Everyone is welcome to try, but, as with 3d art, don't count on me being completely unbiased when judging.

Don't worry Cen. I would have done the same thing.

Would not have allowed the rage comic

Haha, I probably would not have allowed it even if he had sourced it. I could make that in 10 seconds. Plus it wasn't his. I swear I have seen it before.

And I disagree that the themes need to be more specific.

So is my theme OK? You can change it if you really hate it.

And just so you know Cen, I didn't see your post before posting mine. So anything we said similar is just awesome people thinking alike.

Also I don’t understand why to the side of the tree it is darker then to the left of the tree. The drawing of SlenderMan is good, even though I don’t know much about him. Try working on the background next time and it will be a lot better.

watch a few documentaries on him,then you will know why the picture looked so strange.Slenderman sends people insane with his tricks,thus making the person looking at the picture think that they are not seeing it correctly.Meaning that slender is near,and he has chosen you for his next game.

Well if he plays tricks then you could have made the image blurry. Or added somethings that looked like they could be there but shouldn't.

Erm... Just askin'... How many characters do you think is enough for a collage?

I was planing to draw a group of characters and wonder how much i should put in there.

I have no idea how to judge something, where it isn't the concept that comes from one source, but the medium and presentation that has to be the same.
I also would have no idea how to enter this round, which tends to be my final decision making factor in choosing a theme.

So, well.
No idea. I guess it's up to people to figure something out.

Note: Would have been nice with a link back to the last judging, like I do. Then people can see the former judgings, without having to deal with looking through a number of pages.

No, you can draw stuff to make a collage.

As many as you want. Collages tend to not have much negative space, at least in my mind. So it is up to you.

I feel like I failed you Cen.

Nah, stuff happens, I am sure I will wing it has good or bad as anyone entering this round.
Who said the judge shouldn't be challenged as well?

The link would have been nice, though.

If you are going to be alternative and use a programme where you are not actually creating the majority of what is on the picture (that is, using a custom brush you downloaded to draw stuff, or use rage faces or something), you really need something extraordinary and awesome to not get shrugged at an ignored from my side.

I guess it does matter what the judge sees as extraordinary. I remain unimpressed from seeing most art despite the fact that 99% of the time it's better than anything I could ever create, but a RCT2 creation, if it's better than anything I've ever made, never fails to impress me.

Nonetheless, RCT2 art probably does not fit in this contest anyway because most people who aren't avid players of the game could care less about the in-game creations of others. Which is why it needs a contest of its own, except I'd probably be the only participant, and that wouldn't work too well seeing as I'd also be the judge.
