Avat Round 3

[TurkeyOnAStick]

Hello, I'm not SketchyEntertainment.
I'm going to be looking after this 'til it's all over!

This is the third and penultimate round of the AVAT tournament, for the following participants:
Flowers10, Kuoke, Nekow, J-qb, Aigis, Civilized-Apocalypse, ThePsychoSheep, uncleporkchop, orathio89, Re2deemer, Morthagg and ImpendingRiot

What is the theme for round 3?
Alien Attack!
Take the theme, and expand on it! So long as the end pic is associated with the words "Alien" and "Attack", you're a-OK! Any further queries can be made within this thread.

The top 5 people will continue to the final round. There are only 5 prizes available, so the winners of this round are guaranteed a prize.

The judges are:
TurkeyOnAStick, Jomillex, LegolaSS, Big-Jonny-13, S0LK, SketchyEntertainment, Ornery, Luis and Hyptosis

These 9 judges may also review some of your pieces in the art portal, if they have the time.

The deadline for submissions is 11:59pm Saturday the 3rd of September, Newgrounds time.
That's two weeks!
Late submissions will not be counted (This tournament has taken long enough already!)

Please finish and submit it early, so you can be chilled out for the remaining period!

======== ======== ========= ========
If you upload your entry to the art portal, please tag 'AVAT03' in your submission to make the art searches even easier.
======== ======== ======== =========

Best of luck to you all!

Crapsicles. I don't think this theme is really up my alley, let alone I'll make something of it better than my previous entry. I'm a little bummed out that I could have made something with a lot less effort and still have gone through though.. I'm happy for everyone, obviously, but it still feels like a bit of a sour and silly round to me, to be honest.

Anyway, I also came here to tell that I'm leaving on vacation monday, so my piece for this round will probably be in quite late.
But good luck to everyone!

[ThePsychoSheep]

Well this is an interesting turn of events.I tough I was done for with my craptastic pic in the last round but because I freaking love Aliens COUNT ME IN!

[Civilized-Apocalypse]

origional aliens right? like i dunno if were talking about a series or not but if its just aliens then OH BOY
but ill have to stab at my hand not to draw klingons or romulans

[Sketchy]

Best of luck to everyone...

Well best of luck, hopefully it turns out the way you want it. If you need an opinion on your art, feel free to post a wip within this thread, or message me or something.

@J-qb: It is looking really well. The setting you place the art in is just great. I felt as if I was there, sorta thing. Nice work and keep it up.

[Hyptosis]

Sexy topic! Man, can't wait to see these entries! ^_^ Rock out everyone, show us what you're made of!

[Sketchy]

Anyways, this thing is near the top of my to-do list for today and tomorrow (no lectures tomorrow so should get it wrapped up in time)

[Sketchy]

Oh sorry, my apologies, I misread the text once again, sorry. This is the third and not the last round, haha.

[Kuoke]

Shazam.

Wait, what?
Okay, I read it again and the top five will do one more round.. Even though they've already won?
This is just confusing and weird now.

Anyway, I'm feeling a little demotivated and haven't even started but I'll probably still poop something out in time.

Nah, it's not.
5 people will go through this penultimate round.
The placement of those 5 users (1st, 2nd, 3rd ...) is determined in the final round.

There are 5 prizes, in total.

theres a description in the submitted image as to why it blows btw

[Re2deemer]

After space exploration boomed, humans constructed colossal colony ships, behemoths built to land on a planet and become the central citadel for the developing space colony, providing resources and a safe haven for the residents.
Of course...some aliens were more territorial than others and didn't appreciate their landscape being polluted with mile-long towers....

Note to self: PLANETS = NEVER AGAIN

I don't know if you read this before the deadline is over, but I really hope you can finish this in time. It looks very good and interesting so far.

Generally the submission quality is pretty high. Let's hope there are some more of them to come

... before the deadline.

[ThePsychoSheep]

AAAAAND DONE!! Linky

[J-qb]

Too bad we had so many drop outs again this round.

good for me though since I didn't have time to polish my pic.

Thanks for all the comments my submission; really appreciated. I might finish it some day if I have some spare time.
When will round 4 start? I'm assuming there won't be any judging this round?

[Flowers10]

Oh snap! im too late!

[bigjonny13]

4 completed entries and a WIP......

Still a better turn out than the sub-round.

[Morthagg]

... Wait, what? That's not right! I thought we had untill this evening?
Oh noooooo
Goddamnit, I'm so sorry, and very angry at myself now. For fuck's sake, how is this even possible. I've put such an effort in my previous entries, I really wanted to make something nice and then to make a stupid mistake like this.. Augh I could punch myself right now.

[Morthagg]

...
Wait. I'm confused. It says '11:59 PM'. I'm not good with the American timing-thing, but doesn't that mean.. 1 minute to midnight? Doesn't that also mean we still have half a day or am I just missing something/everything?

[Re2deemer]

Nope, you are half a day late. The deadline, according to NG time which is somewhere east-USA, was on the 3rd of September, 23:59. During your last post it was already 11:00 of the 4th of September, roughly 11 hours late.
I know, timezones. *shrugs*

Also, damn every american that thinks the whole world knows their timezones and just posts it with some 3-letter abbreviation. Not speaking of Newgrounds here, but of those that talk in EDT's, PST's, MDT's etc.

[Morthagg]

Oh. So that was yesterday's time.
...
Crapsicles.

Well, anyway, too bad. And yeah, I too can get really confused with the weird american time zones. Buhhh.
