Yesterday I lost the second, and last, lil' superhero I had. Rocky, my hamster, p*censored*ed away due to a cancerous tumor growing in this throat. I probably won't be getting any more pets, at least not for a long while, since I just can't deal with them dying. So, I'd like to do something special for my little angels.
And I thought, what better way to celebrate them than get some wonderful artwork from the extremely talented artists that play this game? Truly, every piece I've seen on the forums has been gorgeous and unique, and I'd love to have something like that for my lil' heroes.
I really do think of them as heroes, since caring for Elmer helped pull me out of a dangerous, depressed funk. And caring for Rocky helped take my mind off of losing that wonderful guinea pig. If neither of them had come along, and helped me reach a brighter, more positive point of my life, I might not even be here today.
Because of that, I'd like their pictiures to represent that heroic side of them.
This is a reference pic for Elmer Jacobson Fudd. It isn't him, since the only pictures I have are photos, but it's a guinea pig that looks just like him.

Though I would like the following additions:
- Elmer wears a red cape with a light blue trim. It also has a big, blue letter 'E' in the centre of it.
- I would also love him to be standing up, in a heroic-ish pose.
- He's always been a chubby one.
This is a reference pic for Rocky, though he looked like any other teddy bear hamster.

You can't really see it but, like the picture, Rocky's bottom was also white. I would also like the following additions.
- Rocky wears a dark blue cape with a gold-yellow trim. It also has a big, yellow letter 'R' in the centre of it.
- He's Elmer's sidekick, and looks rather timid compared to the guinea pig.
- He's also quite chubby.
I'd love for both of them to be in the same picture, but if that's not possible I'll understand.
Sadly, I don't have a lot to offer prize wise, so this is what you could win:
Firt place:
Either Congregrating, my magenta Uilus, or Mitigated, my lemon easero. Your choice.
You'll also get 500K.
Second Place:
The remaining pet from the first place prize.
You'll also get 250K
Third Place:
250K
Those are the prizes. I'm not exactly judging by quality, but by accuracy, and if a picture can bring tears to my eyes just as those rascals once did.
I'll be taking a quick break from Res, so the contest will close June 9th, and prizes handed out June 10th, about the time I come back.
Thank you for your time.
