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 =)

Now, I need inspiration for another one, just one. Not another tree or flower, something else...
Hmm...

A cute fat caterpillar!!! X-D

I really wanted to do one, but I don't have the time. So someone should totally make one.

Hey thanks Carlie, I'm glad you liked my entries. =)

Although, my favorite Armatar, (the bird singing) has been replaced by this. http://armorgames.com/image/armatar_258_60.60_c.jpg

Thanks again.

It just sort of stood out because none of the other ones have shaded borders.

Well that was the exact point of it, but mainly I just don't like the plain background. I liked it better with the gradient like this:

That's how I felt but there's nothing we can do but try harder...

I really thought that atleast one would have gotten chosen.

I like the dead tree one, Jrmagic. Not really on the spring-y side, but still very cool!

Keep trying man, the only reason she didn't pick it, is because it wasn't good enough. Using this logic, try to make something better!

I can do that!
Just like the song!

Exams and all, I would still like to see some of your artwork.

Whoa! I love the flower man, jr. It looks awesome. One problem, though, is that the sun is in the corner, yet light is shining down from above. If you took out the sun, it'd be perfect.

yeah I am going to go with what dragon said. The light is shining down from the wrong direction it seems. If you took out the sun, or changed the direction in which the sunlight is beaming down then it would be perfect.

Got it ;-) I will add the one with the gradient up.

I am going to be so glad when school is over... lol. But I'm really not that good at drawing. Sometimes I like to do some small drawings, but nothing special ;-P
