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.

well how do you make a picture in Paint lol, One pixel at a time, or lots...


Hahaha yeah that explains it.

But just open a new blank thing, and I use air brush with no textures, but trust me, just to get the hang of photoshop takes a while. I used to just use paint for the drawings then edit them with photoshop. But now I'm more comfortable with only using photoshop.

Anyways I use 3D modelling software its sorta like making an artificial world. You have something called a mesh which is basically shapes, you have a light..like a lamp or sumthing then textures and such which give you color, And finally something called a camera which basically is the view point of the renderer. A render basically takes all the things in a scene and processes it into a 2d image...Think of it as a complicated shading program

My exams are coming up in a fortnight, so I'll be bludging off like this for a while yet, heh.

*sniffs at your paper* I don't have written stuff, just a multiple-choice that doesn't count for anything. All my stuff is spoken or done.

Kevin, I'll pwn you by proxy somehow.

Also I'm pretty sure by my time that I'm not meant to judge for another 4 1/2 hour....oh wait. No, my bad :P

I've got to chauffer my mother to a wedding ceremony presently, but when I return I'll do the judging.
