Nov 2016 COTM: Pokémon Mashup! 2016-10-30 20:06:51


::THIS FORUM THREAD IS FOR DISCUSSIONS AND WIP SHARING::

DEADLINE:
November 17th 2016

THEME:
Create an illustration (Traditional OR Digital) showing a ‘mashup’ design of TWO of the original 151 Pokémon. You may ONLY show ONE ‘mashup’ Pokémon, though you may include other Pokémon or people in the scene, the central focus must be the ‘mashup’ character. Pieces will be judged on the creativity of their mashup, the ambition of the piece, as well as technical proficiency in creating their illustration.

Submissions must include the names of the two original Pokémon that have been combined to create their mashup design, in the title of their entry.

PLEASE NOTE: I am aware there are many Pokémon ‘mashup’ designs out there already, based often on the Pokémon Fusion website, as a result the WIP image required for your entry to be entered (see rules below) will be strictly enforced – NO artwork stolen or altered from somebody else will be allowed into the competition. You work must be 100% original.

HOW TO ENTER:
Upload your finished artwork to the Newgrounds.com Art Portal

TO ENTER THE OPEN CATEGORY:
TAG your artwork with the word ‘PokeMashupChallenge’
(That’s it! Scouted or unscouted, I will find your entry,
as long as you tag it with the exact word above)

TO ENTER THE BEGINNER CATEGORY:
TAG your artwork with the word ‘B-PokeMashupChallenge’

OPTIONAL: Share your entry on social media using the Hashtag #PokeMashupChallenge

This is a worldwide competition – join the Arty Party, wherever you are, and whatever age you may be!

RULES:
– You may submit a maximum of 1 entry
– You may NOT enter both categories (open/beginner)
– You MUST include a link in the description of your final submission leading to a ‘mid-development’ source (image or video) showing the entry is your original creation
– No pornographic material of any kind, violence must be PG13 and not too gruesome
– Your piece MUST be tagged correctly and be submitted by the deadline

Does anyone know if we can do a really realistic depiction of our mashup Pokemon? Or does it have to be in the cartoony style of Pokemon?

Response to Nov 2016 COTM: Pokémon Mashup! 2016-10-31 09:49:42


Here is my WIP, calling it Digados!

I think you can use whatever style you want, as long as your not breaking any of the rules that where specified.


Not sure if I like where mine is going..
