I used a tablet like Venksta says for my drawings, but I used GIMP for both lines and colours.

I certainly cannot wait until the auction.

Hey gang,
I know many of you guys are still very excited and waiting in anticipation on the final steps of this project to wrap up. One of the last messages I've posted in this thread was to wait for REDLINE and decepticon1976 to post updates on their work. The Radicons Staff continue to be very excited to help this charity as well as seeing every going live.

However, creating a post asking for an update is going against the moderation of this thread, and is inconsiderate towards both REDLINE and decepticon1976. Both REDLINE and decepticon1976 have been very clear about certain issues on their end of things. Radicons need to excerise patience, consideration, and kindness regarding this issue.

Thanks for all you guys, guys.

Sorry about that Superquad7, Supersquad put me up to it. Just joking, actually, I didn't read carefully what was asked for, so my bad.

So how about instead of letting this thread get pushed off, we discuss future RFTK sets? I think the intention was to have it as an annual project. So its never too early to start the next one.

What are some ideas for future sets? Go with what BotCon does, but do our own version of the characters? Or create something totally different, like figures most fans wanted to see in the current or other lines, which Hasbro hasn't done? I think we can come up with better ideas than what BotCon usually does.

Here is a thread to check out. WhiteMocha has done some awesome digibashes for BotCon style sets. These could be fun to make.

supersquads has a way of getting people, especially when they least expect it

For the future, we want to stay away from what Botcon is doing. There is no need for Radicons to piggy back off of Botcon or any thing else. I really think WhiteMocha has hit the gold mine, personally speaking. I certainly think that thread is a great place for us to begin the brainstorming for future projects. What particular sets would the rest of you like to see?

For those who have expressed concern on this subject, whether it be privately or publicly, the other Administrators and I have taken interest in this and will get you all an update as soon as we have an update/explanation/etc.

Thanks for your continued patience.

Most of the artists that contributed to this project have been contacted and we are all in agreeance that this needs to happen. As a whole, we would like this project to move on. WE have come to the conclusion that the Auction will go live November 29th. I have had these works of art sitting in my work space for too long and it is time we (the artists) see the reward when the auction is over and the Make a Wish foundation receives their gift from us Radicons.

2010 is just around the corner. When does the botcon guys start posting up the exclusive figures and whatnot. Think an earlier start on this would be best this time around so it can be auctioned closer to the botcon event. The ideas in that digibash thread are awesome BTW!

Good to know, I'll be sure to pimp this out on my Youtube channel.
Over the next month.

Thats good to hear, thanks for the update.

Hope this still manages to pull some scratch in for the kids, with the amount of hard work put into this, i think it'll still be a large point of interest for some lucky collector.
Lookin forward to the auction.
