Thanks for pointing that out, I'll add that right away. Sunday is the date due.

I am not quite sure about what we have to draw, anything related to Olympics? Doesn't matter if it's Pokemon?

what are the olympians? the only thing pokemon & olympics I can think of is the season 1 finale at indigo plateau. I wish my kiln were wired up for this competition or i'd do a glass moltres sculpture. dangit...

The Olympians are the the Greek Gods that live atop Mt. Olympus, in basic terms. The piece doesnt have to be related to Pokémon in any way, just you know. You can draw what you like, so long as it relates in some way to The Olympians.

Oh gosh xD I was thinking of the sports events......
that sounds very interesting though, I will have a go

Oh wow yeah, I wasn't even close. I never would have put those two together here. If I were going to enter I'd go more pokemon related. Points for originality of concept though, GL with it.

The topic is deliberately vague, so it's however you choose to interpret the word "Olympics". In short, there's no wrong answer! If that means Pokemon, draw pokemon. If it makes you think of sporting events, draw it. If it inspires you to draw apples, do it! It's completely up to you. Just tell us why, is all.

can i use any graphics software or it must be hand-drawn? and what is the last date for submitting the artwork?

The OP states that you can use any artistic means at your disposal to create your piece, as long as the final piece submitted, be it a graphical piece or a photo is no larger than 800x800px.

The final date is Sunday 12pm PST, and judging will be done overnight and results given out on the Monday, via PM if not through this thread. Although at this rate there's going to be nothing to judge >_>

In the vast amount of events around I didn't see this one. I'm signing up!

Come on guys, I want enough contestants to warrant all the emblems!

So um "Try and get your submission in by Sunday!" can you give me an exact time (how many hours left? and if you do extend, how many hours will that be?) when this is due? I was working on by the end of Sunday since I assume that included Sunday because you didn't give a time. I highly suggest that you keep waiting until the end of Sunday because at least three people are interested and there's no harm in waiting an extra day and art takes a while... and I really am struggling to get stuff done by deadlines that are before the end of the GT for some reason but I wanna enter stuff lol So...please? :)

Sorry, I've been jumping between events and have become very disorganised, as per my usual. The end of the contest will then be 12pm PST on Sunday. Any submissions not received by then won't be counted. Is that okay?

Double post and what m8

Alrighty, so I've got two entries so far. Just reminding people who want to enter that the deadline is tomorrow folks!

I'll sign up, see what I can do in a day. Any medium physical or digital correct?

That is correct, though I guess you've gathered that by now x)

So the contest is now closed. I will be posting the four pieces here, and the ordering shall be decided soon. Seriously though, only four pieces? That's barely enough to cover the emblems... And I KNOW there are more of you who are artistic...

Anyway, a BIG thank you to everyone who DID send in a piece. I mean, you guys made it so that this event was able to get to completion, so I owe you big thanks there.

Anyway, without further ado, here are the four pieces I received:
EDIT: Voting is over, and the results are in!


Again, thank you all so much for competing. I know there weren't a lot of you, and we barely made it to the number of emblems I have, but you guys bothered, so thank you so much for that! <3

I'd like to pull out my entry. Third place was copy-paste entirely with only a few things erased (and blurred a little) and only a thick black artline, which doesn't blend into the background at all, and just seems thrown on. Entries number one and two I'm absolutely ok with losing to but for something that was primarily found in Google images (which to me doesn't really reflect art in the traditional sense, creative image placement I guess but certainly not art) compared to something I put a ton of work into doesn't really feel fair, so I'm withdrawing my piece, sorry. Voting was also only for five hours which I don't think is enough time to successfully gauge from the community (esp since I was even asleep during that). Would you be able to discuss why that piece placed over mine? I'd love to know the scoring system.
