Terraining Contest #16 Ultimate Theme Showdown!

[Celaquil]

Alright!

Thank you, thank you.
- Yes it's me.

So, since the former poll was set to unlimited time and we didn't feel like
we came to any sort of agreement or conclusion, I'll be hosting this new
poll. Including only the top rated themes from the former poll.

I'll give you all 14 days to decide.

Elemental - depict a scene with an element as a prime theme, e.g. earth, fire, water, air, etc.
Cathedrals/Castles - depict a scene with its primary theme being a cathedral/castle in any shape or form.
Historic Events - depict and recreate something cool from history e.g. battle of waterloo or one of those Napoleonic paintings.
The Human Mind - depicts how you think the human mind "works" in a graphic representation.

And if we don't get an overwhelming winner, I'll host the next contest with
a theme of my own choosing. So, don't worry...
(Be happy!)

I'll host the next contest with
a theme of my own choosing.

I bet my 2 cents that would be Happy Happy if ye'd do that sir

Thanks for opening this thread btw.

 

[lokharke]

Castles. I am sticking with it.

 

[Cihparg]

I will vote the Human Mind, and then I will tease that I might've started something, and then I will forget I was making something and quit what I remembered to be doing.
Cih wins the contest hands down, yes?

I voted on Historic Events (Paintings, History), the others were dull. The only one that is still a good is Human's Mind, both of these were the best choices. I am sick and tired in seeing castles or Cathedrals in terraining- very unoriginal for a terraining contest where you have unlimited imagination. Elemental - probably the most easiest to terrain, very unoriginal +boring too. ~My Opinion

Sick and "Tired"??? Hmm. I haven't seen much. Unoriginal for terraining contest, limited imagination, that maybe true depending upon the artist. Who knows, someone may have a very original idea for it.

 

[Strydhaizer]

Elemental will win , thats for sho'

 

[Heinvers]

........

Depends on one's imagination. Since the Terrain Board is about quality, I'm sure the terrainers can come up with something unique even with already used themes as you said

@Strydy, shall we battle again in themes?

 

[Deolrin]

Wow. Cathedral\Castle is so... Generic and boring. D:

Not that I do any terrains or anything, but oh well. Go Elemental\Historic Events!

 

[Deleted member 238589]

It seems that castles and cathedrals are leading again

 

[Strydhaizer]

They can actually build a castle in Historical. So go for historical , no for castles , but im not a fan of both so go for elementals!

 

[A Void]

Looks like castles are at the top, too bad I wont participate in this contest if it wins.

 

[Edge45]

Well, its finally here.
Voting for Castles/Cathedrals or whatevers
because I have a Despicable terrain on my mind.

Sounds like u wouldn't have participated anyways, too much negative energy is not good. I felt that the first time i read yr posts. It'll hamper u and not the random strangers u chat on the net.

Negative energy? lol. Beware, text font Unicode began channeling a bad energy, please put on your safety goggles. *Sarcasm

Out of the given themes, Castle/Cathedral is likely the most open theme.

The only limitation is your imagination!

No, but really, the only limitation is that the terrain needs to be
centred around/include a castle or cathedral, save for that, you
can make whatever you want. That's not limited creativity, it's
creatively challenging. Since the theme is so very open, it's easy
to do a generic terrain, the point here is to think up something
not generic.

Obviously, I wanted "Happy" but very few others wanted it, so
out of these I voted Castle/Cathedral because I'm a sucker for
constructions.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

Human Mind graphical representation has the biggest room for creativity IMO

 

[Strydhaizer]

4 days left ...

Anyway , I think they really like the Cathedral theme , i have no choice but to make a "cathedral" terrain.

Sooo .... Tobyfat is out so i'll be joining the contest

 

[Heinvers]

Indeed. I'm not sure if I should join or not. Oh well... Cathedrals.

 

[Edge45]

well, another contest, gonna join this one, gonna plan the blueprints, if, cathedral wins

 

[MasterTrainer]

I'm going to have to go with Elements for this one... it seems the most fundamental for me since the it deals with the primary parts of a terrain; also seems the simplest. And I think if it's the simplest, everyone can put more focus on it.

 

[Celaquil]

Where's all you anarchists? We need more widespread voting!
(So I can legitimately claim there's no obvious winner and go
with Happy!)

 

[Rui]

Culween's most cunning fabrications!!! *,_,*

 

[Vinz]

Voting for Elementals.

 

[Celaquil]

Well.

Considering the culmination of Elemental and The Human Mind is nearly close to tie-ing
Castle/Cathedral I think I'm at complete liberty to say "we have no clear winner"...

On a serious note, I'll address getting this contest hosted when I've come around to
judge edge's entry for the mini-contest and when I have time for it.

PS: This will likely all go faster if one of you make a contest submission that I can
simply approve and move over to the contest part. (gloats at fladder)

 

[Heinvers]

no no no, we gotta make everything harder for you to judge

Where's the fun with making things easy for you? watching you sweat a bit does bring some joy to my heart <3

 

[Celaquil]

I don't sweat.
