If your unfamiliar with the FAC, here is some interesting reading material.

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 (most of the time) 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?
The OCR community. Anyone who wants to vote, can vote.

How does voting work?
You vote for your three favorite entries, from first to third. These entries are given points based on the order in which you voted for them in. For example,

1st. Rambo
2nd. bonzai
3rd. Nyuura

In this case, Rambo would get 3 points, bonzai would get 2, and Nyuura would get 1 (although Nyuura gets three most of the time).

When and how do we see the results?
After the voting period is over, I'll announce the winner and show the tallied scores for all entries.

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

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.


DEADLINES!

[Brushfire]

OMG, This is perfect. I finally have some time to enter, and the best freaking topic ever has come up!!

I AM IN!!

[Ninja-san]

nice theme coop

[atmuh]

my entry for this would be too good and thus unfair to the rest so i will refrain

[relyanCe]

is this VS. as in crossover or fighting?

[JH Sounds]

I almost feel compelled to do this, cuz the deadline happens to be my birthday. :<

[The Coop]

is this VS. as in crossover or fighting?

It's Sega made games/characters going up against Nintendo made games/characters. Have them thumb wrestle, fight, bowl, have a hot dog eating contest, put on a talent show, measure bra cup sizes... whatever floats your boat. As long as one side is trying to best the other in some form or fashion.

[friendlyHunter]

Aha! I thought of a great idea that's too awesome to not draw - but I'm not 100% sure it fits with the theme exactly. Should I tell you what it is Coop, or just "let the voters decide" like I usually do?

Actually.... if you look at it another way, it does fit the theme completely. I'm not sure if people will look at it "that way" though =p

Bah who cares I'm drawing it anyway :tomatoface:

[Vilecat]

I'll see if this month will yet another round of procrastination from my part or an actual artwork.

[Sindra]

Ooo...I have some great ideas. Lets see if I get them to paper this time.

[relyanCe]

competition gets bonus points if nobody does mario or sonic

[SynthesizedStampede]

If I can finish this little sketch of mine this week, I can enter. However, it's been sitting there for quite awhile...

...oh and relyanCe I'll totally take that challenge if I don't feel my original entry, which, in replying this way, obviously involves Mario/Sonic in some way :-(.

[TehDonut]

Bee you em pee

[friendlyHunter]

I finally finished today!

Well, finished practice sketches.

Started practice sketches.




...for Marvel vs Capcom.

BUT I'M STILL GOING TO FINISH BEFORE THE DEADLINE THIS TIME!! I plan to use a style I don't usually draw in though... not that there is a style I usually draw in. But I have NO IDEA if it'll turn out nearly as good as the picture in my head. I guess we'll see...

(Only one week left by the way)

[relyanCe]

competition gets bonus points if nobody does mario or sonic


y'know how i said this and all?




well i just got a great great GREAT idea, but it... kinda needs sonic and mario... so i'm going back on my words :|

[friendlyHunter]

I think there's a chance your idea and my idea might be the same idea.

[Sindra]

Ugg...I'm gonna try to get mine done in time for the deadline....but I move this weekend. This makes me sad because I have a killer picture.

[Rambo]

well i just got a great great GREAT idea, but it... kinda needs sonic and mario... so i'm going back on my words :|

I was gonna do Luigi fighting Knuckles just to spite you... but now there's no point.

[Vilecat]

Definitely not entering this month, but for my defense, I'm taking care of freshmen and babies as part of my new jobs.

[bonzai!]

Phew, had a free afternoon and evening, so I buckled down and did my entry :)

Reminding everyone that the deadline is THIS SUNDAY. So git to it!

[linkspast]

So When do we get to vote?

[The Coop]

[DJ Mighty]

my stupid scanner isnt working, i can not scan my pic till tomorrow morning at work. : (

[bonzai!]

hey dj mighty!

SINCE WE HAVE VERY FEW ENTRIES THIS MONTH, I'll extend the deadline to TOMORROW, MONDAY THE 28TH by midnight. So anyone who's still working on an entry, or rushing to finish, you have 24 more hours!

[Sindra]

Oh shit!

Disregard my entry then, Bonzai! I hadn't fully finished it, but now I can since you extended the deadline! YAY!!

*goes to sleep now*

[friendlyHunter]

Hooray, now my entry can be in colour!*



*There is no guarantee whatsoever that my entry will be in colour.

[DJ Mighty]

this makes me very happy

[relyanCe]

my internet cut out last night and i couldn't upload

thanks for extending! now i can actually do a background for my pic!

EDIT: sent mine in.

[bonzai!]

keep em coming guys! just 3 more hours!

[Sindra]

A few minutes late, but otherwise on time!

[friendlyHunter]

There's still another 2 hours!

I know it's a risky move, but I'm about to start inking my pencil drawing... wish me luck!

[friendlyHunter]

Ruinated! Always remember to choose the right pen thickness kids! I guess that's what Photoshop is for.

OMG where's the scanner?! Well, that's the end of that chapter.


Shit that marker has some hideous fumes, I'm going to bed.


shit










And this has been another disappointing non-entry from friendlyHunter. Tune in next episode, when his cat throws up on the drawing as it's being scanned three weeks after the deadline.

[bonzai!]

aww friendlyhunter, that makes me sadfaced

Um, it seems that photobucket is undergoing some maintenance right now...I'll check again in 30 mins, but if that's still the case I might have to wait until tomorrow to upload the entries. JUST LETTIN YOU GUYS KNOW.

EDIT: yaaay, photobucket's working! Just edited the first post, entries are up, let the voting commence!

Deadline for voting will be this FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2ND. PM your top 3 picks to me by then :3

[Vilecat]

Vote sent! It's nice to see no one picked the same characters either :D

[relyanCe]

who's the orange haired dude in pic 1?

[DJ Mighty]

who's the orange haired dude in pic 1?

i believe its the guy from comix zone

[friendlyHunter]

Awesome entries!

aww friendlyhunter, that makes me sadfaced
No worries; I can trace over it to make new lineart on another paper. And now I know where the scanner is!

[bonzai!]

Yaaay! Well, you should definitely still post your picture here if you get around to finishing it :D

[Sindra]

Can't tell you how many times I've wanted to finish a piece even after missing the deadline, but ya kinda lose all heart.

[Vilecat]

That's why you always have to keep a bottled fairy with you

[Rambo]

hahaha. SO bad. :tomatoface:

[Sindra]

Hadn't thought of that one yet. Thanks.

[relyanCe]

y'know

entry 5


looks kinda disgusting if you stare at it for a bit

[The Coop]

Shit. The voting deadline was yesterday? I thought it ended this weekend.

[Sindra]

Shit. The voting deadline was yesterday? I thought it ended this weekend.

I think voting ends whenever Bonzai gets around to posting the results.

[bonzai!]

edited the first post with the results! <3

[friendlyHunter]

Congrats! I thought #4 was going to be The Coop's =P

So bonzai, when are you going to tell bonzai the new theme?

[Dhsu]

You sure know the way to a geek's heart, bonzai.

[bonzai!]

hahaha, thanks Dhsu :)

And thanks for the votes guys! I threw the Dragoon in there because 1) I really don't know that many homemade Sega games, and 2) to kinda maybe make up for last month's competition :?



I'll have the next FAC thread up later today...and please don't hate me for the new theme, I'm thinking we're going have a "WTF" month (which will hopefully be fun and silly, but then again it might kill the competition FOREVER).

EDIT:
FAC 29! (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?p=600185#post600185)

[Rambo]

y'know

entry 5

Hahaha I KNOW. Why the heck were you staring at it for a bit??? I noticed this when I was thinking of whether it should be black and white... or white and black. But I thought... no one will look at it for more than a minute.

[friendlyHunter]

???

I guess I haven't looked at it long enough yet.
