"The Fightclub is quiet
tonight. The previous round has finished and all the contestants are
taking a well earned rest. A blood red moon hangs in the sky above the
arena spires, a chill wind howling between them.
Up on the hill,
in the cemetery affectionately dubbed 'Loserville', Stan and 'the
Sarge' have just finished burying the latest victim of the arenas
brutal fights.
Dark clouds start to sweep overhead, and a storm
starts to pick up. The two men try to hurry off to their truck as soon
as they are done, just as a rumble of thunder rattles over the
landscape.
There's something almost supernatural about this
storm, the clouds have an eerie green glow, sparking as the lightning
starts up. A heavy acid rain starts to fall and flood over the
cemetery, seeping down deep into the ground.
Instantly the forks
of lightning start to hit the ground, more and more, striking the
headstones of the fallen. Stan and Sarge don't make it to their truck
in time and the onslaught of lightning catches them, ending up
lifeless, face down in the green mud.
And as suddenly as it
starts, it stops. The storm passes over, and there is silence, leaving
the ground with a throbbing green glow.
Then a quiet moan is
heard, growing louder and louder. From one of the graves, a hand shoots
upward from the dirt, followed by the decaying body of one of the
Fightclub fallen. Others rise around him.
Soon a squad of undead
zombies are moving fast down the hill towards the Fightclub Arena set
on vengeance against their living opponents who sent them to this
hell..."
THE CHALLENGE
Pick one of your own
characters, it must be one who has been defeated in Fightclub in the
past, and redesign them as a zombie. Post a pic of your redesign here
in the WIP thread first. You're final will then be an image of your
zombie character attacking, fighting, biting or beating, or even being
beat by the opponent who put them in Loserville the first time round.
RULES
Deadline for final images and 2 WIP links is midnight Saturday 31st October UK TIME, at which point voting will be open for a week until midnight Saturday 7th November. Final images and WIP links must be posted before the deadline. Failure to comply may result in automatic disqualification.
Voting will use the 3 votes per person system, 1st place vote gets 3 points, 2nd gets 2, 3rd gets 1. If the votes are tied, the challenger who received the drawn number of votes first will win. If we finish with only 2 or 3 final images then it will be 1 person, 1 vote.
