The Beast Legion 'Action Capture' Contest !

THE BEAST LEGION ‘ACTION CAPTURE’ Contest


Greetings All you Amazing Deviants,

Today is a very special day for me. Today is the day of the release of Issue 4 of my self published manga, ‘The Beast Legion’ which you can read over at  www.THEBEASTLEGION.com &n… with all the previous issues. Over the past months, I’ve had the pleasure of havbin some Amazing artists here on DA do exclusive covers & pin-ups for each these issues which are exclusive to the Print version which can be found at  indyplanet.com/store/advanced_…

What is the Beast Legion?
THE BEAST LEGION  is a web manga created by that follows the exploits of a young prince, Xeus who is forced to flee his homeland after it falls under the tyrannical rule of the evil Dragos & his Shadow Nexus minions.

Prophecised to save his homeland from the chaos , Xeus embarks on his quest to overthrow the tyrant & bring peace back to his homeland of Lithopia. But in order to match up to the armies of Evil, Xeus must first master the secret of the ‘Beast Transfer’, pieces of armor that convert the one who wears them into a beastial form with Awesome powers.

Follow the journey of the young prince as he makes new allies & battles a plethora of
villains & their own ‘Beast transfers’ in order to reach his ultimate goal.
Here’s cover previews for each issue so far…
  

Starting issue 4 ,however, the comic will be updated on Monday’s & Fridays.

To celebrate this double sized issue, I’ve decided to hold a ‘BEAST LEGION ACTION CAPTURE’ contest. I do plan on releasing an art book with fan works sometime early in 2011 with work selected from this contest.


THE CONTEST
Pick any two characters from the Beast Legion mythos so far & draw them in any action pose that you desire.  You can have a maximum of 4 characters in a picture.
