BlooberBoy Tribute

For those of you who haven't heard, one of our most beloved artists, BlooberBoy, is going away for a week or two to do basic military training. As anyone with any form of experience in this area can tell you, it's harrowing, fatiguing, and mentally and physically trying. That's why when he gets back from this brave endeavor, we should have something awesome prepared for him.

What I was thinking of was an image collaboration not unlike the absolutely stunning one put together for Critical Volume when he was in the hospital. The actual content of the gift is open to suggestion (i.e.: something other than an image collab). I think this would be something nice for all of us to do to salute the courage of someone who willingly chooses to go through an experience like boot camp. If anyone's interested, post here and let me know what your suggestions are or anything else you think about the idea in general.

I think that's a great idea. I am artistically inept but I would be happy to contribute in some other way, if one exists. I think for the CV pic, the writers in the house simply signed it with kind wishes.

I now also think Bloober is completely nuts. :)

Heh, I'd also be happy to contribute in some way, heh, also, it's not a 2 week thing, I think it's a full on 6 month or year service, he's going to have his first leave in 2 weeks or so :)

No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.

yea. My best friend went off to the marines, it's as close to hell on earth as you can get. I have good photoshop skills, but no sound drawing ones, so I can do editing and photo work for someone who has a base drawing.

Come chat with me on IM!!! Keep me from getting lonely!

Oh, I must have misread that. I'm not too familiar with what military service entails, much less military service in Finland :P

It's not too late to make it a dual-artist tribute if you want it...I apologize, I wasn't aware you were going away for boot camp too.

Basically, think along the lines of CV's get-well card (which was a large part of the inspiration for this undertaking), except we want to wish BB luck while he's in boot camp.

Ok. Well is anyone working on a base image? Cuz I would love to photoshop something for him, he is probably my favorite artist. one of my best closest female friends loved his recent one with the "Holy SMigglewukms!" thingie. I love it too, and she did as well and isn't even into inflation (although she does know). So I'd love to pay him back :)

I'm compiling all the images into a collage (resizing and all), with credit for each artist next to the pictures.

NOt if you don't want to. If you want to contribute, draw something, and I'll take care of the rest! Trust me on this, I have a lot of time on my hands :P

So far, about six or seven people have contributed. It's not quite what I was hoping for, but was better than I expected. Either way, I want to try to wrap this project up about a month from now.
