"Oh deary me" I see people think when they read this title. I've looked around the forum and found that the last one was 1 year ago. :eek:
So... for those about to rock with paint: start your mindboggling ideas and let the best painter win! :D
Facts:
Starting date: RIGHT NOW!! :rolleyes:
Ending date: hmm... 15 December?
Rules: Has to have something to do with worms.
Poll will decide who wins :)

Is that paint as in MSPaint, or paint as in watercolours and a brush?

Apocalypse
9 Nov 2006, 16:38
It's MSpaint... you'll be suprised how good some people can use it.
Oh and ehm.. any other program is allowed BUT only use the tools that are available in MS paint. (no blur filters or fading stuff, simply pencil, bucket etc... )

Paul.Power

I'm amazed it's been that long, but oh, well.
I'll get on it when I have a moment.

Alien King
9 Nov 2006, 16:48
Obviously that includes no anti-aliasing or layering. It would probably be easier to actually Use MSPaint.

Apocalypse
9 Nov 2006, 16:55
You're allowed to use everything that MSPaint can do... doesn't matter what program you're using. Only MSPaint-abilities are allowed to be used.
For non-MS Paint proggies... this will be alot of "undo"-ing ghehehe.
One more thing, once you've finished (or want to save it) save it in PNG format!!
This format garantees the same quality as you have in paint. jpg screws stuff up and gif only allows 256 colors.

wormthingy
9 Nov 2006, 17:27
how about fake anti-aliasing? like getting the antialias effect by drawing with a 1 pixel brush?
e.g.
left = antialiasd
right = pixel by pixel fake antialiasd

If you do it by hand, it's allowed. Else it's an effect/filter, thus not allowed. :)

Liketyspli
9 Nov 2006, 18:22
yes but how do you know? someone can say he did it in paint while he used another program...

Apocalypse
9 Nov 2006, 18:35
effects/filters use tons of colors, hand-drawn images usually stop at 3-5 pixels for an effect.
So OTT stuff or highly (superhigh) detailed stuff is usually not hand made... or you outta be a real GOD with paint... or have way too much free time :rolleyes:

The problem wit ha MSpaint compo is that it usually depends greatly on whoever has the most free time.

As I remember last time, there was an unfinished entry that was pretty dam good and got a few votes too.
You see, the state in wich a pic is, doesn't matter. If the start is good and is kept up with time, it had a fair chance.
Splapp's entry wasn't finished either, but came close 2nd (or won :o ).

Y'know, I really woulda thought that using just the circle and line tools would be enough to draw your worms...

*opens msn drawboard*
*examins detail of drawing*
No, msn uses anti-aliasin' stuff.. msn if not allowed.
Besides... paint has more options than msn:eek:

Paul.Power
9 Nov 2006, 19:24
Y'know, I really woulda thought that using just the circle and line tools would be enough to draw your worms...No. Then they lose all their subtle variation. You've seen all the slating Aku gets for his vector drawing style.
I do use a circle-and-line template in CPP8 and GIMP which I then draw over to ensure a degree of consistency, but that's it.

he already diceded.. flash antialiasses stuff,which is not allowed in this competition, and i dont think there's a way to turn it off, you could draw it again in paint.
what did i do? i was just joking, and theres no need for using the F you can just ask me politely...

Paul.Power
9 Nov 2006, 23:16
ISTR ("I seem to remember/recall") is easily my favourite. I'm not sure why. It may be because the acronym starts with a one-letter word anyway, or that "remember" has three syllables.

Plasma

Ironically the best picture Luke has ever posted in this very forum was misplaced and uncalled for... :rolleyes:
Even though he pretty much fails at art, i feel compelled to say he brings endless joy and mocking material to this forum. Ok... maybe not endless, but surely a whole lot of them... :)
What would we be without Agent Luke? :p

Vader
10 Nov 2006, 00:45
All done in MSpaint with the brush, the bucket and the lasso:

edit: why aren't the image tags working?
edit2: oh, they are.
edit3: FINE. Link.

Pigbuster
10 Nov 2006, 00:56
FORBlDDEN.

Vader
10 Nov 2006, 01:02
Fixed (I think).
I'm a bit miffed it isn't working in an img tag... any ideas?

Pigbuster
10 Nov 2006, 01:05
Probably because it's still forbidden.
I'm a bit miffed
Miff-a-biff-biff, three men in a skiff.
No, that had no point. It just plopped in the head and I wanted to share it with the world.
[EDIT]And I just realized that what I just said could be interpreted as a poo joke.
That makes 2 things that just came out of no where in this single post. WORLD RECORD.

Vader
10 Nov 2006, 01:08
Well I didn't forbid it and it's on my webspace.
I've attached a smaller version. I like the bigger version. :(
edit: OK, so if you click the link it is forbidden but if you press go on the browser it will show... or selected the address bar and hit enter... I need to fiddle with my htaccess file, it seems.

Pigbuster
10 Nov 2006, 01:11
Was that really made in paint?
Or did it just get anti-aliasing from the resize? <MAH BET'S ON THAT ONE.

Vader
10 Nov 2006, 01:13
AA from the resize... see my post edit to see the full size one.

Slick
10 Nov 2006, 02:05
Well here is what I ended up doing so far. This is just a preveiw. However I doubt if I finish it.

and so slick wins.. again..

Apocalypse
10 Nov 2006, 10:20
Don't jump to conclusions...
Some people still want to enter (I hope) and there's plenty of time left to finish drawing.
@ Slick: read the first few posts -_- it says save in png format..
OR, did you do that on purpose to people cant copy the preview? (as if we would dare :rolleyes:)

Akuryou13
10 Nov 2006, 13:43
awesome job there, vader. it's almost questionable about if that was, in fact, done entirely in paint. I do, however, recognise the tell-tale paint signs available in the larger view of that image. so good show! very nice!
and slick, I hate you. I hate you for all that you have ever been. that image is set to be the most detailed and unbelievable paint image ever......go die somewhere :p

Melon
10 Nov 2006, 13:50
I was thinking of entering, but with the absolutely amazing picturs people have made ALREADY, I don't think I'll bother. It'll be like a child's drawing in comparison.

It also means "Same Thing For U".
This is why I despise internet acronyms.
Nobody in the history of the world has ever uttered the phrase "same thing for you". Why on Earth would we need an acronym (or more accurately, an initialism) for it?

Thank you very much.

Either way, spectacular job on that pic Vader.

Pigbuster
10 Nov 2006, 22:38
Nobody in the history of the world has ever uttered the phrase "same thing for you".
I've heard of it as the worst comeback possible. i.e., "You suck." "Yeah? Well, same thing for you!"
If that bad comeback doesn't actually exist, then I'd be surprised, as it means that my brain has completely fabricated memories of hearing it.
Not that that's impossible. The mind is crazy like that.
And I prefer to think of it that way rather than Shut The Frack Up, as I interpret it as a bad comeback, so whoever says STFU looks like a fool to me.

Yes, I know.
As I said in my post, until I work out why my htaccess file is forbidding team17.com from hotlinking my images you'll have to do one of the following:
1 - Click the link.
2 - When the link hs loaded and you are shown the forbidden page, press the "Go" button on your browser's address bar.
or
1 - Click the link.
2 - Highlight the URL in the address bar.
3 - Press the Enter button on your keyboard.
or
1 - Copy the link location.
2 - Paste it into the address bar.
3 - Press Enter.

Slick
14 Nov 2006, 03:21
I'm slightly confused as to how the rocky outcrop is far more heavily shaded than the worm.
Aye, that is because when I made it I drew everything in black. Then I went in and added colors to make it look the way it did. Now, everything I did to the worm to make it look shaded like that just didn't work. So after hours of figureing out how to shade the worm at all, that's what I got.
I could of added more colors to the land thing but meh.

Pigbuster
14 Nov 2006, 06:29
Certain parts of that look really odd. (The shine on the water isn't perfect.)
It's pretty, though, yah.

if those two things with the hearts are worms then I guess that pic technically counts, but it looks like they were just kinda tacked on as an afterthought.

That picture must have taken far too long to make. Top marks for persistence.
I was going to enter this competition, but never had the patience in the end.

I had to edit the shades on that alot ><

Yes, but not that long, Apoc copy-pasted the meteors, buildings and other stuff, but it's impressive, nonetheless. :p

too late, the contest is over. they don't have any more time to show us what they've got :pSo you suggest that I just select the entries posted in the thread and make a poll out of those?
And I still can't see Slick's new version... just the pre-made thingy...
Post your entries! or you will not be able to get into the poll!!!

20 Dec 2006, 12:13
Ehm.. let's say... if you don't post your entry before... the 22nd of december, you won't get into the poll.
And 22nd of december ends at 23:59:59 (GMT-8) of the 22nd of december, meaning that around my time, it would be morning the 23rd, and I'll post "NO MORE ENTRIES" and I'll start the poll :)

How many items are allowed in a poll?
IIRC, ten.

Apocalypse
24 Dec 2006, 12:29
That leaves Vader to choose his entry (either the gore of the comic one)
And that would make 4 entries too many for a poll..:(
Dang I hate to choose 4 to remove >_<

Vader
24 Dec 2006, 12:31
I'd like to enter my gore pic.
It's actually one of my favourite pieces of fanart I've drawn, despite it being done in Paint. :)
Edit: Seeing as how I'm not holding this competition I'm not sure how much my opinion is worth but I'd axe the following:
Slick's (it's not a finished piece).
Gardy Looo's (it's only just a valid entry anyway; the worm was an afterthought).
I was going to pick 4 for you but I can't.
How about knockout rounds? It would take a few threads but you could do E-102 Worm vs me and then the winner vs Paul, etc.

slicks finished one is on imageshack/photobucket IIRC
Couldn't there be 2 voting threads just like there were two in some of the previous fanartist of the month compo's?
(either the gore of the comic one)
OR, not "of".. you dutch!

sorry, couldn't resistehm.. a 'q' is ALWAYS folowed by a 'u'... nothing to do with being dutch.
What he mentioned was that 'of' in Dutch means 'or' in English... I made a typo, making him think I typed Dutch instead of English.
Anyway, if anyone thinks he doesn't need to enter the poll, please post, because I really, REALLY hate to kick 4 entries out.. :(

How about two polls, each with seven contestants; the top five of each goes to the final poll and the winner wins.

Error404
24 Dec 2006, 14:16
Make 2 polls. Each with half of the entries. Each poll lasting only one day.
When you get the best of each, you make the final poll with the, i don't know, 5 most voted entries.

Apocalypse
24 Dec 2006, 14:17
Four threads for one competition... wow... Ok, I'll be making arrangements for the polls :)
