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.

Right so I just for some reason realized that entries are being allowed now for this theme. I did this on the day that the theme was put up, and I didn't want to bother with realism at the time, so I decided to go for the opposite. A weird 3-D'ish image that concentrates more on dialogue.

uhh...yeah...

I got a few questions about the 2 rounds at once.

1. Can you win both?
2. If you win the cute one, can you participate in the one after the Equines?
3. Actually I only had 2 questions.

It would be a more fair competition if we had three judges who gave each artwork one rating. That way, it wouldn't be completely based on one person's opinion, and it would give judging more thought.

Sasqaush!!! i dunno if thats right spelling? In all fairness how long has there been one judge....we can do a vote of popularity to give some weight to a piece and force...in a nice way the judge to think about a piece more....lol

Hmm, as long as the judges have a good sense of art. I actually would rather not have Zophia and Cenere as judges because I would rather have them participate in the ASC.

Also, look at King Ryan's judging contest, there are some people who show good potential to be judges.

no they dont need to physically award them to users. they just need to judge the entries and the minner will get one from a mod. but the judges dont have to be mods.
