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.
@thoad Broke up with my girlfriend. And Photoshop Elements 6.0 + tablet, all the way through. Started with the sky and moved forward in the picture. So far there is 18 layers, 16 of which are visible here...
Hmm....so your tablet is portable then right?That would explain why you were able to do it on a train ride.Anyways I might start using Sasquatch in more of my submissions.The references are so simple and yet so fun to create for some reason.Anyways I get the feeling that the wildlife will have alot of fur in Zophia's picture by the time it is done.Even if it isn't a bunch of Mezzalhs.
I think I counted it to 28 critters on the sketch. And yes, my tablet is very portable. Most tablets are. So that and a lightweight laptop, and it is all good.
28 different types of creatures?Anyways I never owned a tablet so I didn't know for sure,but still that's alot of creatures.Will any of them happen to be a Sasquatch?
hmm....I wonder what the next theme will be....Anyways I get the feeling that there will be at least two mazzelhs and maybe one dragon for some reason.Anyways I'm no psychic so I shall wait and see.
What would you do if strop didn't give it to you,just b/c you said that?I would find it quite ironic.
Oh noes, I've been found out!
KINGRYAN HAD TO LEARN THE HARD WAY D:
@Zophia: I'm going to stay on topic in this thread, so...
Holy crap, that nearly blew me away. Your early morning clouds are so...beautiful.
If I may, if it's possible, I would get rid of the saturated yellow highlight streaks on the sun and lengthen the lighter streaks to go for the lens flare effect...that would make it look more realistic. I also assume you're going to put in some highlights on the blades of grass and the trees?

It's such a pity you can't win this week! xD
Heh, I know the sub is fail right now, I\\m actually planning on doing what you suggested. :P And yep to the highlight thing as well. Also gonna add a tiny bit of highlight to the hills. And texture to the leafs in the foreground if I'm not too lazy.
I'm just happy about the theme being something that really inspires me. I think I could come up with ten potentially awesome ideas. So I'm just happy to participate again. Hurray for that~ plus, there's always honorary mentions, right?
... In case somebody is confused by the amount of typos in that post, it's because my keyboard have decided to pretend it's English (instead of Danish) and I forget to proofread at 5am... Sorry.
ugh, this week is really drulling on, can't tell when the new contest is gonna begin! . . . .there's actually some uh. . . .things in my pic SYMBOLIC! that's the word! Symbolic things in my pic, it mizes modern, future, and primal things inside the earth. It shows how technology and modernizing can both strenghthen and destroy the regular nature of the primal instincts some of us know and love. That is the moral of my pic.
OMG HE WON! I have been flipping all night in boarding watching everything live. Amazing...
Anyways. Man that is one jaw dropping picture, it entices me to learn to paint so well, to say the least. My hat goes off to you Zophia, heck so does my entire outfit if that can be seen as a compliment to the maximum. :P
