Comparing Simon and Helm makes sense.
Although I do not know Helm much,he has an eye for quality.

It'll be moved when it's certain that it is working out, though I'm pretty sure it will. So no worries, it'll all be in order.

Wow Souly, that last one just did it for me. I wasn't overly pleased with your other ones, there was something odd or lacking about them. This last one has some great volume and AAing. Is he wearing a hoodie too?

There we go.
All the spots are filled now.

Now I just have to randomize the order for the first duels, and then its all done.
The challenge has already been determined and will be posted tomorrow.

I will try to post each challenge on my Sunday night (GMT-7). That should mean that it is Monday sometime for some of you.

Im looking forward to seeing how this turns out, and the entries that are submitted.

Let's do double elimination!

Snake, draw up a loser's bracket.

as i said, this whole set is my trial version. to see what works and what doesnt.
i dont want to take on too much just yet, when its still in the midst of being worked out for the first time.
that could be something though we can look into later.
right now, there will be just the 5 rounds.

seeing as how this bracketed chart is working out nicely and alot of people have made their own battle icons, Ill leave it as it is. If you do not have a battle icon, I will just use the first 1 or 2 letters of your name for your icon, unless you send me something to replace it.

Yeah well, if there were a loser's bracket, it could run concurrent to the regular bracket. Same theme or whatever, same deadline, but compeeting amongst the losers. Also allows a comeback if two good artists go at it first or second round. Winner of the loser's bracket has to beat winner of regular bracket twice. Winner of regular bracket only needs one win. That's usually the way we run things at fighting game tournaments in Dallas, and it's generally regarded as the fairest way to do things. But yeah, twas just a suggestion.

Oh and, make it one week per round. Need a little pressure to keep things interesting/moving along.

Actually, I'd keep my vote for 2 weeks. I think we could keep alot of disqualifications out that way, and have people come up with higher grades of artistic pieces.

In a similar thing I participated in some time ago you had one week to finish your piece and send it to the organizer, and he made a thread for every pair with a poll for everyone to vote, which was open for one week. I think this week was really important to rest your mind a little, and to get a clear head again. And I guess in our case here the judges won't mind some time to write their commentary as well.

Anyway, one thing that's definitely missing in the chart is the third place (though I suppose we will have some sort of an extra podium image for the winners). Usually the two who drop out in the semi-final fight for third place during the final round. In this thing I took part in they even gave the finalists an extra week, so the third rank battle did not coincide with the final round.

The new computer has arrived and I fanally got it up and running. No internet yet, but that'll be taken care of tomorrow. Ready for battle.  :y:

Great to see people taking the time to do their portraits. Getting a nice collection here. Again, there was bound to be some misspellings on the names, so just change them yourself when you update.
