Ramona Flowers as Batwoman (Kate Kane).
Two of my favorite comics ladies all mashed up.
My second (well, third, actually, if you count the alternate hair on my first one) entry for radiomaru’s Alternate Ramona Contest.
I think I might have gone a little overboard and disqualified myself - it’s supposed to be a coloring contest and I pretty much redrew most of it. But, like, I got into it. Gave me something to do while watching the paint on my walls dry.
Oh, yeah, I didn’t give a sob story last time - but the painting thing… so, like, I’m needing to repaint parts of my apartment to get my deposit back. I hadn’t planned on moving out, but the landlord discovered my dog, and dogs are against the lease, so I had to find another place. In order to do so, I have had to nearly max out my credit card to pay the deposit on the new place, have sold half my books and all my DVDs, and will be selling off seven years’ worth of comics because there’s not place to store them in the new apartment.
I mean, I guess that’s a sob story, right? The moral is that I love my dog and paint fumes make me go loopy. Oh, and I can’t actually draw or use photoshop well, which is why this took me all weekend.

Version 2 of the Ramona I posted a little earlier for radiomaru’s Alternate Ramona tumblr contest.
Yeah, I’ll be posting these all weekend (although this is the last one of this particular version).

BTW: As far as sob stories go (per the contest rules), I haven’t got one. I’m just not great at coloring and am working on the couch on a laptop trackpad. So… points for trying?

#ALTRAMONACONTEST

A TUMBLR CONTEST BY BRYAN LEE O’MALLEY



Here is Ramona Flowers as colored by Nathan Fairbairn. This is how she’ll appear in the official color version of SCOTT PILGRIM VOL 1.

What I want is to see YOUR idea of what colors Ramona could be! Show me Ramona’s Alternate Colors!

RULES:

- Grab the B&W art above. Color it in. I don’t care what you use, I don’t care if you’re talented, just make her look different and interesting! (ie NO PINK HAIR cause I already used it). Print it out and color it with crayons, do a crazy digital paint job, or anything in between!
- When you’re finished, post to your own tumblr with the tag AltRamonaContest. Me and my staff (I don’t have staff) will track the tag and pick winners!
- The contest will run from July 6 to July 20, two weeks long
- Yes, you do have to have a tumblr account. If you’re creating one just for this, it better look legit. If you have a blank face and an empty tumblr, I will be suspicious. I PREFER REAL TUMBLR USERS. This is a tumblr contest!

PRIZES:

- 3 winners will be chosen!
- grand prize: SCOTT PILGRIM VOL 1 COLLECTOR’S EDITION (retail value: $100 USD)
- 2 runners up: SCOTT PILGRIM VOL 1 EVIL EDITION (retail value: $40 USD)
- Will I ship internationally? Yes I Will. This contest is open to tumblr users WORLDWIDE.

For bonus points, include a sob story in your post about how you’ll never be able to get one of these special editions unless you WIN the contest!!!

Gonna have some fun with this.  Win or lose, I get to color!
