It's happening again! Oh noes!

Most of you are familiar with the tradition of the Zero Worm drawing contest. The rules are simple. Draw Zero. Worm. You know, me. Draw him fighting evil robots or going fishing or trying to open a jar of pickles. Whatever you want. Just make it look cool, and maybe you'll win the prize!

...The prize? Oh, yeah, it's a... err... I'll... come up with that later.

RULES RULES RULES.

1. One entry per contestant. If you decide you don't like your entry, you can remove it and do a new one if you like.
2. Any medium is accepted, except for animations -- still images only, please.
3. Believe it or not, I'm going back on the follow-attachment-size-limit rule this time. Go any size you want. Do [img] it into this thread, though, if possible, please and thanks.
4. Go light on gore. I know Zero carves stuff up with his beam saber all the time, but that doesn't mean we want buckets of meat splattered all over the place. I'm not exactly saying a drop of blood will get you disqualified, but you know. Use good taste.
5. I'll stop accepting new entries whenever it seems like there won't be any more, and will pick out the ten I like best; these 10 finalists will go up to a vote for the winner.
6. Golden Rule: Don't take this too seriously; It's meant to be fun!

Once this one is over, I think I'll get around to setting up a ZWDC gallery on Ground Zero. Yay, content.

*fires gun into the air* OG OG OG OG OG!

Sounds nice.

Though i can't draw that good so i'm not entering.

I wonder who will win.

When's the closing date, Zeor?

Given I'm in Manchester next week and all.

Here's mine!;)

Yay! Zero Worm Drawing Contest for teh WIN!
Entry make must!

I will start mine once I get FLASH PRO 8.
Expect lots of blurring. And glowyness.

When's the closing date, Zeor?

Given I'm in Manchester next week and all.

As always, I won't establish a set closing date until we've already gotten a good handful of entries, so take your time.

Sometimes bad shading comes in handy.

It makes others feel better about their own shading

Something about me says I feel like picking up the old pen and drawing again.

Where I'll have time, I have no idea. Why must you do this the week school begins again?

Wrongo. For me, at least.
I can never bring myself to draw during the summer because I can do other things. During school, I'm sitting in school for 6 hours and I do homework for another 2 at least. Prime drawing time, that.

Here's mine.

Sorta of a quick entry. I say quick because it was easy to make all together. It took me a good 3 or so hours straight.

Good job there, Slick.

Got an idea.
Gonna be HOT.
I know how to draw Llamas now.

Let's see if I'll, once more, spend an entire month on a compo pic.

T_T
There goes another opportunity to win this thing :(
Also that be AWESOME Slick.

100% agreed.
I hardly have time to do anything anyway, as I always leave my summer homework till the last week.

Why is it that reminds me of Traxada's art?

a drawing contest that promotes the use of overly shinyness?! I'm in! :p

Why is it that reminds me of Traxada's art?

The strong angular lines?

Goddamn that background is awesome. As is the the Foreground. And just about everything.

Particularly the sabre effects. They're simple, but extremely stylish.

Zero's pose is absolutely perfect. I looks like it should be part of an animation.

I'm going to have to pull out all the stops to come third again this year.:D

Yay! heres mine! [Sorry about the empty space on the side]

I would enter, but you're helmet is proving to be the most difficult thing to draw ever.

Thanks alot!:p

Well I guess he's better than me then :p.

Looking Back on some of the entries on page 1, I doubt that I will win. Ah well. Practice Makes Perfect.;)

Remorse remorse. Forgive me.Not bad, but is there some reason you couldn't post that in this thread instead of that one?

Yes, because I'll probably change it with something better...

*edit* ugh, nevermind. Slick for teh win...

Hmm... are you... SURE (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/15733984/?qo=3&q=sigworminator) about that?

I know.....He he! I'm EVIL, And lazy, I didin't think anybody would find out.

I thought it looked out of place.

Anyway, I made an attempt.

I had to hand draw Zero, the helmet was too difficult to do with a mouse.

For glod's sake.. IT'S JUST A HELMET!!

A very.. nice.. shiny, glowy... hard-to-draw.. helmet... which Zeo.. r.. loves...

Why is it that reminds me of Traxada's art?

:mad:
I don't draw worms with the number "3"ish looking mouth!
Not sure where you got that one. :p

Alien King: I like the concept and atmosphere of that one.

Agent Luke: Get lost.

Ohh...interesting contest. I'll enter too... tomorrow after school.:eek:

For glod's sake.. IT'S JUST A HELMET!!

A very.. nice.. shiny, glowy... hard-to-draw.. helmet... which Zeo.. r.. loves...

Whats a Glod?

Oh, and AL's has got some weird shapes, there are shades everywhere.. or theres just lots of lights.... mhhhh.... quite a decent pic for Agent Luke's doing.

Whats a Glod?glod is the creator of the almighty Slorgg (who ownar!). need ye any more information? ;)

Glod is a Dwarf who plays the horn.

And now to prove that Zero's helmet isn't all that hard to draw realy, and to make Zero unduly woried, here's a little preview of my entry.

Y'know, the last time someone drew Zero witouth his helmet, I think the universe exploded.

And now to prove that Zero's helmet isn't all that hard to draw

:p

That's the first time I've ever drawn it. Plus I suck at drawing.

The last statement is open to debate, but I suggest you don't debate it.

And as is also my yearly tradition, I'll be joining this contest, instead of any other ones.

Expect to see new learned techniques that I didn't know last year, as always. ;)

Oh dear.

I had considered remastering my old Zero drawing, but a) it needs re-doing totally to look good, b) everyone else's are just too good, and c) I can't be arsed.

Agent Luke: Get lost.




Oh Come on! Its not like I stole the presidents furniture! And in the words of worm god: ITS JUST A HELMET!!!!

Oh Come on! Its not like I stole the presidents furniture! And in the words of worm god: ITS JUST A HELMET!!!!

It's called cheating so, get lost! It is the LOWEST thing I've ever seen anyone do exept for stealing splapps art...oh wait...SO DID YOU!

Anywayz

Zeor: I'm making a new entry in wich you don't look as foolish as you normally do as in my entry.

Alienking: That is VERY decent-looking

Philbee: You have amazing feeling for prespective and I suspect you mind works in 3D...Can I borrow it sometimes?

Note to self: Clean out your room to find those Zero-Helmet sketches you did once!!!

Oh Come on! Its not like I stole the presidents furniture! And in the words of worm god: ITS JUST A HELMET!!!!

A helmet that if it's took off, the universe could end as we know it. Or maybe there's a evil rubber chicken of doom. We don't know.

Oh Come on! Its not like I stole the presidents furniture! And in the words of worm god: ITS JUST A HELMET!!!!

It could have only been three pennies, but it would still be stealing. What I'm trying to say is that it doesn't matter how, what, where, when, or how much you steal, Agent Luke, It is still stealing, and stealing is wrong.

I vote for a ban and let's stop spamming this topic up

---ANYONE POSTING BENEATH THIS LINE MUST POST ON TOPIC OR SHALL BE SLAYED BY THE BIG SLOGG (who ownar)---

And now to prove that Zero's helmet isn't all that hard to draw realy, and to make Zero unduly woried, here's a little preview of my entry.QUITE a masterful job of drawing those helmets!! I do believe you've gotten dark near the perfect shapes and everything else for those helmets there. that is quite nice indeed, I can't wait to see the full version.

Yeah what he said. BTW What's that other black hat?

Ooo, now I'm all excited for Philby's entry. That is excellent.Y'know, the last time someone drew Zero witouth his helmet, I think the universe exploded.Twice.

I think it imploded first...

Entry is getting worked on, i'd say i have about 45% done... MURFH

I have an new entry, but I'll leave the link to the old entry here for the sake of the thread making sence.

My entry.

Don't ask me what the hell is going on in it, I don't know.

Btw, if you don't know who the black helmet belongs to you realy should follow the link in Zero's sig (no, not the one that leads here) and visit ground zero. You won't regret doing so.

My entry.
HE PREDICTS THE FUTURE!!!
But no need to worry, most of you will still be slayn(?) by Aku before that.

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/39360465/

My entry.Whoa. Can't say I expected that. Very nice, but I somehow still think the two helmets is the best part of it. :p

Like last year, it seems to somehow say cover-of-a-comic-book.

it is mine. (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/39371896/)

and that is all I say for now.

I'd say that's the best picture you've done.
And it's better than Alien King's.

Nope, I think you are pretty much disquilified for this year. Stealing art, even it being a small amount, tends to really **** artists off. :p

That's a dirty lie.

Mmm yeah, maybe the lighting of the sword is a bit overdome but I like how it came out... meh, I'm not gonna win anyway! :p

Looks like the entries are showing a bit slower than usual this year. C'mon, folks! :p

End shameless bump

I want to enter, and I have quite a fun idea, but between realVG, a maths thingy I'm doing, and procrastination, time's a little short.

trying to work on this AND the fanartist of the month thing and it's proving a bit tough...

You do know that you can enter a sero comp pic into the monthly comp too, yes?

Funny, but what in the blue hell sound does a tilde S make? :pFollowing the trend that ñ means ny, sy?

Actually, now that I think of it, a tilde S was part of my own customized Spanish Class name. I'm pretty sure I invented a couple of other accents to go in it as well, including a Super Accent on the final E, which was about the length of the actual written word. We pronounced it "HWO-syAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy."

My teacher wouldn't buy it.

That is a true shame. How was it spelled?

I don't remember. It was written on the front of my folder, I think, though. I'll definitely have to find that again. Oh, the doodles my friend and I used to make on our worksheets...

The only thing at all that I even come close to disliking is the blades of the sabers, but they still look cool in their own right, and that whole freakin' thing is gold. Excellent work. Thanks.

Yeah, I rushed it a lot at the end.

Nice to see people liked it, though.

ooooooo, very nice, pigbuster. love it.

on another note, I sitll do intend to post an entry, I'm still working on it and my fanartist of the month thing.

Here it is at last. I'm afraid CPP8 got lost in the Great Crash of two weeks ago today, so have this oldskool MS Paint version (resize by GIMP) instead...

WOW LOOK AT HIS HEAD!

Great joke there, but the head/helmet really stands out :p

soooo? is it over yet?

I'm more or less waiting for Aku at this point.

I'm more or less waiting for Aku at this point.right! I've been distracted. just go ahead and get it over with. I'll post my image in my thread whenever I bother to finish it :p *grows a tumor of laziness*

Alright, I'll wrap it up this weekend.

Not so fast!
My sketch was funnier, featured mi baby sig crying with the caption "MEANIE!" on it... but I couldn't get the crying expression right on paint with this mouse, so went with something easier. 5 minutes :p

That's very smooth for something done in Paint, well done. (unless you used the curve tool :p)

Or used a tablet.

but I couldn't get the crying expression right on paint with this mouse

:rolleyes:

lol, that's pretty neat. Certainly original enough.

NEW ENTRY!

It's great having absolutely no knowlege of the megaman games and their numerous spin-offs.

It lets me pull of random crap like GIANT ROBOT ZERO!

I'm glad you put a worm in that, otherwise we would've had that whole argument again.

the green circles meant to be the little glowing gems present on zero's helmet look extremely fake. they look like they've just been tossed on without care. I don't know exactly what it is about them they just look.....bleh.

I wouldn't have got very far trying that in the 'Zeroworm drawing contest'.:p

For some reason I set the glows layer to 'luminosity'.

Better?much. still looks very very slightly off but now it's nothing I would've commented on.

GODDAMMIT Philby! (That's awesome)

It's nice, but the background is far too dull.

It's nice, but the background is far too dull.have to agree here, the background is rather lack-luster.

That's quite cool. I like all the dramatic lighting. And it's definitely unique.

My favorite feature, though, is the scythe... Something about it strikes me as double-cool.
