got mine going for now.
i call em dark ops, another rank of elites.their kind of like spec ops, but their usually sent in as groups of two to four depending on the situation.their build is a tad different, being more slim and atheletic than a standard elite.i am working on an altered energy blade for them as well.
more to come.

i'd really like to join this art contest but the "SevenColumnArt@gmail.com" link isn't working and I'd really like to know how I'd send this if I'm painting in Photoshop ? so are we allowed to send TIFF files (Photoshop) ?

While in Photoshop, go to save as and you should see a format tab. In there you can switch the format of your picture to .jpeg or .gif . You also got the email adress wrong, its [email]seventhcolumnart@gmail.com[/email].

Alright, so sure you can draw stuff, but what about stained glass? I'm working on a project that should be done about that time, it'd be easy to take a picture of it.

OK so to answer a few questions. When then winner and runners up are picked, a news post will aslo be posted at BFO along with all of thier Submited pics. Depending on how mahny are actually entered and such BFO may host a gallery displaying every submited pic, but we wont know if we can do that till later.

As for the overseas issue, that just means I'll have to save a little cash for S&H (if a none US resident wins) so this would only delay you getting your prize, you will get it though, no matter what country, I'll send. As for what the Prize will be, well I'm keping that a surprise, all you can know is that its something from the Bugnie Store.

Oh!, and remember, this is just a friendly contest, its not all about winning, so Have Fun!

:\ I still have to draw a background.. and I'm trying to resist the urge to touch it up in Photoshop. I'd feel like such a tool if I did that.

Ah well.

To save something as a .gif in ohtoshop, press: Shift + Ctrl + Alt +S at the same time, then save. Alternatively, find the option for "save for web" in the 'file' menu.

<edit>

Ok, so we have lots of submissions now which is great. But please, Please make sure every part of the art work is drawn/made by you and that it is Bungie related.

Certain exceptions can be made in certain circumstances but it is most preferable that the whole thing is done by you. If for some reason you really, really, need to use something pre-made, ask here! and we can tell you if it's allowed or not.

Amongst the more ahem...disqualified ones, there some pretty awsome ones so make sure you do your best! It doesn't matter if you don't think you're good enough, you may well be more than good enough so submit it!

Put effort into it guys, a lot of the submissions that I looked through were just plain and simple and you can tell that there was no effort put into it. Im not saying they suck, im just saying that they were plain and simple and can be made better.

Wow, we went from about 5 entries to about 30 when I posted to the front page. Oh, and there are two important things to point out.

WE ARE NOT BUNGIE!

I'm sorry people, but don't send us artwork expecting Frankie to reply to you. I'm just a fan, like you, who is organizing this competition. Sorry if I didn't make that clear enough from the get-go.


*Note* If you linked to a picture that is uploaded to a website somewhere, keep in mind that there's a possibility that it won't still be uploaded there when we judge. If we can't access your picture on 1/7/06, you're out of luck.

As Excalibur explicitly pointed out, This competition is not run by Bungie

Therefore, i highly doubt bungie will hire you if you even win this competition.

Right. Also, if two people do the same thing, doesn't matter. We'll judge which one's best.

can it be 3D? like, say, a model?

Yes. As long as it's a still image and we can view it.

I hope this hasn't been asked before, but I am curious, if we have like, say, a 3D Model, could we send multiple images of it and it would be considered one entry? Or does it have to be like one final image?
