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.

But I'll admit that some think two brush strokes and fifty filters means they've made a drawing, and that I think those people are wrong.


Hmm....you mean LIKE THIS!!!!!

See, this is why I am not supposed to make lighthearted and joking posts....
You make too many srs and depressed posts for me to realize when you're trying to joke..

Also, that may have been the most typo'd judging post evah.

Recent: meant resent...

hmm you know I don't know how,but I didn't even see this whole entire page...

Art, Music and Writing section logic!


Actually, your statement was veritably unsane. try the Neverending Story if you're unsane enough. And nao I'm bweediiiiing. . .Zoph. . .modviolence. I guess it's legal in the art forum. Then again, if -mods- are offtopic and non-PG 13 here, then who knows what the hell will happen. I should practice in GiMP and make an AMW character. . .I suck at anything but hand-drawing though.

I bring to you, my friends, BLOBIOUS!
But first, here's his backstory with a tl;dr.

Yes, it's an actual character I have, I've had him for a while but couldn't exactly get his essence I wanted on paper until now. So here's his backstory:

Blobious came from a meteor from the asteroid belt. He started off as just a little oozy thing with two deep depressions in his lime green body that he calls eyes. He's devoid from all memories, but doesn't even notice he has amnesia. The first thing he see's is a comic book, Superman, and he reads it carefully and intentfully while it's in him (he picks things up by "Glorping" It into him, where he can better interact with it). Finding that Superman is a superhero, the first thing he wants to do is to become a superhero himself!

So he does, he attacks a mugger and steals his bandana after suffocating him with his goo, and he made a cape out of it. He then stole a boy scout badge from a boy scout trying to sell him cookies. Thus blobious was born.

Blobious may look like a cute crime fighter, but he's not as good at his job than he may think. He's actually a terrible crime fighter, as most criminals can get away without him noticing. Little kids like to hug him, but most of the time accidentally gets glorped in. Blobious lives in a box yet saves enough money to give to charity. How he gets all his money? Well, when he swishes/rolls around the ground, he picks up all sorts of nice things, dollar bills, coins, and one time a few pieces of gold that fell from a young womans window.

Blobious is good at heart, just a little dim-witted. He can speak english, but it took him near a year just to say "Blobious". He doesn't know much else besides his alien language, of which his race is on earth, hiding deep under the sea or in caves/caverns. Most Blorbussus (Blobious' species) can transform into just about anything they want, but sadly blobious has none of those powers due to his terrible loss of memory.

Blobious normally looks tired but is just normally distracted, like the piece of gun he accidentally glorped up or the fly on a mans head.

tl;dr: Blobious is a cute superhero but isn't very good at his job.
now the image!

I have only 'whut' to say to this one. Normally your entries are flying high, but this one went over my head.
It's very pleasing graphics, though.


Obviously Obliqua won.

*silence*

Obviously I don't think anyone shares my sense of metahumor.

I think I'd share it if I understood it without needing hints every time.
