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.

Click image for fullview.

I'm not gonna be able to shade the critters before the deadline (mainly because I'm tired of working on this), so... Well, I like how they look as silhouettes anyway, so it's all okay.

Zophia looking at this I am actually glad you can't win this week,b/c that would almost be a guaranteed win in my opinion.I typically don't go all "OMG AWESOMENESS GREAT JOB!!!!!!1!!!" or whatever,but I'm quite impressed with that.The reason why I'm glad is b/c then it wouldn't be as close of a contest for everyone else.

I just realized I screwed up on some shading, so I resubmitted the fullview, but I'm not gonna correct the small version.
So please, click the image to see the image with shading beneath the critters. It does look better...

@Cenere:
I hope to see that too...
And not only akker. Mazzelh, eeynanoopa, hikrauhn, anacouf, puffer, sjihnthlob, bandweh, andlib, a little flying critter, something that's related to a snets, and a worm creature... Those are all named, but the names have slipped my memory. >.> And the plants... They're named too...

@crimsonblade:
Hehehe~ I think I'll get an honorary mention... I think... Maybe...

I know you love them.

Since they are technically love birds, I suppose that's a good thing.

@ Strop:

Yes that was done in the last week, but all the levels were designed over the month. That is one that was around the time of the competition.

It's not quite time yet, by my books...Zoph, if you'd like it shouldn't at all be a stretch to wait a few hours, if you feel like finishing.

Otherwise we do look forward to seeing the finished product at some point.

On that note, judging is soon. Ish.

I would love to join! Yet my Tablet is very crappy, and my Gimp is either working or not (mostly not) and my scanner doesn't work with my Mac! So problems, problems!

@Strop:
It will have to be as it is. In a way I'm really liking the way it is now anyway (I love silhouette based drawings), and I don't feel like working any more on it... Yet. It shall be finished eventually, and I'll be sure to show it to everyone here.
