Pigbuster- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/508439/Teamis/Worm_Budz.png


8 entries. Not too bad considering the fanart forum is a bit inactive, anyway, i'm voting Akuryou13 because I love the detail on it, and its so impressive and not something I expected at all.... liked Thurbo's and Pigbusters entries too.

Eventually decided to vote for Aku... I was thinking of voting for Pigbuster, too, but I actually don't like what the worms look like. In addition, they got bloody arms!! (I'm talking about their limbs, not HK's sword, btw)

I'ma go ahead and vote Pigbuster because I love it.

Roboslob

So? Thats a personal style choice, and l for one like it. lts certanly uncommon around here.

Ever heard of a game called Worms 1?

Thurbo
8 May 2010, 22:15
Sure I did, but I may have my own fondnesses and I like worms more without arms ;)

Was meant to be a joke anyways. I simply like Aku's image more, thus I've chosen it and for the fact that choosing yourself makes you look lame <--- Do NOT take this sentence serious, it's another joke...

I was thinking of voting for MtlAngelus, because his worm was really handsome. :D
But when he said that wasn't even an entry, I decided to choose .JeT. His gun is awesome.

I voted for Aku. To point out, this may be the first contest in which he actually wins. :p
Also, darn I missed the competition.

Akuryou13

MtlAngelus
9 May 2010, 18:30
Well, if you read the forum rules, you'll see that any vote aku gets only counts as half a vote. :cool:

That's precisely the reason why I voted for second-best Thurbo instead.

C'MON GUYS, WHAT HAPPENED TO TRADITION?!

Pyramid

By tradition Gingierneck should win with all the votes then

Your face has no votes. :cool:

Thurbo

What do you mean by "tradition" then?

Anyways I could bite my a** off for not drawing this picture any earlier :p

It was a longstanding tradition that aku never won fanartist of the month, and it was also a tradition that gingerneck would win any compo he entered. That was back when the fanart here was actually worth something and when people didn't need to go around picking non-entries to fill empty slots in their competitions *ahem*.

Well, I saw the images. It's hard to admit it, but I thought Thurbo's image was the best. Why? Because I didn't see the akuryou13's image link. So I rated him.
After I saw that, well....I felt in love with that. =D
Sorry Nils, your drawings are really good, but Akou's image took my heart. lol

Akuryou, I would like to use your image as background on my Youtube's channel. I have put the credits into the image. Can I?

EDIT: I checked the second Thurbo's image. This one could be nice to use on some banner or even as logo of some clans. For example, mine! =P Of course, I give credits, I'm not a thief.

Heh. Well I could use it for something like that, after all it represents my team... involved in an epic battle. :p

Thurbo

Hm yea, but probably because it's so stretched...

First - what reading comprehension?! Here's what you've written:
Ok, I'll do something.


In the meantime, bask in some handsomeness.

I supposed it to be an entry as well.

Second - boo to traditions. This whole forum is way too sarcastic and not serious :p Aku deserved it because his image is really cool and gingerneck winning because s/he just entered a competition is LAAAME.

I agree, ALLWAYS when gignerneck enters on any competition most of the people go like: BRILLIANT, AWESOMENESS, COOL *coughcoughmtlangeluscoughcough*

10 May 2010, 18:14
oh look. I was right. that looks terrible.

Don't be so sure and don't underestimate your work. My purpose was to make the knight to be completely visible (ok partially) and to highen up the curiosity of people about "the enemy". Who's the enemy? How does it look? All this in one image.

Meanwhile, waiting for worms reloaded, you gave me some idea to improve my channel. Consider that your image sent me to try new things on Youtube. =P

PS: Yes, as Thurbo said, I needed to stretch the image otherwise it could not be visible. Consider the image to be seen from a different point of view (precisely, just behind the knight. Could be his helper?)

Who's the enemy? How does it look? All this in one image.no, no. my image isn't what I have issue with. it's the application of that image. your page looks like something an invalid shat out.

no, no. my image isn't what I have issue with. it's the application of that image. your page looks like something an invalid shat out.

eheh. Well, trying is the recipe of editing. At least I'll leave this image until I create a logo of my new worms reloaded clan. But be sure that your picture would have a place. In fact, I can create a new hud for worms 4 about chivalry. I was planning to do it and started, but then I left because of some events. Now I have the reason to continue.

Thurbo
10 May 2010, 22:00
So you are gonna create a Worms Reloaded clan? Only Italians or international? And what kind of picture would you imagine as a logo? :p

D_Wormkill
11 May 2010, 09:33

At beginning I was planning to create an Italian one, but maybe, like I did in Worms 4, it will become international (the I of IWS could be italian or international). About logo, well....probably the second image you posted Thurbo, but I don't know.

Thurbo
11 May 2010, 13:05
I'd like to redraw that image, then. More worms from left to right (about ten, with disappearing at the horizone y'know ;)), in the middle your sigworm (as the clan leader), in the background a fire or something with one or two helicopters flying above it, all that hand-drawn (for anti-aliasing) and I could colour it with Paint Shop Pro as soon as I get it. At the very top I might add the clan's logo, whatever you wanna call it. :D

To make it proper it'd be cool if you told me what format it should have or show me a preview of the website or something. It's way easier to imagine the picture you wanna draw then.

How about joining your clan anyways? If it's international, the website should be written in English though. Maybe you find a well Italian-English translator thus the site won't be full of grammar/spelling mistakes.

Akuryou13
11 May 2010, 13:11
About logo, well....probably the second image you posted Thurbo, but I don't know.that image? is NOT a logo.

Thurbo
11 May 2010, 13:16
He's probably just written the wrong word. I guess he meant banner or something.

Akuryou13
11 May 2010, 13:43
He's probably just written the wrong word. I guess he meant banner or something.even then it's a terrible idea. you don't use paintings/drawings for website backgrounds. the reason? his page right now. it makes the image AND the page both look awful.

Thurbo
11 May 2010, 13:52
That's why I told him to let me re-draw the scene :p

D_Wormkill
11 May 2010, 16:01
even then it's a terrible idea. you don't use paintings/drawings for website backgrounds. the reason? his page right now. it makes the image AND the page both look awful.

Of Akuryou13 I love the tact of saying things eheh! =P I changed something right now on Youtube page. Right now I'm looking for alternative solutions, but this is not the definitive thing. If you want to know, I changed the colours of windows: from grey and green I passed to blue and black.
About your image, I'm trying to make it fit in the screen in the best way I could, you know. That's hard, but "without trying you get nothing".

How about joining your clan anyways? If it's international, the website should be written in English though. Maybe you find a well Italian-English translator thus the site won't be full of grammar/spelling mistakes.

Don't worry about translation. I used to translate the whole italian text in my worms 4 mayhem clan by myself (I love writing, eheh). The image you posted is of course the idea, but drawing that again could be nicer. Yes, I meant banner, not logo. My apologies: I was unconscious when I wrote that. But before speaking about that, let's create the website first.

About your image, I'm trying to make it fit in the screen in the best way I could, you know. That's hard, but "without trying you get nothing".my point is that my image isn't something that lends itsself to use on the web. it's not that you're doing something wrong, it's that there's no way to do it RIGHT. you made a poor choice in trying to use an image from this contest as the background on a website. if nothing else, the image is far too small to scale up correctly, but even if it did it would be a poor choice. it's just not something that suits that sort of web page.

Akuryou's right, you should be getting your page backgrounds from this website (http://www.lucifer.com/~sasha/anim/ab.html) instead.
