2016 Soul Eater Resonance Bang Masterpost

Theme: Into The Unknown

The SE Resonance Bang is a fandom-wide collaboration event. Authors and artists from all corners are welcomed and encouraged to collaborate with each other to celebrate the world and characters of Soul Eater and Soul Eater NOT!

The event spans six months, so participants have ample time to complete fine works (but the sign-up window is short by comparison, so don’t wait too long to join in)!

What do?

Authors will write fic involving the theme (Into The Unknown: interpreted in any manner you see fit) with any pairing or non-pairing, any genre (adventure/comedy/romance/smut/etc), and any universe (AUs/crossovers are welcome).

On a pre-planned date (timeline can be found below), anonymous summaries of the fics will be privately presented to participating artists. Artists will put in a claim for the top 10 fics of their choosing to collaborate with its author, and the Resbang Mods will facilitate the claiming process until all fics are claimed.

Fics are to be written and fully completed over the course of several months, with the end goal of having at least 10k edited words by the final deadline. At least one work of art pertaining to a chosen fic is to be fully completed by the group’s assigned deadline.

All fics need to be written newly for Resbang, and all fanart must be done newly for Resbang. These works must not have ever been publicly posted or shared prior to the assigned deadline. Your project is a secret to be revealed at the end of the event. If you’re unsure about what this means, please feel free to contact the mods at resbangmod@gmail.com.

Artists are not limited to drawn/painted media— artists may make graphics, AMV’s, fanmixes, cosplays, photography, music compositions, fanfood, - anything creative as long as it pertains to the story they have claimed. Your range is broad, so if drawing isn’t your forte, don’t count yourself out!

Still want to participate even though you’re not much of a writer or artist? You can volunteer to be a beta! Resbangers may call on you for your opinion and input on their fics or artwork, and you can help them by critiquing before anyone else is allowed to see their work!

Important Stuff!

Please note that this is not a competition. Resbang is an opportunity for the Soul Eater fandom to come together, meet new people, and collaborate to create wonderful new things! There is no required skill level for writing or making art. If you’re a little shy, this is a great chance to get to know fellow fans.

The Schedule:

August 6th: Writer, Artist, and Beta sign ups open at 12:01am EST (GMT -4)

August 27th: Last day for sign ups.  Sign ups close at 11:59pm EST. (GMT -4)

October 1st: First author check-in due to mods; working titles and summaries need to be included. Stories should be at at least 4500 words (for your own baseline, you should be at 30-45% completion now).

October 2nd: Mods post private summaries for registered artists to preview.

October 8th: Artist claims are open! Claiming goes on until all fics are paired with an artist. Once all authors and artists are paired, authors must personally provide their artists with a draft.

November 19th: Second author check-ins are due. First artist check-ins are due. Drafts must be at least 8500 words (for your own baseline, you should be at 80% completion now). Drafts need to have the final title, ratings, warnings, estimated final word count, and a summary. Artist check-ins require a rough draft/rough plan for project. Authors and artists must provide these drafts to one another as well.  

December 17th: Final check in for all writers and artists. Drafts should be completed or almost completed. The mods build the posting schedule from this check-in; this is the time to request a posting date if you know you’ll have a conflict, etc.

December 19th: Posting schedule posted; authors and artists contacted with their posting date.

January 2nd: Happy New Year! Posting begins!

How do I join?

Resbang is hosted by the GrigoriWings forum, which is a Yuku community. Anonymous posting is not available, so you must make a Yuku account/screen name to participate (easy process, and you may delete your profile at the end of the event should you so desire). Once you have a Yuku account, you can register via the various sign-up threads when we open registration. The ResBangMod Tumblr will be an active promotion and announcement blog, but primary participation will be through the forum and NOT through Tumblr.

Please note that ALL pairings, as well as straight-up general/non-rom stories, are welcome and encouraged! The more varied fandom participation we receive, the better Resbang will be, so please don’t hesitate to share across the fandom board or step out of your pairing comfort zone. Intolerance of other pairings, rude behavior, and harassment of other participants will not be tolerated. You will be perma-banned from the board and removed from any participation in Resbang, present or future.

Changes for 2016:

We heard your requests, resbangers! You gave us a lot of great suggestions. We implemented what we could feasibly do for this year, and we will be doing what we can to continue to improve as time goes on. For 2016, we’ve: 

Extended sign-ups from two weeks to three

Bumped the entire schedule so posting begins in January rather than December 

Planned throwback promos for previous resbangs

Planned more ways to help partners keep in touch with each other

Will accept fics in multiple languages

Added a calendar

Updated the forum

Changed the requirements of collaborating artists

Changed the late entry consequences system

Made some minor changes to rules to make them clearer

Also, Livi has been gracious enough to get rid of our annoying ads on GrigoriWings,

and Marsh has set the annoying Yuku chatbox on fire. See you in the country, chatbox.

A Line Art (Sketch) for the second theme of Kidma-week. I have redo this for three times. Since my hand won’t corporate and still won’t. 

I just imagine that Kid would often times use the mirror to check up on Maka, whether she knows it or not especially when she is on a mission.

Here is a post/pre comic strip. Also a Sketch since I really can’t do digital art/coloring right now.

Maka: Kid, Stop being over protective! You are acting like my father! Spirit: *walking* *trips over*
