Can I participate

Ok

[frank tinsel]

How is art really judged? I mean like do a few judges judge them or are there more details to keep in mind

Like creativity, design, etc

[stable shuttle]

Pasted from the previous Q&A thread:

Criteria we judge on are:

• how well your art reflects the prompt you are given;
• general understanding of art in the medium you are working in (proportions, rendering, line of action, color theory);
• stylization and how filled in the artwork feels;
• how creative you are with the execution of the prompt while still managing to keep it prompt related.

[frank tinsel]

Thank youu

[eager hearth]

How do you participate?

[stable shuttle]

You create underwater themed art and post it in #🔵・submissions !

[torn bone]

Does the setting have to be underwater or can it just have water in it😐

[torn bone]

How many submissions do we get

[vital sand]

can we post 3d and 2d art mix?

[vital sand]

can i post 3d and 2d art mix??

[stable shuttle]

Has to be underwater, that's literally the only limit of the event prompt

[stable shuttle]

One per person!

[stable shuttle]

Absolutely

[trail mauve]

can we create an artwork thats fanwork of a game/show for the ocean event?

also can it be multiple pages

[stable shuttle]

Single page, single artwork for the competition, can be fanart

The only limitation on the type of art it can be is underwater

[pure meadow]

So only under water, not above water swimming right?

That’s a stupid question

[stable shuttle]

Only under water, yes

[pure meadow]

Are we allowed to ask for feedback before submitting?

[stable shuttle]

Yes, #978708583090892830

[pure meadow]

Ok thx

[desert ivy]

Can we do anime art as long as we don't steal

Like original one piece art work as long as it's underwater themed

[stable shuttle]

Of course, as long as you are following the server rules^^

[desert ivy]

What about SpongeBob

[stable shuttle]

Fanart is allowed, as long as it's not traced or heavily referenced.

[desert ivy]

I did SpongeBob and Squidwards homes, I used references for Squidwards home

And I don't have PayPal, but I do have cash app

[stable shuttle]

If you don't have PayPal, then a Discord Nitro equivalent will be sent to you

[neat pelican]

can we use sea pic's as refers

[stable shuttle]

Of course!

[eager hearth]

Can we send multiple images as one submission?

[stable shuttle]

One entry means one piece - one post - one artwork

[orchid dagger]

is it possible to post a artwork that was posted in another channel before? - so premade

[stable shuttle]

No, it needs to be original art made for this competition

[calm kiln]

Is animation allowed?

[stable shuttle]

Yes

[soft kraken]

is it okay to post your submission in the other art channels, or is that considered reposting?

[stable shuttle]

No reposting^^

[pure meadow]

Is there a limit for the size of the piece?

[frigid charm]

Hey so after the competition is over and announces its winners, are we free to upload our work anywhere else?

[stable shuttle]

You're free to do it right now too, since the winner is not based on the amount of likes

[frigid charm]

Thanks!

[stable shuttle]

Preferably smaller than 100MB

[fallow lava]

This sounds stupid but would a piece like this count or no

This isn’t my submission, just an example

[stable shuttle]

Hey, no it wouldn't count

The only limitation is that whatever you have to draw has to be under water

Doing anything less than that would literally be just draw whatever

It really does have to be underwater, I hope that's understandable

[fallow lava]

Yes LMAO ur good just wanted to see if I could get away w like half underwater

[fallow lava]

Have a good night 💞

[stable shuttle]

You too!

[slate warren]

Hiya! are we allowed to use an online pic for inspiration/reference for the submission piece? ^^

[stable shuttle]

Yes as long as you don't trace it or really heavily reference. Just inspiration is okay

[slate warren]

Oki, thanks! Is colorpicking considered heavily reference?

[stable shuttle]

As long as you're not colopicking and doing the exact same scene

Just color picking is okay

[slate warren]

Okay, thanks!! ^^
