Paperdoll Competition

(1/24) > >>

Bryan:
Alright, most of what is going to be shown has not been seen by the community and some staff. There are a lot of things and developments in the art department, that will be released in small segments. The purpose of this competition is to lower my work load and get the community more involved. I think this should be in announcements, but I'll let the big guys figure that out. Now let me get to it.

I'm going to release the male sprite in this thread, and allow the community to paperdoll them. There are 12 positions, at the moment, that need to be paperdolled. The rules are simple, as followed:

- You will only be allowed one entry. You may substitute an old entry for a new one.

- You may use any palette, but it will be judged on how well it blends, creativity, and uniqueness.

- Try to stick to 3-4 shades of one color. You can use as many colors you want.

- You will have two weeks to create a fully paperdolled male sprite. Then a community poll will began. The top three entries at the end of the one week poll, will then be sent to the staff to make the final decision, and the winner "could possibly" have a position in the art department as a Paperdoll Artist.

If you have any questions, then post here or send me a PM.

Yume Tsuki:
Seems pretty awesome in my opinion.
They will add their own ideas for appearence and give inspiration for clothes/accessories/etc. :)
I'll give it a try.

Arctus:
Nice idea getting the community involved. I  might also try it, but once i fail at what I'm planning, that's when i'm gonna re-realise how much i fail at art ;D

Jerry:
Paper doll artist as in creating the different layers to fit on the sprite?

Anyway, for the contest itself, does that mean that contestants will have to post the 'accessory' layer separately? Or maybe it'd be best to have one picture of the 'accessories' on the sprite, and one picture of the accessories alone?

Mr_Dark:
Great idea. I hope our community comes up with some unique and awesome ideas.

I've added a link in the start post which will show you out of which different parts our characters exists.
