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.
*deep tired sigh* And I thought it would have been done by now. And the school net work does not work atm, so I have no idea when I am to be at school tomorrow morning... Oh well, I guess this means the judging is delayed untill tomorrow.
Well, I will poke you about this in the morning, if it is not there. Hopefully we can get it done by noon, if you are awake, and I am not stressing about school, seeing I still cannot access the intranet.
Why not just make a AG Community Theme, or dare I say it...them!!!!(No I don't know who "them!!!" is referring to, I just thought it would make for an interesting theme)Anyways I shall continue to wait for judgment...btw did the procrastination have anything to do with being on the XAT chat earlier today Zophia?
Belated judging, yay. Also, I'm skipping school to get this done now... Cause I'm stupid like that and stuff. And even though Cen is now online and we could technically do it together, I hate that I so often procrastinate away from responsibility and just don't get anything done. So... I judge alone anyway.
First, we have the Champion's Exhibit. Which kingryan seems very aware that he got.
I guess that's basically what there is to say about that.
On the topic of Dreams... The theme this week... I find it really difficult to judge this, because dreams are so - strange, often. I've been having rather detailed and interesting dreams for a couple of nights, telling me stories... Fascinating, but also such a variable thing. Therefore I won't go into comments of interpretation of the entries that aren't obvious jokes or just spelled out pretty clearly. This judging is based on the vibe from the pic, which possibly isn't a fair way to judge as it is merely my opinion, but just this round you're gonna have to put up with that.
First place goes to: Gantic
Frozen landscape and eternity symbol? Hmm~ As said, not really any comment. I often don't have any comments for gantic's works, but just because I see nothing to say about them doesn't mean they're not good. Obviously? And looks like you were having fun with a digital spatula. :3
Second place: Cenere
Though the - shading aid crotch lines should possibly have been removed for a more smooth image, well. And I really hope no one gets upset about Cen's pic placing (since Cen is usually co-judge), but I just think it's well done. And good image of a dream creature...
Third place: crimsonblade55
Sasquatch is having dark dreams? Figment of subconsciousness seeming a little too real? For a technical remark, it might be too dark for less bright monitors. Though the raging Sasquatch's ability to disappear into the darkness when I tilt my screen is kinda cool.
Everything else in random order
Apocalypse
I'm not sure if there's a joke or if I get it if there is, but the idea of water leaking into reality from is dream is quite interesting.
Ogt2
Seems oddly surreal, and looks like it has an interesting dreamscape~
Zega
I think this might be the entry of yours I've liked best so far. So you should posibly have credited someone for the cubes in the background.
Cholokid
Ah yes, the Hitler entry. So he thought it was a dream, but it actually wasn't, or he dreamt it while it happened or ... Dreams being a little too real are always an interesting theme to ponder upon.
ShintetsuWA
You have very abstract dreams? Abstract in the sense of spurs of light in endlessly twisting patterns. Maybe~ Is this the first time we've had a typical signature pic as an entry?
thisisnotanalt
Interpretation, you say? Hmm...
thoadthetoad (s)Link(y)~ Dreaming of becoming a mod, little Thoadling? That, and a *vocabulary fail* ... Chainsaw! Ban chainsaw~
Pixie214
IDs are horribly greedy things, aren't they?
And finally...
fst6
Well... Good to know.
I hope that wasn't too bad of a judging. Cenere will come up with a theme and post it shortly~
