Deviation Actions
Hi everyone! As some may have noticed already, new galleries were added a few months ago, and quite a few images moved from one to another in an effort towards more coherence and easy searching:
"Crafts" for all scale modelling, paperwork and assorted creations in plastic, paper, fabric or whatever your imagination leads you to use; "Tintin Meets..." for all the imaginary encounters between Hergé's heroes and other characters from comic books, cartoons, etc.; "Humour and parody" should be clear enough for everyone I believe;
"Metamorphoses" is for all images in which Tintin and other Hergé characters are drawn as ponies, dragons, super-heroes, and also the gender-bender drawings (i.e. male characters drawn as female and reverse).
Also please note the distinction between "Fan Fiction" (full stories, either in text or in comic-strip form) and "Fan Characters" for imaginary heroes invented by fans (please remember however that all submissions that do not feature these characters alongside REAL Hergé heroes will not be accepted). Besides, all drawings depicting or implying kissing or sexual intercourse between characters of whatever sex will not be accepted.
I'm currently working on a way to rename and simplify the titles of some of the galleries as I've noticed many submitters have a hard time figuring where to submit what. Among these changes, I will rename "Tintin canon art", which no-one really understands in the same way. To keep things simple, what is to be considered "canon" is artwork drawn in the manner of Hergé or the traditional Belgian school of comic book artists (OR in the manner of the animated movie); any artwork that is done in YOUR style, or in another artist's style cannot be considered "canon." Anyway, a new title will soon be chosen to reflect that.
PLEASE, still no submissions to "Featured"! Despite the fact it is clearly written right at the top of the group rules below, it seems a lot of people do not care! "Featured" represents my personal choice of certain deviations which I believe deserve special emphasis and attention because of their quality, originality or creativity. Sort of an"editor's choice", if you will. Despite my repeated attempts to block submission to that gallery in the group settings it's apparently still possible for people to submit there, so please make an effort to avoid "Featured" and pick among the many other galleries instead. Thanks!
I hope you guys and gals all have a wonderful time browsing these galleries!!!

SHOULD THIS GROUP BE CLOSED?
Hi Tintin lovers!
Activity in this group has been close to nil over the past few months.
When I took over as the person in charge here (after the previous group owner, who was also its creator, decided to call it quits) I had the notion of keeping a high standard of quality and integrity with regards to Hergé's vision and works.
This approach doesn't seem to have paid off since there are very few submissions to the group. Also I notice that despite new members joining every week, there is an near-equivalent number of members leaving.
So my question is: how legit is that group? Is there still a place and a purpose on dA for a Tintin
HOW DO YOU DEFINE TINTIN 'CANON ART'?
As I was reviewing recent submissions to this group, three remarks came to mind:
1°) This place has been very quiet of late...
2°) Many submitters still don't know how to post in a certain gallery.
3°) Why choose "canon art" as a gallery to post in, and what defines Tintin "canon", anyway?
Allow me to answer the first two. I'll leave the third up to you...
1°) Despite what some members may think, you can submit material that is not your own. If you happen on somebody else's page and find an illustration which you think would be appreciated by this community (and complies to the general posting rules here) then you can click on "Submit devi
NO DOUBLE STANDARDS!!!
That is what a group member asked earlier today and that is a totally sensible thing to ask... Allow me therefore to clarify a few points, notably concerning OC and slash art.
Being a non-anglophone 47-year-old Tintin fan and nowhere near all the teenage geeks that roam dA, I had to look up the terms "OC art" and "slash art" to make sure we were talking about the same thing...
Let's start with "slash art". A dA artist gives a definition on her main page http://hazyshade.deviantart.com/ that goes as follows: "It's basically fanart depicting subtextual same-sex relationships with characters in films, books etc." In other words, implied sexual
LET'S MAKE A FRESH START! (continued)
Welcome to all the members and thanks for your interest in this group! Please make sure to read the group rules carefully before posting anything.
Those who read last week's journal will remember that as the designated "co-founder" of this group (in fact merely a helper) I elected recently to keep this group alive since Berylunee, the true founder of the group, had not been seen around here for months. Unfortunately I had no control over the site's makeup and could not modify the main page's layout, change the allocation of member rights, and so forth.
Well, I am pleased to announce that Berylunee has now granted me full access and passed t
