(spanish version below ^_^)
A few months ago I planned to begin a collection named "Men in my life". As it is an important (and delayed) work for me, I planned a new one in which all of you can and MUST participate!!!!

This is going to be called "CHARACTERS IN OUR LIFE" (or something so)


RULES:
- You have to suggest any kind of fictional character you think is relevant to your life.
- You have to describe him/her
- You have to give a good justification (specially if he/she is not the main character on the anime/film/book...) of why they are important to you.
- Describe how you imagine him/her (pose, setting, light, predominant colors...)
- You can only make 2 entries, and can write it on this journal's comments or send it by note

v

SOURCES:
- Books (Dracula, Frankenstein, Moll Flanders...)
- Games (Kingdom Hearts, DOA, Stree Fighter, God of War, Halo...)
- Anime/manga (Bleach, Fruits Basket, Dragon Ball, Death Note...)
- Movies (Van Helsing, Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean...)
- Comics (X-Men, Spiderman, Teen Titans, Whitchblade...)

v

DATES and DEADLINES:
15th July 2007: That's the last day to send your option

v

EXAMPLE:
* I chose Renji, from the anime 'Bleach'. He's not the protagonist, but one of the main characters. I thought he was quite intereseting, but since the moment I read a fanfic of him and Tatsuki, I absolutely fell in love with him. I saw that there are many "Renjis" in real life. Strong guys with a tender heart, but proud enough not to say what they feel. I imagine him looking at the sunset, with his sword on the ground.

* I chose Jessica Rabbit, from the movie 'Who framed Rogger Rabbit?'. For me, she's the real woman (even though she's a cartoon). She represents the sexuality and intelligence of a modern woman and I really admire her tenderness. but my main reason to chose her is because I identify myself with her. Though she had a strong character, all she needed to be a happy woman was someone to make her laugh. I imagine her taking a bath with a low light on the set.

v

After everybody has joined, I will publish the list of participants; in a few days, I'll say which CHARACTER is the winner. In 2 weeks, you'll have the winner too, and why ^_^



AWARDS:
1st Winner will get a high resolution picture in a printable format (jpg/A4 size) of his character in the pose chosen signed and dedicated by me.
2nd Winner will get a sketch of his/her chosen character signed and dedicated by me (in a printeable size too).
3rd Winner will have one of the pics in my gallery (except of portraits) in a printeable size, signed and dedicated by me.



Remember that everybody is welcome to JOIN this contest.

GOOD lUCK TO EVERYONE!!!!!

SPANISH VERSION
Hace unos meses me planteé la idea de hacer una colección llamada "Los hombres de mi vida". Como era tan importante, he
preferido aparacarla un poco para hacerla en condiciones y mientras tanto hacer otra en la que todos podéis y debéis participar ^^

Las reglas son las siguientes:
- Hay que elegir un personaje de ficción que haya sido importante para vosotros.
