Alright Ladies and Gents, time for the second art competition! This one will be a little, a lot, different than the previous one.

Unlike the last competition that was based on artistic talent and design, this one is almost the exact opposite. Many people out there have a very basic paint program, whether it was bundle with your Operating System or otherwise. And for those of you who don't and only have something a little more advanced, you are welcome too.

The competition is simple: Recreate a copy of an existing card in MS Paint (or whatever art program you have), not the entire card, just the art part of it, no card border, no text, no ability info, just the art. There is a second part to this: You only have 5 minutes max to do it. (For those of you with more advanced art programs, you are not allowed to use any advanced tool. Circular, square, and line brushes and pencils only 100% hardness; circle, square, rounded rectangle shape tools only; eraser; paint bucket tool; line tool. In other words, I discourage everyone from using a more advanced painting program.)

Also, you are not allowed to use a tablet of any kind. Only your mouse.

5 minutes?! Surely you think I can't be serious. Oh but I am. I know none of us will have a true way to make sure that you stick to those time constraints so this will be based on the honor system. If you can not be honest in your art submission, why even bother?

This competition isn't about who can recreate a card the best, this is about fun. Masterpieces are not what this competition is about. You do not need any talent whatsoever to participate.

The winner will receive an amazing-tastic award icon!

The Competition will run for 7 days.





Rules:

1. Recreate an existing card's art using a very basic paint program(or very basic tools in a more advanced program.)
2. All art submitted to that competition has to A) have been made with MSPaint or B) has to LOOK like they were made with MS paint. If it looks "advanced", it will be disqualified.
3. This is not a reworking card art competition. You are to use the art on the card as your reference to simply copy it using a basic art program.
4. All submission must have been done within the 5 minute max time frame.
5. This is not about the absolute best art, this is about having fun.
6. Don't reveal what your card is. It's more fun that way :D
7. 1 Entry per person.


EDIT: Please everyone, don't submit the thumbnail version of your drawing. Use the link to the full scale drawing. It's easier on me and everyone else.

BEHOLD!



I decided to take a more abstract approach, trying to really capture the essence of my card, and not so much the form. Whimsical, yet serious. Ferocious, yet approachable.
