Manifest's International Drawing Annual competition shits money

I will kick myself if I don't submit at least one something good to the Inda 6 Annual Competition. Last year's winners had some really tight drawings, which only serve to intimidate me and to convince myself that it's not even worth trying.  I wish all the preexisting pieces that I have weren't considered more paintings than drawings.  In addition to making a drawing specifically for this competition (if reviews and Xmas traveling allow me), I might submit a series of animals shitting money that I paintdrew and wheat-pasted up last spring:

Dog Shitting Money, mutt dog sized (I didn't get the dimensions, shoot me)or about 36" tall, ink, conte, and charcoal on paper with screen-printed moneyturds, 2010.  This one was on the wall surrounding the MSPCA.  They really have their act together; it was removed within 12 hours.

 Coon Shitting Money, coon sized or about 24" tall, ink, conte, white gauche and charcoal on paper with screen-printed moneyturds, 2010.  It was on South Huntington, near the South Huntington and Huntington intersection. Some weenie ripped this one's butt off within 12 hours of me putting it up.  Other than that, this was the longest survivor: about two months.
Fox Shitting Money, fox sized or about 24" tall, ink, conte, and charcoal on paper with screen-printed moneyturds, 2010.  This one was at the top of the hill on Fisher Ave.  I put it up in the middle of the day with no problems, because college cops would roll by that area literally every five minutes at night.
