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.

I'm not that arty but I hope this is ok. The quote "the devil dwells within" is from Bill Bailey discusiing his use of an irregular interval for his doorbell.

It is a very special portal that turns spoons into light bulbs (yes that is supoosed to be a light bulb).

I started out with "oh, this is a Rejected reference but how the heck is Cholokid going to put in a banana from portals?" Really caught me by surprise!


Yay! ^^

Yeah, I follow in the footsteps of my traditional art HERO, barfquestion. He can be found here which is where most of my insanity of the drawing comes from. He's like, my idol of all my traditional drawings, and if you look at his daily comic (and animations), you'll see just how crazy I can get. This kinda comes from his "species" as you might call it, called the barfquestions, they're little retarded stick figures that are cut and don't make any sense. They're awesome.

I just noticed Gantic had said this

Who says it's not funny? (Dramatic) Irony is funny, but not as funny as the other stuff in the picture.


I was mainly saying that because I was referring to my own and Cholokids and I had forgotten at the time that you had posted your submission after me,so I tried to make a joke out of it,and...yeah.

That submission just looks like an alien that has a spoon for a head that seems to be coming out of a portal in the ground(keep in mind ArmorHero that you have to have a portal and a spoon both related in the submission,for whatever reason they have for doing that,so if that is not the case then I hope you have a portal somewhere.......man this is a long note in parentheses)but besides that it looks like he is either watching T.V. or parking his space ship.One of those two probably.

No, the door is the portal and he is coming out of a crater... and I'm really not the straight forward type. So, they are related because the alien IS a spoon and there is a portal...

P.s: I despise the new random pair thing, really... it's very irritating!

Personally I agree with you and am hoping this will be the last time,as if it happens with the next theme,I might have to question whether or not to submit anything to it depending on the combo,but seriously you two.I know your a group of judges,but that doesn't mean you have to have a group as your theme.Now I realize the first one wasn't made by you guys so I shall give you a break for now on this,but I'm just saying please don't make the next theme a random combo like this.

It's still amazing how the hell we managed to crank out at least 8 entries though, right?
