Hello!
Recently I've been looking into OCTs, and noticed that there are a bunch of entries missing. Although there are many of them, I really wanted to focus on a very specific contestant, who's only ever had two comics and an intro, with seemingly no pictures of those 3 remaining.
The character in question is Euria 'Sad Sunday', created by DeviantArt user Marcks for the Law of Talos OCT (Original Character Tournament). He dropped out first round, because the artist failed to finish the entry on time. Unfortunately, later on Marcks has almost fully wiped his profile, leaving the finished intro to fade away into obscurity. Until suddenly, the OCT became popular again, and now there's a demand for contents of all the contestants, and Euria is out of luck.
To preface this, I'd like to say that all original pages for the posts are archived through the Internet Archive, linked below:
Intro page
First page of the comic
Second page of the comic
But unfortunately, none of the images saved correctly. Although there is a small snippet of the character sheet available in this chart right here, he's the green haired guy on the left side, 8th (9th if you count the second icon of the two girls below) from the top if counting by icons. That might as well be the only image we have of those artworks.
Although, he has been featured in other contestants' works as well. Most notably, unknown-person's final round animation (Youtube), where he appears at 11:12. He is also featured at the very bottom of the comic entry for the same round, where he clearly plays a more major role, but that isn't expanded on.
I guess what I'm mostly looking for is, while it's clear that the images were not archived, a chance someone has them saved as a reference for a fan work, or just general character/art inspiration. Or maybe it has been reposted on another website, where it saved properly, but it's just not showing up in searches. Genuinely, if there's any way to get hands on these entries, it'd be great.
Thank you in advance ^_^
