Hello and welcome!

This is a spin-off of the original GFX Art Battle, but with some updated rules and changes. Please make sure to read the rules before entering, since they have been modified. Good luck, we look forward to seeing some creative artistic entries!

Competition Rules
1. Must be hand drawn, either on paper or in a program. It can then be manipulated in an graphics program. But unoriginal artwork cannot be used as the main focus. Copyrighted images cannot be used. All pieces containing copyrighted images will be disqualified.
2. Submissions must follow the current theme that has been chosen by a moderator for that week. If you submit more than one piece, please clarify which one you would like to be judged.
3. If your image is larger than 600 pixels wide, please provide a link to the image instead of posting it in the forum. Otherwise, the image will be cut off.
4. Artists cannot win in subsequent weeks. You can still submit, but if you won the week before, you cannot get first place again the next week.
5. After the deadline, a moderator will pick the winner, and they will be awarded a 25 AP award.

WTF, I can't draw this theme? Has this suddenly turned into a comic book competition? :P I'm just kidding... I'll see what I can do!

That was a good example of an lolwhut entry, crimson. The Sasquatch is amusing, as always. Btw, his nickname should be StropStrap. (Stropstrap--the best in jockstrap technology!)

It's funny. All of the sasquatch drawings are a bit confuzzling at first, but in a good way

Also, cool program. Haven't tried it, but it appears to be able to produce what looks like a blend between a Photoshop and a Corel Painter image.

That is pretty much what it does, or so I've read. It isn't close to being as good as it could be (bugs and all that), which is the reason it isn't on version 1 yet. Because of this, I don't think what I did with the picture (whatever that may be) in the version I have can be done with the latest version because it seems to have been caused by a shortcoming in how the algorithm works for transparent layers, which was probably corrected (to some extent).

I really wish I knew how your thought processes work, Gantic.

I don't know why but it seems everyone wants to know how I think. It's not like I am a genius or something.

Every entry so far seems to have the words "I can't draw this" in various versions, some including WTF. Interesting.

When I stare at my entry, it is staring back at me.

It';s just because the way you seem to thin perplexes a good deal of the users on AG. I'd say I've scoped your writing out pretty well, but your visual art is still befuddling, yet good. . . . . .

XD Well, at least you got a good result from it~

No, but your way of expressing yourself seem a bit out of the box and interesting~
You may not be a genius, but you do seem intelligent, and your ability to make abstract art is - intriguing. *pokes your thought processes with an imaginary stick*

It's staring at me too. o o

It's kind of like the eye of Sauron. It's constantly staring at me. Almost as though it's whispering "you can't draw this" to me. 0_o
