THE CHALLENGE

Hello artists, or should I say, time travelers! Ah, I have just returned from 1285 where I through a series of accidents and strange occurrences ended up becoming King of Scotland... I swear, I didn't mean to.
So AC, when were you yesterday? In the background of a Rembrandt? Trapped in a Monet? Wait, please tell me that wasn't you fucking a goat on that Greek vase...
Oh shit, I think I hear the chronocops outside my door and I have a tapestry to appear in, gotta go. See you later or... see you before?

TL;DR: Paint a self portrait or a painting involving yourself in an historic setting. You must paint, draw and/or chisel? your work in the style of the period you appear in. Everything from cave paintings to dadaist freak shows are go. Master studies are also allowed as long as your face is in there somewhere.

DEADLINE: Irrelevant, we're time travelers damn it. Does 845 BC sound about right though?

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:

* 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).
