What's new for this year?:

MOAR PRIZES!! Yes folks we are giving out more prizes than last year since let's be honest 190k+ ce was a bit low. A lot of new categorizes, and certain categories will be worth a bit more! Oh Digicom also told me he has a few surprises in store for us!

    1st Place: 10,069 Ce
    2nd Place: 9,069 Ce
    3rd Place: 8,069 Ce

Consolation Prize --- Anyone who enters a valid entry will receive 69 ce!

Rules:

    1. Do not steal any ones art and submit it as your own.
    2. All art entered must be new art (no resubmitting your past work).
    3. No criticism that will make someone cry and go suicidal. Keep it constructive.
    4. You can enter THREE pieces of work per category.
    5. You are allowed to submit to all categories. Although each category must have its own unique work(s).

    6. Do not annoy Digicom or myself as this will most likely get us annoyed. Keep in mind we are judging <69
    7. You can edit your art, but if it clearly copies someone's idea or is edited after judging it will not be counted. *So edit it before the deadline <69*
    8. Make sure you follow the rules listed for the category you're submitting it for.
    9. No porn or rule34 of any kind.


Judges:

All judging will be done by myself and Digicom! We may have a special guest judge, but we will see what happens.

About the both of us:

Digicom and Njthug meet very randomly! Nj was in need of some cash and he saw a sexy Digicom, and asked him if he was looking to buy a few items, but it ended up this business deal was the start of a great friendship! Digicom and Njthug pretty much realized that we are both pretty crazy, and well crazy people belong together. After months n months of persuasion Digi joined Njthug in Eos where they live happily ever after with their wives Misobutt n Taters!

The End!

We are still looking for more judges, and currently the two others we are eyeing are:

    1. Taylor Swift
    2. Miley Cyrus

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?

      Yes we are allowing Eos members to participate in this contest even though Digi and myself are both in Eos we want to keep this contest open to everyone! That means Nick, Ian, Helios, and the mighty Cronus can submit art!

    Why are you guys letting your guild members submit artwork?

      Since Eos is dead we figure no one will really submit art work from Eos!

    What type of artwork can I submit?

      Anything! It can be handmade artwork, macaroni drawings, a marble statue, a simple drawing on ms paint, or whatever else floats your boat. *Remember certain categorizes this year may ask for specific style of art work*

Side-Note:

If you change your in-game name make sure to update your submissions with your current in-game name! We will be mailing out prizes with the given in-game-name if the name is changed we can’t give you your prize!

A few more entries...

Category Name: Category 10 - How Cuteeeee are you?:
Title of your artwork: When the bosses were kids..
Link to Artwork: http://fav.me/d7ct5bv
Art Work Description: So we all know the big bad bosses for what they are in the game now.. but once upon a time, they were just little munchkins growing up and running around the Cradle causing trouble. Behold, the early years!
In-Game-Name: Veetorious

Category Name: Category 12 - Create a New Boss
Title of your artwork: Vinumflora
Link to Artwork: http://fav.me/d7ct5b9
Art Work Description: My new boss is inspired by the calm green forest levels found in the clockworks. It has spiked vines that wiggle and rotate around it to attack anyone getting close; shoots stun powder from the 4 trumpet canons, that cause shock if it comes in contact with a Knight - these also can rotate around the plant; after some time of attacking from the vines and trumpets, the leaves open up to reveal the center powerhouse as the plant boss recharges (like a plants chloroplasts getting energy from the sun -bit of a science nerd here! hehe); when this happens, the vines and trumpets go limp and allow for the Knights to hack away at the power center of the boss; after a few seconds of "recharging" the leaves close around the center once more and the vines and trumpets become active again. The plant deals elemental and normal damage. It is weak to piercing damage.

Title of your artwork: Capsule Candies
Link to Artwork: http://fav.me/d7bp1q9
Art Work Description: Everyone loves those mock pills that are candies. They would come in a bottle that looks like medication and the candies would be shaped like the health and status capsules of the game. Guaranteed to use them as much as in the game ;) A cure for your sweet-tooth! (...oooor not!)
In-Game-Name: Veetorious

Category Name: Category 5 - Create a Battle Sprite
Title of your artwork: Illustro
Link to Artwork: http://fav.me/d7bp1q1
Art Work Description: Trying to come up with a sprite that isn't too similar to the ones already created was a bit tough!
But I came up with Illustro! The attacks:
1) Illusion - Creates a fake mirror image of the Knight on the opposite side of the enemies which causes the monsters to attack it instead of the Knight for a few seconds until it wears off (like a distraction)
2) Amnesia - Confuses the adjacent enemies and they hurt themselves or other monsters in their vicinity with their attacks instead of the Knight
3) Infatuate - Causes the monsters to be momentarily mesmerized by Illustro and "give" a piece of their heart (aka health) to the Knight; this restores some lost health for the Knight; the more monsters affected in the vicinity, the greater the health boost

Title of Artwork: Spring-At-Peace (and side of a wolver pup monster pocket idea bookmark as an added bonus)
Link to Artwork: http://spring-at-peace.tumblr.com/tagged/Njthug-and-Digicom%27s-anniver…
Art Work Description: Well, since that I really wanted to do a little booklet with several practice drawings of my character at the beginning, I suddenly wanted to try giving a poem to it so it kind of has a description to my artwork. Though later on, I saw this contest posted in the TV section part of the forums, so I though that maybe I could give it a go. (a bit more description on wolver puppy pocket in link)

In case you can't really look at it through pictures, I have a video that can get a better look through it and can write out what the parts of the poem say:
