Question of the Week #131 · 1:41am Nov 22nd, 2023
Hello everyone and welcome back...
Please! Please! ... Check out the Cyberpunk Equestria Nightmare Night Story Contest.
There are prizes and so far there are only three participants, so go check it out.
So, in the last few blogs I mentioned that I was working on a short Nightmare Night themed shipfic involving Zipp and Hitch from Gen 5.
-You can find this image here... Have you checked out the story contest yet.
Well, I can now definitely say that I haveva decent amount of it written out.
I have a pretty good idea about how the story will go and I even came up with a way to explain having future Hitch shipping fics take place on Nightmare Night in a way that makes sense.
An OC of mine may also be popping up for a moment in the story as well.
Now that I've established the foundation, my questions will hopefully make sense... Hopefully.
So, last year I wrote a quick Nightmare Night themed story and created the cover art for it myself. That story being my Ask Scootaloo story. I bring this up, because there is a part of me that is considering maybe doing something similar for this new Nightmare Night Hitch x Zipp shortfic.
For those of you wondering what the cover art is that I am speaking of, you can see it here (it's also the story attached to this blog):
-Apparently I didn't post this on DA or Derpibooru, which is quite bizarre... Now have you checked out the contest?
Now while I am considering doing something similar to this Neon Day of the Dead Style for the cover art, there is also a part of me that is considering doing a challenge. Essentially I would create the artpiece, and then give other artists the opportunity to create an image but with the own style/spin on it. Then I'd pick the one I like to be the cover and credit the artist in the story description with links to their main art sharing website and FiMFiction account.
So, here are the questions:
- Do you like this art style for cover art?
- Do you think this challenge is a good idea or not?
Please comment below and tell me what you think.
Thank you all for coming. May you all have a gracious and wonderful Thanksgiving.
