GM and I discussed this idea a couple weeks ago, and I think he may start doing them later on, but for the time being I'm your Master of Events. ;)
As most of you know, Kyuzo and I were recently involved in a one on one artistic duel, who's outcome resulted in me being your glorious champion. Just teasing you Kyuzo...
And in recent weeks the art board has been rock'n with activity, and I plan to keep it that way. We have so many artistic people here on GT, and I'm addicted to making, looking at, and critiquing art. And I'm sure there are other people out there like me, right here on these forums.
So thus begins a glorious saga known as the weekly art battles, in which GT users submit art, and the same users vote on a winner. Each week will involve a different theme or genre, or both.
On monday's I will post a thread giving the specifications of the next battle, and people will have until Thursday night at 10 PM to submit their work. After that, voting will begin in another thread. On Sunday the champion for the week will be decided, and their work will be posted in another thread called the "Hall of Fame". You are not allowed to vote for yourself in the battle.
And every so often we will have more "duel's", in which two members duke it out in an art battle, and the winner of these duel's will be decided by a panel of judges, while the rest of the community can bet on them in the vBookie system. Hopefully judges will volunteer, and we would like to have 2 artistic judges who judge technically, and two non-artistic judges who take another perspective.
To kick off the Art Battle chronicles, I have decided to make the first week a free for all. You can make anything you want (as long as it stays true to the TOS...) It can be a signiture, photography, a drawing, painting, abstract, etc, etc.
The number one rule:
No plagiarizing!
You may submit your work in this thread, and since I'm starting it kind of late, you can have until 12 PM thursday instead of 10 PM.
