Hello and welcome!

This is a spin-off of the original GFX Art Battle, but with some updated rules and changes. Please make sure to read the rules before entering, since they have been modified. Good luck, we look forward to seeing some creative artistic entries!

Competition Rules
1. Must be hand drawn, either on paper or in a program. It can then be manipulated in an graphics program. But unoriginal artwork cannot be used as the main focus. Copyrighted images cannot be used. All pieces containing copyrighted images will be disqualified.
2. Submissions must follow the current theme that has been chosen by a moderator for that week. If you submit more than one piece, please clarify which one you would like to be judged.
3. If your image is larger than 600 pixels wide, please provide a link to the image instead of posting it in the forum. Otherwise, the image will be cut off.
4. Artists cannot win in subsequent weeks. You can still submit, but if you won the week before, you cannot get first place again the next week.
5. After the deadline, a moderator will pick the winner, and they will be awarded a 25 AP award.

eh... forgot caps don't work. Delete the previous one.

Here is an attempt at something:

It's scaled down since the original is four times as big as this. It won't fit in the page, but there really isn't much else to see.

Ahar!

This is important to note. I said that the theme was "your name". But this does not mean the same as actually writing your name in the actual artwork!

This is a very challenging theme because it employs a different process, somewhat more similar to the design process and tests your skills of lateral thinking. Communication, after all, takes many forms.

So I'll tell you right now that Gantic's entry is, to me, completely legitimate as it has been displayed.

Very, VERY nice way of writing your name.

how did strop not win with his comic drawing!?!?!?!?!?!?!


b/c strop was the judge,so he wasn't really a contestant.Also it seems I haven't been on this thread for awhile.I might try my hand at this one.Also I noticed someone said they would have made one in Google Sketch-up before.Do you think a 3D art competition would be a good idea?Anyways I shall try to make one in 2D for now.

Btw, my entry...
