Round 1: Animal concept design round (Butterfly)
One of my favorites, though the above image doesn't fit well within the amount of space blogger allows you for your images (currently trying to see what I can do to fix this, but it doesn't appear there's much I can do unless I become an expert with html coding)
Round 2: Nation hero design round (Luck o' the Irish)
Design was rather basic, but I liked the concept I was able to come up for him within the competition. I barely made it by that round with this character, due to having too many similarities with Guardian's uniform from Alpha Flight.
Round 3: Dazzler re-design round
Loved how this one turned out. Changed the character from her disco queen roots into more of a rave/DJ uniform.
Round 4: Hero/month design (M.A.R.C.H.)
Another cramped image. Enjoyed the design and thought it would do well with the votes, but most people didn't catch the "March " feel I was trying to get across with the design
Round 5: X-men/Legion of Super-heroes re-design (Cyclops)
Another of my favorites. Did the best out of the bunch, placing 2nd in that round
Round 6: Fictional character design (Coraline)
Toughest round of the competition (for everyone), due to research needed to come up with the design. Wound up being a non-elimination round (probably because it was so tough)
Round 7: Golden age Image character re-design (Voodoo)
The last round, where I got eliminated. Thought I would do good with this one, but I got eliminated with this re-design.
Overall, the competition was fun, and it was great to finally flex my creative muscles after inactivity over the last 2 years. However, there's a lot of faults with the voting setup for the CBRunway, which I hope they can fix next year (too many "get your friends to vote for you, no matter how crappy your stuff is"-ness going on). I went in there, fresh to the message boards, without any extra "added" support to gain myself votes. I had hoped that the actual voters would be a bit more objective with how they cast their votes, but there was a small group of them that weren't, which made the competition less fun the further along I went in it. Oh well...
