SUSHI CAT!!!

Here are the usual rules and guidelines to help you...

ARMATAR CONTEST GUIDELINES :

ne: All entries must be appropriate. They cannot be offensive or profane in nature. Keep it clean!
The entry must be square and at least 512x512 pixels in dimension.
Your entry must scale down well to 100x100. So if it looks good in its larger form, make sure that it will still look good when it is scaled down to the armatar size. Here are a few suggestions about this :
Sometimes keeping it simple is better. If you go into a lot of detail, it might not look as great when you scale it down. So keep in mind what the Armatar size will be and check often how it looks when it is scaled down.
Remember to save a lot while you are making it! Better to delete 20 -in between made- save files later on, than ending up with a finished piece you don't like or an end result that is showing up blurred when scaled down...
If you are able to do vector, by all means! That can help with the sharpness of the image. However, since they are small in Armatar size, this is probably not a big issue.
All entries must be fitting to the current contest's theme. If a certain entry is debatable to whatever extend, a Mod or Admin will give the decisive and final ruling for submission.
An entry must be completely original. You cannot use entire (or even elements from) pieces of artwork made by someone else, the entire armatar must be 100% created by you! A Moderator can ask you to provide conclusive proof that the entry was created by you entirely and you are obligated to provide this when asked for.

Plagiarism will not only exclude your submission by means of disqualification, it will also exclude you from participation in any future contests AND will have further consequences!

CLOSING DATE OF THIS CONTEST :

This contest will remain open from 09/19/2015 'till 10/18/2015!!

WINNING SUBMISSIONS :

Every participant of an official edition of the Armor Games' Armatar Contest receives a well deserved Merit for submitting one -or more- entries to every separate edition held. This means a maximum of one Merit per participant, per edition.

Alongside this Merit for your participation, we now have a special non-game Quest to award for the winning submissions of the Armor Games' Armatar Contest!! This special Armatar Creator Quest will be bestowed upon the creators of the winning entries that were chosen for every contest held from now on. The winners will receive this Quest to show our appreciation for their outstanding work. Wear this Quest with pride!
Winners will be chosen after the edition is officially closed;
The winning entries are non-debatable, results are final;
The Armatar Creator Quest can only be awarded once per user. If a particular user wins another edition, they will not receive this Quest again, as Quests can not be achieved a second time;
As a special appreciation for their outstanding work, all the winners and their winning entries of every edition will be placed into the Armatar Creator Quest Winners Hall of Fame!

EXTRA PRIZE

We will randomly pick one username from all winning submissions and this user will... *drum roll* ...
WIN THEIR VERY OWN SUSHI CAT PLUSHY!!!

You can submit the artwork by posting it in this thread as an image. There must be a link in order for the image to show up, so you must first upload it to a site where you can get a direct link. I use postimage.org, but there are other sites you can use such as tinypic and photobucket. The image must be 512x512 and your own original artwork.

@reptilejh aside from what Arm_Candy stated above, since this is an armatar contest, the images will be made public as armatars for anyone to use. So you also need to upload the image scaled down to 100x100.

This is the image you were talking about @reptilejh, correct?

Exactly how @Arm_Candy and @Doombreed explained above, you can submit your entry here in this thread, but it has to be (at least) 512x512 in order for us to use it as an Armatar, ok?

Looks great btw! Well done!

I fixed the links for you @reptilejh. You need to use a link that has the .png or .jpg at the end, or it won't be recognized as an image, but seen as a url. That is why they weren't showing up!

Also, the first one is indeed 512x512 pxl, but the second one is only 400x400 pxl...
