My sincerest apologies, guys, on the delay of AotW #5!

I realized that some of you might not've found the themed week to be quite as fun -- not many of you had spare art you could use for the theme, and I know it can be difficult to find motivation to complete a piece you're satisfied with in a limited time.

That's why this week is back to having no theme. Submissions can be of anything -- not just Pokémon fanart! This contest encourages everyone to compete and put their best foot forward, not to win, but to have fun. Graphic Design and Digital Art are both accepted in this contest., in which you can submit any of your artwork that you wish!

Each artist will be limited to 1 entry, so choose your submission carefully!

Deadline: Saturday, October 15th

--------
Guidelines
--------
  1. Art submission.
    You can submit your own work into this contest, or others can submit work on your behalf. In such a situation, the original artist will be contacted for approval.
    ---
  2. You may have only one piece of artwork submitted each week.
    This includes work you submit for yourself, and work others submit for you.
    ---
  3. Constructive comments only.
    We all want this to be a fun event, so if you have something to say, make sure it's for the benefit of the artist.
    ---
  4. Allowable art.
    Signatures, pictures, wallpapers, and drawings are all allowed. There's not much of a limit, so let's see what you can do!


--------
How will this competition work?
--------
  1. Entries will be collected...
    For a fun, competitive contest, we need entries! Not only will there be more competition with more entries, but it will also be another way to showcase the artistic talent of PokéBeach members!
    ---
  2. ...and pooled together for a community vote
    Voting community-style will give every artist an opportunity to win.

RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5!

Why would the deadline be so close? I mean, I have something I could submit, but it seems the contest is over already?
 
RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5! Submissions due Friday, October 8th!

Oh hey glad I saw this
(although it seems like no one else did...)
So lets see... I'll enter this:

It was a still life done in oil pastels, with a purple monochromatic color scheme on red paper.
 
RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5! Submissions due Friday, October 8th!

Thanks for you entry, shampoo-thief! It looks beautiful...I've always loved working with pastels.

I'm going to extend the deadline another week to Saturday, October 15th. Hope to see some more participants!
 
RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5! Deadline extension...until Saturday, October 15th!

I keep forgetting to really check these forums. I'll add this, since there are no restrictions.

Do we post it here or PM it to you?
 
RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5! Deadline extension...until Saturday, October 15th!

Post it here, FatalAeroX.
 
RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5! Deadline extension...until Saturday, October 15th!

A question here: Can it be neither graphic design nor digital? I want to submit something done with old-fashioned physical art supplies.
 
RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5! Deadline extension...until Saturday, October 15th!

^Yeah you can do it in any medium. My entry wasn't digital or GD.

Edit: Thanks a lot CMP, I'm glad you like it. I love working with pastels too, they are great to blend

I had some time tonight so I finished coloring a sketch of my sister's.
So I'll enter this:

There we go, I've finally finished.

Totally free of digital effects and totally free of compositing--everything you see here was exactly how it was scanned in.

RE: The long-awaited...Art of the Week #5! Now voting -- vote by Tuesday night, October 18th!

Thanks everyone for your entries! We'll now enter the voting stages. Remember, this is a community vote, so everyone (not just the participants) are able to vote. Because there are only six enties this week, each voter gets one vote.

I think I'll vote for #6 because I'm stoked about Sonic Generations and I'm pleased someone else here is too.
