NEW AC CHALLENGE RULE: Winner of the previous challenge picks the winner of the next challenge.

Driver and Vehicle- Design a character and the vehicle they would drive. Wacky Racers http://images.nitrobahn.com/cgi-bin/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/wacky-racers.jpg are a good example but this challenge is not limited to racing or cars. Any type of character and vehicle is good to go :)

example not an entry- Duck and an Orbital frame

For those of you who frequent the conceptart.org forums this should be pretty familiar; tens of artistic combatants thrown together in to an artistic arena, each struggling for the honor of being dubbed a master of the visual arts. Those of you who succeed will be bathed in glory and the blood of their competitors, those of you who fail will be exiled to a life of shame and isolation.

The aim of this thread is to try and spice things up a bit here in the ol' Artist's Corner. This thread is for entries in to the challenge or the discussion thereof. If you'd like to suggest a topic for the weekly challenge, go right ahead, but understand that the last winner of the challenge has total control over the task (unless they have won more than two challenges in a row, see rules).

The rules are simple;

RULES:

* One entry per person, per challenge.
* A contestant cannot win more than two challenges in a row.
* Winner gets the privilege of choosing the next challenge.
* Winner also gets the honor of picking the winner of the next challenge.
* At the end of a challenge, the thread is locked and a new one is begun.
* Stick to the challenge topic; no going off on a tangent.
* All formats welcome, whether they be traditional or digital; 2D or 3D; still or animated.


If you're looking for inspiration, check out the aforementioned conceptart.org forums (specifically the creature/environment/character of the week sections).

    This is a good challenge, and one I might consider participating in at some stage.....if I have time......which I probably won't.

    I always say I will participate and then fold, but this is the first time I actually arrive when the topic is fresh!

    I need to buy pens and make this less rough.

  • FANTOMASFANTOMAS Flan ArgentavisRegistered User regular
    if it was a falic pictures contest, this would be the winner, even without looking further entries.... I feel like quoting a phrase from an austin powers movie... but that would be overkill I think :D

    Hmm. Concept sounds fun. Just need to do a little casting to figure out what sounds like a great idea.

    Dont listen to Ninjai, he wants to sabotage you. The last contest, despite not being a very popular one lasted around 2 months I belive, so basically I would have to say from 1 to 2 months, or untill someone gets bored or frustrated.

    If I'm not mistaken there was one last year that lasted 4-5 months... Seriously, there's not really a limit.

  • m3nacem3nace Registered User regular
    There is indeed a limit and ways to determine when and where it is. However as far as I'm involved it has something to do with baby corpses and the stars aligning.

    Nib Crom, THAT is how Aliens should have been from the start, I mean, why ditch a perfectly good body just because it has some scratches on the thorax.

    My drawing is actually based on the plot of Prometheus. *wink*

  • NicNic Registered User regular
    This just in, the video game tie in for Prometheus is going to be a rehash of Star Wars Episode 1 Racer but with xenobabies driving human husks on wheels.

    @Stplmstr
    I guess it's time to pick the wiener winner.

  • m3nacem3nace Registered User regular
    So... uhhh, staplemaster hasn't been active since april... can we have a mod make a poll instead then?

  • StplmstrStplmstr Registered User regular
    Heyo, sorry I have been around periodically but not signed in :S I am giving it to the Fly Marquis. They were all great idea but I liked the feel off of the design of the character and vehicle shown in the splash action shot in that one :)

  • m3nacem3nace Registered User regular
    It took me a while to process that there wasn't an entrant/user called Fly Marquis -_-'
    You know, I always have several ideas for the next contest but now that I've won, I forgot all of them... I'll be back in a few years when I've remembered them...
