Description
I'm not going to tell you how long it's been since our last contest... it's too embarrassing. The important part is- we've got our new contest, now! You all voted on what you wanted the next contest to be, and here it is! Whoo!Mutant Musical eXtravaganza
... The full title wouldn't fit in the title bar >_>
But YES. It's time for the Mutant Musical eXtravaganza! For this contest, you are to draw characters from Evo gettin' their musicals on. There are a few stipulations- it DOES have to be a musical, or a movie version of a musical. This means: Romeo and Juliet or Charlie's Aunt or other stage productions that aren't musicals? Don't count. It has to be a musical.
Movie versions of musicals do count, so feel fee to use things like Hairspray, Little Shop of Horrors, Rent, or what have you (though know that, personally, if you use the movie version of Sweeney Todd, I will point and laugh at you, sooooo hard).
Things like the TV show Glee, or the movie "Across the Universe or Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog don't count. In order to count for this contest, it has to have been an official, sanctioned stage musical at some point. Yes, Glee uses songs that were once IN a musical occasionally, but it, itself, has never been performed officially as a show. Sorry.
And so long as we're talking about things that won't be accepted... I'm sorry, but I'm not going to take any entries based on Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical Cats. I'm just not going to. It's not because I don't love Cats- I do. But- yeah. No. It's arbitrary, I know, but nothing from Cats, sorry.
THAT SAID- go Musical Mad! You want to do Magneto as the Man of La Mancha? I will love you for the rest of your life. Jean and the New Recruits as Maria and the children from The Sound of Music? Awesome. Xavier as Anthony Hendon in Lucky Stiff? HILARIOUS. Hank as Dr. Jekyll in Jekyll & Hyde? RIGHT ON. There are seriously HUNDREDS of these. It's not hard at allllll.
You can do this as if our Evo darlings ARE the characters from the show, or as if they're performing the rolls in a local production- either works!
Annnndd..... ACTION!

Incorrect. In Evo, the top of Kitty's head lines up with the bottom of Logan's nose, putting him at about half a head taller than Kitty. That said-- yes, he is overly short in this. I don't even have the excuse of saying I was trying to line him up with Ororo, since the top of his head should come up to the middle of her nose.
There is a loooot wrong with this picture -_-

Nope, sorry, Nightmare is only a movie, never been a sanctioned stage play.
There are tons of shows to chose from, I'm sure you can find something. But don't worry too much about getting it "right"... just have fun with it!

Is it okay if it was a film first and then on stage? I was thinking of doing something from Calamity Jane.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Absolutely! Both Little Shop of Horrors and Hairspray started out as movies, before becoming stage-shows. Calamity Jane was made into a fully sanctioned stage production, so it is absolutely fair game

I'm allowed to do Sims 2 Digital Art, right? Because that's all I can do... and I have an awesome idea!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You know, we've never had anyone do any 3D art... Sure, why not. Let's see what you've got ^_~

Okay I have a two questions:
1.) Does need to be colored?
2.) Can we use couples?
Thank you for your help I'm a little confused as this is my first contest.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It does not need to be coloured at all! Line art is perfectly acceptable ^_^ You can work in pencil, marker, MS Paint, Photoshop- however you're most comfortable.
You are free to use any couple you like. We here at the EOC do not discriminate on pairings be they hetro, homo, canon, or fanon. Of course, every single one of us has our own personal favourite pairings, so all we ask is that you are respectful of other people's pairings, and not start any wank over who people have chosen to show as a couple.
The only thing, really, we DON'T accept are OCs, or Canon Characters from the comics. ^_^

Thank you very much I feel very confident now avout this contest because the only thing that ran through my head whilst seeing this was Phantom of the Opera, and now my idea is complete thank you!

Love the promo image! I look forward to seeing what everyone cooks up for this.

At first I wracked my brains trying to think of a stage musical that I was familiar with besides 'The Little Mermaid on Broadway'
Ooh, that reminds, me, there's also 'The Lion King' Musical!! (My God, if 'Can You Feel the Love tonight' hasn't been done in Romy-based music videos a buch of times, I'm sure ya'll are going to get an overflow of it in this contest now that I've-unfortunately-brought it to everyones attention. Uh, sorry?)
Anyway, it hit me what I could do, but I'm not telling. It was one of the first musicals I ever saw,
so I'm pretty excited for it. I just have to find the motivation to do it...and the calendar one.
It's gonna be so fun!!

aww I was thinking about Sweeney Todd and then I read that you will laugh so hard.... and now I must ask... WHY?? D:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Damn... there went my Sweeney. Oh well, maybe I can think of something else.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hey, Sweeney Todd's not AGAINST the rules. It's one of my favourite musicals ever, actually. Which is why I will point and laugh if you do the movie version of it. The movie was good, but cut out a bunch of stuff from the show. It's like Sweeney Todd Light. I say go for it you like it; don't let my cynicism and elitism stop you ^_~ I'm not the judge of these contests, remember?

I like the movie costumes and HBC as Mrs Lovett. She's just nuts
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
She was a lovely Mrs. Lovett, but no one can ever top Angela Lansbury in that role ^_~

Point taken... Either way, I have two ideas for it already. So hey, might as well give it a shot and enter my first contest here... not including the tournament.

sorry to bug you again but can draw the characters but in my own style
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course! Go for it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So it can be them but in my style! Great (really off task are you still writing the evo comic)

I imagine that this is what they all decided to do one day...just to fuck with Xavier and Magneto. Xavier and Mags are all like "SUIT UP! PREPARE FOR BATTLE!" Then the teams all come out LIKE THIS, singing about the two of them. IT WOULD BE MAGICAL. And then they'd break into a chorus of "Why Can't We Be Friends?" and Xavier and Magneto would just be TOO DUMBFOUNDED TO SPEAK.
It wouldn't be the songs, so much, as the high-steppin', elaborate dance routine that would go with it. And the base understanding that there HAD to have been rehearsals. And that SOMEONE was leading them. "It's a step-ball-change not a ball-change-step! Dear CHRIST, EVAN! Black men are SUPPOSED to have RHYTHM! Jean, can you just MAKE him do the steps right for ONCE before I BREAK DOWN and have an ANEURISM. For the love of G0d! ...I need a cigarette
As far as I'm concerned, Pietro made all the costumes. And on the backs of these costumes each sport one letter to spell out, "Fuck you, bastards.
Yep. That's what I think.
