Flood The Portal Fridays! 10 2011-10-20 15:29:19


Hi, welcome to the return of the Flood the Portal Fridays.
Flood the portal friday happens on the first friday of the month. At a set time, all participants submit a piece of art in a set theme to the portal. There isn't much fun in that were it not for the fact that all submitted art should have the same thumbnail! This way first page of the art portal should be flooded with the same thumbnail!
Furthermore, everyone is expected to review other participants' pieces. This way you're not only part of a fun activity, you also get the reward of reviews from your fellow artists!

If you're still unclear about what it's about, check out the previous editions:
ftpf01 |ftpf02| ftpf03| ftpf04 |ftpf05|
ftpf06| ftpf07| ftpf08| ftpf09

some poeple have untagged/changed the thumbnail after the flood ended.

The Rules?
- Make sure the thumbnail of your pic is EXACTLY the one shown below. Don't make it blue, don't flip it, don't change the text, don't do anything! That's meant to be the icon that will Flood the Portal! You can change it later or remove it after 24 hours have passed since the start of the flood.
- You can either work the thumbnail into the pic, or just dump the thumbnail in the corner, whatever you want.
- Feel free to make as many pictures as you wish, so long as they're not shite.
- Don't upload it early, it's gotta be a FLOOD of pics on the FRIDAY! If you can't submit it on the submission time you shouldn't join. Unless you fancy drawing something, that is.
- If it's early, an art mod will delete it. Art mods are lame.
- You are expected to give a decent review to the other submissions for this flood.

===THE IMPORTANT STUFF===
With this being the tenth flood, as well as the return of the Flood the Portal Fridays, we have reason enough for a little celebration. That's why the theme is BEER, yep: BEER

and because it's Freddy Heineken's birthday...

The theme can be as literal or loosely interpreted as you want, so long as you include the thumbnail.

Tag your submission(s) with "ftpf10", so we can look back at them in the future.

The tenth flood will begin on the 4th of NOVEMBER AT 6PM NEWGROUNDS TIME, and the thumbnail can be downloaded here.

If you are not scouted just upload your art the correct time and then post a link here in this thread.

No, the idea is that you upload it at the correct time yourself and post the link here. That way unscouted artists also get some attention and eventually even .... let's not say it too loud ... scouted. But the main goal is to review each others art. I hope that works out this time.

that's cause you're not scouted yet (you need four pieces of art to be able to get scouted)

But don't worry, we will check your art.

I hope "reviewing each other's pieces" is working this time. Expect mine this night or next night.

Maybe some today and some tomorrow.

I'll make a newspost when I start the next one (probably two weeks from now)

Also, you should have other people set the theme/make a thumbnail for future floods.

For variety's sake, or is there something you don't like about my theme/thumbnail?

@strapon fetus; did you read the first post? You are late, the pic has nothing to do with beer, and you didnt include the thumbnail...

I don't think so. The theme has been decided together with others users and Jqb's thumbnail was really original and well done.

We could talk about a possible next theme here in this thread, like we did after past floods.

I would love something christmas related.

As for big historical events, I could only find the landing of Castro and Guevarra on the coast of cuba and some events caused by Napoleon and his descendants, who seemed to like that date a lot.

thnks

Yes, Let's do that

I would love something christmas related.

Isn't december 2nd a bit early for that? Plus there will probably be other opportunities for poeple to draw something christmas related I think.
We already had a snow theme once if I'm not mistaken, so I'd prefer not to do that or winter.

As for big historical events, I could only find the landing of Castro and Guevarra on the coast of cuba and some events caused by Napoleon and his descendants, who seemed to like that date a lot.

myeah, they don't really lead to good topics though (I think).
December 2nd is the birthday of french painter Georges Seurat, who invented Pointillism.
Would you guys dig pointillism as a topic? A bit different from the other topics, but I think it could be cool.

But I suck ass at reviewing :<

How about "children shows" as a theme? We can all think of something to do with blasts from our pasts. Barney, Transformers or more local shows...
