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.

OK, well I'm finally finished with my submission,and I do think it is one of the best ones so far as far as artistically.It took me quite a while to get the 3D effects just right to export into GIMP, then to draw the characters and their faces the exact way I wanted them, then I had to get creative with my use of the fresco style effect.In the end I came up with something so complex instead of having just a title it also has a background story.

Background Story
Eventually Yeti asked where Sasquatch got his original cursed Bell pepper,and seeing as how he didn't want her to know what happened(the barber incident)he made up a story for her.He is quite a good liar so to this day, as far as she knows he used to be called "The Crimson Sasquatch" and found it flying with wings of fire over a road in the sky.She just assumed the smile on his face was from pleasant nostalgia

@Gantic:
I've really come to respect you as an artist, in many ways. Just thought I'd mention that.

*agrees with Cenere* Really nice expression.

Really nice expression.


That expression was one of the hardest things to create in the whole picture.I think I ended up having to recreate it more than 5 times before I got it right.The Crimson Sasquatch expression was the second hardest thing to create,although I still think it could have been better.Either way the reason why it was so difficult I guess is because I am not used to drawing her from the front view but typically from the side,and have never really been able to define what a front view of her face outside of a battle looks like.I am glad you guys like it though.

Kingryan, the reason I remember it so well is because Brian does the PBJT dance to try and cheer Peter up. It caught me completely off-guard and I forget the rest of the episode because I spent several minutes rofl.

pwaaarghhh I've been caught out. Multiple times!

* I did that kage bunshin joke as a multi-level pun for Art Contest round: "Your Name".

* Cenere drew Strop in colour and I said it was him doing a rasengan.

* That "mask under a mask" joke actually comes from Yakitate!! Japan. Not Naruto.

Interesting how this competition has become more and more aimed at Strop... I suppose that is a side effect of the way he judges?


If by that you mean 'I react more amusingly to people taking swipes at me' then maybe, but note that nobody ever won by taking a swipe at me >:3

...except you Zophia. And that was once.

yeah, your TOTALLY one for bestiality your freaky pony-anthro-kitty-man thing.


Okay, seriously. How does making vaguely homoerotic puns (like Parsat gets away with) make me somebody who's into bestiality? >_o What on earth are you on, Thoad? Hmm?
