For the purpose of this challenge anything that would fall under the category of "arthropod" is OK.

Transparency - No.
Animation - Optional.
The challenge thread will have all the challenge updates. The thread is also a great place to post your WIPs.
... I don't suppose the topic of this was inspired in any way by a long running gag over at ConceptArt.org?
This seems like a good PA challenge. I have one big question about this challenge, though. Can there be more than 2 bugs fighting?
well, i totally agree with Pandora'sSecret. as stated before, i am disappointed by the posters of that link.
I can't help but agree 100% with Pandora'sSecret i'm completely and totally discusted by that link and what comes across as a psyudo-endorsment for horrific unethical treatment of animals.
The Japanese bug fighting videos.
Am i the only one who thinks this is a hoirible link? How can a site as renowned as PJ almost advertize this. Bug fights are no better or worse than Dog or rooster fights. I feel disgusted. The natural aspect of one defending it's ground against the other, well is nature. Nothing we humans can do anything against or should do anything against. But to willingly and knowingly put two bugs in a tiny space, knowing one will die is just murder,
I truly hope PixelJoint staff will delete that link.
I'm not 100% sure what Xion Night's intentions were, but I think anything that fits in the category of arthropods should be ok. So spiders, scorpions, butterflies, crabs, centepedes, grasshoppers, wasps, flies, ants and of course scarabs are all acceptable.
Also, I think fictional creatures are ok, as long as they fit under the classification of arthropods - segmented bodies, jointed limbs and an exoskeleton.
I'll update the article.
I like the idea I'll participate if I find the time to. Great challenge.
lol, now i feel like doing a peice based one that. not to to insult but merely as a joke. i have the biggest erge to do it, but i'm a very lazy person so i probably won't get aroundt to it.
could you have found an even more disgusting example than the bonus link? seriously, i'm disappointed by you.
Question: Is this considering arachnids(Spiders, and scorpions) as Insects? Since they technically are NOT Insects.
I can sense a lot of scarab fights... *couch* Jalonso *couch*
Xion Night would have to tell us about that... but you can provide us with some links so long.. :-)
