Recently, the Showdowns on this forum have been completely disappointing. The reason for having artist competitions should be to encourage growth in talent. Instead, they have become discriminating and terribly technical. It is important to have fun, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE IS NO PRIZE TO WIN.
A REAL CONTEST 1
"Hrm. Well I just don't see the point in my putting a puppy in with a fighting pitbull if that makes sense. I think it's pointless to compete in something that has a professional in it. So not to sound like a b*tch but was this just an excuse for you to pwn everyone?Crazy Pan said:"So you entered your own contest? If so then...I'm out >.>"Yup, no rules. Peace-"
"THE_FLASH_313 said:you should enter pan all of your stuff has been awesome so far"Hrm. Well I just don't see the point in my putting a puppy in with a fighting pitbull if that makes sense.

well what do you got to lose? you don't really win anything anyway it's just a chance to get better at what you do and to show off your work

Coming from a race of Cyberia, their race is known to be highly spiritual beings to which a certain few can have a third eye known to be the Eye of EquiaRa.
I will not explain their physiology and anatomy...what you see is what you see! Respect their race please.
Yeah, well I'm sorry to sound like a b***h as well, but I completely agree with Crazy Pan. I was about to go to my little thinking place to draw a picture too but what's the point of a competition if I'm running against a pro. at drawing? You draw amazing an that's why that's your proffesion, we do it for fun and if you ask me, this just killed the fun out of some of us. I know there wasn't any rules and such but again, you're a profesional. I'm not whinning I'm just stating what I think, how'd you feel if Jim Lee would make a competiton and make himself a part of it with 99.9 chance of him winning? Just thought I'd give an example.

I do not see any hindrance of showing your stuff and art to everyone even when you feel you are against a professional.
People here, join for the fun of it or to share their talent. It should never be a drawback or get upset.
I for one, seldom uses the computer to color my work or lazy enough to paint it on canvas but when I see the works of Flash, Bobkane, Blankspot, EGoD among others, it makes me want to show my art as well even if I think mine is still on the raw side and lacks the refinement of what I usually give to my students. What is important is I was able to release my art and draw what I wanted to draw and show our peers.
I believe this is not really a drawing/art contest per se but more of a concept contest..it is that just art comes in as the presentation of your concept. It may be crude as mine or as excellent and professional as Flash but the winning factor here for me is the concept.
I still hope to see your work here.
Here's a good point for everybody to take in.......
When talking about art... there's no better or worse because no one draws the same. All the diffrent styles of art add up to these great Contests/ Showcases etc. Artish Show Off is to Show Off Art no see who is better....
Flash, Bobkane, Blankspot, EGoD, IcePrince_X and more I can't remeber now are all very good at drawing but none of them draw close to how I show artwork. All the styles are diffrent not better or worse. and Inferiorego has a good point....
Don't do it to win, post your art for Fun!!!!!

QUITE YOU FREAKING WHINING!!!
Jesus, this was for fun. Who he hell cares if your going up against a professional. This is to do what you SHOULD enjoy doing anyway, so quite whining. Because im more than sure Egod,Flash, and anyone else who puts these up will just stop altogether if you all dont stop your endless whining.
you don't even win anything and you don't lose anything you get to practice something you enjoy doing and get to show it to hundreds of people

Umm.... no idea really. Just started sketching and she gradually appeared. I know next to nothing about Green Lantern/s sooo... I'm nervous about posting this.
(Grainy looking quality is because I used pencil crayons, among other things, and I don't have any type of photoshop to work with)
Oh and Hi! I'm new to forums and stuff, but I've actually been stalking this site for a little while.
"nice style! Welcome to the forums, and hope you continue to draw!
