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.

nuuuu, seppuku! After playing seepkuties I now know what seppuku is. . .only I think your supposed to stab yourself in the belly stead the face. . .. lol. As for the DM's, it's like getting turd of the week on NG. Sometimes ya want it lolz. As for the Steve Irwin guy, I'd be kinda hurt =(. At one point in my life I actually wanted to be just like him lol. So he was my tiny childhood hero at one point. . .so ya, you'd have someone on your hate list.

it takes 30 years for a tragedy to become funny *obscure South Park reference*


Hahahaha when I read 30 years for a tragedy to become funny I immediately went to south park, I remember that. ROFL! I usually go for 10 years though.

Also, sn***** is censored because this particular filtered word doesn't detect it as part of a word...but I can petition to have this fixed.


Usually that word is spelled Snicker and that should be let that way, I don't think there is an urgent need to fix that word when its one letter off from being derogatory and you have a word that is just as good.

Well, there are two things:

Samurai was a class thing- you were born into being a noble warrior. Ninja was an occupation associated with a type of martial art (ninjutsu), and most ninja were generally not born noble. You can't become a samurai through being a ninja, but you can become a ninja while being a samurai.

I'm not sure of the intricacies of it but I imagine that at some period, ninja under the employ of an authority would also be at least loosely honor bound under some circumstances. Don't quote me on that one...at the very least there would definitely be some circumstances in which they had to perform suicide for the sake of preserving a mission.

You just now figured out I was using GIMP?Also I am not using the airbruch tool,but instead the confetti brush on the paintbrush tool.I was kind of lazy with the barber though.
