Monthly Art Contest Megathread CLOSED

[SoIheardyoulikeSENTRET]

Ok I'm back with Magcargo. It's really sloppy still (WIP I think). I'm expiramenting with new style so blah. I started thinking and decided Magcargo seemed more like a lava-hermitcrab than a snail in my mind so that's what I drew.

 

[DjGopher]

Oh my god..
I give up
That is extraordinary.

 

[Furosuto]

Something tells me that shinxe is gonna pummel us to a pulp with this contest..... Anybody agree? Also, do you get extra points for using digital art instead of sketching/shading.....Like I did?

 

[Chou Toshio]

master win; we're not using judging from now on-- this is purely based on votes from Smeargle Studio viewers. To put it bluntly, whoever has the best looking piece, will win; regardless of method.

 

[Sæglópur]

Really good Emolga Froslad, it looks especially realistic, can't wait to see the finished one. And Sentret that is insane (in a good way), haha ;)

 

[Ivysaur]

hey sup

raaawwwr

woke up mega early today for an appointment, so I decided to finish this (:

@Oglemi I had the same problem when I was drawing it hahah ):

I dunno man, I couldn't make that leg work, no matter what I did. Consider it a shortcut that I didn't draw it? heh

 

[Oglemi]

Sentret = too good, not only does it look neat, but d'awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Ivysaur I love the claws and coloring you did, but I feel like the front-right leg is missing, even if it is supposed to be hiding :x

I think you really captured the essence of what Magcargo should look like in real life.... Anatomically correct, yet still looking like magcargo. I'm voting for you dude.

 

[Froslad]

After seeing Sentret's magcargo i dont wanna finish my emolga ;-;

 

[bombiron]

i think my hypno is done.

 

[DjGopher]

lol Bombiron that is excellent XD

So this is part of a wip, let me know what you guys think..

bit of a new style so forgive me if it's kind of awful.
Hoping to get a fineon and maybe some others on the line as well

 

[bombiron]

thank you loads dj. your peice reminds me of erik carl

 

[Tortferngatr]

At first I wondered what the joke was.

Then I saw it was Hypno.

Make it look more like a Hypno if you want a chance to defeat Magcargo.

 

[DjGopher]

Don't be talking down to hypno, that thing is boss
Bombiron: the hungry hungry caterpillar guy? :D

 

[SoIheardyoulikeSENTRET]

Dude, Bombiron, I love that. I instantly knew it was hypno by the yellow skin and the way it was holding the lolipop. Total bossage!

Ok here's the complete version of magcargo. I fixed the shell and overall just tidied the picture up.

If you want to see what I changed then open these two links in new tabs and swap between the tabs.

...Why that (epic) Magcargo got legs...?

 

[Sæglópur]

read his first post! XD

I love that drowzee, never would have thought of him that way, haha.
and dj I love the way you colored the magikarp, definitely lookin' good :)

 

[elcheeso]

...Why that (epic) Magcargo got legs...?

Probably has something to do with the fact that this weeks challenge is to make a pokemon look more realistic (whether it's by photorealism or just making them look closer to the animals/things they were based on isn't really defined, but the latter is more likely)... so Sentret made magcargo look more like a hermit crab with adorable claws. Adding or removing bits and pieces to make the 'mons look like real animals is pretty much a given, imo.

Edit: Since I'm here, I may as well post one half of my (still very much in progress) entry. Go go gadget woobat! I wanted to make the nostrils heart-like while still being vaguely realistic, tell me how you guys think it turned out.

 

[bombiron]

work on that a bit more and you got a winner boyo. and dj yes the hungry hungry cpillar. magcargo turned out boss, im thinking of putting hypnos name and dex # on there either to the right or above him yay/nay?

 

[DjGopher]

Unnecessary I think'

 

[Alchemator]

Deadline will be on the 1st September!

 

[elcheeso]

Alright, it might be possible I'll end up adding more shit to my entry, but I'm posting it as a final just in case I don't bother.

 

[macle]

got lazy

 

[Froslad]

I think this is my final entry ;~;
