So the contest is finally over. I was still getting entries an HOUR before the closing time at midnight, and some even after the closing time (sorry, those entries didn’t count!)
So what are the results? Let’s get these guys to find out…
Not so sure about that, L…
Dammit! That was good Earl Grey you just wasted!!
Pleeeeeeease….
Actually, the winner will get his/her set directly from animeshumi, not me. 
And the results? Shown here:
Congratulations to the winner!!! They deserve it too, since they retweeted my contest pretty much every hour of every day. O_o; (you will be contacted by me for further details, so I can initiate with animeshumi on getting your prize to you)
Of course, this isn’t going to be the only contest I’ll be holding (notice the “Contest” page in the navigation bar?). So check back often for the next contest!
Thanks to EVERYONE who took the time to participate (all 245 entries of you!)
And especially thanks to animeshumi for sponsoring this contest! Their generosity is greatly appreciated – show your appreciation and go buy something from them! They need your money!
A new blog post to come shortly! Cheers!

RadiantDreamer.net Now Live! Giveaway Has Started!
Thanks, everyone who waited! My blog is finally up and running! The contest has finally started! Click to learn more! more
A Giveway Before a Goodbye. The End of RadiantDreamer.
EDIT: MIGRATION COMPLETE. POST OUTDATED.
This blog is dead.
Those that have been following me for such a long time will have noticed that it’s gone from a happy cheery themed wordpress blog into a dark and somewhat emo looking non-blog.
I’ve discussed this before with several friends on Twitter. You may be one of the people I’ve asked your opinion on it – whether to continue blogging on wordpress.com…
or, to migrate my blog to an actual domain name with self-hosting.
I’ve decided to migrate!
Wait what? So Radiantdreamer isn’t dead? Naw! I wouldn’t abandon my readers just like that! To think of it in a more self-ego boosting way, it’s like Jesus resurrected. In a way, the things that I’ve been busy with, the death in the family, and some things changing in my life, now is a good time to start a new chapter for RadiantDreamer. I don’t go down THAT easily!
The migration isn’t just a simple “switch domain -> 301 redirect -> ???? -> profit!!” model here. This is where I can jump back into blogging again (because I love blogging!) and present myself in a much more enjoyable and entertaining way.
That’s the whole reason why radiantdreamer.net redirected away from my gallery, and back to this blog here. Because I was busy setting up the new blog. It’s half-way done now, and I’m happy with the results so far. But here’s the important part of this post that you WILL want to know:
For the first time ever, RadiantDreamer is holding a giveaway contest!
I’ve decided to take this migration opportunity to hold a contest. The item that I’m giving away?

This giveaway wouldn’t have been possible if it wasn’t for the gracious folks at animeshumi! They’re a fairly new company compared to other long-established online anime stores, but already animeshumi is trying to beat out the competition by offering fast and streamlined and accessible service, and even offering free shipping on orders over $59!

Contest Details:
The contest will start once my new blog is up. The details of the contest will be announced on my new blog when this happens. (which is umm… soon.)
As such, this blog will no longer be updated (I will respond to some comments here, but that’s about it).
So, I’ve started a new feedburner feed. Subscribe to it so that you’ll be the first to know when the contest starts, and when the blog is up.
Right now, it’s pointing to the old blog, but when I update the feed, it will be pointing to the new blog. After you subscribe to the new feed, you can delete the old wordpress feed, as it will no longer be updated.
Since you’re at it, why not do me a favor? Tweet and let your friends know that my blog is moving, and I’m holding a contest.
Better yet, here’s the tweet for it: http://bit.ly/radiantcontestrt
So yeah, in closing, this blog is dead.

It actually required some camera tricks to get the first two shots set up properly – L had to be about 1.5 feet “offstage” from the playset.
Great post and congrats on a successful first contest! Counting must have been fun!
I really like these figure comics, it’s like you get to see another side of already well known characters.
The Bakemonogatari set is adorable, but I didn’t buy it because I’m not too familiar with the series.
L’s sit down position does look a lot like the fetal position on the side. That’s a pretty ingenious observation.
Congrats to the winner!
Pyauki recently posted..Art – Let’s Ride!
Hey Pyauki! Thanks for the comment.
I think this is the first time I’ve done a 4-koma with nendoroids. I hope this isn’t the start of something new, because I’d be treading in kodomut territory, and damn it’s time consuming to do these things!
I’m not familiar with the series myself. I don’t even know the characters’ names. But I couldn’t resist how cute that backpack girl is! lol!
It was kind of accidental that I came up with L in a fetal position. It occurred to me when I was showering (that’s usually where all my ideas come from) and was thinking of how to make L look like he’s in pain from being beaten up.
Oh my gosh!!! I WON!! The little photo story is just too cute! *Final Fantasy fanfare* XD Thank you so much, this is such an awesome news to wake up to!
I’m sorry for spamming you with all the retweets, but it kept me awake during my all nighters last week when I had to work on reports.
Angela recently posted..My first convention
Hey congratulations!
No it’s all good. In fact, you probably won because of the constant retweets. Those were a lot of entries, and it definitely increased your chances!
I’ll get in touch with you via email and get this thing started with animeshumi so that you can claim your prize!
D’aww scrap. Oh well, I’m not really deserving to win it in the first place.. Congratz to Angela! I envy you for the shorts..I mean, the Nendroids. oUo
Marx-Taich0u recently posted..Journal Because everything was on hiatus as of late D-
Hey no worries man. You deserved to win it just as much as everyone else that participated. The random number generator has spoken!
Next time I might do a contest based entirely on skill or something, so the people that work the hardest have the highest chance of winning. (we’ll see)
Naw, I meant I was too lazy compared to Angela. ;3
Contest based on skill tho..does “wielding a hobby knife with utmost prowess” count? xDD
Marx-Taich0u recently posted..Journal Because everything was on hiatus as of late D-
Potentially! If I decide to have a gunpla-based contest in the future.
Congrats! =P
heya Expy! Thanks for participating in the contest dood!
Haha aww i reaaly wanted to win
but congrats to the winner 
treat sengoku with pride ^^
yeah man! you tweeted quite a bit too! O_O
Best of luck on the next contest tho!
Aww.. didn’t win.
But thanks for the contest,
and congrats to the winner~~ (＾o＾๑)ﾉｼ
Loved the nendos yonkoma :3
Especially the part when L knocked down his tea. ( ＞▽＜)η
Thanks for participating in the contest! There will be more in the future, I’m sure.
Glad you like the 4koma! :3 (I actually had a lot of fun thinking it up)
Congrats Angela! That’s some determination right there XD

iknowrite? I guess when you put in the hard work, it does pay off. Especially if luck is on your side. ^_^
Wow, every hour of every day? That’s some serious dedication, congrats to Angela.
Nopy recently posted..Japan Trip – Week 2 Part 1
There were a lot of entries from her… lol! I guess she really wanted it bad!
Thanks for checking back, nopy.
Congratulations ^.^
Thanks for participating, and thanks for referring quite a few people too! ^_^
Damn! My hard work didn’t pay off! What with all of my 1 whole entry. Did I even get 1 entry? I’m not even sure. THE ENTRY IS A LIE!
Oh well. I can’t be like Konata, but I can still strive to her standards…
Grats to you Angela! *pachi pachi pachi*
Radiant – you need to do more comic, you have a knack for it…even if it does look like L is om-nom-nommings on his cup, rather than DRINKING TEA out of it. He even says “…mm, tasty cup.” lol
Insanekitten recently posted..Work Desk Eyecandy Part 1
I could have rigged the contest, but then that wouldn’t be fair to anyone.
Konata’s standards seem to be “Beat other people into doing the work for you.” though I’m not sure if that’s a standard or just a method. :3
Yeah, it’s kinda hard to drink tea made out of plastic, so I guess eating it is another option.
“Beat other people into doing the work for you.”
I’m SO good at that. lol
Insanekitten recently posted..Annual Gamer Trek…We’re Off To Attend PAX!
Hahaha poor L.
Rin x Konata makes a great harassment pair ^^
Congratz Angela! Take care of them =)
lu-k recently posted..Seena Kanon
Actually, I’m surprised at their teamwork dynamic as well! I guess kodomut did a good job in bringing out Rin’s mean streak.
Congratulations to Angela! That takes some serious dedication. I didn’t try because frankly…I forgot to ._.
REBEL! ONE!

I suppose it did. I had a lot of fun running it! It’s a lot of work to set up though. O_o;
congrats to the winner!
and that was a hilarious 4koma, Rin’s reaction to Nadeko and fetal position L XD haha *bsh! bsh!*
rockleelotus recently posted..“Nendogelion” Preview
You make some epic awesome figure comics too, so I’m very happy that my humble little comic meets your standards of excellence.
Haha, congrats to the winner. Hope you make those girls become a happy addition to your home ^^. I secretly hoped that I would win but dedication surpassed luck xD.
