Challenge winner asukicco challenges you this week to pixel a musical band comprised entirely of animal characters. You must name the band, the musical genre and every single instrument the members play in the description.
Be creative, like "Quack Punk", "Pig in Japan" or "Winged Sisters". The scene can be a photo for a magazine or a photo taken at a concert, but in both cases all band members must hold their instruments (if you chose the first one, a potential drummer can simply hold his sticks).
Instruments can be fake, and even hybrids between animal and instrument are ok.
Canvas Size - A square canvas; max 200 x 200.
Colours - Max 64.
Transparency - No.
Animation - No.
The challenge thread will have all the challenge updates. The thread is also a great place to post your WIPs.
I wanted to see what happened if we only got one entry :p Would they get all 3 top prizes? How does PJ handle that?
He's also a total furry. You don't want to tempt him.
That, and I'm gone all weekend, so whatever chance I had of creating something is pretty much gone now :p
I've heard that Kaiseto's a pretty good pixel artist, maybe he should enter :o
@tenentenen: we can say mic is an instrument, or vocal cords if you prefer. It's just a way to not include some limitations to the challenge. So yes, you can do acapella, beatboxers and such.
I'm not sure If a mic constitutes as an instrument for a vocalist. as they make the music with their voice not the mic. I'm still not sure if I can do a band with a vocal based genre such as rap or acapella, choirs, beatboxers, can I get an anwer? thanks a bunch!
Great challenge! I'm exited to see what people come up with :D
@raynoa: awesome! If you manage to came up with another idea, you're welcome :D (love the idea of two commodores stick together instead of a regular accordion)
Can we have a vocalist, or must he also hold an instrument?
Nice challenge! But I already have hires picture with similar theme=) http://raynoa.deviantart.com/art/Scene-Accordeon-112528732
what about rap or other vocal based genres such as acapella or barbershop quartet, beatboxing, choirs....
Hey! I got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell!
what about instruments that are...not really insruments? (dub step...?)
Do you mean we can mix two animals/mix two instruments, or mix an animal and an instument.
Can we use fishes and other sea dwellers? I wanna use octopus as a drummer lol
Great idea for a challenge... Bearosmith, Nine inch snails, Pig Floyd.....oh I can't decide...lol ;o)
This sounds good, I've already got an idea, based on New Kids On The Block.
This is a great concept. Wish I had time for this one. Couldn't you have waited a couple of weeks? :(
omg, why come all the great challenges when i don't have the time for them? gnarf!
not gonna happen. always enough ribbon whores waiting in the bushes =)
