I was looking at people user creations and I noticed something NOT enough people do drawings nowdays, It's all photopardys or half arsed images , So Im proposing to do a DRAWING contest, seeing as Im only expecting to get three entrys at most I will be a sole Judge for this, And I'm going to give honest Critism's, because as I always say If you don't know what your doing wrong you can't improve. So here are the rules. Entries can be Digital or Traditional Media, Pixel Art is acceptble, and It should be Original No fanart, or recolours and No photos. This is a drawing Contest. Each person is allowed to submit A maximum of three entrys. Crits will be given for Each one, but you will be judged on your best one. I wont give scores till a winner is declared. Colour is not compulsory but helps. You have until the 15th Of March to submit entrys. MOST IMPORTANT RULE:::Have Fun and be Creative, thats the more original the better. Topic: There is no particullar topic to draw on just genreal, the idea is to give the freedom to draw anything, drawings will be judged by creativity as well as quality and style. Prizes: Will be revealed at a later date. Edited by Hiyawoffa, Feb 25 2012, 06:34 PM.

I think I'll enter, but personally I think you should give a topic for us to draw, even if it's general. Otherwise I have no clue what you are looking for. |

I agree - that would be helpful. I've been struggling to think of ideas for what to draw. |

Actually, a general topic would be best because it's a simple topic and we can expand creativity from there.

Perhaps. Also, due to an unexpected family visit on Saturday, I don't know whether I'll be able to do an entry this weekend after all. I'll try, though. |

If I was to say it was modern art I'm sure I could get money from the government. |

At last, my entry ! Have you ever wondered what really happened to Gaddafi? Or Kim Jong-il, for that matter? Well, here's the answer! ![]() (Click to enlarge) I do have a lot to answer for here. In the third panel, I accidentally picked up a purple crayon instead of a brown one. In the tenth, I got lazy with the map, and among other things, I drew the Caucasus way too large (at least double the size it should be). Then some of the text came out blurry (in the tenth panel, the text either side of Iran says "USA WOZ 'ERE" and "AMERICA WOZ 'ERE TOO"). Then there's the American English in the title (British English uses 'programme', except in the context of computers). I blame TGF :fail: . Still, I hope you like it! |

To me it looks like your were being lazy and rushed it, I've seen you do much better, however I've never seen you do a comic before and I know I used to have trouble on the flow and formating http://hiyawoffa.deviantart.com/gallery/12451785#/d22twir, though it is nice to see you did paneling, and it looks like you had to do it all be hand, but from the camera the image is pretty hard to read, it's not so hard to take more than one photo and clip, especially with how well neat your paneniling. Cause I had trouble reading it even enlargerd Im not sure what was going on, and it skips around to much even by a cartoons standards. It is neat and the colours and pictures fit alright, and the satirical element is also nice. Out of things which could be improved is the Art(which can always be improved) Try to crosshatch to prevent blank spots, and if you must take it from a phone or camera make sure the reader can see the words before finalising it, paint can be used to edit images, (suprisingly.) |

I admit I did rush it and skip around a lot, but that was mainly due to time constraints: to do the art properly, with a few more panels to make the story flow better, would have taken me an inordinate amount of time, which simply wasn't available to me, since I only finished at university a few days ago. Thanks for the tips, though .

Let's have something to do with Viktor . A comic, a drawing of him with his weapons and everything (I can't remember whether you've done this already), or anything else you fancy!

Do you still have the original drawing? If so, it'll be interesting to see how the new one differs from it. |
