slikens
11-22-2008, 10:01 PM
How did i steal your idea? and yes it is lol i smudged all around the eyeball and the c4d on the left side was smudged then i duped the render, smudged the eyeball a bit and overlayed

so how do you figure? lol

Just to let people Know Blurring a Render Doesn't Count as Smudging, Also Your Signiture Should be Abstract, From what i have Seen Most of them Arn't Abstract or have Smudging in it.

Ya i no it only like you, me and grat that actually did abstract smudging and not just smudging a render or blurring it.

Mmk.

Hardly any of the sigs submitted are ABSTRACT SMUDGING. By abstract smudging, you don't just add a blur and call it smudging, you SMUDGE IT.

Donut and Lordoda are the best.

slikens
11-27-2008, 07:49 PM
Didn't like lordoda's at all but donut's has a decent flow

Purefire
11-27-2008, 07:59 PM
The flow doesn't matter too much since its abstract and smudge.

Other comments: If its not abstract... oh well. also, if i win id like the 10m to go to the runner up (i dont play in game)

No it doesn't have to be from scratch.
But it does actually have to be abstract.

On the contrary Abstract doesn't mean ****, it just means it can represent many things.

1. Abstract Art
Art with no defined meaning. Its purpose is to let the viewer interpret its meaning for him/herself. More often than not, abstract art is a collection of meaningless shapes and colors thrown onto a canvas. The intellectual art community, however, looks at this and calls the author a genius, promptly shelling out tons of money to buy a mess that could have been accidentally created by a two year old.

abstract isnt always a bunch of random shapeless blobs that sort of look like something, but sometimes it is.

this is a very broad subject for SOTM to be since abstract can be so many things

for example, http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:8UqoW-dKgi09dM:http://artstyleonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/orange-abstract-art.jpg (http://artstyleonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/orange-abstract-art.jpg) this is abstract and so is this http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:v5mQxm1PgV_CTM:http://abstractart.blogdrive.com/images/abstract-image-delightful.jpg (http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://abstractart.blogdrive.com/images/abstract-image-delightful.jpg&imgrefurl=http://abstractart.blogdrive.com/&usg=__WcgHYyv4nsVqLRpFndH4eNFNRQc=&h=456&w=448&sz=37&hl=en&start=4&um=1&tbnid=v5mQxm1PgV_CTM:&tbnh=128&tbnw=126&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dabstract%2Bart%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26s afe%3Doff%26rls%3Dcom.microsoft:*:IE-SearchBox%26rlz%3D1I7DKUS%26sa%3DN)

I know, but in abstract your not meant to TRY to draw anything, thats why angels and mine work as abstract art, but eyes don't :D lol.

I have idea to stop people from just voting for there friends.
We should not add name in the sigs or above the sigs, instead just place numbers(1,2,3..etc) or maybe letters(a,b,c...). This might help it to be fair to the people that aren't that popular but make good sigs.

whats the eye supposed to mean? if you cant tell me then its abstract

that just makes it easier to rip... we need names on sigs to stop that. also its a free vote, you can vote for whoever you want except yourself... if we start telling people who they cant vote for then nobody will want to vote.

No thats not how abstract works, you can do that with any art, Whats that brush in the background mean? abstract is more.. "What is that supposed to be? or represent?" Like Angel said his represents confusion. I didn't give mine an interpretation, left it to you

You did something with an eye to? :eek:
I did an eye lol. You done a eye for the competition or just a sig?

WTH is with the eyes, -.-. A rule in sotm should be not allowed to follow a tutorial. lol.

a portrait is a portrait a landscape is a landscape a scene is a scene... abstract is entire pieces not single objects in a piece. and you proved my point... anything can represent multiple things to different people even if its a famous object or person changed around.

Yes, "Changed around" you can't draw an eye and say its abstract unless you've done a colour mask or something, and they didn't even use smudging.

i dont care what people submit im just saying what is and is not abstract

Qrat
12-04-2008, 09:59 AM
thats the fact. if people are so dumb that they dont know what is abstract , then its theyr own fault and they are'nt contend on SOTM14.

slikens
12-04-2008, 10:44 AM
Since nobody answered me I'll ask again...

Can we change our entries?

ratmaster90
12-04-2008, 10:47 AM
probably not but im not sure

abstract isnt a very hard concept to grasp, so if people cant figure out what is and isnt abstract then they shouldnt enter

for example people probably wont think my punisher entry is abstract cause its from a comic but it it, most people see it as the movie but others understand what the concept of the punisher character really means, which is justice to the unjust. It can mean different stuff to different people.
