ahaha yay! i will give it another week or so, and if no more sign ups we'll just do a mixed fandom icon battle!

[tinny]

or we'll just add more Merlin caps. I don't mind either way. I haven't iconed Merlin in ages, but screencapped has great HQ caps, so I don't think we'll have problems finding enough.

[timetobegin]

sounds good!

[timetobegin]

Shall we do say 3 caps each? A little one?

[tinny]

Sorry, I was a bit stressed this week. So now that we're three participants, how do you want to do it? Three caps per person or two? I'd be fine with either.

I guess I'll just add two more to my list, then you can choose what to do.

aww it's no worries!! these things happen.

I'll update all 9 caps, and then if you only get to 6, that's totally fine.

Tentative due date of 21 July?

Tentative due date of 21 July?

oh my goodness, no, not going to happen. I'm doing two 20s this month, I will not get to it before those.

Sorry, I am a bit stressed - I have vacation in August, so that's going to be a lot more relaxed. I can't really add any more to my work load right now.

(Still have to write that second guide, too... it's all a bit much at the moment.)


Anyway, thank you very much for organizing! I am looking forward to it (once I get my head back on straight :)).

[timetobegin]

ahahah no worries - just submit when you're ready!

done!

[tinny]

Huh, so I was in a good mood today and made all nine in one day. :D





In case animated is not allowed, I can upload a non-animated alt.

Thank you!

Re: done!

[tinny]

Are you going to make a roundup post? One of the reasons I love battles so much is because the different icons look so great next to each other. Or is there a submission missing?

Re: done!

[timetobegin]

absolutely, I am just waiting on one person, but I might just give them a couple of days and then close it.

Yooooooo!! *runs to collect screencaps*
MERLIN BATTLE!Yes,please!
Also, I'm not sure if you've made it 3 screencaps per person,so just keeping these here, you can just use the 1st one if it's still 1 cap per person. :)

three is still fine with me, but depending on tinny we might just do 6 or something.

[abyss_valkyrie]

OOOH!!Cool, no problem!

[timetobegin]

All caps are in the post now!
If you only make 6 icons thats fine

Tentative due date of 21 July?

[abyss_valkyrie]

Alright yo! The date is cool, I'll check out the rules properly now haha!

[timetobegin]

if you still want to enter this, let me know!! no rush if you do though :)

[timetobegin]

Last chance to enter this - i'm going to post the round-up post on Tuesday, so let me know if you still want to enter :)

[abyss_valkyrie]

Oh my gosh,I messed up! I saw the post for the technical themes challenge and thought that we had to use the screencaps from here to create icons with the techniques listed there. T_T
Can I do something?I'll enter those icons as part of this battle as that's what I wanted to and not enter the technical challenge?(Or do something else if I make it on time.)

[timetobegin]

haha I did wonder at the time - yes, absolutely what ever works for you!!

[timetobegin]

You're welcome! I'm re-watching Merlin again and I just fell in love with the show all over again. I just can't get enough of making icons for Merlin right now. Thank you!! ♥
