New Year's Drawing Contest!


Tada! *to the sound of prolonged fanfares, a guy climbs onto a stage hastily cobbled together from crates that once held rutabagas*
- Thank you, thank you, no need for applause! ^^
*the dead silence in the hall is broken by a couple of claps that claim the lives of some annoying mosquitoes*
- Well, thank you for coming! Truth be told, there won't be any socks or half-naked elves today...
*through dissatisfied grumbling, the sound of breaking bottles and shouts of "why the hell am I even here then!", the guy continued*
- Okay, okay, just kidding, we'll make an exception for some. Now, where was I... Ah yes! I propose to hold a New Year's drawing contest! :smile08:
And... on a free theme! ;) but preferably it should be some kind of fanfic with the forum members. We could draw brave Knight killing a dragon...
- Oh my god, monsters! - exclaimed Vistrityachka
- Well.. I suspected that would happen) Well then let's say a brave princess kills an evil knight and saves a beautiful dragon...
- Waaa, or maybe the dragon saves the knight?
- Kh-khm, alright, just no yaoi please) By the way, did I mention? You don't have to be able to draw, the main thing is the desire ;) Because every participant will receive a prize... hopefully:rolleyes:
Also in our program - extorting gifts from Father Frost, a banquet with Snegurochkas, and a deep sleep under the Christmas tree)

As I recall, last year we tried to organize a "New Year's Gift", although that time only our clever ones Drakkoshka and Polosataya drew fanfics:smile20: But what can I say, it still made me happy:) Only the title itself implied the participation of those who can draw... But now I suggest everyone participate, regardless of drawing level! That is, the contest will be like a "tournament for beginners", so feel free to send any scribbles, nobody's going to hit you over the head:D even same way around.. I'm all for it)

• Anyone can participate, the main thing is the desire;)
  
• So as I already said, the drawing can be on any theme (preferably related to the forum, a fantasy-winter theme :)) New Year's, snowy, cold, warm, with knights or dragons - doesn't matter.
  
• You can start drawing now. I know I'm being mean, but the 30th is the last day for submission :\ Because I really want to hold a contest in honor of the New Year
  
• Preferably post in the thread about your participation. If you're not sure if something will work out, you can try first and then sign up. Drawings are accepted until the last day... and maybe even later:rolleyes:
  
• Teks... don't leave drawings here. Either to my email(WhiteLizard_92@mail.ru ), or in ICQ(432346091 answer to anti-spam - sleep), or in a PM :)
  
• Photoshop, Painter, OpenCanvas are not forbidden. A good, detailed collage of more than three photographs is also allowed, provided those photographs are listed. And! THE DRAWINGS MUST BE YOUR OWN! I'll check))))
  
• If you have problems with beating low-quality cameras(scanners), write to me. A slight shift in the better direction is possible. Also, if needed, I can compress the drawing to the required sizes.
  
• Voting will be anonymous. :cool: More precisely, when I receive the drawings, I'll post them in the thread under numbers (so that no one knows whose drawing is whose). I think we'll have several votes (in the manner of Floodoskar) for nominations - tastiest, scariest drawing, largest number of Snegurochkas:D etc.. and of course the very-very best ;) For this, I will open a poll in the thread.
  
• The atmosphere by default is festive and friendly:)
  
• Well, that seems to be all... go for it:smile49:

WhiteLizard
Drakkoshka
Wesker
Kash
Lelya
Tieru
Neyra Drake

1) A wonderful green little monster. According to the author, this is one of the best creations of his life.
Temporarily absent

2) A kind little person with a third eye O O


3) Another masterpiece :) Architectural project of an underwater Castle by a 4th grade student ~^


4) *Hic!* Did we drink too much? 0o nooooo...


5) Our cozy little pub. The Most Reverend Creator eats a rag and pets a minotaur:smile43:


6) Mrrrr! ^^ This is not a cigar, but caramel!
Removed at the participant's request...

7) And of course, the awaited gift from one of our forum artists:smile26: Haven of debauchery v 2.0.! :D


By the way, the author of the last drawing asked to pass on that he regrets not being able to draw even half of what was planned...
Surprisingly, every contest participant told me their drawing was a horror:D (though we didn't have that much time...) But in the end, everything turned out great. So please do not judge harshly, but love and welcome them :) I hope you like some of the works!
And once again, Happy Holidays!!!!!!!

Vegtam, who can draw at the level of a preschooler, really wants to participate :smile04:

And where is the contest regulation? :smile02:

A contest is definitely needed!
But we need to decide what it will be: a simple entertainment event where the main task for participants is to delight forum users with excellent drawings, focusing on the idea rather than the quality; or turn it into a competition, as in the first contest, with anonymous drawings, a clear winner, and perhaps a medal in the profile. However, if there are few participants, the second option will definitely be out of the question. And if

each participant receives a prize...

then... perhaps the second option doesn't make sense either.

In general, I am ready to support the contest to the best of my ability if my help is needed somewhere. Unfortunately, not as a participant, but still :)

I will too ^^ let everyone see how people who can’t draw draw! :smile04:

I might try to participate; I'm not a great artist, but maybe my creative mind will come up with something amusing. XD

Personally, I'm all for holding a contest; I'll draw something awful :p, or maybe not awful, it's been a while since I last drew...

Okay, I've updated the rules, and now the contest officially starts! Please sign up, and you can also start creating your maps.

I will definitely participate!))) Although I have exams coming up, I'm hoping to find some time.))) Sign me up!)))

If you have any problems with destroying low-quality cameras (scanners), write to me. There might be a slight improvement. Also, if needed, I can resize the image to the required dimensions.

I can help too. I have a lot of experience. Please have the organizer send the images for processing so there are no problems with anonymity.)))

Thanks, we were waiting for you ;) I'll sort out the processing, but if something comes up... just let me know right away.

As you know, I've already started working on it.

As you know, I've already started working on it)))

Is this a threat? :smile04:

I'm thinking it over. I'm still thinking and will start creating:rolleyes:

Answer one question for me: Why the heck did I sign up for the drawing contest if I can’t draw at all?! O_o :smile04: Okay, I won’t give in to Lisa’s provocations anymore… -_-

Hey, you'll learn along the way.

She knows what will happen to her if she starts slacking off))

Kosh, draw an epic scene of Ara being killed by a hammer-wielding warrior.

Kosh, draw an epic scene of Arath killing someone with a hammer, lol.

I've already created an epic scene =P

By the way, what's the status of the nominations? Are they ready, or will they be created as we go?
