Hello Armor Gamers!

Spring is finally here! And with the change of the seasons, so arrives the Spring Armatar Contest!

You can submit your own original armatars to this thread following the theme of the Spring. If it meets our quality standards, I will add it to the 1AP armatar section for all members to use! You can reference previous contests for a better idea of what this is all about here. You can also check out a few select returning Spring armatars from 2009 in the 5AP section.

There are some guidelines, and unless your entry follows these set of rules it will not be accepted.

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 great armatars =)

*now?

I think you should work on the bottom of the flower. It looks too fake compared to the rest, try and make it look like it is growing.

No, you can make as much as you want. In summer I made like 5, 3 made it, but the 5th was too late. D:

I agree, but I wasn't really sure how I'd go about making it look more organic. I decided to try and make it wind some more but it looks a bit strange. To cover it up I added two small leaves. Does it look better now? :>

@EliteMagical

Can the flower be bigger? On 50 x 50 armatar size the flower is going to look like a speck.

I'll try but I think then it'll look a bit disproportionate. I'll see what I can do and if I think it looks good I'll try . . . Again. -_-

Lol, nope! I just like to wait a little while after it starts to start putting them up, so there are more to choose from. Get a nice list going from the beginning ) No worries! I haven't forgotten about you!
