Mediator:



Additional pot donators since first challenge:
2000 FG
Anonymous 1000 FG

TOTAL AS OF NOW: 10000 FG
_________________________

All entry fees will be sent to our mediator for this challenge and is FINAL.

_________________________


Each entry will be a 200 FG fee, leaving a chance of winning at least 50 fg if you make the 2nd place. The deadline for each competition will be the stated starting dates written below; 1st/11 - 8th/11 - 15th/11 and 22nd/11.



This challenge will be divided in four separate competitions, and each competition has a winner and a 2nd price.

Each challenge will take place one week at the time starting November 1st with a 7 days deadline (First entry will be deadline Sunday 7th/11 - 23:59 Berlin GMT) and then they continue 8th-14th, 15th-21st, 22nd-28th.

There will be different rules for each one, so please read carefully before you start making your piece of art for the entry. Time is money.

NOTE: You are not obliged to enter all four of the competitions, and the entry pot will be separate for each challenge, so if we have fewer entries on one challenge than the other, the final pot for that challenge will be smaller than the other. However, if you wish to enter all four, you may of course do so.

GENERAL RULES:

* Each entry must abide to the site rules and also the general signature rules:

* Signature: Entire size of signature should not exceed 400 pixels wide by 150 pixels high, and 70 KB in size. No offensive or crude material images.

* No Judges may enter the competition.

* All signature entries must show before and after results

* No signature entry can be taken from google. (Assets are okay, but not complete compositions).

* No signature entry may be a GIF taken from the internet simply looped and cut.

* No signature entry may be a video taken down from YouTube or such, simply looped and cut.

* No entry may be copied from a style off the internet such as tutorials, all work must be original art works.

* No entry may be ripped or directly copied from either google or d2jsp.

* All entry fees are FINAL and there will be no refunds to your fee being payed.

* Once you posted your artwork, edits are not allowed. Edits will disqualify you from the current challenge.

* Every artwork must be uploaded to https://imgur.com or it will not be qualified.

The prize for the competition will be divided by the entry fee pot, by 75% to the winner and 25% to the 2nd place, plus the additional FGs I provide which is a total of 4000 FG (750 FG to each #1 winner and 250 FG to #2)

Challenge #3: Smudge art

This entry will be judged by
- Overall blending
- Focal point and focus
- Smudgework flow
- Colour diversity


Rules:
- No entry may be copied from a style off the internet, all work must be originals
- All signatures entries must be shown before and after results
- All signature entries must be done by brush and not effect tools, such as liquify.


NOTE: tools
- All signature entries must include atleast one of the samples provided.



A good example for a smudge work is to find a good art render, cut it out, find the light sources and create your new background and blend it in. Here’s a good example:


Remember that your piece must be within the general signature rules for your piece to apply as an entry.

Prize:

#1 Winner: 75% of Donated pot 1/4 PLUS 75% of entry fee pot for the current challenge.
#2 Winner: 25% of Donated pot 1/4 PLUS 25% of entry fee pot for the current challenge.

Difference between self made and royalty free.


In the future you can use websites like - https://www.pngfind.com/

They're all royalty free images that anyone can use for commercial and non-commercial work.



The image I wanted to use is watermarked as well. :(

Can we keep this clean with only submissions please? Any questions are referred to me or arch.

It’s super easy to remove that small watermark, if you have a problem with it, use another one provided. Nothing here have been claimed self made or royalty free. If it’s an issue with you to not own your created tag in the end, simply don’t enter.

You’re not obliged to enter the competition, it’s a challenge provided for those who want to. If you want to host your own one where you can choose the rules and provided images, by all means feel free to set one up, we won’t be there to spam your payed threads, instead we will respectfully PM you with questions.

Thank you.

Thanks maybe next time bro, in this challenge we wanted to challenge guy with the cutting of their render, their position etc from a wallpaper/image. This is the reason we dont provide PNG.
Maybe next time.. :) :banana:
