ok heres the link http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/justdumbgamer/roman-soldier-vs-army-soldier

Tag your work as oldvnew to make sure Jazza sees it eventhough you posted on the first page. He clearly says to tag it (it is where you put newgrounds, army, vs, roman. Just change one of the tags!).
I'm not trying to be mean, i just want to make sure your hard work won't be wasted because it was not submitted the correct way. :)

Basic outlines I have of The Enterprise vs. The Minotaur. I've been drawing for a while, but never really been a part of the Newgrounds community. Pretty exciting to jump right in now. Good luck to everyone, this is some cool stuff.

Dang, some of these submissions are amazing. This is a really kicking contest.

Could ewoks or another primitive alien race count as ancient?

My entry will be a sorts of slide comic. I will combine the other pages as well. Is that cool. As for the topic, It is OLDVNEW just not a technical fight.

Haha cool concept. I had a thought of changing the current time pc with maybe a caveman playin tic tac toe with him/herself on s cave wall or make a steam powered steampunk machine/workspace.

But I like it so far :)

It's not that good right now. I'm playing around with the sketch digitally but I will more than likely do the actual entry piece traditionally. It will look much better that way. I haven't decided on the futuristic character yet, but I'm choosing to do a Greek warrior as the ancient character. He's wearing glasses because the Greek Warrior is in Markiplier's likeness. (In the final piece, he won't have the glasses on, probably. I just doodled them in here on the sketch)
I don't normally do battle scenes or armored characters or anything so I'm really jumping into trying a lot of new things with this piece.

Pretty excited to see how my now finished piece places amongst all this amazing talent.
