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 =)
Um, sooo... Is there still something wrong with my sword? I thought a sword would suit AG and I tried to make it more spring-ish, but I haven't really seen any comments after the couple from IWazBord. Any other things to make it better?
I don't really see anything wrong with the sword. If I was a better artist then I am now I would surely be drawing that sword in the stone thing I mentioned.
Do you think I should try and do that? Also, I'm going to change the colors of the sword I've already posted to make them compliment each other better. I'm gonna wait to see if there's more suggestions first, though.
It would fit AG imo, and it'll be related to spring also (to me it does xP). If you want to try it go ahead, I'm not the artist here. xP I might try to draw something though... Wish me luck xD.
@thoadthetoad I like the overall look of it. I like the colours; it is cool the way the sky fades and isn;y just a flat boring colour while the towers are a cold uniform grey. It makes a nice contrast. My brain can't decide if the ground goes up and down or back and forth but either way it makes a good effect. I like the look of the drooping flower and I would have it as an armatar of my current one wasn;t so dang good
(sorry if this looks bad but my IE deleted the commnent when I clicked submit so I'm trying to remember what I put)
Did you not see the original version of that armatar? I am pretty sure its not stolen since that one was drawn according to suggestions made by Carlie.
Anyways I want to make another one for this contest, but I can't think of anything else to draw. I thought of a butterfly, but we already had one of those before this contest.Hmm... I'm sure I'll think of something eventually.
