see now you're getting it.

But still don't make an effort to make them look overly stupid/goofy.
Think "man I'll make him totally badass". Not "haha he'll look LIKE A RETARD IT WILL BE AMUSING".

It has to be funny because it's so inappropriately badass.

I will be showing my love of pac man.

i dont get it, why is his playing with his nipples, and belly button,

'cause I couldn't pull out the Flashdance pose, but shhh...

kinda missing the point, if that isnt something Sonic would do in the game, then you're basically making a joke, which is the opposite of what this contest is asking for.

I did the Tingles thing. 2 hours of work.

That's more of a joke. It would be better if it was just an obese guy in a green suit.

here's a wip, and probably my last just to see if I'm going in the right direction.

I can't believe I messed up the orange ghost with green and the cyan with a blue

looking pretty badass so far fleshlight

Hm.... I've got an idea.

I need a quick check on whether this draft is badass enough.

Centipede.

Btw, I have a basic idea of what I'm gonna do, still thinking about it though....

Wip of Rayman

I was joking with the Flashdance thing, although it would kinda make sense with rings raining on him, although that'd be too much of a joke, I'm just gonna go for a safer play and make some creepy youshi shit, or maybe steal someone's idea with the badass cooking mama thing, seeeeeeexy!

Also Fleshlight, how come you always make such great stuff, yet still it always surprises me to see such badass work from you?

Totally just thought of a GREAT idea.

:D

Gonna take me a while.. But I think it'll be worth it. :D

Not completely sure what i'm doing for this yet, i'm thinking Duck Hunt

Looks like a pretty neat contest ... Though I might like a explanation to it.
Am I suppose to do Fan Art for a Bad Game or Am I suppose to make some sort bad interpretation that really has no relation to the actual game?

From what I understand, you need to make fan art for a game, any game, good or bad, but the art should be only loosly connected with the actual content of the game, as if you don't really understand where the artistic vision of the game was actually directed. As in the examples of the American box art from Megaman and Megaman 2, clearly the fun of the visuals of the Megaman franchise were lost on the artist (or whomever told the artist what to do). Think of it as well done art that completely misses the mark of what the game is, artistically, trying to convey.

At least that's my understanding of how the contest is supposed to work. =P

You're supposed to do a bad interpretation that relates to the actual game. Like drawing mario as a fat plumber jumping on walking heads and turtles. Check out pox's website and the link I posted on the second page for prime examples.

Oh man, great choice. That already looks fucking funny in my mind's eye.

dibs tf2 :)

also by my understanding were suppose to make a pic that compeltly misunderstands the point of the game?

Say, shouldn't the images in the Contest Thread that missed the point be deleted? To prevent new contesters to do the same.

Well that makes plenty of sence I suppose it's going to have to appear to abit different to everyone's eyes if they don't understand it but that would be a bit complicated to make bad game art equal to those boxart of the megaman games for most recent games it's kind of hard to make it look more bad as or creepier than the way it actually appears since they information is more clearly by display that you don't have to imagine it... Unless that's still possible ofcourse...

Oh yeah I already see that someone took dibs Bubble Bobble It looks like I'm going to take dibs on a even more obscure title like "The legend of mystical ninja"

All of the current entries looks like jokes to me... Might just badass Shinobi or something then

A few comments from me again.
First off, most of the images in the contest thread are still missing the point. You're aiming for a realistic version of the game. Key word being realistic. Like I said before, Mario would be a fat plumber jumping on snapping turtles (koopas) and walking heads (goombas).
Secondly, stop calling dibs on stuff. Who cares if there are multiple entries for the same video game. It's near impossible that your pieces will be similar because everyone will have their own interpretation of it. So enough with the dibbing, and just do what you want to do.

Notes taken, I'll do another one in a different style, and hpoefully more fitting to your expectations.
This one's cheap, but finished:
