Contest time! Woo! That's right. It's time for another contest sponsored by the Subaru Ambassador program and another opportunity to win some cool Subaru stuff! What sort of contest, you ask? This time, it's a Subaru "art" contest! Seriously! I'm not joking! Let me explain how this is gonna work. Much simpler than my last contest: You post in this thread an ORIGINAL "artwork" created in MSPaint or equivalent. (Upload it directly or drop it in Imgur and link it or whatever you like.) *edit* Please also add a title to your creation in the following format: "Not Goatse" by Readymix A separate poll thread will be created displaying each masterpiece and the community here will vote on their favorite. That's it! There will be a winner and a runner-up. Both will get prizes! Top two with the most votes win. Prizes will include a set of 4 etched Subaru XT6 Commemorative Pint Glasses for each winner, plus other items to be chosen from including: a crowd-favorite stowable emergency shovel, hats (both winter and summer), Subaru creative lunchbox with coloring books/markers/chalk, and other gear. Now, let me explain what I'm looking for in your "artwork": Nothing fancy. No Da Vincis or Rembrandts. Notice I put "art" in quotes! The fact that it's being limited to MSPaint should tell you something. Be silly. Humor is encouraged. Draw something intentionally bad artistically. Draw something fun. Spend as little as 5 minutes making it. Or go nuts and spend a weekend and show your mad MSPaint skillz. Point is, artistic merit is not the most important thing. If it looks like a toddler drew it, that's absolutely fine! Just have fun with it. As you create your masterpiece, keep this in mind: The community will be asked to judge entries on the following in order of importance: 1. Originality/Creativity. 2. How Subaru-related it is. (e.g. just drawing a Subaru logo on something random would be 'not very' Subaru related) 3. Execution/artistic merit. RULES: 1. Must be drawn in MSPaint or equivalent (like Paintbrush on a Mac. I'm sure there is some equivalent for Android and iOS) No Photoshop, Illustrator, Gimp, etc. Nothing fancy. I guess you could use a Wacom if you REALLY want to. Point is, use a VERY basic application. 2. MUST be 100% original and no photos. (honor system here) 3. KEEP IT PG! No questionable or adult content. Seriously people. 4. Submissions should be posted in this thread by May 18th. Any questions? Have fun and post 'em here when you got 'em! Commentary, appreciation, and friendly ridicule of submissions is also encouraged.
So...I'm guessing my depiction of Derp's red Probe GT won't fly here...not only because it isn't Subaru related.
I don't think I saw that one! I can imagine. Well, it depends on exactly HOW it's being depicted, lol. But, if you need to ask...
Absolutely not! Have fun! Might as well use those education dollars on something worthwhile! Just remember that artistic merit is the least important metric. But I look forward to seeing what you can do! *edit* I see your ninja edit! I'll leave this up for posterity to eliminate any confusion.
I'll set the bar nice and low for you guys and since it's slow at work today... "Subie Stain" by joebush44
Just because they say art mimics life doesn't mean you have to include the oil on the ground, its implied
Yeah, not sure implied goatse is PG. And it has a photo. Denied! I'll have to report you to staff.....oh. Right. Lol.
No, the hands are opening up the world to the Subaru. Get your head out of the gutter. I don't have the original files, but I can always re-do it with a hand drawn subaru.
The world spreading forth it's... loving embrace?, and out... plops?... a Subaru? That premise might be a bit of a... stretch. Hey, if you can re-draw it so it's just a wee bit (lot) more subtle (and without a photo), it might fly. I look forward to seeing what you create! Just for reference:
PG or not, that ones a classic! I’ve always thought that you should have added a rainbow coming out of the butt tho($.02 sense?) Also:”ALL OF THEM”! That is all.
I'm pretty impressed by how good the front end looks. What's up with the front wheel, tho? Mad drift radius? Regardless, awesome work.
That's where most of my time went, had to make it look like a subaru. You can tell because the rest of it is pretty meh It's that #shoppingcartangle
subscribed for the LOLs. The pictures are awesome, the comments cement this thread as a future sticky...
He said keep it PG...That's a pretty graphic photo of a scantily clad bikini model on the door there, sir.
is his floor electrified? Or just painted with brown stripes? Either way, this picture rules. BBall hoop, bikini model Dukes of Hazard jumping STI. What's not to like?
