Welcome ladies and gents to the 7th Grand Graphics Tournament's ROUND 4!

 

Our wonderful artists are here to pit their skills against one another. Some also hope to earn fs fame and fortune!

 

The theme for this round is.... Ancient Deities

 

What are 'Ancient Deities'?

"In most religions, a deity is a supernatural being, who may be thought of as holy, devine, or sacred." - Wiki

"A being with powers greater than those of ordinary humans, but who interacts with humans, positively or negatively..." - Littleton

List of deities

http://en.wikipedia....List_of_deities

 

Think gods/goddesses from Greek, Egyptian, Roman, Celtic, Mesopotamian, etc etc mythology.

 

 

Your job as the artist is to create a piece of a God/Goddess and must include the name of the deity as well as an element/symbol of what they rule over or what their well known for.

 

You can use Wiki to look up a god's/goddess' name and see what their symbols are on the right hand side.

 

Please feel free to PM me if you have questions or need to bounce an idea.

 

 

Your piece can be in signature OR avatar format, no larger than 250h x 500w (standard FS signature sizes) and no smaller than 200h x 200w (standard FS game avatar size).

Note: Please let me know how you feel about the deadline. I know we're nearing Thanksgiving (USA) and that might cause some time issues for some. If you feel 1 week (7 days) is not enough time, let me know what you think a good amount of time should be. Because of the approaching holiday, I'm willing to extend the deadline IF the majority of artists feel it should be extended. Otherwise, no last minute extension.

[Zukira]

Congrats to everyone that has made it so far!

 

Man I almost wish I were participating this time.  I know precisely what Goddess I'd be doing.  Ereshkigal!  

 

Looking forward to seeing what ya'll do.

[Hic242]

This round sounds great! Can't wait to see the artwork and wish I was participating.

[jsustin212]

Now this will be fun

[Patnov]

This one is going to be interesting....

[MindyN5]

The deadline works for me. I was afraid I had to ask more than given, but that will be ample time. Next week will be super busy for me, so great!

[Edward Elric]

I love the theme considering I'm going to study Theology. I can't wait to see everyone's entries and good luck to all the artists.

[Chagryn]
