it was a great submission, and you nailed it.

I think one of the concerns was visibility, its a nice rustic lookin piece but its really hard to see or understand the image. for a while we though the monster was raising from his own shadow when we realized it was water.

it was in the top ten though

Alright.
Happy Halloween, and all that.

First Place was really tricky on account of there was quite a few kickass submissions that deserved it. In the end we went with TheRealShadman. He tore it up with the details but still added plenty of atmosphere and humor.

1st TheRealShadman
2nd jagondudo
3rd Nekow
4th jouste
5th RobLovelett

congrats to all the winners again, and see you next contest.

Alright fellas, its now 12midnight. contest is over. Ill have the winners sometime tomorrow/today.

great work I love it.

almost has a beboy feel to it.

as most said, just work on the perspective and you will rock it. the naruto one is my favorite because the perspective is just dead on

haha, he looks like president Bush.

great details on that piece though.

definitely a perfect opportunity for people with big ideas and stories to show off their stuff.

I know lots of peeps telling me they have great ideas for stories and such, nows the time to put your money where your mouth is and produce.

My condolences to his family. I am sorry for his death, but I still cannot treat him as a hero.

I don't think anywhere is it stated he was a hero, its was a good guy, a good friend and had an amazing imagination. Stop reading into things.

Also, rip.

is that a cry for help? or shitty attempt at trolling

nice to know you're alive, and congrats on the degree.

Im just curious , why the radio silence?

If Would have stayed silent I won't have been able to share my work with others in the art portal and contrite to the community. To me that is all that matters, having others enjoy my hard work and effort. I'm starting to think that I should have not said anything.

or maybe read the rules?
or used the search bar to see if there were others with the same issues?
or posted the work in your original thread and stated your issues then?

lol the options are endless.

either way, you got your answer, you got your scout, and theres no need for multiple art threads , unless you are posting a progress thread, your art can all fall on the same thread.

so yah locked.

Also, why does everyone on the Art Forum like to procrastinate everything so much? Could someone (*chough*BMK*chough*) just create a template and some guidelines so we could get to work?

I think everyone should be able to start drawing ideas now without a template just getting a feel on their aesthetics,

but if there are any plans to make the game play orginal or more complex, a template wouldn't be made for a while.

it could be a really fun game

artists submitting should be free to put in as much or as little as they want,
want to just do a minion? cool, a couple of minions? a sub-boss, boss, player character and backgrounds? even cooler.

Or you could wait till certain art is approved and add to that specific artist's style. anything should go,
definitely need a programmer first to hammer out the mechanics and details, then let the artists loose on those mechanics , and be creative as possible within those limitations.

I sincerely doubt anyone expected you to be working on a game for 5 years. There are just some things you expect after a 5 year gap. More in terms of like if you compare the visual quality gap between the first Toy Story movie and Finding Nemo.

I think the spaceship stuff is just being used as an example.

I totally expect to see creative and abstract work.

I think the story is the easiest part, the story tends to work itself out after the art has been completed anyways.

So what Im curious about is how do are you going to divvy up the assignments?

should we have a template for backgrounds, bosses and minions, and just let people have at it?

Or will everyone need to come up with their own world?

also are unpublished works allowed? I got plenty of those.

I can't believe nobody's posted this. >_>

probably because its been frontpaged for weeks.

you guys really don't get how this works.

lol, shitty art like this doesn't deserve such heated debates.

What do you guys think?

looks great, you should post it on your art page, for some possible FP action, make sure to add "Halloween2009" as one of your descriptions

people are extremely lazy, and doing a scrolling brawler will end up with lots of characters that float or roll, because no one wants to do walking animations. not to mention the filesize hit from all the FBF, Taking what I learned with red baron(which was a scrolling brawler collab).

I will go for

scrolling shooter.

actually, nvm I just edited the jpeg submission , its better now.
