Treasure vault entry

J'ai enfin réussi à poster mon dessin! Je ne savais pas que je devais valider d'abord mon compte pour poster sur les forums et le wiki. Je me demandais pourquoi je ne voyais pas le bouton upload file XD. Maintenant ça va mieux :D Mon entrée: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/File:Concours_SK_finale.jpg

I finally managed to post my drawing! I did not know that I should first validate my account to post on forums and the wiki. I wondered why I couldn't see the ''upload file'' button XD. Now it's ok :D My entry: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/File:Concours_SK_finale.jpg

Thanks. I sort of wish we had a "perpetual graffiti" thing for spiral knights. Spend 1CE perhaps, and you can put graffiti in designated areas in the clockwork terminals or certain areas in the clockworks themselves that last for like 50 reads by different people. Then you could feel like a badass when someone spots you and asks "are you the knight that proclaimed that his lance was mightier and longer than all others?"
but im rambling.

WOW IT'S "ARTEFACT" HUNTER SHEPS
(too bad only closed beta people will get it.... maybe.)
Yeah, I drew a thing. I didn't intend on entering in the contest and was gonna simply be just a doodle... but I wound up finishing it and thought "...Eh, looks good enough, so why not?"
So here's my entry, "LUV Scripting".
My in game name is Shepsmeister if you wanna gush over my entry in game, or something.
...I also have a deviantArt, but I guess you can bother me about my dA name in the game.

My Entry
I finally managed to finish my entry... what a relief.
http://wiki.spiralknights.com/File:Mecha_Knight_Drawing.png
I'm not the best artist out there, nor do I really expect to win, but I decided to do it anyway for the heck of it.
I just wanted to provide some fan art of the Mecha Knight that we get from the kits. Sure they may be inefficient and somewhat stupid, but at least they always try their hardest to fight for us. Plus, you gotta feel kinda sorry for em; their heads blow up when they fall in battle and everything.
I just hope I uploaded the file to the wiki correctly.

ORDER IN THE COURTROOM. DON'T MAKE ME COME DOWN THERE.
I am also hosting a competition of sorts to help judge entries.
There will be prizes given out, so if you didn't enter the art contest, give it a shot.
I'd like all discussion relating to the Art Contest to remain in this thread, the other thread is just for judging.

I don't want to sound rude or
I don't want to sound rude or anything, but I think involving a huge mass of random people in judging an art contest so big is... the worst idea possible. Unless you want it to be unfair and.. badly judged, for lack of a better word.
Yeah it's nice to get the community involved and stuff but the majority knows almost nothing reagarding art. If it was a small, little contest with few entries, and not so many amazing ones, then it would be ok. But to determine good and fair winners in this situation, sorry but you need people that are actually into art and know how to appreciate it. Or just do it yourself alone since you're the organizer.
This really really got on my nerves. There are some people who really deserve to win, and guess what? Some of them didn't get mentioned ONCE. As I said, not even half of the people who vote know something about art.

@TersakoffI understand your
@Tersakoff
I understand your frustrations, but let me try to answer your fears.
I don't mind that Shoebox has people judging work. First off, that is how it goes in the real world. Even if you apply for a job as an artist at a videogame company, they aren't going to say, "Wow I like that!" based on just their own opinion and hire you. Chances are they will take in to account the audience they need an artist for, or what they need the art to do for their 3D modelers/sprite artists or whatever to do their job effectively. To that extent, Picasso's cubism was ground breaking for its time, but I'd never in a million years hire him for concept work over it.
But you bring up the judging being fair. Fair is not a word you can really throw around for art. It's such a subjective media that just because one person hates a masterpiece and likes a doodle, it doesn't necessarily degrade or elevate either. I'd say if there were to be a fair or unfair situation, you'd have it reversed. Getting as large a consensus as possible as to what drawings are favorable would be preferable than letting one person judge from a throne. However in case you didn't read his other post, Shoebox did say the decision is ultimately his. There's really no need to raise a fuss.
I feel what really has all this heated, and I kind of felt it coming, was that there is a prize at stake on the internet. You'll notice that up until this point, not one person complained. As soon as it's time to begin giving out CE however, suddenly there are "fair" and "unfair" designs at work. I will make my feelings clear and say that if you entered this contest (I don't know if you did, Tersakoff, I'm just speaking generally) solely for the purpose of getting CE, then you're doing it wrong.
This was meant to be fun for both the community and especially the artist. I certainly didn't enter just because I want CE. I entered because I wanted to get peoples reactions and push myself to be a better artist in the process. I typically don't aim to work off the vision of someone else, so doing fan art was also a change in gears for me. A CE prize would certainly be nice and indeed make life easier for me as far as Spiral Knights goes, but the real pay off here for me is that I either inspired, gave someone something they enjoy looking at, or that I will hopefully get some critique on how to improve.
td;dr I understand your frustrations as a person. As an artist, however, I can't get behind them.

@ValkierA contest in a game
@Valkier
A contest in a game for prizes in the game not money or a job, offered by a single individual, and getting hired for a job in art have little to no similarity.
True, but still, your piece and some that have been chosen as major prizes just.. just can't be compared. IT'S OBVIOUS YOURS IS WAY BETTER. When something WAY worse is chosen over something obviously amazing it's just... jesus christ. Un-fair. BT
I didn't really understand that, but the reason why this annoys me is that it's simply unfair. I don't care about the prize, I want the right ones to win, those that deserve it. Now I wish I wouldn't have entered so I could judge too. Even if I would be just one.
Yes, but as I said a million times, it's upsetting when the judging is.. simply bad. Shoebox should've judged it alone, to put it shortly. But still, his contest, his choices. And my opinion.
On a completely unrelated note, do you have a deviantart account? I'm really interested in seeing more of your art.

Taken from the thread you're complaining about:
There's also no guarantee that just because an entry is popular, that it will win a prize.
I will be taking your opinions into consideration, but the final decision is still mine.
So do your best to persuade me into liking your favourite entries.

I'd want to congratulate whoever wins, but, seeing that I'll be away from a computer for the next two weeks, I doubt I can do it in a timely manner. Instead, they'll just have to accept this form-letter congratulations. Just fill in the blanks!
[insertnamehere], congratulations on winning [insertcategoryhere]! Your artwork was really [amazing/cute/funny/"avante garde"]. Hope you enjoy the prize!
But seriously, there are some pretty dang good artists in here. Y'all should be proud.

Hey Shoebox, do you have an eta on when the results will be announced?
No rush or anything, I just keep finding myself checking the forums 20 times a day, and I need to stop :P.
Well done to everyone who entered, and congratulations especially to the ones that won. There are some brilliant artists in this community!
Thanks also for Doovad for nominating my Spiral Guitarist, I'm glad someone liked my work.
