Art Tournament -black orb wins! :)

I've seen a lot of good art work flying around this site and i have decided to hold an Art Tournament. Here's how it would work:

There would be several rounds, depending on the number of participants. Participants would register on my say so. Each round, one or two participants will be knocked out of the round, this would be determined by the amount of votes that they don't get. Basically, any one who is NOT taking part in the art drawing, can vote for the person(s) who they want to go through. This will occur after every round until there is a clear winner at the end. (there will be a limit for the amount of votes per voter: 2).

Each round will last one week. Voting for the round will last for 3 days giving voters the opportunity to vote.

Anyone who wishes to enter the Tounament, please PM me, i will then know who has registered. Thank you and good luck!

Registering has Closed
p.s. I will be participating in this tournament.

OK, i have the permission of the admin to hold this tournament, with big thanks to Leeza for sorting that out.

so, i have 5 contestants so far, I have :
Werecanary
themagicroundabout
Shadow Bahamut (me)
Takara
Yu-Yevon

As a reminder, the rules are as follows:

There would be several rounds, depending on the number of participants. Participants would register on my say so. Each round, one or two participants will be knocked out of the round, this would be determined by the amount of votes that they don't get. Basically, any one who is NOT taking part in the art drawing, can vote for the person(s) who they want to go through. This will occur after every round until there is a clear winner at the end. (there will be a limit for the amount of votes per voter: 2).

Each round will last one week. Voting for the round will last for 3 days giving voters the opportunity to vote.

Remember, you can draw anything, from fan art, to custom artwork, anything.

Anyone who wishes to enter the Tounament, please PM me, i will then know who has registered. Thank you and good luck!

Ok, but i ain't forcing him. he'll whoop my ass with all this sketchy sh1t..
Come on guys!! i only got 9 people!!!!

At the moment, i'm working out that this will last about 8-9 weeks. For the first 3 rounds, there will be 2 people knocked out, leaving 3 finalists, then only 1 will be knocked out per round until the is a winner.

p.s. I am all prepared for the draw war!!! i have my art at the ready. so should you, with only 1 day until round 1 starts.

Oh my...Black orb. *gulp*

So we can submit anything we have done before?

I mean....are we allowed if we have posted it here before? That doesn't really sound like a fair cop to me because chances are people would of made up their minds as to what they prefer anyway and may not get full consideration to others....Still...its your call.

*hopes Black Orb always posts what he draws* ;)

sorry magicroundabout, i have already said anything.
Black Orb, you don't have to if you don't want to, let me know through PM if you want to or not.

We have 11 contestants!
that means there will be 6 rounds in all. i have changed the voting time too, it will only be 2 days voting. this is cuz i'm going on vacation in August and i have to fit this in.
anyhow the whole thing will last for 8 weeks. In the first 4 rounds, 2 contestants will be voted out. That will then leave us with 3 finalists, then it's only one knocked out per round until the winner emerges.

let the tournament begin!!!

ok, here is a review of the rules:
There would be 7 rounds, with 12 participants. Each round, two participants will be knocked out of the round, until there are 3 finalists, then only one is knocked out at a time. this would be determined by the amount of votes that they don't get. Basically, any one who is NOT taking part in the art drawing, can vote for the person(s) who they want to go through. This will occur after every round until there is a clear winner at the end. (there will be a limit for the amount of votes per voter: 2).

Each round will last one week. Voting for the round will last for 3 days giving voters the opportunity to vote.

Remember, you can draw anything, from fan art, to custom artwork, anything.

You post one pic per round on this thread

if there are any more questions, please go ahead and ask.

Okay, well, here is mine.

I know I've submited these images before, however, they were seperate images. So, since I liked them, I decided to try and draw them both on one piece of paper, with one faint and and the other more prominent. I must say though, that it took for-freaking-ever to draw.I've discovered I have a knack for smudgeing pencil marks. :mad: I tried to stay as close to the original drawings as I could, and, well, here it is.

I agree with Black Orb. This tourney should not make you feel bad about your abilities as an artist. Rather, it should give you inspiration and the drive to find mistakes in your own work and do something to fix them.

Just have fun and give it your all.

I didn't get a lot of time to draw lately, so I'm picking some old art that is about one year old. Too lazy to find my other art.

Here's a portrait of a character of mine that I did in acrylic inks. Whee! So there, meet Tristan. Yes, it's a male. Yes, he's supposed to look a bit feminine. Yes, he has feathery hair. XD

Pay no attention to the not-totally controlled colouring technique.

okay, to answer ZuZu, i don't know why people are posting 2 pics, they should only be doing 1. i think they are pre-posting for future rounds.

There are still 3 people to post drawings for round 1:
Werecanary
Chaos (i know about you)
The Anarchy Angel

if these people do not make an entry, then they will be automatically disqualified.

Round 1 :: 2 days remaining

here is my entry, i couldn't find any time to draw anything, so i had to use this one. lol, my scanner broke, so i had to use my dad's digicam... :p
06-19-2005, 04:19 PM

Well, it isn't making me feel bad really, all i'm doing is pointing out something obvious hehe ;). And I wish I could put some of my better drawings in but I just did them now at my dad's and he has no scanner so I can't put em on the computer.

I hope this still falls within the time limit...as I'm going by GMT it does, as currently there are two days left. So I will try my utmost to get it posted around 5/6pm GMT.

So yeah, due to circumstances beyond my control (Exams) I wont be able to do it tonight. There still is tomorrow though. I hope.

If, for some reason Chaos cannot make the deadline, I feel that you should make an exception. She should only be a few hours behind, so I think she deserves a breaks, as would anyone in her situation. (Plus she's an AMAZING artist.)

i think that her reason is fair enough. I will give her an extra day, if needs be. However, she must post her piece A.S.A.P.

Ok, I do believe this is a product of post exam traumatic stress, and a combination of the wonderfully titled song "The half eaten sausage would like to see you in his office" by the Not so wonderful band The Locust. So I thank both of those. Yay.

There are certian things about the image quality that I am not happy with, but right now, I'm glad just to get it uploaded.

Poop. I guess I missed out, no big deal though, I don't think I'll be able to catch up in the 3rd round (If I would have made it) anyway, too much crap going on with work.

that is a damn good piece of art work, Black Orb. and i have to go and post something far of a lesser quality. i like to call it "My Monotone Motorcycle".
the basic idea came from the Fenrir bike of FF7:AC, but i developed a few design features.
07-16-2005, 11:22 PM

Yours is still very good as well Shadow Bahamut. Far better than anything I've done. :)

Wow, great entries you two. Urk, I don't really have anything decent to put up. I've just started college so lack of time, that and I'm now all arted out after doing intensive drawing from 9 to 4.

So I'll post an old painting, not especially good, but its alright I think. Just done roughly in a Francis Bacon style of my friend. Looks messed up, but oh well. She had a bad hair day. Oils on parcel paper.

sorry guys, i'm leaving to go on vacation today, so i will be leaving Mercen-X in all charge of this Tournament. I will have to forfeit from this round onwards because i do not have the art work, nor the time to post.
You know the rules Mercen-X, take good care of it.

Right, then this means that when voting comes 'round, y'all send your PM's my way. I can't access SB's PM's afterall.

That means votes will be PM'd to me, Mercen-X. NOW

By the way, the participants remaining are black orb, ZuZu, Chaos, and Takara.

So far:
2 votes black orb
2 votes ZuZu
1 vote Chaos

I don't even know what kind of time limit to put on voting as it seems no one even looks in this thread anymore.

I saw this and wondered who had the most all-time votes in the Ciddies. After checking through the Ciddies for the past four or so years (I think we've had about eight Ciddies so far), this is the overall tally...

Sita Atis...........110
Dr Unne..............57
black orb............52
*angel tears*........44
Rydia of Mist........43
Vincent06............23
eternalshiva.........18
Iri Valentine........18
mystic ice cube......14
Moomba Misstress.....12
Snowman..............12
Xander...............12
Rye..................11
Mala..................9
Mikztsu...............9
angel.................8
RSL...................8
Twin Cruiser..........8
Female Ryuichi........5
Miriamel..............5
Agent Proto...........4
Chaos.................2
Joel..................2

Sita strongly in front despite not being around for the more recent Ciddies which have had more votes than ever before - not bad. :) All wonderful contendors, though.

Samuraid and I are looking to revamp the FanArt section on Eyes on Final Fantasy as it's quite old right now, and needs reworking. One of the things I'm hoping to get put up is a section for Recognised Artists, where the best of the best artists such as black orb, *angel tears* and co can put their stuff up. But that might take days or months before it goes live - still, something I felt I may as well post about.

Good luck to the final four in the competition. :) If you're still accepting votes for this... I guess I'll send in mine now.

>>> Im glad to hear some people cares about the Fan Art section and artists arround here.

Good luck with the new fan art section.

Mercen-X

I've only been to the fanart sec a few times. There don't seem to be any new additions. Either that, or all the new simply resembles the old. I'd visit more often if I could draw my own fanart. Unfortunately, I've got idle hands when it comes to drawing.

Okay, so this thing has been here a good enough while for me to get votes from anyone who was interested in voting.

black orb (from my tally of the votes) is clearly going to be the winner no matter who else decides later they want to vote. To keep this going would mean waiting around for a handful of random members to vote for black orb as there's no doubt they will.

On Shadow Bahamut's behalf, I would like to thank all participants who took the time to take part in and submit their artwork to this tournament. You are all exceptionally skilled in this most visually pleasing craft. Hasta luego.

Just to say it was fairly old stuff - urk. I had a crucial scanner issue so I had to post some old school work. Still....it fitted the bill. I hope.

Is anything happening with this competition...or is it a bit dormant?

Congrats to all the artists. I think everybody deserves a hearty pat on the back for this one. I felt a little bit left out because I dropped out so early in the tourney, too busy with other stuff. (That and I didn't even get enough time to vote for the others, sorry everyone ^^;;;)

Anyway I'm hoping we get more participants and voters the next time around. Again, congratulations!

Perhaps next time the artists should be given the right to vote (for anyone other than themselves) as it seems that the artists are pretty much the only ones interested.
