Hi,

Some of you may remember the Art Skills Competition(ASC) that died some time ago, and there has been no succesful drawing art competition since it died. It died because there was no judge and other reasons, but I joined in the last 2 rounds of that competition and I have to say that I miss it.

So, I decided to have go at making another arty competition of that kind. And every succesful contest must have a set of rules.

1. You must not use artwork that belongs to any other person other than yourself

2. The artwork must be visual, not literary or audible. It can be a photo manipulation or drawing or other.

3. The deadline is 2 weeks from the setting of a new theme

4. You can submit more than one artwork, but must say which is your final

5. You must follow the theme

6. Anyone who fails to follow the first rule will be first warned, if repeated, then suspended for a round and then 2, and then banned until further notice.

7. The will be up to 5 awards each round which may vary, except for the 1st place award and Scenery award(background).

For anyone that would like to enter here's the Programs you could use alongside many others:

GIMP - free
Paint
Photoshop(costs)
Corel Painter(costs)

This round's Theme is

....
...
..
.

Ninjas

The 2 varying awards for this round are:

Weapon award
Stealth award

I will be the judge, so I won't enter

Hope this works

I was tempted to add wheels just because of the "Especially with wheels" part of the dictionary-entry.

Is the judging today? I'm a bit wonderous as to what the next topic will be. The eventuality of it was that I couldn't come up with anything I liked for an unreal vehicle so I made no submission (though in the interest of creative practice I should have forced myself to create something anyways).

Well, anything tha t comes to mind when you hear the word 'colourful', this contest is about creativity, not adhereing to an insanely strict theme, I try to pick themes that aren't exactly precise and one that are unusal.

Anything that comes to mind when I say colorful.

I had several concepts in mind. A butterfly on a straw of grass, a lightshifter falling into a world...
But, then this came into mind.
This is inspired by "The Road" and the huge amount of grey it had (Seriously, I had to watch some Fantasia afterwards, because all the colour was gooooone), and the - coke incident.
And no, no "Coca Cola" or anything, but it looked odd when I tried to add it, and I don't actually have one to look at for reference, so just plain red, orange, yellow, purple and blue. And tons of grey.

Ok manny another thing in the OP you said it had to be a visual artwork. So an animation would be OK? However I have an idea about a drawing too, only I don't know if I'll be able to post it.
