Hello Armor Gamers!

It's that time again! Spring is a great season full of inspiration, which we are hoping will help you make some great armatars. Now I know that it isn't spring everywhere right now, but it is for the AG office. So how this works is that you can submit your own original armatars to this thread following the theme of Spring. If I like it, I will add it to the 0AP armatar section for all members to use! You can reference previous contests for a better idea of what this is all about here.

Keep in mind that there are some guidelines, and unless your entry follows these set of rules it will not be accepted. So be sure to check those out.

GUIDELINES:
1. Must be appropriate. Cannot be offensive or profane in nature. Try to keep it clean!
2. The entry must be square, and at least 100x100 pixels in dimension.
3. Must scale down well to 100x100. So if it is larger, make sure that it will still look good when it is scaled down to armatar size. A few suggestions about this:
- Sometimes simple is better. If you go into a lot of detail, it might not look as great when you scale it down. So just keep in mind what the final size will be.
- If you are able to do vector, that can help with the sharpness of the image. However, since they are so small this probably isn't a big issue.
4. Must be completely original. You cannot use elements from other piece of artwork, the entire armatar must be 100% original.
5. Must be spring themed.

Good luck! And I look forward to seeing some awesome spring armatars =)

Can you use Photoshop Brush Tools, ie theres a brush tool for grasses...Is this ok? I need a response cause I want to upload mine...

Most likely. It should not be a problem unless that is the only thing there.

Zega, not again. And in Australia it is Autumn, so you cannot judge it by that. It depends where in the world you are.

Two months ago you did not even know what a tablet was. I could do the same with a scanner and a mouse, though. Or a mouse, paint shop pro, and a little time. Or my touchpad and an extreme amount of patience and time.
I like my tabby.

Yes, I am making a lot; the newest was requested by Ice, the other was made because I am 1) lazy as hell, 2) made of random.

As this is not a real contest of sorts, you can. We just want as many armatars we can have, I think.

Does that have to do with anything? NO!... It is embarrassing!

Nice armatar Apocalypse.

Tough the word spring could be written with a darker green.
But nicely done.

I wasn't flaming you about I was just saying it was cool.


Oh no worries. I didn't get the impression that you were flaming or anything. I was just surprised to see that there even WAS a tree dude. A funny coincidence!

Yep. I just now finished one up!


This one I actually did with the tablet on a small scale. I drew it as 100x100 px instead of resizing it. I thought it would be a neat challenge to do. I was thinking of spring personified and 'rising' from the ground like a plant.

Hmm, so I'm guessing you didn't like my Spring Sword, Carlie? Any suggestions to make it better? No one has really commented on it, even bad comments... :/

You might want to make the colors a little less shocking. Aqua and pink don't quite match.
