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.

@Zophia:
Probably. But translating gaard nisse to yard gnome?

Sure, Deth, but probably not here, I guess? Since we are widely off topic (Carlie didn't scold us, Carlie didn't scold us~~). Okay, mental image, be true!

Off topic much?

How come I start at least half of the off topic lines of conversation...... It seems that way at least.

And yes, deth, post a link! Hey, going off topic enough in a certain direction has already set the theme twice~
I just hope Strop doesn't feel too exasperated when he has to dig through page after page of this.

My "forum smack in the back of my head" sense is tingling!!

Okay, I can get back on track! I am sure.... Cartoon.... Cooomic... Christmas!!
... I failed, did I not? It must be the itch in my butt distracting me. The bandages make it itch TT TT...

I did it again...

Okay. Cartoons.
I am waiting for Strop's picture to be uploaded, so I can get a feeling of what the kitten the theme was about.

Of "what the kitten this theme was about"? Your swearing is even cuter than Strop's!

@deth4:
I really do find your drawing style quite interesting, good work~ Though the mushroom lines doesn't really match the nisse~

Yep, another fail to be on topic. But there haven't been any entries after Klaushouse' anyway~

@deth4:
Yep, GIMP is free and a vast improvement over Paint, though it can take some time getting used to.

And Strop should at least pop online briefly within the next ten hours, unless something IRL is keeping him off...

Anywho. I'm going to bed. Pretty much same reason as Cenere. :P

Hi guys sorry I wasn't on yesterday but I had this...uhm...secret mission. Okay, I mean party.

And what the fish!?

...If it isn't too much trouble, could everybody please post their official entries? I actually can't tell from all the links what is on-topic and what's not ;..;

Although this:

Off topic much?


Made it all worthwhile.

I will judge this when people have reposted, and I finish what I was planning. I've been working on MWT entries though, so it may take an extra day or so.
