- Background done with a middle gradient, then Neon Glow and one other filter I can't recall. lol
- Text font is Neuropol. 1 px border to text was applied. Then, the inner parts of the letters were filled with a Blue/transparent standard gradient from top-to-bottom.
- 36% Opacity layer with copper gradient affecting the whole banner except for the 1 px border.
- Eyes were recolored by Replace Color and Brightness/Contrast functions, then blurred to minimize pixelation.
- Pure black layer set to 40% Opacity just above Leafeon to give a "shadowy" look.
Piece/Relation-to-Challange Details:
Yet another piece where I did random things for a random result, but with one idea I wanted tyo stay away from; Smeargle. Smeargle is ALWAYS seen in banners that advertise pokemon art, so I decided to incorperate my favorite pokemon family into this challange: Eeveelutions. xDD The sad Jolteon and Eevee resemble the dissappointment of competitors that have fallen in this competition. The grumpy Flareon resembles what some competitors may think of their scores. lol It also resembles a weird combination of jealousy (jealous of the top artists) and determination (a motive to catch up with those top artists). Leafeon resembles the very small handful of artists in the competition that not only rose above everyone else and has the potential to win, but it also resembles that the top artists will likely want to brag... maybe a little too much (I'll admit, I'm somewhat guilty of that lol), but hey, if you're EXTREMELY proud of your masterpieces, you'd brag, too. xD The picture overall basically shows the autmoshpere of the competition and the small handful of competitors that will be looked at by others as the people-to-beat throughout the competition. The somewhat evil look that Leafeon gives off is suppose to resemble how some competitiors may look at tough, top artists. (It's kinda hard to explain in actual words, but I think you kinda get what I mean. Kinda like a rivalry situation.)
Time Required:
4 hours
Personal Thoughts:
Just like before, I tried something new I've never tried before. In this case, I tried using dark colors for much of the banner, but not too dark. The background somehow just managed to magically give the effect that I loved so much with Leafeon. There's randomness for ya. lol Overall, I love it. But there's just something bugging me about it, too.... But I can't quite pinpoint it....
Of course, when trying something new, I also love getting feedback, so... bring on your critism, BR, so I can make this banner look kick a-... You get what I mean. xD Besides, I might be able to fix whatever is bugging me when I go back to edit it.

RE: Project Custom-The Elite Fan Creations Tournament BY INVITATION ONLY!
No offense, but i really don't like you using my work to get you a high score in a competition. Can you please edit it and take it out?
oh, and you used other peoples' work in the banner, so the feedback does not go entirely to you.

Dude who cares. It's really not a big deal. He's using everyone's work from the last round, and you don't see us telling him to take ours out.

Ok, here is my final entery:
Image: Rayquaza - Ken Sugimori image
Background- Typed "lighting" in google, then edited it in GIMP
Text-"Project Custom", and "Who will be #1" - Goudy Stout
-"Brought to you by Black Rayquaza" - Visitor -brk-
Sorry BRay for not making an animation, but when I tried to, the whole pic became blurry, so I didn't post it.
