and tentative competition?
I'm not sure if just any one is allowed to organise a competition, but if this is allowed I will do it.
Ayway, to the point.
I started this picture as a picture of Sophos as a bunny, and I suddenly had an idea:
Alice In Wonderland!
The competition, if allowed, is to make the best caption/ speech bubbles for this image.
You don't have to put them on the image, you can comment under this picture.
I don't want to steal the sheep of the Bunny- theme competition, so I'll make the deadline way after it has finished.
The characters are:
- Nahuserwocky as the Jabberwocky
- Eddis as the White Queen
- Costis and Teleus as Tweedledee and Tweedledum
- Attolia as the Queen Of Hearts
- The Magus as The Caterpillar
- Eugenides as the Cheshire Cat
- and Ina as Alice
One caption per person, and if there's any other questions, just ask me.
Prizes will be fanart, as it's the only thing I'm good at xp, with a banner made from the picture as well.
Also, something of interest, as I was trying to pick who should be who out of the characters in Alice, I did some research on their traits and personalities. While I immediately jumped to the Cheshire Cat for Gen, I did look at the King of Hearts as well, and found some amusing similarities:
"He secretly pardons most of their subjects after his wife sentences them to death"
"a tiny man who has a tendency to sleep a lot. He in fact is scared of his own wife."
"The King of Hearts doesn't appear but he fell asleep and let the Queen of Hearts take over."
Who would you have picked for each character, and why?
Hope this is all of interest, i'm not very good at discussion, I'm normally the one lounging on my throne while everyone else does the talking XD
And I hope to the gods this cut worked...

Thanks for sharing!! :)

Date: 4/22/12 11:16 pm (UTC)One teeny correction, though. "Jabberwocky" (with a final y) is the name of the poem, not the creature:*
"... The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame / Came whiffling through the tulgy wood / And burbled as it came."
*I know they called it the Jabberwocky in the movie with Johnny Depp. It's a great movie, but they were wrong.

Date: 4/23/12 12:11 am (UTC)I just have a quick question. Are you entering this image into the bunny competition as well then?
By the way, that is an AWESOME drawing. Is Gen the Chesire cat? Because that would so fit him.

Date: 4/23/12 03:52 am (UTC)But Gen in Attolia's nightshirt is not a bad idea :D
no subject
Date: 4/23/12 04:00 am (UTC)I think I did come across that fact during my research, but ever since I learned the poem in primary school, I can't stop calling it a Jabberwocky. >_<
I hope you will forgive my brain. It likes to substitute reality with its own creations...

Date: 4/23/12 04:02 am (UTC)I thought I went a bit far off the "bunny" theme to enter it, so I wasn't going to enter... :/
And thankyou :)
Yes, Gen is the Cheshire Cat. :D

Date: 4/23/12 04:11 am (UTC)And yes, I had a bit of trouble with Gen, even though I went with the Cat in the end, I think he would also make a great King Of Hearts.
I made sure to incorporate his Pointy Beard and general looming evil-ness XD
Minister of War... that would be interesting...

Date: 4/23/12 04:14 am (UTC)Some might call me strange for thinking that the idea of Gen in drag is the most hilarious thing ever, but hey... //is a shameless reprobate
Someone draw Gen in Irene's nightshirt! //hint, hint
