Yeah, sure. Go for it.

Oh my god, this is one of the funniest contest ideas I've ever heard of!

Too bad, I won't be able to submit something suitable even if I increased my daily practice.

Still I'm looking forward to the hilarious entries!

Are you going to judge the art either alone, with some chosen judges or will you let the people (democracy ftw) decide? Just curious....

In the past, the 'judging panel' has typically been made up of mods and staff (when available). This time we invited the winners of the Pico Day art contest to help out (with start pics and judging). The goal is to add new eyes, a fresh perspective, and different tastes to the whole process. Hopefully all goes well and we can continue to have winners from the contest before help with the next.

We're also hoping it will cut down on the bitching that inevitably occurs from people that disagree with the results.

yes?

I'm loving the starting pictures, great work guys!

I'm looking forward to seeing what people can come up with for this contest.

I think i'm going to keep my idea Discrete much like I've noticed ashman did on some of the Monthly Doubles.

Oops! xD

BTW ReNaeNae, the voting panel sound fair enough, but there will always be some bitching. I myself for example may get bitchy if there's nothing Godzilla related among the winners.... just saying.

The starting pics are really cool in both threads. Is "Dinosaurs From Outer Space" in the contest?

While trying to come up with some dumb ideas, I came up with some really dumb ideas.

LMAO! Guess I should have actually checked those links before I gave the thumbs up to post :P

No. TurkeyOnAStick and LiLg are both judges ...so no official entries yet! ;D

Sorry chap, but this breaks both parts of rule #2.

2. All art must be original and drawn by you specifically for this contest. No photoshops, collages, sprites or other artists' line work are permitted.

Hey guys, I made a quick doodle for what I think could be my entry.
I dont know if it's allowed, sinc the charcaters arent mine, obviously.
Also, I dont know if it's the kind of illustration that is being looked for.

Any comments, criticize or advise? thanks guys.

Yeah, it's all good.
Just so long as you're going to make it into a B-Movie poster, and you think that Dad 'n' Son fit the bill, go ahead.

What were the dimensions you used Turkey? And can I use them?

I know the rules for Photoshop include no collages, but can I use a texture for some subtle accent from a free texture site if I credit it on the poster?

Also, what about filters like Render Clouds?

Can I just submit this with some movie additions?

What part of 'secret internet relationship with an under aged girl on the art forum' don't you understand? I'm gonna take a wild guess and say its the part about it being secret.

This idea hit me like a train when I was trying to come (wop wop wop) up with something. I started saying "It came from... where could 'it' come from? It came... oh god..."

hmmm i dont think im done yet but i cant think of what else to put on or touch up on
