So Round 1 of my latest art competition has been drawn up.
The 4th Character Battle Royale, hosted over at Outcast Studios
The Competition:
Every artist picks one character and said character stays with them for the duration of the tournament.
I chose Goku from Dragonball Z.
Each artist is then paired up against someone else and both have to draw a fictional fight between their 2 characters.
We had around 50 artists enter this time, the biggest ever in a CBR tournament!
Round 1: I was drawn up against animatrix1490 who had chosen Cucumber from Cucumber Quest, a webcomic I think.
This artist has an extremely impressive portfolio of work and this'll sure be one heck of a fight!
Just how do you make one of the most powerful warriors in the universe, capable of levelling planets and supernatural abilities, fight a little bunny rabbit?!
Well I had 6 overall ideas and sketched them all up (I'll post them all on here after the tournament probably so as not to give any ideas to other contestants any ideas :P)
Went with one and I can honestly say it's probably my most ambitious piece yet. Unfortunately I now only have 6 hours to shade and colour it though so better get a move on!
Have already had some approval though from comic book artist Stephen Downey and writer Malachy Coney who said that my lines were tight and that the piece looked like it was taken straight from a page. Great compliments, greatly appreciated and a very welcome confidence boost! Thanks guys!
I'll be hoping to progress into the second round and hopefully beat my own record and make it into the third round for the first time!
