Question: Do you have to enter all three rounds?
Click to expand...

"Top six are chosen and need to draw their images (can be any Pokemon)."

Noope. :x But either way, time is up now for entering round one.

The judges will decide on top 6 and I'll let ya'll know who makes it through to round 2. :3
 
Alright, I've finished my judging for this round. I'll forgo divulging my scores for this round, just out of courtesy (since there's so many entries). My grading rubric is below. Unlike last year, each parameter is graded off out of 10, for a total of 110, weighted back down to 10.

Aesthetics -- The actual look
  • Use of color -- Whether the piece has color or not, it has to work. If a picture appears to desperately need color (or the colors look odd), then you'll lose points here... But if you make a nice composition in black and white, you'll prosper in this area too.
  • Shapes / Textures -- The shapes and lines in the piece must be clean; the coloring should not be splotchy.
  • Focus / Composition -- The piece must be focused on a certain area and not be too chaotic. If you're just going for a representational piece, you'll get a neutral score here.
  • Movement -- There needs to be a clear sense of space in the piece. Shading is an integral part of this parameter.
  • Proportions -- If the proportions don't make sense (and they aren't intended to be that way), then expect to lose points.
Skill -- The stylistic flair
  • Style -- The medium & the skill level employed in that medium.
  • Consistency -- Is the style consistent throughout the piece? Are there any areas which look oddly different?
  • Effort -- I'll judiciously grade on how much time I personally feel it took you to draw the piece. The more effort the better.
Content -- What's going on
  • Uniqueness -- Is this a unique scene? Has this topic been done to death? You'll lose points if it's just a re-draw of a pre-existing art, but not too many.
  • Appeal -- How much the piece stands out from the rest of the competition.
  • Setting -- Is setting used well in the piece? Does the background complement the focus? Representations lose minor points.
Merit -- Bonus points that I will judiciously give to whatever pieces I feel deserves them the most.

Thank you all for competing in Round 1 of the GT8 Generation V Draw-off!

Spoiler:


For Round 2, draw any Generation V Pokemon. And do your best!
You have 24 hours. Good luck!
 
That was my first attempt at this event, Congratulation's to all of the winners :)
 
Congratz to the winners,wish you best of luck
and remember there's always room to improve,so get your artsy hands busy ^^
 
Soo.... I'm the only one to advance using good ol' fashion paper and pencil? xD I don't think I can compete with the other 5 contestants. :cer_eek: I will do my best, though, using the primitive ways of drawing; a sheet of paper and drawing utensils. :cer_tongue: I should upgrade to a tablet or something. P:
 
Pen,pencil and paper ftw!
OSha_say_wott the future of traditional art is in yours hands ;P
 
OOOh boy, this was a challenge. I'm not very good working with water, so apologies off the bat if I messed up tidal structure and stuff like that. Taking a risk here with this XD Without further ado, yet another one of my favorites: Seismitoad!! It's so cuuute OwO
Spoiler:
 
Fatigue be gone! Oh but those two entries already are awesome. At least I made top 6? xD I'll post mine later, I really need to start at it.
 
I don't have a tablet... I don't draw traditionally anymore. Mouse and pen tool are my weapons. Regardless, GT Art events are a phenomenal opportunity for practice. ^^

Kirozane and Drakow know why I keep thinking about food... *w*

Round 2 Results

Thanks for all the entries, guys! All of them were fantastic this time around. Signomi and I have finished our judging for this round, but naturally, I am probably going to stall giving those out since I like breeding anticipation. If you were really impatient, you wouldn't have gotten to this part of the paragraph, though. But...

Alright! Here they are! The two finalists moving on to the third round are:

Spoiler:


For Round 3, we'll assign each of the contestants a specific Pokemon to draw.
We'll have to wait for our lovely host to return first, though.
You have 24 hours after she returns. Good luck!
 
Come on CommanderPigg!!! This is gonna be an awesome showdown :D
 
woah...thank you. I'm really honored to have gotten this far. And even more honored to have to face off against aragornbird (I'm still in awe at your chandalure pic *_*). Best of luck, ribaru! X3 Either way, it's been great seeing all this awesome art.
