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.

Oh the fail in translating...

I don't know Danish, and apparently, neither does Google Translator. >.<

Aren't the medieval items in Ogt's entry from RuneScape? We can take images from copyrighted websites?

Ich spreche Deutsch =P. And Ogt2 your entry is Runescape. Did you really draw that yourself?( sieht sehr nach kopierten Bildern aus) <- only Germans understand that.

guys even though that is a Rune Scape reference, last time I saw the Rune Scape graphics, the art in this piece does not match. Also I have never seen a dragon sword hanging on a wall, with a helmet on top of a shield that has a gold trim, but the most important detail was the strings holding up the wooden bed thing that the runes are all on. It looks like it was drawn with a line tool of some sort, so obviously it was hand drawn,as well as the lines on the helmet are not black, and the lines act like they were drawn with a vector brush in flash or something with the way they are straight, and smooth but none of them are distributed equally, but apparently its so accurate that you guys can't tell the difference.(Truthfully I used to be one of those crazy lvl 64 people who stopped playing after he beat all the quests and didn't want to pay money each month, so I guess I played it for quite a while back in the day) Although Ubertuna yours well....I looked up Raido and yours looks exactly like the original(with an outer glow and a black background). Although it is a fairly simple image so I guess it would be easy to replicate....

I think that Ogt2 actually drew that...but I can't really be sure. I haven't played Runescape in aaaaagggesss. There's probably a good reason for that!

Ermmm....Yo si muerdo.

Yeah, I took copyrighted Runescape images from today's graphics, and I traced them. This took long, so I would appreaciate it if you guys don't really do comments like that. Runescape changed graphics recently, and this took 45 minutes to do. Please don't say I wasted my time doing a pic that will get unqualified

Crimson, I think Cen would have ended up a wizard as well, if I hadn't thought of Rapunzel while drawing > >... Yeti should be happy.

Not correct. I am not German, I still understand it.

Uhm, you didn't. Why should you?
Just saying that it might be a wrong sentence to use?
And yes, it is nearly impossible to see when I am joking > >

Will finish it tomorrow...I suppose the problem has happened now...so there is no more waiting...only pain.
