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.

Nice job i don't quite understand what is going on though.


Hmm I just noticed that part.I am now compelled to tell you whats going on.If you look back to page 316.That was the original entry of mine.This is a sequel to that entry.That one was a joke based on the "the cake is a lie" thing from the original portal game.In this one Sasquatch my character(He is not a bear...)see's the spoon on the other side of a portal,and is commenting about it.The bell pepper was just added in as a random joke.

hmm you used a special filter for that didn't you?I found a filter on GIMP once by accident that can make an effect that looks a bit like that.I have to say it looks nice.

No i made the circles. Then filled the centers with white. Then i took the smudge tool and went crazy. If you can't figure out what the gray thing is its a spoon. I tried to make a hand about to go between the portals but it came out bad.

hmm smudge tool...makes sense I guess.I used the smudge tool with my portal after all.I knew the grey thing was the spoon though,and....in fact you pretty much made your portals the same way I made mine....interesting.

It seemed like the easiest way. I might draw another and color it.

The original photo came from here and if Strop or Zophia or whatever mod doesn't like that then I'll just go out and buy a box to take a picture of. lol Except I'm a cheapskate and don't really feel like doing that.

From the very first post in this thread, regarding the rules:
1. Must be hand drawn, either on paper or in a program.


Also, I don't see a spoon in your entry.

To the rest of you: YAY!
Expect crazy judging tomorrow. Both Cen and me continue to not get enough sleep, so it shall be entertaining~

Sorry Zophia, I realized I screwed up just after I posted it. lol
Here's a redone one on GIMP. And the spoon is implied, how else do you eat "Chell" Pasta (i.e. the main character of Portal)? Unless of course, it's baked pasta.
