I can't wait until the reveal, in part because I want you all to be able to look the monsters over and start voting, but also because I intend to contact one of the Top 5 entrants to see about doing some collaborative work together. Of course, I can't do that until that person knows he/she is in the Top 5...
You know you can contact me anytime to collaborate Mike, even if I am in the dark on this particular open call. :)

As a side note, there might be a preview somewhere of an upcoming comic with some going for the eyes action.

Only two days + many many hours left until the reveal. I'm thinking I'll reveal them one by one in the order they were submitted, each reveal spaced one hour apart. And finally, at 2 pm Pacific time (or midnight here in Finland), the voting booth opens.
All of that happens on my blog, but I'll post updates here, too.
And sometime soon I'll get to see what Sean thinks about our top 5 monsters. :-) (Many, many thanks to SKR for doing this!)

Voting booth? Are the fans going to decide who is #1?

@wraithstrike: Yes. We picked the top 5 and commented on them, but voters get to decide who wins. Of course, our comments are likely to guide the votes somewhat.
The relevant parts from our contest timeline are bolded below:
Aug 23: The contest begins! The open call is open for three weeks.
Sept 13: Submissions are closed. Our judges (Mikko Kallio, Mike Kimmel & Jacob W Michaels) convene to determine the top 5.
Sept 20: Entries are narrowed down to top 5. Our guest judge Sean K Reynolds starts commenting on the top 5 entries.
Sept 27: The top 5 entries are revealed along with comments from Sean, Mikko, Mike and Jacob. Public voting begins.
Oct 4: The voting ends and the winner is revealed shortly after!

I just sent my final comment revisions to Mikko; just some minor tweaks in a couple of them.
And actually, I'm not sure exactly what time Mikko's planning to post them. He's in Finland, and is thus 8 hours ahead of EST, so I assume it might be posted somewhat on the early side for us Americans (though not all the contest entrants were American).
Really looking forward to seeing what SKR and you guys think. One more day...

Could he be posting at *gasp* real world time?!
*counts remaining few hours until tomorrow*

Evil Queen, I believe he will be posting on his blog, A Sword for Hire.

That's correct. I'll post links to the blog posts here, though.

I just re-read the Top 5 and submitted my final comments to the crew.
The monsters are just as good as they were the first time I read them! I look forward to tomorrow.
If you aren't in the Top 5 but wish to see my comments on your monster, let me know via PM and I will send them to you or post them to the forums, as you prefer (but not until after voting ends).
