Concept Art Contest #5 - Mythology

dead-man-walking · Nov 12, 2010

Aye. Submitted just a minute before deadline.

-Berz- · Nov 12, 2010

Lich, you forgot about few(and I think some aren't the last version)
I'm sure you forgot that epic Thor(it was half colored) and some others unfinished(WIP counts too I believe)
But good job anyways

Oh and good luck to everyone and may the best concept wins

(I have my favorite, but I won't reveal it jet)

hunalexnl · Nov 12, 2010

So it's over? Oh well... Couldn't finish mine in time.
I do not wish to enter the contest then (forget about my Horus drawing).

Yeah Berz, but those were only WiPz, and as far as I know, both a WiP and a final submission are needed for a full entry (right?).

-Berz- · Nov 12, 2010

hunalexnl, you can still submit it in Art forum

Lich, I'm not sure, in last contest(evolution) I made a quick sketch and finished 1 evolution level creature and it was included in pool and it was judged.

hunalexnl · Nov 12, 2010

Anyway, I'll upload its latest version... Just for the lulz. :vw_sleep:

Have I been confirmed as a judge? or do i need to do anything?

Deleted member 157129 · Nov 12, 2010

Whenever Pyritie comes around I'm sure you'll be confirmed as a judge.

Where's my wip? This one? Well, i was drawing Pyritie as a mystical body-builder-creature, and then I changed him to Zeus. The everyday stuff, m'kay? [URL="http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/1753434-post419.html"]And here's the "final version (Clearly still a wip, but... meh)"[/URL]

Lich Prince · Nov 12, 2010

Check much?

The WiPs have nothing to do with the entries Jaret.

Well, you still forgot my wip. I had a wip. Here it is.

Hemske · Nov 12, 2010

Jaret, the WIP-list Lich did was just for people who haven't finished their submissions. Contestants who haven't showed anything except for WIPs. So he didn't forgot it, it just wasn't supposed to be in the list.

Krl70 · Nov 12, 2010

Okay, here's my final submission, I don't think I am going to have time to improve it... Is this one better?:

Good Luck to everyone!

Zealon · Nov 12, 2010

Unfortunately Krl70, the contest has already ended. But if you're lucky, they might still let your final submission be accepted

Krl70 · Nov 12, 2010

It has? Isn't it at the end of the day? Oh... PM and AM... Right...

Zealon · Nov 12, 2010

Lol, yeah.

Pyritie · Nov 12, 2010

Anyone else interested in judging?

you're a bit late but I'll let it slide

Zealon · Nov 12, 2010

Not me, I don't have the skills for judging art.

Hazzah!

The World Is Flat · Nov 12, 2010

I do some basic art, I critiqe well, and its not that hard to find your way around art.

Tails96 · Nov 13, 2010

OK, now we should write the list of the final submissions.

The World Is Flat · Nov 13, 2010

You don't need to be especially good at art (And i'm no master, not by a friking longshot) To review it well, Critique is fairly subjective.
So I figured i'd do fine unless there are a bunch of others who want to do it too, and they were better Critics/judges/artists than I.

Well, i could if noone better signs up. I'm quite interested in drawings and have some theorethical knowledge (perspective, anatomy, lighting, that sort of things), tho the only proof that i have are a few laughable portraits... Altho i do not consider myself to have any better judging capabilities than anyone else would have

GhostThruster · Nov 14, 2010

Lol, all they guys that are good at art just joined this comp, and so can't judge.

Billy the Cat · Nov 14, 2010

Yeah I noticed it, but the pics seem missing, or am I the only one who faced this problem?

It only seems to show up for some people (me excluded), but I had seen it when he showed it in the chat.

i agree... why in the world would you be a judge?

The World Is Flat · Nov 15, 2010

Why in the world not? the contest needs a bloody judge and i can do it. you are dichotomizing my position, I am more than just a writer.

Nudl9 · Nov 15, 2010

I could sign up for judgement if none others want to take part in it.
I know alot about image composure from photographing and i have studied quite of human anatomy on my own.

Krl70 · Nov 15, 2010

So, do we get to spam Pyritie to open a poll like we did on emoticon contest while we wait for some judges to get selected, or do we have to wait for the judge conflict to solve up?

EDIT: How delightful! 400 posts! I feel like spinning in a celebratory fashion!

Lich Prince · Nov 15, 2010

Wait for some judges to be selected.

You don't have the greatest history with concept art contests. Emphasis on the concept art.

The World Is Flat · Nov 16, 2010

I didn't judge it if i remeber correctly. It was my mistake, on what i wanted to be presented as the concept, i should have been more specific, on the entry paramaters, everything else was adequate.

This i me judging a art contest, not making one, or anything else, there is little correlation between events. I am not having the argument about my fail with my own contests entry parameters again.

Py, am i judging or not?

I have the requisite knowlage of anatomy, art stlyes, whatever you need, just because i'm not great at art doesent mean i cant judge it well and provide a well documented judges opinion. hell, writing is half of the work anyway... (not really) -.- just hurry up and make a decision, people want the judging to start.

Tails96 · Nov 16, 2010

OK, men, this is madness (madness? THIS IS HIVE WORKSHOP!!!!). TWIF is not a drawer. HOWEVER he can still have a basic (or even advanced) practice in judging some pictures. Actually, I think that if a picture is really good, then anyone can tell it that it is better than the other. It depends on the style and not the talent.
Anyway, I think there will be a public poll too, am I right?

The World Is Flat · Nov 16, 2010

Yup there is.

Deolrin · Nov 16, 2010

TWIF, the only problem here is that you keep talking about pictures, art, anatomy and etcetera. Do you even know what a CONCEPT art is?

The World Is Flat · Nov 16, 2010

I never said anyhting about pictures.

This is silly.

You need a judge.
I fit the critera.
There arent that many other people who want to be a judge.
I have a fine grasp of art.
Fine theoretical understanding of art (even though i am no artist)
and am a fine critic.

We all want this to be judged, and you havent given a reason why i shouldent.

-Berz- · Nov 16, 2010

I don't understand you people...

If TWIF is being a judge, then all concepts will be rated by the same criteria, right? And what is the problem here? -There isn't any. Instead of being happy that we HAVE a judge(not like in hero contest where they are waiting for over 6 months) there are always people whining. I'm not having nothing against anybody, I'm just telling my point of view.

Grey Nightmare · Nov 16, 2010

Seems like you need a judge.
To me seems like only TWIF is volunteering.
Take TWIF or carry on waiting guys =/

One of my points.

-Berz- Also represents another of my points.

I think writing is more like 90% of the work with judging things...Basically you have to convey the successes and failures of a piece into words, and possibly write down ways in which it could be improved to offer a little constructive feedback.

As long as you don't say you simply like something, don't like something, or think something is interesting. By themselves such phrases are virtually meaningless. When fallowed by an objective description of what invoked such subjective responses they become more useful. The more objective the feedback, the better.

I don't see a focus on writing as a problem with judging.

Anyways, most of the time the poll opens when the contest is over, and the judgment results take another month to come in. So it would be nice if the poll was up...

GhostThruster · Nov 17, 2010

Let him judge, its not like anyone else will.

Pyritie · Nov 17, 2010

oh right, yes, the poll, we need that

...

where's a list of entries?

EDIT: okay ike_ike that was fast
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/1754214-post450.html

poll will be up sometime this afternoon probably

Deleted member 157129 · Nov 17, 2010

I can't say I agree that writing is half the job (I know you were joking, TWIF), even if it's part of the effort to write a review, writing a review doesn't depend on how well you can write, but how well you can express what's wrong - and that again builds on your knowledge within art, or specific fields that relate to art in such a way it can be judged (such as a medicine student, that has studied anatomy, being able to judge whether the anatomy of a human is plausible or not). In the end, though, being a poet has nothing to do with being able to review, and judge, artwork. Being an artist and/or having an education within art (and other relevant fields).

I'm not saying TWIF shouldn't judge, I'm just pointing out that he's not perfect for the job (and not proven to be qualified). I don't mind if TWIF judges, but if there are better options, I prefer those.

Tails96 · Nov 17, 2010

Wow, pretty nice entries. And quite a lot. Congrats everyone. Good luck. :thumbs_up:

Will there be only 1 judge?

The World Is Flat · Nov 17, 2010

Well yes, My skill hasnt been proven but i am the only one who volunteered and I do belive I myself have the requisite knowlage and ability to express whats 'up' with a piece of art.

I'm just trying to help, if Pyra and other skilled artists come up and want to judge, hell take them.
