It's back for its second season, boys and girls! Last year's [b]Otaku Graphica 2004[/b] was the official start of this epic competition between thrilling graphic artists. Let's hope this year tops last years big time.

Basically each round I will give the graphic artists a job to accomplish whether it's a banner or poster or whatever. They must do this in the time limit (which is lengthy as it is). The one who is the most lacking will be removed from the competition while the rest of the competitors move on. Simple.

I am looking for six graphic artists to join. If more than six join, I will select six out of those who registered. To register, simply post one of your best graphic work here. This will help decide if you're in.

Good luck, folks and may the... Photoshop programs be with you? I dunno...

[COLOR=Indigo]I would post an attachment, but most of my files are entirely too huge.

So, here is my piece: [B][URL=http://katharinad.7host.com/frodisfemmes.jpg]Frodis Femmes[/URL][/b]. I created it for a friend's website as a bit of fanart. Hope this is good enough. If you need me to, I'll attach another piece of work on here.[/COLOR]

[color=blue][size=1]I suck, but I figure I'll give it a try anyway. =P I made this for no particular reason, but I liked it (even if Stuie didn't.. <<). Oh, and sorry if it's big. I'll edit and just put in a link if need be. ^_^;

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]Sounds fun. Here's my entry. Might not be along the lines of "Digital" art but i think it looks good.

Here is my effort, the only one using real people I guess...heh. Anyone who wants to snap me out of my obsession, feel free to do so, 'cuz it's gonna make me broke...

For those who are curious, it's a mixture of two pictures. The background [the collage] is the inside of the "[B]The Who: Then and Now[/B]," cd booklet, and the foreground is off of an old calender.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Verdana]This sounded like such a fun idea but something has come up. I just figured out that i am not going to have photoshop with me during the summer. Ah well, there's always time for next year. I hope everyone enjoys this, and i wish you all good luck.

[b]SIGN UPS ARE CLOSED NOW.[/b]

Round One is simple. You will be remaking the following image:

[img]http://img292.echo.cx/img292/950/theromancer2mj.jpg[/img]

Simply redo the image, but insert a pirate ship in the ocean, do a new font for "The Romancer" (a different font for both "the" and "romancer") and make a unique shine effect to the name Romancer. I want it dark and orange like this image is already, but feel free to be unique.

NOTE: You don't have to use the same image of the ocean as I did, but it still has to be an ocean and a sunset over it.

Good luck. Your mission is due next week Wednesday.
