This month's theme is LucasArts Adventure Games! "It concerns this lovely bunch of games: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LucasArts_adventure_games Back in the DOS days LucasArts had the best storytelling and humor in the videogame world. Their point 'n click adventure games have gotten more or less extinct but are still loved by a sizeable cult following. I'd like to see some nifty drawings related to Sam 'n Max, Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, Indiana Jones etc. that really give a feeling of fun and ADVENTURE!

They're pretty awesome PM me your votes by SATURDAY, MAY 30TH -------------------------- 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! PM me all entries by SUNDAY MAY 24TH. PM me your votes by SATURDAY, MAY 30TH. -------------------------- Support this competition by wearing one of these fancy sig things, or make one of your own - Quote

Arian Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 Monkey Island or die! How could I forget to mention that one in my write-up?! Those are the best! Quote
Matt E. Waldman Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Oh man, this is the best idea for any fanart competition. I think even I may participate in this. I'm torn between Monkey Island and Full Throttle. Quote

relyanCe Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 It's not the drawing in you sig, is it? that submission is deeply rooted in OCR FAC mythos Quote
Chiral Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I had to look this up. Ohh...I must sit this one out. I have to say, I've never played any of those. >_< I don't think I even had a computer at that time! Yes, I lived in the dark ages. :/ Still, looking forward to seeing what people come up with! Quote
Arian Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Yeah I was a bit worried wheter or not to pick this (awesome) subject... most people into these games are approaching or past their 30ies. I'm not completely sure how much people on ORC are too young. Anyway.. they're gems! Try to get a hold of them, young'uns, especially if you have these qualities: Intelligence, patience, a sense of humor. A love for stories. Quote

A love for stories. *thwacks Arian* I rather mean to say I have the opposite problem, lol. I was always a bit behind the times on technology. Plus computers were expensive then. :/ I'll have to check 'em out. Quote
friendlyHunter Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Signature has arrived. I've never played any LucasArts adventure games, but people keep telling me that I should. Though I have seen a few of their intros, and some gameplay (and played a tiny bit of one), and some trailers too. I've already made up my mind what I'm gonna draw =D Quote
bonzai! Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 Signature has arrived. It's so beautiful. Quote
Gollgagh Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 dammit, I had this awesome idea for a Loom "poster" dealie but I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow and most likely will not either 1. make it back before the deadline or 2. have access to a scanner and internet whilst in Spain Quote
Nyuura Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 *Pukes rainbow sprinkles and unicorns* this is the best theme ever. Quote
Abadoss Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I think I've got an idea of something I could do. We'll see how well I'm able to pull it off, though. Big fan of those old games... Quote
bonzai! Posted May 18, 2009 Author Posted May 18, 2009 bumping the threaaad Deadline for entries is in about a week, SUNDAY MAY 24TH!!! Quote
Davos-Moon Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 whoa, I've miss a lot of stuff, not being around these few months. But I'm back with a submission here. Although I'm not real familiar with these games. Quote
