Sounds fun! Can we choose whatever colors work best for our villian or is there a color scheme?

You can use any colors you want this time.

Don't forget, we are choosing our villains today. The selection thread is now open here

I'm so excited to have my villain. As much as I want to start working on my villain kit, I STILL HAVE TO FINISH DC#6!!!!

Agghhhhh... So excited about this!

I was wondering what direction everyone is going in?

Seeing as we can't make the actual characters, are you just doing a general kit in the colors of your villian? Adding 'creepy' extras? I've got a few ideas, but could use more, and want to make sure my kit "goes' with the rest for the mega kit.

I'm going with colors of my villian. Doing word art specific to her and the tools that she had... cloak, dagger, hazelnut soooouuuup, etc. Papers will be more specialty papers that are villiany - think grungy - not cardstock like. At least that's my plan...

I've got Cheshire Cat, so I'm going with pink/purple. Not very evil colors haha, but those are just the colors I think fit best with the character. I might add some grey/black, but I have not really started yet so I'm still thinking .

[Saar]

I'm going for the colors of my villain too.
I'm not going to make a scary, creepy kit, but I'll add the items that make him who he is.

But I don't think it's an easy challenge.

Thanks. I think that is what I'm going to do. I know the color scheme at least. I wasn't even going to do this one, but I'm actually really excited.

This is definitely going to be challenging! I have been wondering somethings myself about copyright infringement etc. and I definitely have some inventions and quotes in mind... these are okay aren't they? I haven't a clue about the colors just yet because since we can't make the character (except maybe I can try and draw him for the bloghop) then I'm just gonna see what colors I come up with as I go along. I have to wrap up what I have for DC6 though. Got started with a bang but been completely side-swiped otherwise in my "real" life I won't give up though. This is my one thing I do for me!
