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 saying it's the only reason, I'm just sorta convinced that you enjoy the fact that it works that way.


Half the fun is in naming it. The largest group of entries are named directly after the theme. The second largest group are named directly after the what's in the picture.

Functional? What the heck? (I made up the file names but I'm pretty sure a couple of those are actual file names or close.) At least I didn't go with an idea codenamed barmey.

Also, it is not just random.


The Purple Injection has to be the worst Danish indie band I've never heard (of).

I did not know there was such a band. But lol.
Actually I think yours might be closer to what I referenced it to than most others. I'm not sure, though, since I never know how you think your entries.

I always like seeing the more creative filenames~

But it us fugly! And not very creative... On the other hand I never win with the drawings I feel just a little proud of... But this one is really on the limit... Good thing I cannot win, I think.

JereN: AUGH WTF ROFL. I *am* smexy in that outfit!

Gantic: if that line were going backwards I'd call it a classic Wolff-Parkinson-White.

Typical Zeganess...All in all a good picture for your standards *ahem*.

Though art is always so subjective, people migh actually reckon it's the best.

Nope! It just keeps on going and going and going...
