This week we want you to make a portrait, with each quarter of the face having a different palette restriction. Please make sure you read the restrictions carefully.
Canvas size - Exactly 70 (width) x 90 (height). Use this template:
Colours - Restrictions for each quarter:
Top left - Exactly 2 colours.
Top right - Exactly 3 colours.
Bottom left - Exactly 5 colours.
Bottom right - Exactly 8 colours.
You may use different colours for each quarter.
Animation - No.
Transparency - Optional.
Oops sorry about that. I'm still pretty fresh to PixelJoint's social aspects. I was always just a gallery lurker.
Good points though
I see absolutely nothing wrong with a lot of people putting candles on steaks. It probably tastes better than those cakes that they sell at the stores that have been frozen for about half a year that cost about 2 dollars. I do like steak.
I think I missed the point.
Okay, its a lot like when people used transparency to shade and AA on the B&W sprite challenge. I think its because we're all trying to be creative, but we all think of the same thing.
Guess what I'm doing with the next steak I eat.
In the future, hit the reply button so I get it in my inbox.
I appreciate flavor and the fact that we have members that visit every facet of the restriction's capabilities. But it's like having a birthday cake creation contest and half the bakers frying up a steak with candles on it, haha
Looks like a lot of the entrants are just taking this challenge as a reason to use 4 completely unrelated palettes to make some sort of pop-art out of their portraits. Opposed to the 'Fibonacci' element of the portraiture, which would be the higher color sectors being where the focus lies - Fibonacci's holy grail - the bullseye of the golden spiral. Since the psychodelic style portrait route has been pretty widely adapted, maybe when the Warhol Faces challenge comes up a lot of people will make fine art homages. :P
You mead those strainge faces that the artists used to draw and then worship?
so I can draw a tree with different seasons in different quarters?
EDIT: urgh, just remembered the "face" part.... Trees can have faces right? :D
I meant no offence Flarfy.
I like to give this challenge a shot if I can get my LCD calloborated (which seems unlikely at the moment...)
...or a sentient engine-thing partially submerged in orange undulating liquid inside a spherical container :P
Erm, anyway, I think it's ok allowing non-human portraits though, just as long as they really are portraits. I remember there was a line in the Omnivortrait challenge that said "You may let your appearance mutate if you like." Bad idea. >_<
So I can draw myself as a pipe, car or a spaceship?
(Personnaly, I would of gone for human only to avoid confusion...)
"interesting challenge", good luck with verifying the entries =)
Someone from the mod team; usually skamocore. He came up with this one.
Interesting challenge! I want to ask, who makes up the challenges when its not attributed to a winner?
sounds interesting, might actually enter this one if I get time/ arent extremely lazy this week.
