! How cute. xD

Tender, your other ranger is prettyy!

Roguish Seraph · Dec 27, 2007, 09:50 PM // 21:50

With so much holiday "cheer" going around, there must be some kind of warning to a very negative pastime going on here in Tyria during the Wintersday season.

Please look out for those cute, fuzzy reindeer.

But Dwarves are fine

Thought I would add my own little spin on cheer...for the reindeer's and Dunkoro's sake. xD

Good luck girls and guys! THe cheer pictures look great!! Good luck on your first round.

That is a good idea, Nian...someone should grab that opportunity. It would seem more fun and interactive.

Tender Wolf · Dec 27, 2007, 10:03 PM // 22:03

lol! Great outtakes guys! Those are hilarious! Deus, I bet that water was cold.

And I will try to resist the urge to feed the reindeer.
