Guest Chris Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 [color=#707875][b]well, i'm tired of getting asked if some one can join the oae, so i just desided to put up this contest to see who will get in. this time, there will be only two winners: one from gfx, and one from drawing. ccging is not included in either catagory, so if your a ccger and you want in, too bad. just post three entries and at the end, i will let anyone who wants to vote, chose the one who they think is best. you may enter both catagories, and if you win both, you will be the only one let in. anyone can enter, except people already in. it's 6:26 am and i still havent gone to sleep, so if this post is poor quality, please excuse that. now, if less than ten people enter one catagory, no one wins there and no one gets in. i will end this competition when people seem to stop posting entries, and then let people vote. do not vote until then. if you have any questions post them here. good luck to you all.[/b][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarK DeatH Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 What about adding this rule "Drawings WITH CG won't be accepted"? I mean, sometimes the CGing is what makes a drawing, so that may have influence in the end. Only the raw drawing. ::edit:: Also, let's not fill this thread with junk, so it will be easier for the judges to actually see all the works without having to go through a loot of junk posts. BTW, who are gonna be the judges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braidless Baka Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 Okay... I guess I'm going for the "drawing" catergory...

WW2 Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Well I don't see my name on the list, so I guess I'll enter the contest. I haven't scanned any of my new drawings yet, so it may take some time. But don't worry friends, the pics shall come soon. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transtic Nerve Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 I'm so glad people are putting in hand drawn art instead of completely digital bull crap. Artists period, especially artist elites should know all range of art, should know how to use many mediums and should be able to adequately critique and review art in any medium and style. Something tells me alot of these elites arent elite at all, but thats just my opinion. Not to mention art have no range of good to bad. It's all art, it's all interpreted art. Meaning it's all how YOU as a viewer sees it. Which could be drastically different from the guy standing next to you or the old woman stuck in the cellar. Art can never be bad, just as it can never be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I don't like is that CGers aren't allowed to participate to get into the 'elite' artists?

One medium of work doesn't make you an artist elite. It makes you good in one specific medium, which is hardly what I'd call elite. This is precisely why Michelangelo and Leonardo are considered one of the greatest artists. The excelled at painting, drawing, sculpting, ideology, and they knew how to critique another work of art in a way that could not only help the artist in the future, but help themselves int heir own work.

eleanor Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 [size=1] I'm agreeing with Transtic Nerve. I beleive most of the people in the OAE have been entered because of their digital work, though some of the people who have been accepted throught that are actually extremely good at it. Different people view things differently... :P I know I'm definately [i]not[/i] elite, and neither are most people in the club. I suck at graphics and realistic drawing, the only things I can make are simple banners.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Meh. Yeah. I guess you wouldn't be "elite" if you can't do everything. Maybe this team should have sections. [b]The Drawers[/b] and [b]The Graphicers[/b]. Just a thought. Anyways, yeah... I can do graphics... not the best in the world, though :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyGirl Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 [color=deeppink]TO further partonize this topic: Photography? Nobody seems to consider that a very relevant topic around here. People [i]do[/i] need to branch out...[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WW2 Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Ok I guess I'll post the first of my entries. This is a pic I managed to finish over the weekend. Sorry if its a little messy. Note: More pics will follow :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaola Su Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Oh no, I hope since I can only do banners that I still might be able to get in. I suppose I MIGHT enter one hand draw picture that I have but I made it look a lot better by erasing the extra scratches on the paper but I swear I drew it, it is even back in a thread of mine a while back. Well, here is my second entry [img]http://kaolasu.250free.com/ReiEvangelionBanner.gif[/img] Love, Kaola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomad Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 [FONT=arial][size=3][COLOR=darkblue]I can draw. Just not as well as others can. And I can make banners (duh). I do both. Maybe we should have like sections or something of the sort. Photography should be included, but it's Chris' decision. Just commenting. Later[/COLOR][/size][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, here is my second entry Love, Kaola [/B][/QUOTE] Your signature is INSANELY huge.... Would you be most kind and lessen it.... about... 75%.... it's just far to big. Your signature should be no bigger than the posts you make. Anyway... about seperating it... it's too much work... to seperate the elites of "painting, drawing, graphics... cause then you'll have to seperate it more.... charcoal, greytone, earthtone, pencil, ink pen, ink wash, color pencil, acrylic paint, oil paint, fresco (if someone is talented enough to do such a thing) etc etc etc.... there's just so much. I think if you're going to call yourself artist elites, at least have some idea of what an artist with 'elite' skills is... cause I would never, personally, consider someone who primarily does graphics art and nothing else an elite artist. He may be excellerated in the graphic arts, but no where near the capability of someone who is elite in the artistic ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mina Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 I prolly have no chance, but here are my entries. 1) [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=436882]Dragon's Evening (Drawing)[/url] 2) [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=430865]Sekhmet (Drawing)[/url] 3) [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=455496]Eclipse[/url] All are drawings.(duh) Only the first is colored.

Guest Chris Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 [color=#707875][b]*sigh* i was going to do sections, but i never got around to it. and when i say elite, i mean very good in one section -.- i didn't want ccging in because i only know of three or four people on otaku who ccg, therefor there isn't much to comare to. same for photography. now, i've changed the voting proceedger, and now the voteing will be done over pms throung some of the oae members. i will post up the winner at the end. if you want to enter both sections (gfx and hand drawn) feel free to. it never hurts to try. p.s. to stop any futher comment on how the oae members arn't really elite, the club will now be the cfawaegiomoaaanqe (club for artists who are exceptionaly good in one medium of art and are not quite elite)[/b][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WW2 Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 The cfawaegiomoaaanqe? Ok then, whatever.:D Well here's my second entry into the contest. It was a character I created for an RPG in the Adventure Forum of OB. Too bad it was a failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transtic Nerve Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 I don't want you to change your name of the group, I would like for you to base who gets in off of several works of different medium. If all they can do is graphic arts then I really don't think that shows 'elite-ness' in the visual arts.... while i think they are good at graphic, I think they should at least submit ONE other piece of work from another meidum in order to be considered. Thats just my opinion, but it's your group. You can call it whatever the hell you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
