Voting: (thanks to Loominous for the system)
Voting will take place on the 16th and 17th of February. Please give one vote in each of the following categories:

* Best Idea - The underlying idea to the background. Doesn't neccesserily have to coincide perfectly with the theme of the week, just strike you as interesting/amusing/inspiring; a place you'd really enjoy visiting within a game.

* Best Design - The style of the picture, architectural, landscape design, best mood, most evocative etc.

* Best Functionality - How well it would work when adding sprites, including appropriate walking distances, good angle for character sprites, clever walkway solutions, easily understood exits etc.

sorry about that, but there was already an 'enchanted forest' in a previous background blitz. I had this guilty feeling someone might have already started on the forest ... sorryÃ,  8) I viewed at previous comps too late

I can't remember where i got it ... hmmm, long time ago.

I'm sorry.  I'm new to this. What are we supposed to do again? I did a search but nothing came up.

Draw a background (following the rules), that's it.

What happened to the thread for the previous Blitz? I thought I'd link to it to let theatrx see, but it doesn't appear on the board any more.  ???

Previous Blitz
You can get to it through Darth's previous posts (or anyone's that posted in it, obviously), but for some reason it's not on the board. Same thing happened with the coding comp I hosted before Christmas..
I know what you're thinking ... Don't think that.

For some reason both of them are the very end, the last page of the Competitions and Activities board.

Its called "under the bridge".

This is where Old Man McGee Lives, he was kicked out of the hostel, and now has to live here. Alone.


Bye bye thankyou I love you.

Mordalles

i did this pic for a game im busy with. although, the pic is far from finished. but i wont be working on it for quite while, so i'll enter what I have now.

it's just a normal background pic, so no big idea behind it. and the water bothers me immensely.

But hey, if you guys just want to locate the more recent activities, why not just use the Hall of Fame ? :-\

I was going to colour it but decided on a tonal piece instead. About 45 minutes in total.

Oh my god. That's it for me. But what's the tent-shaped thing in the background?

Zooty, great work! Love the idea.

Looks awesome Mordy!

Dan, That's really good! But you must colour it, it's very sketchy and concept artyÃ,  ;D I'd love to see something like that finished!

More ENTRIES!!

ildu: you are the most active member in the background blitzes without entering?? When will you honour us with an idlu masterpiece??

sektor 13: that's brilliant, of course.
