Title of event: Spiral Knights Anniversary Art Contest ( Over 190k Ce In Prizes)
Njpaloozart Fair :P
This will be one of the biggest art contests for Spiral Knights. It will focus on drawings, sculptures, and any other type of art - excluding Fan-fics, poems, and any other textual art. I personally hope many players take advantage of this event and will create a lot of amazing art for Spiral Knights.
Why?:
When:
Media:
All of the artwork submitted will be blogged on Bechamel's Gossip
(The Official Echo of Silence Blog)
Link: http://bechamelsgossip.tumblr.com
Feel free to follow us on tumblr, and like any of the submissions <69.
Prizes:
Each category will have the same prizes awarded:
Consolation Prize --- Anyone that enters will receive a barrel belly or 69 Ce!!
Rules:
Judges:
As of right now this contest will only have Two Judges: myself (Njthug) and Digicom. Many of you guys may not know Digi. Since I feel it is unfair to well have only myself judge this contest, and many of the other players in this game who I can work well with are sadly in Eos. I had to try out the next best option a great friend who I trust, and can get along with very well. Oh and importantly someone who is destined to be in Echo of Silence one day.
About Digi --- He is a great guy he plays Spiral Knights for fun many of you might have seen him around with very expensive armor sets. He plays more in the Spanish Servers, and is the founder of a guild called Solo Art. He created a very nice guild hall with his own bare hands, and well honestly this guy is as honest as they come.
We are still looking for more judges, and currently the two others we are eyeing are:
Certain art pieces might be judged by the community as a whole without you knowing it so in a sense players will be picking a few winners.
How to Submit Your Art:
Post in this thread with the following format:
Questions you may have:
Will your guild members be submitting art work?
Why are you letting your guild members submit artwork?
I want this contest to allow everyone to have fun and be competitive as well. I do not know if the members from Eos will be participating, but I do hope they do since we have a lot of talented artists such as Cobalt, Waffle, Yukaberry, and Mustacheman (2manytoname)!
What type of artwork can I submit?
Will there be a seperate category in terms of judging to seperate drawings (like drawings drawn on comp., drawings without color, etc.)?
Just wondering since I can't color xD

@Terra -- We will not separate the different styles of art work per category, but I can inform you that Digi and myself will be making sure not only digital art wins it all since honestly we seen A LOT of amazing hand-crafted/hand-drawn submissions. Coloring is not a must we have many candidates who did not color their art work, and some of them from the looks of it might place in a category!
Going to post my entry soon! =D

Stats? Bonuses?
Honestly, I don't know... I just ended up doodling and it became like this D:
Hood:
- elemental + normal defense
- med charge time reduction
- negative stats against fire and ice
- bonus stats against shock and stun
Jacket/Coat:
- pierce + normal defense
- med attack speed increase
- negative stats against fire and ice

*I really don't know if these are good stats.... I'm just guessing :x

@Njthug :
I have a question. Can I draw a picture by myself, and then let someone color and edit it through PC programs for me? Or is it against the rules?
Example :
Dragneel draws ( Painting 2 )
Dragneel gives ( Painting 2 ) to Njthug to edit it.
Njthug edits ( Painting 2 ) with Photoshop - GIMP etc..
Njthug or Dragneel posts the ( Painting 2 ) here.
To whom the credits go for? For Dragneel or Njthug? or Both of them?

Wow the last entries have all been amazing I can now officially admit we have a competition going!! Thank you for your entries so far guys and keep it up!
@Dragneel --- That is allowed, but you must give the proper credit and they have to understand whoever does win the player who wrote down their ign will be receiving the prize. If you do not mind if you can post your work then the final version as well since that will help us out a bit in judging =).

EDIT 1: Guess what?? I learnt how to do some techniques in G.I.M.P!! Cheers~~!!!
EDIT 2: So, this is MY work only, and no one helped with it.
Hope you like it. Actually, this is my first time trying to draw in Digital Programs, so I guess it is a horrible fail, but meh... I am gonna post it! It took me between 7-9 hours, forgot how much actually... But I loved doing so, because each second, I was learning another thing, it was enjoyable! Thanks a lot Njthug for making me try these programs for once, all love and wishes! <3
Note: This is my first time doing an artwork for Spiral Knights, so laughs and gags are allowed, but don't crush me, I am sensitive. ._.

I thought...since devilites and jellies never interact in the clockworks, i'm sure they must find them exotic creatures which are...rather delectable and sweet....LIKE TURKISH DELIGHTS! lol
hope no one is disturbed by this image lol
so yes, when we are not around in the clockworks, devilites sneak to other levels, kidnap jelly minis and eat them! MWAHAHA
maybe it's why jellies do piercing damage and fiends are weak to piercing :x
Comment #224 has been edited with the final work!
Any thoughts or suggestions on it guys? :E

Soo.... That's what I think they look like.
Eulcid is a higher rank this is allowed to dual wield swords of his choice, this is similar to the position that Vaelyn holds.
(I had to hop into an alt to be able to post. Silly validation thing.)
Sigh...
After I saw Snowdusk and Fighting-Polygon submissions, I guess my chances are now zero...
Well I tried at least!
Note: Good luck to all of you! All love and respect to all these awesome artists. And never forget to keep your spirit up!
