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.

Eventyr is fairy tales. It is actaully more commonly used as fairy tale than adventure.

hey..what do you ask about fairytale elements on every picture?
adventure or eventyr, äventyr....is not a fairytale :P
JereN, we explained this when the theme was announced. You can go back and look at it.

A "fabel" is somewhat the same as an "eventyr", but not exactly. Small difference, but it is there...

Celebs, huh? Does it have to be a real celebrity, or some made up person?
If you want to make an entry about an imaginary celebrity, that is fine. The choice is yours.

Since I care very little for cvelebrities in general, it would be a bad idea to just make a drawing portraying some random celebrity. Make more of the theme than that, please.

What?! I dont generaly draw real people! Those usualy just turn out crappy... except for that time I drew my science teacher when I was bored. I spent a long time making his bald spot look shinier than it already is. Besides, I don't really like to go out of my way to make celebrities look good.

With the current theme, I wonder how long it will be until some egoistical user posts a pic of him/herslef.

Eventyr, there.
1) A tale with a supernatural or fantastic content and usually with a happy ending.
HC Andersen's eventyr, eventyret om Roedhaette og den stygge ulv.
2) An exciting and often dangerous experience which lies far from every day life.
3) A short affair of love.

And just for the fun of it: (from wikipedia) Is today more used about the litterary genre.
Originally meaning adventure, actually.

And a fabel is something different.
