CHOUSEN #1! GO!

I have been thinking about what to choose for our inaugural chousen and I wanted it to be something that would be really exciting. This choice could set the tone for the future chousen and I wanted it to be one that was going to really give us something to sink our teeth into.

Couple that with the fact that I've been championing Left 4 Dead by the guys at Valve since I've seen video footage and decided that I will throw money at that game as soon as it is humanly possible. You can check it out at http://www.gametrailers.com and just toss Left 4 Dead in the search bar. There's a ton of videos to check out and get excited about.

So that brings us to our first chousen...

Chousen: Over the course of this week, I challenge everyone to design an original survivor and boss infected for the game Left 4 Dead. Check out the above mentioned website or any others to get research information on character designs and a feel for the game.

Deadline: Saturday, October 11th, 2008 @ midnight (I believe we are all CST). If you aren't able to post the art directly here, email it to me and I'll post it for you.

Choice of medium: At submitters discretion, but feel free to go wild.

Details: After posting, please give an explanation of what the boss infected does and any other things that you'd like to include.

Bonus: Concepts sketches would be an awesome addition just to show the process that you went through to come to your final choice.

The challenge has been issued, Drink it!
