A challenge for the artists of heRO
Jens Wrote:I want Santa nailed to the cross!

Yes, exactly that. Those who know me might or might not know my attitude towards the most hypocritical time of the year aka christmas and especially that plague from cocacola advertisement called Santa Claus. It spreads all over the globe and turns beliefs into money. (Not that I believe in anything, but people making money from this kind of stuff make me sick) Add the generally bad or at least annoying stuff happening in my life recently, my laptoplessness atm and what you get? YES, I WANT TO SEE THAT BASTARD ON A CROSS!

Oh, and speaking of laptops, I'm gonna need a new desktop background when the laptop finally gets repaired or I get a new one. Hence I present you the challenge!

Draw me a wallpaper of Santa Claus being crucified. All I ask is a 16:10 aspect ratio, resolution 1280x800 or higher, and not a bright colored or white background. Oh, and you might wanna shift the centerpiece aka the cross a bit to the right, I keep most of the icons on desktop on the left side but there are some on the right edge too.
Otherwise it's all up to you..western or manga style, realistic or caricature, funny or gory, stand-alone or with a scenery, additional characters, speech bubbles...all up to your imagination.

A prize? Yes, there'll be prize for the winner of my little challenge, although I don't even know what it's gonna be yet. Might be zeny, might be some item, might be an undetermined time of slavery ingame, might just be my eternal gratitude and respect. Anyway, have yet to think about it.??But it most probably be ingame stuff and I'll try to make it worth while (of course, the real artists in you should be just thrilled by the challenge and enjoy the satisfaction when your work is done Icon_razz ) I guess I'll try to get at least something symbolic for the participants but don't expect much.

Oh and one last thing. Before someone starts screaming about blasphemy, may I remind you that crucifixion was a common method of execution in ancient Rome, Carthago etc???

I don't see the point in making such a violent image for no reason other than to amuse you.

Personally think you should make this image yourself. Probably easily could make a collage of some sort using magazine clippings and some crayons. I'm actually being serious with this by the way.

I really am going to pass on sharing the rest of my thoughts on this, as it will just cause a massively fat flame war most likely. In the SPIRIT OF THE SEASON I'mma not do that since I rather be nice than naughty. Don't wanna ruin the chance of getting more good gifts you know. :x

Wait, you thought there was a reason other than that? Icon_razz

RE: A challenge for the artists of heRO
Well what I mean is I wouldn't make an image like that.
But personally don't like to create violent works of art.

That isn't to say violent acts in art don't have their point, but I feel this one idea is more of a shock value than anything, and I don't care much for it. x)

I want a new wallpaper Icon_razz

Well, nobody forces you to draw it. I just present a challenge, it's up to other people whether they accept it.

RE: A challenge for the artists of heRO
Well knowing the exact form of payment would help actually.
Because tbh, you are asking for a fairly large image and to not give an idea of what you are willing to give makes it harder to judge if it would even be worth the time and effort put into it. :3

Which is why I suggested you make it yourself too. :D
Anyway I'll leave the topic now on this note.

Well, if I was in fact willing and able to make it myself, I wouldn't make this thread, would I?

And there's still time to specify the prize depending on the possibilities I have but I'd probably have to get ingame for that too >_>
