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.

That has already been done a long time ago, before the Art Skills competition.

@crimson

Yeah, that's the one I based my image off of. I approximated the angles and tried to get the best match I could without tracing it.

I am pretty sure it can be hand drawn if that is the first rule. ThoadtheToads entries to my knowledge are all hand drawn, as well as possibly some others. So the answer to your question is, as far as I am aware, yes you can submit hand drawn images.

This took an unbelievably long time, I am known for rushing things and not giving a second glance back. Here you go.

Tis' a young lad out, ready in the armor of a knight, being granted some powerful magic by a fairy he needs should he defeat the demon that has already destroyed the great castle. the demon is proceeding towards the village in the mountain. Will the hero succeed in defeating him?

Suspenseful, isn't it? O_o

If you need to know, I first drew it out on paper, scanned it, realized it was too light, outlined all the lines darker, scanned it again, tried coloring it with GIMP, failed many times, finally came up with this. The outlines may have at least three different colors in them, but don't pay too much attention to that. >.<

When I saw fairytale, I was like, adventure. Then adventure went to medieval fantasy. Then this popped into my mind. Simultaneous, yeah. I like the right side of my brain. O.-

Anything wrong with double-posting today?

You're not hated....Just sometimes you do things that people dislike....or annoy people.

Here you go.

There are 16 references to fairy tales in this image. Whoever can pick all of them wins a cookie.

Do it like this:

Cow - Why the cow ate the cheese. (Example...not actual answer)

Enjoy!
