So, stuff has been happening, and stuff will be happening soon! Even have a bit of good news!
Digital Graphic Large Piece
This event has come and gone, and we didn't do too bad! Our two awesome entrants were Linkin Park Fan and Sapphire Dragon. Here's what they came up with:
Planet Starscape (SD)
Becoming Mother Nature (LPF)
Here's what the judges said:
Other events have started, including Creative Essay, in which Whitefalcon and SpaceWalker are participating. Both are hard at work, though SW tells me he'll be swamped with work this week. We'll see what happens! Good luck guys!

I was pleasantly surprised by your entry. The color, the concept, and the blending are all great. I'm not a huge fan of those overlapping circles, though, and the typography is terrible.
Score: 9.0

Sapphire Dragon
What hurts you most is the lack of creativity. It looks like a pretty standard tutorial. Also, in the future, try saving as PNG or higher quality JPG so you don't get that ring effect coming from the lens flare.
Score: 6.5
quote aphexHarsh judging there, they had their work cut out for them! A big well done to both of you! Congrats to LPF who came second place, and hard luck to SD, who didn't. :_oops: Thanks to LPF we're guaranteed some measure of glory at the end of the games, so no pressure on the rest of the team! No slacking off, though! >=PSapphire Dragon
Space themed works can be interesting. Firelight did a fairly good job at that a while back. Not sure if you were there but he added various effects to his pieces and added a lot more depth then I see in yours. It's simple, and feels incomplete. Simplicity is good, except when there is so little to go by that it becomes boring and therefore lacking. It's great that you ended up doing something that not many people in G&A choose to do but something we have seen from time to time.
I applaud you for doing most of the work without the help of google images. But, I feel you can do a lot more to this that you just chose not to.
5.7/10

You really pulled together are brought a pretty ace entry. I was never really been a fan of the colors until I viewed the full version. The colors are nicely blended, even though I think the yellow stands out a bit more then it needs to.
The whole piece has a nice feel that just draws everything together. It has an excellent color scheme and a very well done compilation. You had an interesting concept and pulled it off well.
8.5/10
