"Um, um. Yikes, I gotta see if this hasn't been done yet, but... the theme I'd like to see for next month would be something like "ULTIMATE POWER!"

Welcome to the November 2008 edition of OCR's "official" Fan Art Competition (FAC).

The winner of the previous month gets to choose the following month's theme. Last month's winner, Nyuura, decided to go with ULTIMATE POWER for this month!




If your unfamiliar with the FAC, here is an FAQ thing.

FAQ

What is the Fan Art Competition?
The Fan Art Competition is a monthly event where artists create some form of art based on a certain theme.

What is the theme?
The theme is decided by the winner of the previous months competition and must be video game related.

Who can submit art?
Anyone.

What are my restrictions?
You are allowed to submit one entry, but other than that there are no restrictions. There are no size, quality, image size restrictions.

Who decides the winner?
OCR of course; the whole community votes on it.

How does voting work?
On the day after the deadline I will make a post that displays all of the art submitted. Then users will be allowed to see every entry and decide which three they like the best, in order. After which they will send me a PM with their votes and maybe a few comments about the contest. They must do so in the announced voting period, or at least before I tally the votes. If not then they fail at voting.

When and how do we see the results?
After the voting period is over I will count the results and figure out which piece has the most points. When voting the voter sends in their top three favorite pieces. The one they like the most is worth 3 points, the second 2 points and the third 1 point.

If I enter the contest can I vote?
Yes, and voting for yourself is allowed if you REALLY want to.

Once the points have been counted I will send a happy PM to the winner that tells them that they one and explains how they are to choose the next months theme.

Rules and Regulations!
1) Any art submitted must be based off of the months theme.
2) No nudity.
3) Your entry must be created within the month. It cannot have been something you've created in the past or partially finished prior to the announcement of the theme.
4) All entries must be 100% your work. Simply altering something created by someone else may be cool, but is not allowed as an entry.

[Nohbody]

someone do OoT link with mirror shield, biggorons sword, hover boots, golden gauntlets, etcetera. and naryus love??? light arrows??

[cobaltstarfire]

Ooh, I have an idea for this one, I hope I can do it good though.

[Txai]

What? Super Sayan?

[friendlyHunter]

Hooboy there are so many great possibilities for this one, I don't even care what I choose. I may follow up on the Biggoron Sword request. In the meantime, here's the fastest image edit I've ever done:

http://img397.imageshack.us/img397/2200/laserqt4.gif

[Nyuura]

What? Super Sayan?

Sure, why not?

Don't forget about vidja game villains. They go through ULTIMATE POWER phases all the dang time.

Also, thank you, Bleck, for putting "ULTIMATE POWER" in all caps. You're sexy.

[Bleck]

I WILL ACCEPT SUPER SAIYANS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT VIDYAN RELATED SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE SUPER SAIYANS

Do it yourself and enter. No entry is too bad.

[Arek the Absolute]

Doth thou desire the power?

(please :3 )

[Ninja-san]

http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll85/kattak52/129Magikarp.png
Powerful Pokemon like him?

[Bleck]

according to a personality test I took I am most like a magikarp

[Arek the Absolute]

My fist is the divine breath!

[Vilecat]

Kickass theme this month.
Not sure if I'll enter because of personnal problems, but if so I think I have an idea or two.

[Kureejii Lea]

When characters reach the zenith, or at least a certain point, of their power. (Ex: Super Sonic, Invincible Mario maybe, Any SSBB character who grabbed a Smash Orb, Esper Terra, Vincent Valentine + his transformations or whatever to name a few.)"

Man, I already did that in a previous competition...

Oh well, maybe I'll find time for this month.

[Nyuura]

I have a great idea of what I want to draw, but we shall see if I'll be able to pull it off.

[Sindra]

Hmmm...I have a couple of ideas. Yay for bosses with multiple forms.

[Gollgagh]

I was thinking of doing Alucard with Shield Rod + Alucard Shield

but then I realized that that's waaaaaay too intricate for me. All that lacy fluid hair and cape and everything everywhere?

[Bleck]

ffs I DON'T CARE JUST DRAW IT

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE GOOD

[Gollgagh]

SHH IM SECRETLY GIVING PEOPLE IDEAS SO THEY CAN DRAW IT INSTEAD OF ME

[Bleck]

What would you guys think if I made an offshoot of the competition, but for OffTopic? Same theme, same deadline, but for all entries that don't have to do with videogames. Would that be a good idea, or would it just drag away from the original competition?

[Txai]

I am wondering if you received my picture.

[Bleck]

I Certainly Did

[Schwaltzvald]

I'd say keep the FAC centralized here and just expand on acceptable entries for the comp. If there's enough entries (well over 50+) maybe you could still keep it here but just have seperate sections to allow more competitions on the same deadline.

[relyanCe]

Maybe every once in a while we could expand the theme outside VG. Say, every other month, just to spice things up. But we wouldn't have to cuz VG is such a huuuuuuuuuuuge pile of art material anyway. Maybe original art based on theme?

[cobaltstarfire]

Sooo...how's every ones art coming this month?

[Faulken]

I WILL ACCEPT SUPER SAIYANS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT VIDYAN RELATED SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE SUPER SAIYANS

WHAT?! 9000?!

I will try to bash out a simple entry, but no promises-I lack much time to do anything half decent.

I'm thinking Dedede doing the big gay Brawl dance.

[bonzai!]

i love this theme. my problem right now is narrowing down what i want to do :(

[cobaltstarfire]

I'm working on the background mostly, now, I finished the rest.

Backgrounds are always my weakest point, and getting everything to look cohesive, it'd probably work better if I did what I was supposed to and draw everything first! >.<

I think I've been getting better though due to a combination of participating in this, and drawing comics.

[Nyuura]

Surprisingly enough, I submitted mine real early.

[friendlyHunter]

I'm thinking Dedede doing the big gay Brawl dance.

I swear I read "big gay dance" (without the "Brawl") when I last checked this thread - you didn't edit your post, did you?? Regardless, I support this idea.

Anyway, I still haven't even narrowed down my choices.... looks like another last-minute entry for me =/

[Linkjing Donuts]

ok i will enter this one only because i cannot pass up the chance to draw super saiyan

[Nohbody]

I WILL ACCEPT SUPER SAIYANS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT VIDYAN RELATED SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE SUPER SAIYANS



Do it yourself and enter. No entry is too bad.
you have no idea man

[relyanCe]

I think this one might end up as a boss-month redux cuz almost every boss ever has a "final form" of some sort. Am I far off?

Actually I'm just bumping but felt I needed to contribute something along with it...

[Gollgagh]

I've got an idea which isn't a boss and it's also not STAR POWER

[cobaltstarfire]

Yeah I'm not doing a boss either :P

Besides how can bosses be the ultimate power if the player ends up winning in the end most the time!

[relyanCe]

How right you are. I stand corrected :razz:

[Bleck]

bump in the night

[Nyuura]

I din't drawr no boss, though Ganon's "DANGI'MHUGE" boar-thing form was very... tempting.

This is not a bump. :< Okay, it is...

[cobaltstarfire]

My entry has been sent in, this month has been a fun little experiment with add layers. :D

[relyanCe]

I have a quick question about the topic.

As far as ultimate power goes, how broad are we going? Are we talking top condition, an ultimate attack, a sort of best-possible-setup RPG kinda thing, or all of that? I know we're generally pretty stretchy, but I wanted to make sure.

[Aninymouse]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v153/ANinyMouse/imagination.jpg

Use it.

[Nyuura]

Are we talking top condition

http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb146/theunleadedpath/pikachu.png

an ultimate attack

http://digilander.libero.it/squall2002/omnislash.jpg

a sort of best-possible-setup RPG kinda thing

Uh, not what I had in mind. :-P

[Bleck]

this bump of mine glows with an awesome POWERRRRRRR

[friendlyHunter]

Hmm, last day is the Sunday the 23rd..... I have a great idea for this one, I hope i can find enough time to finish it...

[Sindra]

I'm ashamed to say I'm just starting this now.


We'll see where I get, or if I make the deadline.

[Bleck]

I myself am going to enter and I probably won't even start until after the deadline

[Bleck]

bumping From A Mac

[Rambo]

I myself am going to enter and I probably won't even start until after the deadline

What does this MEEAN?? :puppyeyes:

[Ninja-san]

[Bleck]

Deadline is 23 HOURS or so

[Rambo]

Deadline is 23 HOURS or so

I am not pleased.

[Sindra]

You and me both. This will not be anything other than a penciling from me this time. I didn't have time to work on it extensively.

[relyanCe]

started late last night. hopefully i'll have something up by 12 am.

[Bleck]

Just letting everyone know that next month will be a special theme picked by me. The winner of this month's contest will get to pick the theme for January.

[friendlyHunter]

I haven't started yet, looks like I have to sit this one out =( I might make it later though, it was a pretty good idea Xo

Just letting everyone know that next month will be a special theme picked by me.

Is it Christmas/holiday/winter/Decemberween?? I can't wait!

[relyanCe]

Again, I manage to slip one in just as the contest closes! Hope you guys enjoy the nod to a certain new (awesome) game.

:<seriously, this entry sucks imo. I'll be absolutely surprised if it gets even 1 vote...

[Bleck]

The deadline is technically here, but since I'm lazy and it's like one in the morning I probably won't do anything for another twelve hours. SO THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO SUBMIT IF YOU HAVEN'T

[Nyuura]

Sonic Unleashed? :-P

[relyanCe]

Sonic Unleashed? :-P

Maybe.

[Bleck]

It certainly does!

[friendlyHunter]

It certainly does!

Hahaha, I'm sure that wasn't on purpose Bleck =p

[Linkjing Donuts]

[Bleck]

if you can do it in the next half a day or so yeah

[Linkjing Donuts]

no problem

[Rambo]

Damnit. I was gonna draw something at 11:52pm when i woke up from my nap. But i didn't think I could get it onto photobucket that quick. lol. Post something when youre no longer accepting them Bleck. Maybe I'll get something in in the morning.:<

[Sindra]

Ugg...I rushed to make the midnight deadline and only got mine about 60% finished.


Note to self - never go drinking when you have to finish a art piece in the same night. I get too sleepy to focus.

[Bleck]

WHY AM I STILL AWAKE arghhh

[relyanCe]

mine sucked.

It certainly does!

Hahaha, I'm sure that wasn't on purpose Bleck =p

:oops: I hate it when I miss connections like that... lol

[Linkjing Donuts]

ahahahah fuck i missed it


oh well, i'm still gonna draw it and post it here

[Linkjing Donuts]

ok should i still try and pm it or should i just post my MOST ULTIMATE POWER EVER FOREVER here

[Bleck]

[relyanCe]

[bonzai!]

I agree with this statement.

[Bleck]

[Ninja-san]

Great turn out as well as art.
Gratz to all!

[Nyuura]

Entry number 3... Is... Is that a towering pillar of hair...?

Oh, man, great, great submissions. <3

[Bleck]

oh shit entry three did some shrinkage

edit: fixed

[Sindra]

I really wished I'd had more time to work on my piece. Glad to know it wasn't the only CV one, though.

[Aninymouse]

Fucking awesome month, guys.

[relyanCe]

I really wished I'd had more time to work on my piece. Glad to know it wasn't the only CV one, though.

Right on. Castlevania for the frickin WIN.

[cobaltstarfire]

Entry number 3... Is... Is that a towering pillar of hair...?

Oh, man, great, great submissions. <3

Yeah, I haven't laughed so much in a long time number 3 is epic. XD

[DJ Mighty]

I really wished I'd had more time to work on my piece. Glad to know it wasn't the only CV one, though.

thats pretty much me every month. i never get to actually finish or do a fully finished piece. i just submitted my sketch this month, which sucks cuz i was really excited about doing something from Shadow Hearts and i think it would have came out really good if i was able to color it.

[Linkjing Donuts]

owiehfowaehf shlorp

[Gollgagh]

shh linkjing, these are supposed to be anonymous

even though I already know which piece is yours

[Linkjing Donuts]

I honestly hope people vote for me because my art is good and not because I have tits.


Seriously....my art is sometimes better than my tits.

[cobaltstarfire]

I have no solid idea who in this thread is and isn't female, normally I don't really care or am aware of gender, but now I'm really curious.

[Rambo]

Bleck and Gollgagh are girls. That's all I know.

You forgot me and yourself also.

[Ninja-san]

Another one for the "whos a girl tally"

...

[cobaltstarfire]

Never going to get a strait answer on this one I guess, cause half this thread is full of peanut gallery it appears. :P

Oh yeah, and since we've multi bumped this thing I guess it's a good time for a "vote nao pls!" or something so Bleck doesn't have to!

[Bleck]

too late VOTE NAO

[relyanCe]

Voted. This month was definitely >9000.

[Bleck]

Voting will extend until basically tonight. Winners and new thread will be announced tomorrow.

[Edit]
Well that answers my question =D

[Bleck]

On the internet, female is a typo.

BLECK. it IS tomorrow.

[Bleck]

okay DOING THIS NOWish

[Bleck]

for information's sake, nyuura got more points than anyone else combined

edit: http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=19729 new thread for this month is up

[friendlyHunter]

for information's sake, nyuura got more points than anyone else combined
You mean... everyone else combined??! =O

[Rambo]

You mean... everyone else combined??! =O

No, because if he meant that, then he's either mistaken or lying.
I assume he meant any two other people combined.

[friendlyHunter]

Ah, so then 2nd and 3rd combined. Any two others combined. Any S[i] + S[j] s.t. i != j. I'll shut up now.

[Bleck]

no actually if you take everyone else's scores and then you take nyuura's score nyuura's was still higher

[Rambo]

no actually if you take everyone else's scores and then you take nyuura's score nyuura's was still higher

Bleck. Every voter is supposed to distribute 6pts. A maximum of 3pts going to the first place. So even if EVERY SINGLE VOTE had nyuura ranked as 1st, the combined total of the other distributed points should be the exact same.

3pts for first = 3pts

2pts for second + 1pt for third = 3pts

At the VERY MOST, nyuura should've matched everyone else combined.

[friendlyHunter]

I've yet to disprove you, but I'll trust Bleck for now!

Uhh, maybe somebody forgot to vote for second and third place.
