Welcome to Guilty Alice!
Previously known as the Guilty Alice Weekly Social, GA is a thing where people draw a theme, people vote, and the winner chooses the next theme.
It's a low-priority gig to keep the Art Atelier community doing stuff together. Come join us!
- But KrackoCloud, I am bad at drawing!
This is not a serious competition! It's just a thing we do to throw out drawings, fight artist's block, practice, and just have a good time in the Atelier. Guilty Alice is not supposed to be a special contest for you to throw your heart and soul into in hopes of winning and glory - the fact that it happens so often attests to that. If you really think this isn't for you, feel free to participate in voting.
Entries:
- Can I revise/replace my drawing?
Yeah, as long as it's before the deadline. Make sure it's clear that you've revised/replaced. Edited-post notes are useful. - Can I have multiple entries?
Unfortunately, you can't. If you have multiple submissions, I'll only accept the latest one. - Can I turn in something late?
No problem! If it's only a day late or something, I can put it in the entry list. Don't forget that you can ask for deadline extensions beforehand (see the Deadlines section). - As a common courtesy, please put your name somewhere on your picture. No need to be creative with it, just slap it on a corner and you're good to go.
- Please avoid Photobucket, Imageshack, and Tinypic. They load slower and some people actually have problems viewing them. Instead, Imgur is a great site. Others have also noted Puush and Minus as good ones too.
Voting
- You don't have to be an entrant to vote.
- Each voter has a maximum of three points he/she can give out - at most two to one entry, and one for another (+2 +1).
You cannot split all three points between three entries.
You may omit points voluntarily, like if you're tied (+1 +1) or you think only one person did a worthy job (+2). - Voting format:
+2 FirstPlaceEntrantHere
+1 SecondPlaceHere
Please keep your vote bolded and easily distinguishable.
Any glaringly incorrect/ambiguous votes won't be tallied. - You cannot vote for yourself.
- You can change your vote before the voting deadline.
Results
- The winner chooses the next topic. Feel free to ask others for theme ideas!
- If the theme creator wins, second place chooses instead.
- In a tie, the winner with the least previous wins gets to choose. If that's also tied, the winner with the least recent previous win gets to choose. If it's still tied, both winners will come to an agreement on the theme, or one can just concede.
Deadlines:
- Generally, 2 weeks for entries.
- If you need an entry deadline extension, just ask! Extensions happen often, so I'm pretty generous about it. Don't forget you can also opt for a late submission.
- Three days for voting.
- Two days for the winner to determine the next theme. Otherwise, the winner hands over theme-deciding to the next best entrant.
- I talk in PST.
- All deadlines end at 23:59 of the specified date. That being said, I will probably be asleep so you actually have several extra hours.
- Guilty Alice will pause between rounds if another Art Atelier event starts. Normally, we resume when the event ends.
If the event takes place in the middle of a GA round, that round will have an extension.
Guidelines:
- Themes should be at least remotely Touhou-related.
- A good theme is not too broad, but is still open for interpretation. It shouldn't stress technical skills over creativity. (Voters should also keep this in mind)
- Don't avoid voting for the previous winner just because he/she won last time. If they deserve your vote, then they deserve it!
- Sketches are fine, even great! If you're spending more than two hours on an entry, you might be trying too hard!
- A little shounen-esque battle blood is fine, but nothing overly violent or suggestive, please - even if it fits well with the theme.
- Comment on others' work, please, whether they be compliments, criticisms, or tips! Let's be a community!
If you ever have any suggestions or concerns about the rules, just post!

HELL YES THIS IS A THING IT IS HAPPENING LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN
I like the name Guilty Alice Weekly Social, it also incorporates its beginning haha guilty alice's art atelier
Rules are okay to me, the point system seems fine. I can't wait for this to start?? :v
-
I will second Pasu
MAKIN' IT HAPPEN
-
I third this :V
Rules and guidelines look good too.
-
Posting for watch.
-
Well, good responses so far, it seems :U
I'll wait for a couple more people to get into this before anything starts.
By the way, should the theme-creator be able to draw his/her own theme? It seems okay, yet kind of weird.
-
Yeah, hardly any problems with that :3
-
ROFL this topic title makes me feel guilty too :V
Now I am waiting warmly for the start
-
YES
I AM SO READY
-
Sure, I'm up for this. It'll give me reason to upload more often :V
-
Well, at this point, we might as well start, because this seems like a good starting amount of interested people.
I'll set things off I guess - Everyone ready?
Guilty Alice Week 1!
Contemporary Final Boss
Draw any Touhou final boss(es) in modern clothes/fashion. (No catfish)
If you're like me, your fashion sense isn't too amazing. For inspiration, try going on Safebooru and searching "contemporary" or "casual." That's the kind of feel we're going for.
Remember, things are open to interpretation. You don't need to just draw them standing around!
Because this is just starting out, the deadline will be on Monday, Feb 25. Extra day in case others haven't seen this yet.
-
If people are going to vote in the thread, it's probably going to clutter up the thread. Minor concern really.
And I'll maybe join in when there's a theme I can properly do.Themes should be at least remotely Touhou-related.
I honestly can't remember the last time I drew something Touhou-related.
-
If anyone needs any fashion resources:

once upon a time i drew a lot of touhous in "winter wear" but didnt upload it to motk i hope this counts (http://puu.sh/28dEz)
-
Cant even see the outfit, actually cant even see anything at all due to ink spill.png (http://i.imgur.com/3QbXFmb.jpg)
check latest post for newest entry
-
This doesn't count because this picture is 2 years old and Yuka isn't a final boss, but it's certainly on topic:
http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/usc4.jpg (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/usc4.jpg)
USC = "University of Southern California" (aka Trojans). At USC, there is actually a distinguished lecturer named "Yuka Kumagai" at the Dornsife College of Letters.
-
Yuka isn't a final boss
Oriental Demon
Yuuka Kazami
Stage 5 Boss, Final Boss
I know who I'm going to draw... to try to draw... T.T
-
Hohoho double fail here, first I took a fast look at one of the reference links and thought "this outfit should suit well with Sakuya". After drawing it with some failures I noticed that Sakuya isn't a last boss :V
So I am disqualified XD Anyway here is the drawing because I don't have time to draw other pic until the deadline, the next time I'll read better the instructions and buy a correction fluid :P
(http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/6821/gianthandsplz.jpg)
-
I don't have time to draw other pic until the deadline
Eh?
the deadline will be on Monday, Feb 25
EH?!
on 24-02-2013, 12:58:40
WA-WA-WAIT aren't we supposed to have a week for drawing?! :o
-
We were. We still are...
I looked at the wrong week. I'm sorry everyone ;_;
Since it seems almost everyone has posted something, the deadline will be on Fri, March 1.
If you have the time, try drawing something new instead of using an older picture! Remember that this game is meant to keep us drawing! Otherwise don't worry about it.
Again, sorry guys <:/

Leave it to KrackoCloud to mess things up on Week 1 <:U
-
Well, better to have errors happen early on so you can fix them early too, right? =D
Anyway, my submission: I'm somewhat happy with this, so I'll put it here. (http://i.imgur.com/vMG2QRw.jpg)

Yeeesssssss.
This is wonderful for so many reasons.
-
The result of being up for 24+ hours before drawing and the original same-day deadline prompted a nearly-asleep response that, after snoozing for a bit, can easily be seen as not one's finest moment. The colour was added hastily shortly afterward to clarify things somewhat. (http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/irasuto/guilty_alice_w1s1_zps2e19f045.png)
asdf (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16868865/conmiko.png)
Fantastic!
-
If Yuka qualifies as a final boss and the deadline isn't yesterday, I guess I can draw something specifically for this week. Same theme as the first picture, for consistency.
http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/uscyuka2.jpg (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/uscyuka2.jpg)
Although I have to admit that anyone who isn't Venappo is competing for second place at this point.

No one knows modern fashion better than the fantabulous Lady Yuyu (http://i.imgur.com/5O9cQ98l.png)
Keeps up with all the latest trendskk the meat dress was not silly enough

Well I finally found time to draw something. (http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/057/c/b/contemporary_yuyuko_by_krackocloud-d5wcgpr.png)
She's sketchy and not quite as fashionable as some other submissions, but what's done is done.
Still hoping for more people to draw PC-98 bosses.
Although I have to admit that anyone who isn't Venappo is competing for second place at this point.
Pretty much :Y

Considering timezones, I think you should be fine.
If truly need be, you can have an extra day. Voting may start without you, though. Although it's fine for people to change their votes, it would probably be in better taste for you to get that drawing in asap anyway.
Same goes for anyone else who wants an extension this week.
-
(trying to finish it asap :ohdear:
-
Might as well round up the submissions while I'm at it.
This is a very simple, kind of sloppy-looking list, but I can't think of a better way to organize this. If you have an idea, please tell me!

If I forgot you, or a link is wrong, holler!
Also I am bad at names (yes even on the internet). If you prefer to go by something else, let me know.
And while I'm at this, here's how I'm envisioning the voting format.
+2 HakureiReimu
+1 TheChenster
Hey ReisenBran! Your Kaguya was pretty cool too. You might want to lower her eyes a little, but besides that, you're definitely improving.
KurenaiMisuzu, if Namazu was allowed, you'd get +2 from me :V That is the most dapper catfish I've ever seen.
Votes should be bold and kept separate from all other comments. Comments should try to stay together.
Any objections or suggestions?
-
Aaaa, trying to do another one to replace the current atrocity!
Did one already but it too has problems....
Also going simply as EP will do.
-
*waves hands* Forgot someone~!
-
Thanks for the heads-up. :U
-
Any objections or suggestions?
If you weren't going to do so already, its probably a good idea to keep the list of current entries in the OP. Might keep things a bit more organized.
Probably won't have enough time to make and entry this week. :derp:
-
You forgot me!
-
Your link wasn't obvious enough! I also missed it first time :V
-
What in the world, that was a link?!
I was wondering why your post was so redundant.
If you weren't going to do so already, its probably a good idea to keep the list of current entries in the OP. Might keep things a bit more organized.
Good idea. I'll just link to the post with all the entries this time.
-
not done yet but meh
(http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z2/freeze-ex/comtemparycopy2.png)
-
I think it would be a great idea to store all the entries on your own server (say, drop box) and link them on the first post to store them
for austerity like a form of record 'w '
-
You might want to consider a rule that states the winner of the previous round can't win the one they pick the theme for (although obviously they can still draw for it) just to prevent potentially massive win streaks that could suck the fun out of the competition.
-

Would that be okay? It feels weird to store drawings that aren't mine, esp. if someone isn't happy with their drawing :U

Great idea!
By the way everyone, voting should begin soon, maybe a few hours or so.
Pasu, get that entry in or we'll start without you! (Which like I said is okay but a bit of a hassle)
-
I wonder if I could make a special server on my machine for the contest.
Hm... thinking seriously, that might get around 2-4 weeks until basic functionality (img upload/vote) is done. Actually, it is possible to do it in a day, but I'll probably be as lazy as always and spend lots of time just elephanting around. :V
I probably need a heavy punch to start drawing instead of doing mostly useless projects. ._.
-
Oh, erm, hi everyone! I've been lurking this place for long enough, and it's about time I posted something, so, if it's not too late to submit something, I have this (http://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y408/NKBound/escanear0001_zps0f0fb562.png).
-
You're fine, Bound. We're all still waiting for Pasu anyway... Pasu where are you?? <:U

Just draw! It feels kind of weird for a simple game like this to have its own server anyway... Maybe if this becomes a really big thing in the future :U

Whilst we wait for Pasu to come in I went and made a hasty draft for this. (http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/hatafries_zpsb866ad61.png)
Had another completed work (will probably upload as part of batch sketch dump later) for this, but noticed quite a lot of flaws in it after IceFireBolt and I were discussing my first submission here. But hey, that's just how we learn. :V

AAAHHHHHHH IT'S TIIIIIIIIME TO VOOOOOOOOOTE
+2 Venappo
+1 Kinoko
I'm sure +2 rank will be an easy choice for most people.
Venappo: How can I not +2? Miko just looks too cool. I love how you put her name at bottom. And then you draw a whale tree and blow it all off like the drawing's no big deal?! Crazy.
I really did struggle with my +1 vote though. I also had KazeSenshi and Freeze-Ex in mind.
Kinoko: Your drawing admittedly seemed a little dull at first, but the more I looked at it the more I appreciated the attitude Utsuho's outfit exuded. It feels very modern Asian girl! I like it a lot now.
Desu_Cake: You may want to consider drawing more than just a head. We're talking about fashion! You can't really draw fashion without drawing most of the body..
Bound: I'm glad you made it in time, actually. I'm looking forward to seeing your future drawings! Your style is a lot more Western than the animu we usually see around here, so I admit it may take some getting used to, but otherwise I can find almost nothing wrong with your picture. The only thing I might suggest is to make Kaguya's face a little more feminine maybe.
Don't feel too bad Pasu :U In the end it's only one day - seriously doubt this will be the only time we ever extend deadlines too.
Voting ends Tues, March 5.
-
+2 Krackocloud
+1 Sixten
Love in first sight with casual Yuyuko, I just, really really like the fresh feeling she gave!
As for second place I was torn between Vyrien's and Sixten's yuukas because holy hot damn but I chose Sixten's windows era Yuuka in the end because it was more relevant to me (I wear clothes like that :L )
-
+2 Venappo
+1 Vyrien
Venappo's an obvious one. The crisp, edgy look, combined with the relatively flat shading, contribute towards quite a grooving sense. That would definitely fit well towards the audiophile Miko design!
I like Vyrien's choice of design for Yuka. She looks as if she's in a biker gang. Good attention to shading and texture as well.
Brief commentary and critique time for the rest:
- Jq1790 - simple and effective. Maybe a bit too simple though - some more details would be good. Yukkuri sun's a bit silly.
- Sixten - I like Yuka's heavy outlines and crisp appearance. I kinda think that a tracksuit and hoodie don't match up with a parasol however - a sunflower field background would be a better fit in both character and background.
- Merp - they look ready for business. Yuyuko seems a tad muddy to read, alas.
- KrackoCloud - simple and effective. Methinks a lighter blue for the shirt would fit better, acting as intermediate between black jacket and white dress.
- MW - lovely detailed outline. It resembles neo-Renaissance outfits to me for some reason, but hey, that could very well be the next new thing! :V
- KazeSenshi - good technical improvements. I like the head and face. Just going to point out one thing here (others can come over time) - the buttons are on the wrong side. :P
- Formless - simple and effective once again. More variety in the lines couldn't hurt, though. :P
- kinoko - Good apparel, especially the pants! There is something about the face that offsets me though....
- Desu_Cake - Thought it was Ichirin until I saw the filename. Looks okay but it isn't seeming too contemporary.
- Freeze-Ex - Looks fantastic already - would love to see a finalised version.
- Bound - interesting style - somehow reminds me of Don Bluth and Disney animations (Minoriko Mulan perhaps? :V). Forehead's a tad crushed though - rule of thumb, eyes should be at the halfway mark of the head's height. Thematically I'm not too sure how well it ties in with this.
- Pasu - Pasuhead shirts galore! Fairly simple and effective....but since when was Remi a crow tengu? :getdown:
-
+2 Sixten
+1 Venappo
Sixten: simple, refreshing, casual look really captivates me for some reason. Crisp, and I like it! sometimes details doesn't mean everything, and this drawing made me realize that that
Venappo: impressive design skills, as usual. gj
-
+2 Venappo
+1 Pasu
Venappo's is an obvious choice, the little details really make it for me and Miko is very stylistically striking, most excellent.
Pasu, better late than never. :V This one I really like. I think it's the long shirt and tights, I fucking love long shirts and tights.
-
+2 Formless Void
+1 Pasu
BTW, who is the one by Void? :V
-
Tenshi
-
+2 Vyrien
+1 Freeze-Ex
- Desu_Cake - Thought it was Ichirin until I saw the filename. Looks okay but it isn't seeming too contemporary.
I guess the 70's just don't count as contemporary any more. :V
-
Pasu+2
Kinoko+1
Pasu:
Loli+one piece undershirt+stripes stocking = less is MOE
wins the game :getdown:
something about the simple coloring and the emotion attracts me
and dat wing
glad pasu made it
need moar MOE :getdown:
Kinoko:
Jesus! space dimension pant!
not only it's contemporary
but it's also remain the character's identity
creativity win!
fix: oopz sry I got the wrong name |//O>
-
This was hard ;-;
+2 V-v-v-vento
+1 Vyrien
Toyo doesn't get any cooler than that.
Neither does Yuuka, for that matter. Added bonus: I'd totally want her number, because damn.
Special mention to Formless and Freeze, I hard a hard time choosing between these 4 :|
-
+1 Pasu- Them leggings.
+1 Sixten- Cute! please tell me you don't actually wear sweats outside though
-
+2 Venappo: The fact that Miko looks somewhat boyish really works here. "He" is the "prince" after all. Very cool and very well drawn.
+1 Freeze-Ex: Technique-wise, the best drawn of all the pictures here. Also the clothes are fitting.
Edit: Bold text
-
+1 6-10
+1 venappo
sexy scarf text
-
+2 Venappo
+1 Void
-
+2 Venappo: I think I can't say anything that hasn't been said already, that's one amazing Miko right there. The style couldn't be more fitting, and I really, really like how crisp it looks.
+1 Merp: Gushing about your style aside, Youmu always looks good on sunglasses and a jacket, and I also have to say the Yuyu Gaga drawing was genius.
-
+1 Venappo because scarves
+1 Kinoko I love those pants :V
-
Tenshi
Er, is this a vote? ',:U
+1 Venappo because scarves
+1 Kinoko I love those pants :V
+1 jq butterfly bracelet adds a nice touch
Unfortunately, you cannot vote for more than two entries.
Anyone with an incorrect or glaringly ambiguous vote will not have their vote tallied until it's corrected.
I'll go ahead and add this:
Please read and reread the rules, everybody! They do get updated.
That being said, from now on I'll notify you of important OP revisions.
EDIT: Wow, I said that and immediately forgot to mention it. I am bad game host <:U
The rules have been updated to reflect what I've said earlier in this post, just for clarification.
Voting format has been revised to be more lenient.

This is beautiful. Thank you so much.
I sent a test form, but unfortunately I actually have no idea how these work, tbh. How do the votes get sorted? Do you read them?
No, I was responding to Delfigamer, I made my vote 2 posts above
oh ok :V
--
Kinoko made an online voting form! (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1hwiVtBPVMnHZPRZj1JcugfIMUUsKn24hSZ2VDuWQG7I/viewform)
Feel free to either vote here, on the form, or both. It's kind of sudden, so don't feel obligated to use it.
However, in future rounds, this form may become our standard method of voting.
Sorry for so many updates, guys. As our first round, I'm still testing the waters - Bear with me, everyone!
-
+2 venappo
+1 Vyrien
Why venappo? The little details...often you can show how much thought's put into something by the details you add.
Why Vyrien? I know little of Yu(u)ka, but she seems like someone who's definitely a little rough around the edges, but without being completely out there(unlike fanon-Yuuka who's super sadistic), and I think this outfit really captured that.
Notes to others:
-EP: It seemed a little on the generic side...not that that's necessarily BAD, per se, but it seemed like one coulda put a lot of characters in those clothes. nothing really struck me as definitively Hatate from it.
-Sixten: Again, seemed to lack a real connection to Yuuka here, outside of the whole fanon thing with the "USC". Still cute though.
-merp: I might just be fashionably uninformed, but this really doesn't scream 'contemporary to me. Makes me think of some sort of combo of formal mob stuff from older movies and something like the 70s(I think it's 70s, I dunno) idea of 'delinquents'...Apologies if maybe i'm seeing stuff that's not there or something.
-KrackoCloud: Less plain than my Yuyu, but still felt like it could have done more somehow...I dunno.
-MW: A close contender for my +1, I liked the little bits here and there, and it shows her immature side a bit, with it being somewhat gaudy-ish. Also, was the little crystal/kunai thing supposed to be a nod to her little sister?
-Kaze_Senshi: I liked the jacket a lot, but it seems like there coulda been more to the dress.
-Formless Void: Nicely made, but feels a little uninspired due to being so close to her actual outfit.
-kinoko: Another contender for my +1, I really loved those pants. I think what got me was expecting her yatagarasu eye to still be visible, but I dunno. The rest of it was nice and felt very Okuu-ish to me though.
-Desu_Cake: Not enough really visible, plus it seems a little too hoodlum-ish to really feel like Kanako under there.
-Freeze-Ex: This just feels like it's lacking something to clearly tie it to Remilia...though it certaainly looks expensive enough for someone who owns a mansion!
-Bound: This might just be me being blind, but to be sure...this's Kaguya, correct? Anyway, under that assumption, it seems a little flashy for someone who (at least to me, but I might be misinterpreting) feels a little more reserved or something. Cute hat though.
-pasu: Cute, but feels a bit plain, even though it's quite obvious the clothes couldn't really belong to anyone else. Well, the shirt anyway.
Everyone: Please do not take any offense from my comments- they're not meant to be rude and I apologize if they are. I was just giving my thoughts on how they did or didn't fulfill the requirement of the theme for this time around, and I'm fully aware I might be entirely wrong about anything I've said here, so keep that in mind as well! Good luck to everyone!

-EP: It seemed a little on the generic side...not that that's necessarily BAD, per se, but it seemed like one coulda put a lot of characters in those clothes. nothing really struck me as definitively Hatate from it.
Yeah, I was aware of that. Wasn't really focusing too much on custom-design attire that really complements specific character, plus the illustration was meant to be quick and dirty.
-
The amount of votes has already reached the amount of submissions - should we shorten the deadline?
-
Why? How is the amount of submissions tied to the ammount of votes?
One should expect a lot more people voting than submitting.
-
Why? How is the amount of submissions tied to the ammount of votes?
One should expect a lot more people voting than submitting.
Amount of votes = amount of entries is the minimum for moving on, but I'm wondering if generally that's also adequate enough for votes. We can give one more day for others chime in.
But I guess it would be better after all to make a judgment on this after a few games first.
-
Oh, you meant the voting deadline. I got it wrong there.
I think it's fine as is, it's just until tomorrow.
-
Well, deadlines are inclusive.
... I should mention that.
-
+2 Vyrien
+1 Kinoko
+2 Vyrien because I think that outfit suits well with Yuuka's personality, also it looks pretty good.
+1 Kinoko because she looks pretty modern and that pants are cool :O
-
Today is the last day to get votes in!
-
+1 Sixten
+1 Vyrien
Sixten's Yuuka because I like how it matches, yet it's simple.
Vyrien's Yuuka because the biker jacket just fits well with S Yuuka.
Is it just me or did I just vote for the Yuukas? It's a coincidence I swear, lol.
I almost voted for Formless Void's Tenshi, but I couldn't really see too much of her clothes to make a proper judgement about it. (She's turned sideways)
-
+2 Venappo
+1 MW
Was torn between MW and Freeze-Ex for the +1 spot but ended up going with MW as I feel like this image shows the fashion more, even though I guess it doesn't actually look all the modern, and in Freeze-Ex's drawing you can't really see that much of the clothing.
Venappo for +2 cuz wow the colors and style and everything is just really cool and it gives me kind of a TWEWY vibe??? I dunno it's really cool.
-
The entries are excellent it has been a really tough decision but I have decided to give my vote to:
+1 Freeze-EX - Glasses are cheating ;-; No seriously, awesome Remi despite unfinished
+1 Vyrien - Are you a fashion designer?
-
I'll be tallying soon. Please don't edit your votes anymore!
If anyone still wants to vote, now's the time to do it! I'll probably be back in like an hour or something.
-
Well, that's a wrap! Week 1 has ended!
Greaaat job everybody!! So happy this managed to take off - a whopping 15 entries on the first week! I expected, like, half that number at most!
Thanks to everyone who made this a thing! Thanks for bearing with my bad game hosting too :'U
But enough of me gushing, let's get to the results:
*Guilty Alice Week 1 Results!*
The second place goes to...
Vyrien
With 9 points! Great job on that Yuuka!
And the first place goes to...
Venappo
Was it really any surprise? Venappo took the game by storm with a mind-blowing 21 points!
Congratulations to you two and to everyone!
And so! You guys should all know how it runs from here - Venappo, you have two days to create the next round's theme!
I'm sure you've got something in mind, but if you really can't think of anything just ask everybody for ideas. :U
In other news, this next round we'll start using the online form method for voting. Please continue to comment on others' work, though! Might as well say who you voted for anyway, too.
Also, Venappo, when you declare the theme, you may as well make it centered, big, and bold.
-
congraz to da winner~
Venappo did a great job
can't wait till the next theme~
hope it gonna be fun |OwO>

Congratz Vento!

Congratz Bentou and thank you Kracko for hosting the event :)

@ Jam-Kiske : you're the second person to mention TWEWY... tho ive never played the game (much)
wtf i thought i would lose but uhm-
thanks to the voters uwu
mw is that a kamen rider joke
ok so um:
touhou player characters in a fire emblem (: awakening) (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Fire_Emblem:_Awakening) setting; ( player characters include PoFV and those from the fighter games ) for those who are still kinda clueless its basically a medival x fantasy thing... yeah
i hope i didnt scrrrew this up
-
Just making sure, but we really need to use Awakening? Haven't played any of the FE games beyond SS, mostly due to lack of system.
-
Oh wow, I think I've only played anything Fire Emblem-related for a couple hours in my entire life. I hope it's fine if I take the obvious way out and just slap Marth's clothes onto someone :ohdear:
also this site's captchas are something else
-
The character designs of FE Awakening are generally not too different from the rest of the franchise. I think it would be useful for all of us to explore the wiki though to get a better feel for the designs.
Week 2: Fire Emblem
Draw any playable Touhou(s) in a Fire Emblem setting.
Deadline: Wed, March 13
How does that sound? Unless it's important that it's Awakening... I wouldn't really know because I don't have it ;_;
-
Awakening's only for people who have had no prior experience with FE since the characters from Awakening have full body portraits and thus references...then again, so do the rest of the games pffft yeah any game from the series should be fine
-
Just making sure, but we really need to use Awakening? Haven't played any of the FE games beyond SS, mostly due to lack of system.
Ohno any series is fine i just put "awakening" cause pasu told me what ever she said above huehue
personally i think sachiko wada's designs are better than awakening, cause who the hell pays respect to a mercenary looking lord
I love...sacred stones...
-
I have no idea what this game is, so Ill wait for someone to enter first to get the idea
-
i posted a link to the wiki to get your bearings, working on my entry now tho just in case
-
So according to the OP, it looks like it's okay to post a WIP. Just throwing this sketch (http://s1273.beta.photobucket.com/user/NKBound/media/FEtenko0001_zps24ced6f5.jpg.html) out there to remind the indecisive peeps to participate and have some fun with this!

http://puu.sh/2edkZ
i am almost doneeeeeeeeeee
-
Not sure if I'll be able to finish this (http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/7169/sakuyah.png), so posting what I have.
-
Note: I have no knowledge of Fire Emblem. I just took a costume from the wiki at random and put Shizuha in it.
Edit: Oh I just forgot, Shizuha's not a player character... Well that sucks. I'll pay closer attention next time.
Edit 2: Photoshop-hacked the Shizuha into a Reimu (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/lunasa/reimu_archer.jpg).
-
Well I don't know this game too so I did one drawing based on this pic (http://www.scootys.com/easy_capture/images/Fire-Emblem-Titania.jpg)

Here's some sweet jams from the latest FE game (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVYMFNpCT_k)
Here's a Medi as my submission (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/66775711/relevant/mmmmmmmmmmmmedi.png)
Her outfit's basically a mix of Tharja (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Tharja) (who's getting a figurine made of her by max factory thank you based max factory) and Henry (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Henry), whose character is slightly similar to Medi (read up their wiki articles if you want to know why)
I chose her to be a dark mage because her poison can be seen as a negative form of sciencemagic; also Su-san is supposed to be a parody of the crows that follow Henry and this (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Entombed)
Oh yeah and the little head thing at the bottom is supposed to be this, which appears if you hover over your character, showing the hp (http://www.feplanet.net/sprites-archive-character-chibis/8)
@kaze_senshi she has low hp because mages have low hp! At least dark mages have high defenses huehue

I kind of tried to emulate the Awakening style...

Oh, darn. I still have to give mine the finishing touches, but I have an exam tomorrow and I'm not done studying quite yet. I'll do what I can to get it done ASAP.

I think we can wait till tomorrow so you can finish, right? You focus on that exam for now :V

Playing without focus looks cooler :V

Right then. One more day!

'Tis only a draft, but considering two failed attempts over the past two days this will do. (http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/irasuto/tiltiku_zpsba033415.png)
Combination of Iku with Tailto/Tiltyu from FE4 (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Tailto) (which is my favourite of the games that I've played). Ribbon is a custom addition meant to reference Iku's old hat. Considering the Thunder Mage role + the pose, I think it fits. Now to work on the possible romantic pairings and children's inherited items and skills for second-gen chars....>:D

That being said,
+2 Pasu
+1 Desu_Cake
Bound: Tenshi has blue hair like so many FE protags, so of course it would work out :V
Desu_Cake, I find your outfit astoundingly plausible. It's really great! However, Sakuya's hands and feet are really small, and her eyes seem off.
KazeSenshi: The drawing itself is not bad, but although it shouldn't be hard to imagine an axe-wielding Marisa, her pleasant smile kind of ruins the character :U
EP: I have a kind of hard time seeing Iku. However, the design is very fitting. I think a little color could've gone a long way.
Kinoko: It looked like it could've been really great! I'm sorry the deadlines forced you to end prematurely.
Pasu, I really don't have much to say. Your Medicine just works. Just like that. Great job!
-
+2 Vento
+1 Sixten
Bound: The face is pretty jarring.
Kracko: b-but korra's a terrible character

u sure i can enter?

-
+2 Pasu
+1 Merp
-Pasu: I love the profile look you went for, not only does it allow us to see the character in her entirety, but also adds to the sense of her being part of a game, also that Pasuhead su-san.
-Merp: I had a really difficult time choosing between this and Freeze-ex's submission, in the end I opted for yours because a) I can see more of the character and therefore the costume and b) that evil smile looks really great.
-

+9999
-
+2 Merp
+1 Freeze-ex
merpo - one thing about FE is that all the characters are designed to have a signature face and look and sanae is deliciously evil also best match up l'archel is just perf match for sanae she even has green hair
freeze - THANKS FOR MAKING ME REMEMBER THAT SCENE ALL OVER AGAIN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
kinoko - idk why i like your alice's outfit particularly maybe it's because I have a soft spot for traditional watercolour <_<
-
+2 Pasu
oh god that su-san
+1 Freeze
This whole scene hurts my soul aaaaaaaaaaaa
-
+2 Pasu
+1 Freeze-Ex
Very fitting design on that Medi, I think. Easily resembles the dark magic faction boss type. The HUD is a nice touch too.
Freeze-Ex: I like the very different approach you took to this theme. I really love the details in colouring too. But considering it seems to be a reference to a major event in game, a spoiler warning could've helped.
- Bound: I like the light adjustments made. Methinks the sword could be longer, face needs redoing, and the thighs could be slightly thinner too. Then we have a good Mercenary/Hero type! :V
- Desu_Cake: A very fitting outfit. I can see her as an Assassin-type char. Small hands much?
- Sixten: Archer Reimu, I can see that happening. Interesting colour shading and usage. Bow seems a bit small I think, comparing it to the reference design.
- KazeSenshi: Axe-wielding Marisa? Unless she was a mounted axe knight it's a little peculiar methinks. While I like the armour, the facial expression doesn't seem to fit.
- Vento: Couldn't really tell it was Tenshi until I noticed the filename. Good lines; however, the colour detail on the sword compared to Tenshi draws attention towards the former. Unless that was what you were intending, of course.
- KrackoCloud: Simple and effective. Great adaptation of Reimu's design into FE attire, but I notice that her left hand has 4 fingers and the thighs seem a tad thick.
- Merp: Priest Sanae? Looks nice. Good use of lines and strokes as always, though a few seemed unclear at first.
- Piney: I like Alice's design, and think it fits great. Image has quite a bit of potential.
EP: I have a kind of hard time seeing Iku. However, the design is very fitting. I think a little color could've gone a long way.
Understandably. A little more time and I would've added colour and cleaned up a few parts.
The deadline is Thursday. At least in my time zone, it's still Thursday. So you're okay :U
GMT-8/PST I presume? I see...well damn, rushed it assuming deadline was for GMT-5/EST (my timezone).
Might I suggest adding timezone to the deadlines so we get a better idea when our things are due?
-
Might I suggest adding timezone to the deadlines so we get a better idea when our things are due?
Yeah, considering the deadline stress that seems to be popping up, it might actually be better to give people a definitive time.
Maybe not for voting though. Usually people vote pretty fast.
EDIT:
Rules updated for late submissions.
-
+2 Pasu
+1 Freeze-Ex
Pasu: Her pose looks pretty cool, good job with the hands;
Freeze-EX: Dat Shinki looks awesome, the world needs a full-body Shinki drawing :V
PS: Next time I'll draw Marisa using a helmet to cover her smile :P
-
+2 KrackoCloud
+1 kinoko
KrackoCloud: The simplicity of the design was really appealing to me. Reimu really fits that look.
kinoko: Alice looks nice in anything, couldn't resist a vote.
Other comments:
Merp: I like the usual chaotic effect, but couldn't really tell what was going on with the design. Might just be me.
Freeze-Ex: Amazing, but couldn't see enough of the design to make a good judgement about it. That Thank You is just high octane moe fuel.
EP: Couldn't really see an Iku there.
Vento: I swear you make everyone you draw into テライケメンs
Pasu: Really nice, and I was stuck between this or kinoko's Alice. Liked the HUD
Sixten: Looks nice, but I thought just recolouring from the reference pic was a bit uninspired.
-
+2 Freeze
+1 Pasu
Vento, finish your things :V

+2 Freeze
+1 Pasu
Because of my lack of Fire Emblem knowledge, I just gave my votes to what I thought were the best looking ones. Freeze's storyboard is gorgeous and looks like it could be in an actual game, particularly the background in the last frame. Pasu's Medi also looks great, although something bugs me about her hidden right shoulder.
Kinoko's and Vento's also look great. Vento, however, is under the effect of the "no winning streaks" rule and Kinoko narrowly missed the cut for looking unfinished.
-
+2 Freeze
+1 KrackoCloud
I swear my jaw dropped when I saw that. I always wondered from your art thread how long it usually takes you to draw something of this quality, because you're totally my favourite artist in this place (and that's saying a lot!). As for Kracko's design, I'm just a sucker for clear and crisp drawings -- if anything, what's missing is Reimu being overdressed like most of the sources I've checked :derp:
As for the runner-ups, Pasu and Sixten are, as usual, out to HNNNNNG everybody just by existing and doing a really good job at it. Merp is still doing a great job, but I felt the style was slightly out of place for Fire Emblem (from my limited knowledge on the series), and Vento, I totally would've voted for if their drawing was finished, because do you guys know what this competition needed? A well-drawn Tenshi :V
-
+2 Vento
+1 Freeze
Even though it's not finished, I absolutely love that Tenshi.
And do I really need to explain my vote for Freeze?
-
Just a reminder to everyone to use the voting form!
Yes I can take into account your vote here manually, but the voting form makes my life a little easier :'U
-
Okay okay, I sent my vote using the voting form, please
count my vote 2 times ignore my manual vote
-
And so the second week has ended...
Guilty Alice Week 2 Results!
And the winner is...
Pasu!
With Freeze-Ex at a very close second!
Congratulations Pasu and Freeze! You both did wonderfully.
Pasu, you have until the end of March 19 to come up with a new theme!
Now, I'd like to ask everyone for their opinion on the voting format. How do you feel about the voting form? Would you rather just stick with posts, since you're posting anyway? Or do you feel that the form makes things more streamlined?
Right now it really could work either way, so it's up to what you guys prefer most.

Guilty Alice Weekly Social Week 3: Touhous in Sailor Suits + flowers of your choice
moe is the priority, go
a single flower / a bouquet of roses wouldnt be different i just want flowers in the pic
-
With this theme I'm sure we'll get a few too many Yuka and Medicine submissions. :V
-
By "Sailor Suits" you mean "the sailor-style Japanese girls' school uniform", right? I'm going to do Cirno and Suwako in Kamichu school uniforms with a lily pad and lotus flower. Stop me if this doesn't meet the criteria.
It's a good thing that winning streaks aren't allowed, because when moe is the priority, Pasu runs away with the win. This way, everyone else on the forums has a chance.

You just wanted Medi, didn't you?

Week 3: Sailor Suits & Flowers
"Moe is the priority." Any type/amount of flowers works.
Entry Deadline: Mon, March 25 (23:59 PST)
Vote Deadline: Thur, March 21
I use PST not only because it's easy for me, but if I'm thinking this through correctly, it gives more time to other people.
Also, I will probably be asleep so you guys actually have like 8 extra hours grace period or something :U
Reminder: Please voice out on if you prefer to vote with the form or just in posts!

Using the Moe Field Spellcard Pasu gets +300 points of attack :o

dangit this week's theme couldn't be further away from my style how does one flowers (http://s1273.photobucket.com/user/NKBound/media/sailorkappa0001_zps0bc0eff0.jpg.html) (WIP)
Reminder: Please voice out on if you prefer to vote with the form or just in posts!
I'd prefer voting with posts, if only because that lets us give and receive feedback, which is always useful IMO.

Haha, I just stumbled on this thread, and I think it's an amazing idea. I can't draw at ALL, so I'm mostly just posting here to get the posting warnings, so I can vote as well ^^;

Here the drawings are themed and sometimes you can believe that it's too hard for you or that it does not focus with the problem that you are having, so you can use too the "Post Your Artwork" to post your drawings, sometimes I post some random heads there to get tips about how to fix it :P

Might have been better if i did my original idea (http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/irasuto/popasa_zpsceebbc2e.png) instead. Bonus points if you get the reference. :P

Don't forget Sailor-fukus and the flowers
Looking some "Moe" images on google and some Pasu pics I tried to do a small and cute moe Touhou :V
There is no need for Lily White to bring flowers, go Myon!! (http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/3356/myonbringingflowers.jpg)

I think what Prime was trying to say is that since Captain Murasa is a sailor and Byakuren ("white lotus") is a flower, they fulfill the requirements.

The pasu is the standard unit of measure for moe, with one pasu defined as the amount of moe it takes to HNNNNNG any person regardless of his/her prior exposure to moe. Like the volt, watt, and ampere, the pasu is named for a famous scientist: Pasu of shrinemaiden.org, who regularly formulates pictures containing roughly 1 pasu each. A kilopasu is considered dangerous to health, and a terapasu (never observed by any scientific instrument as of today) is believed to be sufficient to collapse the universe into a moe singularity.
My entry for this week is rated at 200 millipasu (0.2 or 1/5 pasu) and is safe for human consumption.
The number of errors in the picture nearly gave me a heart attack though.
Anyway, here it is (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/frogot.jpg). It's based on The Learning Pad (http://www.thelearningpad.net/tour.html) in Port Washington, Wisconsin (USA).

I wonder if derp shall be measured in delfis then. :V
With this theme I'm sure we'll get a few too many Yuka and Medicine submissions. :V
Sure, hah. :V
Even me, I tried to draw Akyuu (but failed, as you may see), not them.
Anyway, I want to see a sailor&flower moe from Pasu herself, even if she don't participate. I sure (sure!) others want it too. :3

Though come to think of it, might be too similar to KazeSenshi's entry. Started it before being made aware of his submission, but even so. May make another attempt....

Welp. (http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/084/c/2/kyoukoargh_by_krackocloud-d5z9zi5.png)
Moe is a horror to draw.
I basically did this sketchy drawing in two sittings today, after giving up on trying to draw a moe Ichirin. It's supposed to be easy but, as many of you can testify, it sure ain't!
By the way, I think we'll be going back to the old voting system. Since people will be commenting on others' drawings anyway, we might as well use those same posts to vote and forget about the form.
If you have any objections, raise them!
Rules revised to reflect the old voting system.

You forgot to add "cP" at the beginning of the scale; if it wasn't "centi" we'd be already like after conducting 100A, wouldn't we? :3
A one week cooldown for winners is a good thing, otherwise Pasu would be on top until she decided that was enough.

All legitimate entries are qualified for posting. (Sorry Prime32 <:U )
If Pasu wins again, second-place gets the prize is all.
Also, I'm sure that if you just asked for "short-haired Touhou" you'd probably get a Sanae in there or somewhere.
The funny thing is that "Guilty Alice" itself wouldn't work very well as a theme either, which I think is kind of silly and sad. Something like "short-haired Sanae" would actually be quite fun to draw too, even though it's really specific.
We could loosen the guidelines to allow more specific themes, but I'm not too sure myself about this.

Remember everyone! It's back to the normal voting system!

-
+2 KrackoCloud
KrackoCloud: To me, moe is a HNNNNNGH inducing condition, and the only one that really caught that feeling for me was Kyouko's hopeful yet anxious smile. To me, her pose kind of seemed like she was going to offer flowers but couldn't extend her arms all the way, which plays with the shyness aspect.
Other comments:
The rest felt cute, but not necessarily moe to me.
-
+1 Pasu
+1 Kinoko
Pasu: Do I even need to justify my vote for this
Kinoko: Simple, but moe. Slightly forlorn, yet moe!
Merp: Ahhh if I could split my points three ways I would vote for you too! Despite the slight yanderishness, Suika does look cute. Sucks being held back by your own rules :'U
EP: But where is the sailor suit? <:U Sorry, should've caught this earlier. I'll keep this in the entries anyway.
KazeSenshi: Cute, but the proportions seem ever-so-slightly off. I guess the head is a little big, even for a childish depiction of Youmu.
Vyrien: Whaletrees and Yuukas... And that coloring! It's stunning.
-
There we go (http://i.imgur.com/1oecRI3.png) :getdown:

+1 Pasu would give you +2 if u could win again because 10/pasu will waifu

redbull
That's what it was!
BTW I like yandere, and it is good Suika. :3
-
+1 Vyrien
+1 Merp
satoriv- loli lolisu.. +moe points plus good colour palette (i particularly liked the torii on the left it gave a nice splash of exciting RED MY FAVOURITE COLOUR) also + moe points because my otp
parseem- forever loving your suikas (and their redbull) maybe if you gave suika 1001 reflections in her eyes like doki doki she would look like yandere (too uguu for me though)
special mention to kaze senshi and EP because happy (+moe) loli (+moe) youmu is VERY HNNNNNNGHHH
-
+2 KrackoCloud
+1 KazeSenshi
Kracko: Dear GOD that is one adorable Kyouko. Everything about is moe; The outfit, Kyouko, the expression, Kyouko, the ears, Kyouko...
KazeSenshi: MyonDog still remains adorable to me. I wish I had a MyonDog. (It could ward away the summer heat~!)
All the rest was great as well!
Damn it, now I kinda want to try to draw too.
-
+2 Pasu: It is manifestly unfair that Pasu can generate more moe in 4 hours than I can in 14, but that's why the unit of moe is named after Pasu. I would curl the fingers on the visible hand a little more, and show the other arm, but other than that the back-lighting and coloring make this look really good. The sign of mastery is making it look easy, and Pasu makes it look easy.
+1 Kinoko: This also looks good, and also looks like it took no time at all, so I don't know what you needed the extension for. The pose and composition are very nice. I am eager to see what you can do if you take the time to polish something fully.
KrackoCloud has the best pose and emotion. The style is not exactly my taste, but I appreciate the skill and understand why this gets votes.
I don't really see the yandere in Merp's. It is cute.
Vyrien's coloring is nice, but there are some anatomy issues (uneven width of shoulders, even taking perspective into account).
Freeze-Ex's technical ability is greater than that of anyone else on this forum. If not for that higher priority project (as an art school graduate, I know that feeling) he could definitely challenge Pasu.
KazeSenshi's concept has great potential, but is limited by (relatively) beginner drawing skill. You're getting there though, keep it up! I drew people at about the same skill level when I got out of art school*.
*Drawing people is a severe weakness of mine; I only managed to graduate because I could draw inanimate objects well. Only in the last 3 years have I started to become decent at drawing people.

+2 Vyrien
Vyrien just went a breakthrough of moeness |OWO>
and prove herself that she is not only good at drawing dragon
but she can hnnnnnnggggg people too :o
+1 Pasu
SANNNNNNAAAEEEE so cute~ :getdown:
reminds me of her element school year outside of gensokyo
if u got suwako and kanako there would be perfect
but since it's just a character in sailor suit, it's k |OwO>/

EP: But where is the sailor suit? <:U Sorry, should've caught this earlier. I'll keep this in the entries anyway.
Didn't pay much attention to the attire at the time. Not like this image got much priority to begin with.
special mention to kaze senshi and EP because happy (+moe) loli (+moe) youmu is VERY HNNNNNNGHHH
Hehe. :V
+2 Sixten
I think the scene setup does this image the justice. Great detail, and the shading style complements things well. The hat's focus on the lilypad bowl is a nice plus.
+1 Pasu
Do I really have to say anything regarding pasu's style? :V That aside, it seems as if her right breast is non-existent.
KazeSenshi: Definitely cute and a silly use of Myon. Arms are a tad long methinks, and legs seem too tubular.
Merp: That Suika, staring into my soul.... It is cute, all right, but I usually see mo? stuff having fewer, but thicker and cleaner lines. Understandably this may not cater to your style (and it isn't for mine either :V), but it's worth consideration.
Bound: The required materials are there, but the requested style isn't quite.
KrackoCloud: Simple and effective once again. Next step, backgrounds and more complex materials!
Piney: Face and FG flower is a great setup, but the body could have gotten the same attention.
Freeze-Ex: Fits great into a mo? manga. I think the teaspoon is a tad large however...:V
Vyrien: Does well in the mo? department. Hand however seems a tad flat and the eye outline doesn't seem to match the rest of the image's colouring style - too much contrast. I will say I like the evil Yuka basket. :V
-
+2 Vyrien There's something about her, she seems creepy and cute at the same time. I like it.
+1 Freeze-Ex F-F-F-Flan! She's just so cute!
-
I'm feeling good today, so critiques ahoy
+2 Merp moe overflow
+1 kinoko because I love the concept, would like to see more, and more finished things too :V
@Sixten This is adorable, but no moe nowhere :(
@Kracko her face is all over the place mang, and the idea is way too simple, seifuku and some flowers
@Kaze that's one of the most adorably moe concepts this week, and definitely the most original. Keep at it
@Freeze unfinished lol
Special mention to Vyrien because damn <3
-
+2 Merp
+1 Sixten
I hope it's okay for me to appear out of nowhere and vote. I don't draw at all myself, but I think this thing you've got going is pretty cool.
Also, @Sixten - I don't think all of the shadows make sense in your picture. Cirno's in particular almost seems to be floating off the ground.
-
+2 Kinoko
+1 Freeze-Ex
Kinoko, this has a certain charm, could be because she looks so Melancholy. GJ and finish stuff more please!
Freeze this has great potential, it's such a pity you didn't have enough time to complete it.

Week 3: Sailor Suits & Flowers
Touhous in sailor suits. Flowers must be present.
"Moe is the priority." Any type/amount of flowers works.
Entry Deadline: Tues, March 26 (23:59 PST)
Vote Deadline: Fri, March 21
See the entries (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,14364.msg959801.html#msg959801)
Kracko the information in the first page is wrong ???
Also, @Sixten - I don't think all of the shadows make sense in your picture. Cirno's in particular almost seems to be floating off the ground.
I noticed that something was a bit strange too, but I don't know what is, for me it was looking that Suwako is bigger than Cirno
BTW my votes, this week had a lot of good pics so it was hard to choose:
+2 Merp
+1 Pasu
Merp: Cute pose, cute little suikas with cute expression, cute cosplay, so moe moe kyuun
Pasu: Always testing the limits of the pasumeters :V
And thanks for all the feedbacks about Myon-dog :)
-
Kracko the information in the first page is wrong ???
bwargh!
bwaaargh!
-
I have to admit I don't anime nowhere as much as I'd need to be able to easily create, or even detect something that could be called moe, aside from knowing it makes my kokoro go all dokidoki, but that said
+2 Sixten: It's completely freaking adorable, that's all I need to know in order to vote for this. Your style fits cute situations like this like a glove.
+1 Vyrien: The bright colors and the adorable smile, wow. I have to say I expected something less moe than this considering your art thread, but dang have I been proven wrong.
Other people: Not voting for Pasu because of last week's victory, but you'd have to have a stone-cold heart to not HNNNNNG at this. Kracko's Kyouko has the most adorable expression ever, but I feel something is off about the style, couldn't exactly pinpoint what. Finally, I feel the urge to draw a Myon-doggy myself because it's really cute, methinks.
-
All right! And with that, Week 3 ends!
This was a great round, I'd say. The votes were well-distributed and really close!
Guilty Alice Week 3 Results!
The winner is...
Merp!
With Sixten and Vyrien tied for second, both down by just one point!
Once again, great round to everyone.
Merp, you have till the end of Sunday to come up with the next theme.

T-t-t-toast unbeatable

The Imperial Gensoukyou Army
Basically any character of your choice in military outfits(with weaponry if you wish), it can be from any nation/era/real/original/sci-fi/fantasy etc..
I know this is weird coming from me, but no violence plz. Just the girl posing with her outfit is fine let's not accidentally create any hate art.
There's a pool on danbooru you can look over for inspiration: The Imperial Gensoukyou Army (http://www.donmai.us/pools/4107?page=1)
-
Im ready
-
Oh man I've been wanting to draw something for a while and I think it fits in this theme. Consider my body ready.
-
Ohhh but I like violence
Like Bound, my body is ready.
-
Merp, you just made my day. I'd have thrown out a WIP by now, but I have no access to my tablet OR my drawing pad.
-
Improvise somehow!
...this theme looks interesting.
-
All right then. Entry deadline: Sat, April 6 (23:59 PST)
Pretty sure this one's gonna be hard for me :'U
EDIT: Rules reorganized.
-
poof poof here is my humble entry (http://crowcakes.deviantart.com/art/Samurai-Yuyuko-362632584)
Looking back on what I based this off (http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2012/237/9/b/yuyuko_concept_art_by_crowcakes-d5ccu7u.png), I feel extremely mind-blown.
EDIT: Some minor tweaking to the blades. Changed it to the dA link instead of the source.
-
Well when someone talks with me about the History of Wars the first thing that comes in my head is that the Flamethrowers were widely used in the WWI, so I researched about military outfits from that time and found a cool one (http://www.ecomodelismo.com/flamethrower-operator--Ref-CITA-16001.html). According with the site description it is a Germanic flamethrower operator outfit from 1916.

uHHHHHHHHHHH I don't have much to say about it this time I just went with a prompt (thank you mr kochiya) and kinda speeded through it, it's not very obviously related to the theme, huh!!!!he ...h
flame throwers were used in wars wow also i just like medicine and gas masks
-
@Pasu: Did you intentionally draw the way Merp would draw? Because although I don't doubt at all that you did that, it does look like something Merp would draw. It does look good as always.
As for me, I haven't had access to my computer for more than a few minutes at a time because I was at Sakura-Con the whole weekend (along with Maullar and OverCoat). I had to go old-school this time and use a sketchbook.
Anyway: Dark Side of Fate (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/darkside.jpg)

I've had this ready for a couple days now but haven't gotten around to posting it because I've found myself an artistic anatomy book and I've been procrastinating on finishing it in favor of finally learning how bodies actually work :( anyways, have some Ichirin in a Middle Eastern-ish fantasy-ish ceremonial uniform. and some blatant TF2 ripoffs
Get back here, that drawing is great.
I'd like to second this. That's some really neat shading, and the pose is pretty great too.

+2 Bound
Now that is one marauding Ichirin! I could see this in a Disney or Bluth animation easily. quick someone hack Aladdin game with this Ichirin in it
On to formal criticisms: something about the body pose doesn't seem correct, probably in the abdomen or hip area.
+1 Vento
Collected and ready for action! Must be a ceremonial trooper going by the outfit and the modern weaponry.
Crow: Suave facial expression. Good outfit details as usual. There is something with the shoulder that doesn't seem right....
KazeSenshi: Fitting outfit and role. Cape changes are good too, and good work on the hand. I think the most glaring issue here would be the legs, which seem flat and too tubular.
Pasu: How Merp-like! Never expected Medi to W+M1 have a flamer.
Sixten: Neat choice of theme. Even with sketchbook I see your style remains just as good and able - in fact I'd like to see this method a bit more often.
Merp: Oh man, they really look ready for business!
Necrotastic: Newcomer, and with good start! Focusing first on Sanae - as this is not a formal art critique, I'll just say the body appears very 2-dimensional, especially in the shoulder area where the vest should wrap around. On a last note, the two draft sketches are damn hilarious. :V
Desu_Cake: Pretty clean image and good outfit that definitely fits the theme. Yet there remains the boxy chest (looks unnatural) plus the hands are small.
Piranha: I see potential to be had here, that's great! I'll note two things - the eyes appear mis-aligned, and something about the chest and abdomen isn't right (probably the angle relative to shoulders, hip, and head).
Vyrien: Satori appears to be saying to the speaker "and you've gone far enough, now...you shall die." I like that expression. She seems quite tall and stretched however.
Freeze-Ex: Looks great - would love to see this as a model in TGTA.
-
+2 Pwn'd Crow
+1 Vento
Don't have much to say, actually.
-
+2 Freeze
+1 Vento
Oh God you people are insane and that's why I love this place so very much. I get what Freeze means with the drawing not being done yet (as far as I can see, the rifle and wings have no shade and the left thumb is unnaturally short), but it still looks plain gorgeous. Plus, working on it for 14 hours straight is damn worthy of praise. The lineart and shading on Vento's Alice are also incredible, 'nuff said.
Everyone else: not voting for Merp because of last week, but it's just as great as I expected. KazeSenshi hit the nail on the head putting Okuu on flammenwerfing duty, and the minefield cape was a really nice touch. Pwn'd Crow, I considered voting over Vento because I already knew we'd get plenty of World War uniforms and I wanted to see some variety, plus I really like the Merp-ish coloring. Sixten made me laugh waaaay harder than I dare admit, and the background is amazing. Pasu, good as always, and Medi with a gas mask is thematically appropriate, but I think she looks way too similar to her original incarnation aside from that. Necrotastic, as I said before, did a great job on the shading and the pose, and I hope to see more of you in the future; the more the merrier! For Desu_Cake, I really like the uniform, but I think you should work a bit on the lineart to prevent using so many straight lines. Piranha's Shou is actually pretty darn good, but her right eye seems misaligned, and there's something off about her right knee, I'd say. Vyrien drawing a Satori on a Reich uniform should come as a surprise to absolutely nobody. If anything, I'd like to be yet another guy to point out that her limbs are a bit too long, like something straight out of a CLAMP animation, with a side of yandere. Finally, EP improved his earlier draft pretty significantly: I literally can't find anything I don't like about her face, it's pretty damn well done, and the right hand seems to be accurate enough. I'd just like to see you work harder on the rest of the body for next week's entry!

Vento's Alice
I think she is Shou, with Nazrin on the flying hat.

I think she is Shou, with Nazrin on the flying hat.
Dude, that's very clearly Alice. And one of her dolls carrying a hat that possesses no automous flight properties.
Anyway
+2 Freeze-EX Goddamn. I'd go to war with her. Also finish thy stuff :V
+1 V-v-v-vento Have I mentioned I fucking love your style? I think I did but I'm doing it again anyway, because I do.
@Vyrien Perspective porn adfgfdh <3
@610 Cool as fuc idea, but for your usual stuff it looks rushed. Still awesome though, imperial ships and shit
@EP Improvement!
-
+2 Bound
+1 Necrotastic
Bound, your drawing style fits well with this theme! Nice interpretation of the theme, and bonus points for it not detracting from Ichirin's character.
Necrotastic's drawing is just cool. I really look forward to seeing more entries from you!
KazeSenshi, that hat looks a little too high up. Awesome outfit design though.
Pasu, super-cute as always, but I can't really see that as a military outfit.
-

Good idea, will do that. Was meaning to work on that lately anyway. Probably should do it at a more opportune time too. :V
@EP Improvement!
Thanks for the comment. :)
-
+2 Merp
+1 Vento
Sixten- Noses, noes. I like it otherwise, though!
Pasu- not military enough.
Kaze- Like the outfit.
-
+2 Vento - It was hard for me to decide between Vento and Vyrien, but I settled on Vento because the outfit looked grander than the other entries,
+1 Vyrien - THOSE LEGS be too long. Otherwise, the Reich outfit was well done.
In no particular order:
Desu_Cake - I like the design of the oufit (French?), but there's something off about Satori's head and arms. The shoulder guards could have been bigger, though.
Piranha - You're getting there (it reminds me of the Afrika Korps; don't know why), but Shou looks a bit too plain. I'm confusing the sleeves for bare skin, so I think the shoulders should be less round (probably more baggy too).
Necrotastic - Why do I think this is something I'd actually see in Gensokyo? :V Sanae's legs seem off, or the boots are making them seem too small. Her facial expression is too tame(?) - I can't tell if she's giving the angry look or the focused face.
Freeze-Ex - I would have put you first/second, but Vento and Vyrien matched the theme more, assuming "imperial" means "World War I/II." Flandre reminds me of an SC2 Ghost, which makes sense, I guess (nukes and headshots and all).
Merp - Imperial War Council!
Pasu - Same as kinoko and KrackoCloud. It has a lot of potential, but it just needs more gear.
Sixten - It fits right into Star Wars, all right. I couldn't quite recognize Kanako, though; for a moment, I thought it was Shizuha.
-
+2 Pwn'd Crow
+1 Necrotastic
Pwn'd Crow: While there are pics that certainly look awesomer, it's unique, still a military outfit, and also really fit the 和風 Japanese feel of Yuyuko's character. Maybe her headgear is a bit weird though.
Necrotastic: For some reason, I wouldn't place it in group 2 below. That just really looks good on her.
Honorable Mention
Bound: A very unique take on Ichirin, and I really like the Unzan as a lamp genie idea. I would totally have voted for this, but the theme is military outfits, and it doesn't really seem like a military outfit, even if it is original. Still, I really like it. Ichirin surprisingly really matches that Arabian attire.
Freeze-Ex: You go all out as usual, good job! Amazing detail, and 14 hours is just crazy. I watched some of your stream but I had homework, so I couldn't watch it to the end. It was either this one or Necrotastic's.
The rest of the entries fell into either of 2 categories for me:
Group 1: Not too different from normal attire
KazeSenshi: I like that nuclear flamethrower thing though. (Also her hat seems to be floating?)
Pasu: Volatile-liquid-poison-ignition-and-launching device? Poison gas mask was a nice touch.
Group 2: Not too inspired
Merp, Desu_Cake, Piranha, Vyrien: I know the theme is military uniforms, but I think simply making them wear uniforms is nothing more than mere dress up and not any better than photoshopping a 2hu head on any existing military uniform pic. I'd say Merp's has the most atmosphere, but otherwise neither the theme nor their uniform are really creatively expressed, and thus making one not really better than any of the others in this category. Doesn't mean they're bad though, so sorry if I offended anyone. Considering what I said, I suppose excluding Vento is a bit unfair, but his pic exudes a certain aura that draws me in (and it's a bit more elaborate).
And then:
Etc Mention
Sixten: I got a good laugh out of this one. And you really are good with those backgrounds.
EP: Reimu's facial structure makes her look quite handsome. Otherwise, the sword was a bit in the way and since it wasn't a full body pic, I couldn't really make a good judgement about the uniform as a whole.
-
+2 Pwn'd Crow
Yuyuko having 2 sword and with a samurai armor

I like the voting form cuz it meant I didn't have to feel awkward not having much to say since I'm not really the type to be super critical of art.......
-
Oh man, had a hard time choosing. They all look great! ;~;
+2 Vento
At first, it wasn't even in my vote list, and as I looked at it again and again... It grew on me, and is now one of my favorites. The customization of her costume, the expression, the dolls, the weapons, those boots <3 Everything is wonderful.
+1 Necrotastic
It comes off as a great, to me. I like the more "regular" army suit, instead of Nazi generals suit (Although they were all awesome as well) that seemed to be the trend :V I'm amazed at how well it fits Sanae, and I chuckled at the dialogue.
I was the one who called you a bitch, but that's because I played Fantasy Maiden Wars...
Special mention to Pasu and Merp in particular, who looked really awesome. Sadly, I think Merp's isn't "Touhou" enough (...I honestly have a hard time recognizing people) while Pasu's isn't "military" enough. It's just my (incredibly not relevant) opinion, though.
-
+2 Kaze Senshi
+1 Sixten
I think Kaze's idea is the most badass. I like the flamethrower arm and the scene inside the cape. The main problems I can point out are the hat being too high, as was mentioned already, and her wings seemingly not being connected to her body.
Second pick was a tough call between Sixten and Vento, but Hina dressed as Darth Vader is too amusing to resist.
-
+9002 Vento
-
+2 Freeze: Super high level drawing. Looks military and preserves enough of Flan to let you know it's her. Has the proper feeling of power and intimidation.
+1 Vento: Looks like it could be a winner, but not a runaway winner like the first week. Amazing costume and drawing, but the manliness that worked really well with Miko doesn't work so well with Alice. The bright green eyes also made me think Parsee.
Crow: Nice concept, and has nice shading and texture. Try putting another layer on top of the drawing, and use that layer to draw the outline of the body underneath the costume. The problems with the outline should help you correct.
KazeSenshi: Great concept and costume design. Some anatomy problems, but it looks like you got the face right. Oddly, I don't like the cape full of explosions.
Pasu: Very well drawn and very cute (as redundant as it would be to say that about any Pasu piece). I don't think it works as a military outfit though.
Merp: Well drawn, but all the characters look the same to me. I have to study the picture to determine who they are.
Necro: Actually pretty well drawn. The boots go great with the costume but I don't know how the feet would look if the boots were taken off.
Desu_Cake: Nice outfit. Hands could be better.
Piranha: Nothing to say, nothing pops out as particularly bad or good.
Vyrien: Gorgeous outfit. The gun is very well drawn.
EP: One of the best drawn things I've seen from you. Appropriate use of genderswap.
Bound: Great concept, awesome exotic costume. Goes very well with your style.

+2 Vento
+1 Freeze-Ex
Vento: Good good, it looks pretty badass, nice details and shanghai at the background :P
Freeze-Ex: Nice job too, her outfit looks great, I loved her gloves, maybe if you did this one in a pose that we could see her body better could valorize more her outfit.
Pwn'd Crow (Mukei): My third place option, nice job again :)
Pasu: Awesome as always but it lacks the war feeling.
Sixten: Spinning Hina with lightsabers :)
Merp: The ambientation looks awesome with that dim light, but there are something strange with their faces I think
Necrotastic (RottenMuffin): Nice job with the coloring, but her body looks a bit flat
Bound: Unzan's fists are bigger xD
Desu_Cake: Her pose looks stiff
Piranha: Good job with Shou, only her right hand thumb looks a bit strange
Vyrien: Clamp plz :V
EP: Ikeman plz :P
PS: Utusho's helmet looks flying because her ribbon is inside of it :V

And these people get free virtual cookies~!
Bound: Nooow, that's what I call a creative interpretation of a military outfit! (I'm not being sarcastic or something). I really liked your Ichirin.
MaCrow Hatch: It's ironic that only you (and maybe Bound) have drawn an ~Eastern~ warrior, hahah. Nice Yuyu♥, although I think she doesn't look fierce enough (?).
Pasu: Not very military, but still cute.
These people have submitted such awesome drawings I don't really know what to say
Vento
Freeze-Ex
Vyrien
(You still get the cookies, of course)
I have very little time, so I can't make a dumb comment on every drawing. But you all have presented amazing works♥!
-
+2 Freeze Woah that Flan! :o *mindblown*
+1 Vento Awesome uniform + badass pose + Alice, do I need to explain more?
Pwn'd crow That samurai suit looks good! And I love how you fixed the small details, that made Yuyuko recognizable in all the armor that samurais have.
Bound This costume really fits Ichirin! And this was really cool, especially the genie-in-a-lamp thing with Unzan.
Pasu I really loved that Medicine! But i have to agree with the others that it didn't show enough, um military feels?
Sixten Oh my those fabulous perspectives! Also Kanako and Hina looks great! I like how the big octagon frame gave you a focus on Kanako as well.
Merp This was cool and had an very war-like setting, but the lack of characteristics made the faces look a little to similar. (This was probably mostly because of the lack of colour, but I think having it would have made it lamer.)
Oh btw thanks for the awesome comments and critics! (I'll have to spend a little extra time to make sure that the boots looks right next time haha. ^^") Oh and i'm really sorry that i didn't have enough time to comment everyone! :ohdear: But homework never ends, and I'm going up early tomorrow orz".

+2 Vento
+1 Freeze-Ex
Appraisal for everyone because I've been stingy in the past.
Vento: I really love the dynamics of the piece and ceremonial military is awesome.
Freeze: As always, excellent technique. Such a pity (again) it's not finished but I love the execution of the idea.
Crow: Improvement shines through. Great piece but could have maybe done with a touch of colour.
Kaze_Senshi: I do like the idea and a mine explosion cape is great, there are some issues that have already been addressed, however.
Pasu: I love the concept and the colouring, poison mask is a really great touch.
610: Amusing concept and those are some excellent fighters in the BG, I'd like to see more pencil-work from you in the future.
Merp: Reich uniforms are kind of a big deal, I really like how it looks like an old photograph. Atmosphere is excellent as per usual.
Necrotastic: I like kit you gave her and colours are nice. I would like to see a more refined drawing next time as it seems a tad sketchy, also something strange is happening with her left foot.
Bound: As others have mentioned, the concept is incredibly fitting of Ichirin, I can't help but feel that her pants are a bit low, however.
Desu_Cake: Satori is always good and again, ceremonial military strikes a chord with me, I feel that the pose could be more dynamic though, she's a bit stiff.
Piranha: I like the jacket and boots <3 Shao's eye is a bit off though and her feet are a little small which makes her look unbalanced.
EP: I shall reiterate what others have said about improvement, I would have liked to see more than just the top half.
-
Bound: As others have mentioned, the concept is incredibly fitting of Ichirin, I can't help but feel that her pants are a bit low, however.
In some places of the world low pants are stylish :o

EP: Reimu's facial structure makes her look quite handsome. Otherwise, the sword was a bit in the way and since it wasn't a full body pic, I couldn't really make a good judgement about the uniform as a whole.
Hehe, thanks.
Was not actually going for a sword here, but in retrospect that might fit better than what I did place. As for full body, yeah, definitely would've helped and probably should have done so if time was available.
Appropriate use of genderswap.
Hehe. I actually wasn't intending on genderswapping, but I guess the masculine face does give that impression.
EP: Ikeman plz :P
Wait what? :V
I would have liked to see more than just the top half.
Understandably. Will do full body next time, probably even a full-body revision.
-
Hehe. I actually wasn't intending on genderswapping, but I guess the masculine face does give that impression.
The fact that your image name is "Emperor" and not "Empress" also gives that impression...

Well Vento, you know the drill - let's get a new theme running quickly!

(PS. The following is not meant to be taken seriously, and I am aware that the objective of Aliceball is not to win.)
So the Guilty Aliceball Tournament is four weeks old now and the Drama Queens (Merp, Vento, Vyrien, and Pasu) have taken home the Pasu O'Brien trophy every single week. Which begs the following questions:
1. "Merp-Vento-Pasu" spells "MVP". Could this be the start of a new Drama Queens art dynasty that dominates the Atelier in the same way that Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls dominated the NBA in the 1990's?
2. With Vyrien being the only member of the Drama Queens who hasn't won the trophy, the pressure will be on her in the coming season. Will she choke under the pressure, or will she rise to the occasion and become the second V in "MVP"?
3. It is universally acknowledged that Freeze is the best artist on the forum, and his multiple second-place finishes attest to this. But why hasn't he won the trophy yet? Does he have issues off the court, or is he just not capable of being clutch? Or could he be a once-in-a-generation phenomenon like Jerry West or LeBron James, who spent many seasons waiting for the stars to align before they won their championships and took their place among the legends of the game?
4. Will another team emerge to challenge the Drama Queens dynasty? Rumors have been circulating about an alliance between wily old veteran Sixten, transcendent talent Freeze-Ex, three-time Sixth Man of the Year Kinoko, and 2013 #1 overall draft pick Maullar. Could they be the next Miami Heat?
The fifth week of Aliceball is about to start.
It's gonna be big!

If you don't like that you don't like MoTK Aliceball!

Man you sound mad butthurt :V

I apologize if it came across like that. That was not the intention. I merely wanted to call out the continued excellence of Pasu and co. and relate it to the upcoming NBA Playoffs.

Would be funny if another faction ends up forming here.

vento plzno
also if you are actually out of ideas ask others for some!

Yeah someone suggested that to me lol
-
Quite a silly suggestion, but it does bring a good point.
I think we covered "Touhous in different attires" adequately as of late. How about having to interpret some event, action, etc.? Whatever that may be, that's up to you to decide. :P
-
Yeah someone suggested that to me lol
... oh.
<:U
Also yes doing something a little different and more open to interpretation would be great.

Ung... I don't know if I'm gonna have to put this down as "overly violent" or something. Obviously there isn't blood and guts everywhere, but the idea behind the picture itself is just kind of distasteful.
You still have a week if you want to give it a go again.

Personally disconcerting, but passable.
I guess a lot of people think that insubordination is supposed to be violent? :U
Remember, civil disobedience also counts as insubordination!

Well, what about this (http://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y408/NKBound/EikiIsIncrediblyLazilyDoneButScrewIt0001_zpsbcedecf3.jpg)
Eiki's face and legs took longer to draw than the rest of the drawing combined, and I still took the lazy way out. I guess I'll try to improve it later *shrug*

Hilarious draft there! That last sign-bearer was too good. :V

Can we ban photobucket yet :V
-
Then can we ban Tinypic and Imageshack too? :V :smokedcheese:

I'm cool with that

Why ???

Because they're terrible?
Can we get rid of Deviantart, too?

I've heard the complaint before but I've never really asked about it.
They're slow, often don't work very well and can have issues with opening up the image.
-
Can I make a request that the entry pics have some kind of signature so I don't have to keep going back to the final entries list to re-find which pic belongs to whom when comparing them side by side?
It's only a matter of convenience when deciding my votes, but if it gets taken up, I'd be really helpful.
-
I've heard the complaint before but I've never really asked about it.
Imageshack and photobucket give 1998 dial-up flashbacks with how slow they load. I liked tinypic a lot until 2 or 3 months ago when it suddenly crapped out completely and I can't see anything anymore on it, not even my stuff.
Imgur, puush, Minus, etc. are more modern and stable. I'm cool with deviantart, though.
Can't you just keep a tab open for the list while you're doing that?
-

I think most of participants have their own recognisable enough styles, despite someone trying to mimic Merp. :3
-
I've heard the complaint before but I've never really asked about it.
As Haku said, said sites tend to be slow and/or just uncooperative.
A more practical solution might be to have a mirror link - for instance, one could have a pic on both PB and his/her Dropbox.
-
be pro like vento and use 48x48 Puush screenshots
-
That would be kind of redundant, though. Instead of having one link and a mirror, it would make more sense if everyone just used the better sites in the first place.
So if this is really a problem for some people, we don't really have a choice.
So can I have a definitive list of websites people can or shouldn't use?
On the subject of picture signatures, I personally don't find it a bad idea at all. It's a little more convenient and it doesn't take much time for you to write your name.
Also makes it easier when there's players I haven't seen before, since I don't have to guess what they'd like to be called by.
I'll add this to the rules as a common courtesy type of thing.
-

If you're going to do it, say how good this Russian server (http://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6517/110955323.6/0_a9e00_a7f35ba3_orig) goes in America, and whether I may continue to use it.

I'm pretty sure the original suggestion was a bit sarcastic, despite the slow site problems that are fully there. Least that's how I interpreted it at first when writing the response post - hence the Mima smiley :P
Then we took the issue seriously and here we are now. So onto that subject, Imgur's farily good in this regard.

A bit slow from US east coast, but maybe it's just the resolution.

95mb/s connection here, and there's a visible loading time, maybe like 5 seconds or something. Even with its resolution it shouldn't take that long.
For me, I've had no problems at all seeing any entries, and personally would be okay with it. But I'm guessing for others the loading is slower, so you might want to make a switch.

Okay, so my life is busy now and I'm retiring from Aliceball. I might show up once every two months and play some pick-up for the love of the game, but I'm getting too old for this. Mostly, I'm going to be like Charles Barkley and show up for the post-game show and voting every week. I'll still post updates in the Use Your Illusion thread - that book will keep on going.
Also like Barkley, I do regret having to retire without having won the Pasu O'Brien Trophy, but I enjoyed the game whether I won or not.
Anyway, here's my final entry: Swords to Plowshares (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/stp.jpg)

A few glaring things, but I was (and as of this post still am) too tired to address them, so I drew this, added text, and called it done. Original plan was a bit more intricate than this and had different characters, but oh well. Maybe next attempt.

So, is this still happening? It'd be kinda sad to leave Sixten without a much deserved last round of applause.

Well, he's still hanging out in AA, and drawing - and he's still gonna be voting, so it's not like he's left or anything :U
You guys might want to get ready for an extension on my part. I don't know how much time I'll have today.
EDIT: waaaaah I had no idea we'd already gone over :/
That being said, we've only gotten like, what, four submissions or something? That's a pretty drastic drop. I think I'll extend the deadline regardless.
Entries extended to Thur, Apr 25.
I'm guessing we're all busy or something, which is fine.
Also might as well bring up the fact that at some point I may have to officially slow down the pace of the game. This time may be coming soon, depending on how things work out.
-
Well it's currently (or will about to be) exam time for many of us uni students, but that's about the only explanation I have at this time.

I actually have an exam tomorrow, so I'd be okay with the extend. I'll try to deliver something that isn't half-assedly colored this time (and, preferably, not on Photobucket).

"Sakuya, pour the tea."
She did.

Bound did a great job. I love the little souls. Wish I saw some color!
Kaze's is just so ridiculous it makes me laugh. Koakuma's face works well. Somehow this reminds me of Daily Lives of Highschool Boys.
-
This week's theme was pretty hard, it was something more subjective than visual =0
Anyway...
+2 Kracko
+1 Sixten
Kracko: The Remilia's expression is like "WTF are you doing", I think that it would look better if you drew Sakuya's face expressing something like "hah hah, take this b#!ch".
Sixten: Awesome details as always. One strange thing is that it looks that Reisen and Youmu are stopped, it would look better if they were walking. Also you could add some tears falling from their boss to add more emotion to the moment, since there is no visible face to put more "feeling" on the picture.
-
@KazeSenshi: But they are walking...
Whoever wins this vote will be like Hakeem Olajuwon during the years Jordan took off to play baseball. It could be argued that Hakeem never would have won if Jordan had been playing, but nobody will say that Hakeem didn't earn those two rings.
For judging these entries, I removed all text from them and asked if I could tell what was going on.
+2 Kracko: My picture requires you to know who Youmu and Reisen are for you to know that they have left their weapons at the feet of their masters - but yours does not require such knowledge.
Even for someone with absolutely no knowledge of Toho, the maid uniform already suggests "servant" and the situation and facial expressions clearly indicate some kind of trolling. The picture with the best storytelling will win this round, and it looks like we have our Hakeem.
+1 Bound: The signs are good for comedy, but even if there was nothing on the signs, it would be clear that Komachi was leading a crowd in protesting something. Good job.
Arkeden: Without the text, I can still tell that Momiji is mad at Aya about something. But without background knowledge, I can't tell that it's insubordination.
KazeSenshi: I get the feeling that Koa is throwing her hands up in frustration. But Patchouli's body language is not so easy to read. Is she angry or surprised? Is she reaching out to give an order or
to physically stop Koa? Anyway, seeing Koa like this depresses me. Have some dere Koa (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/alivery/koa.jpg).
EP: It's pretty clear that Elly (or whatever her name is) is angry at Yuka. I kind of need the text to know she's planning her revenge though.

Yeah, it's Elly.
+2 Kracko
Very different mood and tone from the other entries. Definitely gives that insubordinate theme but isn't completely outright, masking some of it off. I think Remi's expression could be changed to a more surprised one.
+1 Sixten
I think that Reisen and Youmu dropping their equipment with their old masters implies quite a bit more significance than insubordination. Good details as always.
Arkeden: Theme-wise, it gets the job done. In terms of details, eyes are a tad misaligned, and the body seems plump and rigid.
Bound: I have a sign! :V It says "great detail work on Komachi and Shiki particularly; a little more background detail would be great too!"
KazeSenshi: Great hand improvement as of late! A few errors still but they are part of the learning process. But when it comes to the theme, I have a feeling that it's suggesting subordination instead - it appears as if Patchy scolding Koa for supporting Marisa's book heists! :V
-

+1 Bound
whats the point of voting if you're being bias?
-
+2 Kracko
+1 Bound
Right, so, there is a reason why I didn't join and it was because this is a rather complex theme to draw for. The word insubordination seems to have been interpreted widely here as 'do shit to your boss' which is................. not...... really correct. It's more of defying orders, which Kracko managed to convey with his art uw u (also, remi bullying is entertaining) Bound also drew close to it by showing Komachi protesting against her job... Kaze almost took my +1 here but I liked the motorboat sign
pieces like sixten's though, shows udonmyon leaving their respective masters (why... are there guns, i'm confused) which doesnt really fit my own interpretation of insub (i'm sorry if this definition is actually wrong) cuz there aren't 'orders' to defy
-
Sixten will win and I will make sure of it.
...eh
-
+2 Kracko
+1 Kaze_Senshi
I didn't join because exams, sarry guys.
Kracko I love the expressions, and the concept fits great with the rather difficult abstract theme. gj
Kaze although your technique maybe needs some work (although you are fast improving!) the concept suits the theme well.
Sixten your theme is less 'insubordination' and more 'resignation'. A pity because I really wanted to vote for you but to me, it just doesn't fit the theme well enough.
-
+2 Sixten
+1 Bound
The word insubordination seems to have been interpreted widely here as 'do shit to your boss' which is................. not...... really correct.
I'm inclined to agree, though personally I would say that Sixten's work hit the nail on the head (well, more so than the the others). Using just a picture, it's not easy at all to give the impression of a direct order being, or having been, given (without resorting to text anyway, which I think is undesirable) and I don't get that impression from any of the pictures submitted here. It's not clear what's happening in Kaze's, and I think EP's and Kracko's both fall directly into the "do shit to your boss" category. Arkeden's, Sixten's, and Bound's, while not exactly showing a command being ignored, do show the characters refusing to do their jobs. Arkeden's loses out due to relying on text to some degree. Sixten's wins out over Bound's by having significantly more subtlety, and, from a technical standpoint, feeling like a more complete picture (background, fully colored, etc.)
My opinion anyway.
-
+1 KrackoCloud
+1 Sixten
I guess the problem with insubordination is that it requires some context to fully convey the significance of the disobedience.
Googling resulted in anything from "a constant or continuing intentional refusal to obey a direct or implied order, reasonable in nature, and given by and with proper authority" to "Refusal or deliberate failure to carry out a legal [(i.e., not illegal)] assignment entrusted by a superior" to "not submissive to authority; disobedient or rebellious".
KrackoCloud conveyed the context with text, which I'm not sure about, but I liked the expressions.
Sixten's I'm less sure about because I'm not sure if quitting your job can be considered disobedient or rebellious.
The other submissions (haha) were more about strikes or revenge, and didn't really seem to capture the theme.
Which is to say that none of the entries really seemed spot on, so I'll just pick what I found most interesting this time.
(A little thanks to everyone who used signatures by the way, I found it really helpful. It also added that little tasteful-ness that completes a drawing)
So my question is can we use text in the future? Perhaps to add some backstory to submissions?
-
I think you're reading too hard into this, mate
-
I wouldn't be surprised if we had a 4koma theme or something at some point. Text is fine, especially for interpretation themes. But less is usually better.
Also, that dialogue I wrote up came afterwards, after someone mentioned that Sakuya was still getting the tea into the cup.. so, so it doesn't count! :U

+2 KrackoCloud :3
+1 Sixten :3
Both of them were really good! And I struggled a bit when choosing the best one.
Sadly we only had 6 entries this time... Which makes me regret being to lazy to submit anything. :(
Hopefully more people will join next time! ^v^
-
This theme is a bit too vague for me to really know how to judge based on that so I kind of just went with the niceness of the art rather than taking the theme a bit into account like I have previously...

Guilty Alice Week 5 Results!
The winner is... well,
KrackoCloud!
Um... Yeah!
With Sixten in a close 2nd!
Sometimes I feel like Sixten is just getting 2nd place to show that he could win whenever he wants and is just holding back <:U
Anyway KrackoCloud, you know the rule. Choose the next theme by Tuesday.
If anyone has any suggestions, post it. I'm considering going for popular fake Touhou bosses though.
-
Not sure if you're talking strictly about characters like Mitori and Sasha, or if any Touhou from a fangame is fair game, but I'm all out for that. I've never drawn any of those girls, so it should be interesting!
-
Go for Hungover Touhous.
-
The world needs more fanarts from Marine Benefit, fake bosses yay

Ah, damn, I don't even know any all that well; might complicate the matter slightly (which is not a problem though).

I'm fine with this. :V
Alternative idea: Other characters wearing Touhou hats/misc items.

Holding back!? I dislike the implication that I wasn't playing to the best of my ability. I would rather have it said that I left my heart on the court every season, but just didn't have enough talent to earn the Pasu O'Brien, even in a season where all the elite players sat out.
Anyway, if you're looking for suggestions, here's what I would've asked for if I hadn't choked in the finals (twice):
Week 6 Theme: Ball So Hard.
Requirements: One or more Toho characters in the act of playing a sport that requires a Ball.
Priority: Characters in motion displaying their skill and/or athleticism.
Optional: Relate your picture to a famous athlete, such as:
- Byakuren as the superhuman running back Adrian "Purple Jesus" Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings.
- Cirno as Serge Ibaka (jersey number: 9), forward of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
- Reisen (Udonge) as Novak Djokovic, the Serbian tennis star who has a contract with Uniqlo.
-
Week 6: Mock BossesDraw a known mock Touhou boss, an original Touhou character that mimics game artwork and tries to pass off as an actual boss.
See here (http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Fan-made_characters) for popular examples.
(Note that characters like Maybell and Meimu, while original characters, are not mock bosses.)
If you don't know if a certain character works or not, just ask.
Entry Deadline: Tue, May 7Vote Deadline: Fri, May 10If you guys come across any cool mock bosses, feel free to mention or show them!
There's an artist called Nikka who has some pretty cool alphes-style Touhou bosses.

So you basically want us to draw someone's OC...?

Well, yes, although it sounds pretty lame when you put it like that.
I don't know if the mobile version of the wiki is different or anything, but later in the article is tells you about different types of Touhou OCs. That's what I'm talking about when I mention the categories.
-
i propose we just draw in ZUNart
-
Apple Girlington (http://cubewatermelon.tumblr.com/post/33352273757/happy-birthday-to-toby-radiation-fox-here-is) better be allowed
-
What is the problem of drawing non-official characters?
-
It's not 2hu.
-
It is remotely related though, isn't it?
If Girlington gets in, then Meimu and others will too. Although I'm pretty sure no one would be complaining if that were the case (at that point it would just become draw any Touhou OC).
-
If the problem is "to draw any Touhou OC", Kracko could just choose the permitted sources, like some games or a list of characters.
Even if they aren't 2hu they are touhou related after all.
-
since i am idort, can someone just compile a list of eligible characters here so i can google it later
-
can we just make our own 2hus because "draw nonexistent character x" is kinda boring
-
There are some characters that exists in fangames like Last Comer and Cia :o
-
Not the point.
-
can we just make our own 2hus because "draw nonexistent character x" is kinda boring
I would not mind, but we'd probably have to add some more restrictions to this (eg. certain style of attire, ability X or Y) for the interests of judging.
-

I'm willing to change the theme if enough people are against it, but I don't think I'd do just "Touhou OCs" because that's really broad imo. Not sure what kind of extra requirements I could add to make it more plausible, but EP has a good idea. But I'd rather not dwell on what kind of requirement I'd like to see most, so if things come to it I''d probably just go with Sixten's sports idea or Brohous.
There are some characters that exists in fangames like Last Comer and Cia :o
Last Comer wouldn't count as mock bosses - at least not to me, because the characters aren't trying to pass off as real Touhou characters.
I think the vagueness of what constitutes as a proper mock boss are the main point of debate and discontentment here.
since i am idort, can someone just compile a list of eligible characters here so i can google it later
If I understand correctly, the most prolific mock bosses are all in the article minus Maybell and Meimu - that is, Karen Yawata, Mitori Kawashiro, Sasha Sashiromiya, Rinbokusan Sasaki, Sen Gatensoku, and Sugar Satellite, although I've seen others before like the Nowakis (Tai and Kine) and Marine Benefit characters.
-

It's said that "youkai of remote disappears" exists. How about youkai of modern times?
Another idea: sci-fi alternatives of existing th_lolis, say, a kiloyears old woman with modified DNA, making her not aging, operating mobile time-space warping device. Or a cyborg loli with implanted precise EM scanner adapted for brain activity analysis. Preferably in ZUN style.

I've revised the theme description.

Tsubame (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/tsubame.jpg)
I am retired from Aliceball. I'll barely exert any effort on any submissions (this one was done during the commercial breaks of tonight's Clippers vs. Grizzlies game), and nobody can vote for me.
-
What do you mean we can't vote for you! I'll honor it if that's what you really want, but even if you won the "worst" thing that could happen is you choose the next theme.
Also your entry still looks really great. Actually, it's one of my favorites from you so far. I love sketchy things.
-
I'll be sitting out for this round
-

I retired from Aliceball so it wouldn't take so much of my time, and being eligible for voting would defeat that purpose. If there is even a remote chance of me winning, I might end up playing to win and spending 10+ hours on a piece like I have in past seasons. So yes, I would prefer it if nobody could vote for me.

If your problem is time maybe this is the opportunity for you to find some new way to draw/paint using less time. You could use Aliceball as a lab and incentive to keep trying different styles of drawing.
BTW nice Tsubame.

I think the problem many of us have been having is maybe trying too hard. Sixten's concerns in this sense is right. Having to draw for a contest every week is time consuming, esp. when you're trying to make it look good.
At the start of Guilty Alice, I was thinking that everyone would only be posting sketches and simple drawings - I was pleasantly surprised when people started whipping up hardcore art pieces! It's a lot of fun, but at this point, I think I need to re-stress the original point again.
Guys, don't feel pressured or obligated to work as hard as you do on your normal pieces.
"This is not a serious competition! It's just a thing we do to throw out drawings, fight artist's block, practice, and just have a good time in the Atelier."
If Guilty Alice was supposed to be a game full of blood, sweat, and tears, it wouldn't occur week after week.
Basically, treat Guilty Alice as an art blitz game. Just whip up those drawings and get 'em done! I don't give a week for each round so that you can work extra hard on it, I do it just so that more people can join.

Seconding everything Kracko said. Nobody's going to gun you down if you don't feel like going all in. I don't think there's any kind of obligations or expectations.
Now I think I may try to join in this time instead of just lurking around creepily. Though I haven't actually tried to draw characters yet so this is going to get ugly.
-
How about a special time constraint, say, 60 minutes on picture?
"You may improve your piece later, surely, but what you post here should at least look like you hadn't spent more than an hour on it", something like that.
Zil, I don't think you're so creepy, though maybe because I don't participate either.

I've actually considered that! I do think it's a cool idea, but at the same time I'm hesitant because I don't know if others will take it as an unnecessary restriction or interpret the Social as a competitive race or something.
Anyone else have thoughts on this?

I'm fine with rough time restrictions. Could even the playing field.

i always thought this would be a friendly thing, to not have competitive linings, idk i drew my entries with experimentation in mind 9_9
as for time restrictions, there is the fact that some people draw faster etc so idk

look like
rough
Let's mark those words bold specially for those some people.
-
Yeah, Vento makes a point. "Leveling the field" isn't really the end goal with any restrictions we make, because skill discrepancies will always exist. I just want the game to be more informal.
I will probably add a one/two hour "suggested" time limit under guidelines.
Guess who was doing it right the whole time? :getdown:
Actually this is pretty true. Kinoko sets a good example :U

By the way, Sixten's entry is awesome. I'm jelly.

Welp, there are issues. (http://i.imgur.com/x4c49Y7.jpg)
It's supposed to be the stage 2 boss from Marine Benefit. Any attempt I made to draw her wearing the hat ended in disaster, so I left it off. I was also too afraid to try drawing the lower half of the body, so she's sitting at some kind of table or something. The pigtails are wrong because I'm stupid. I fucked up her right hand pretty bad, and ended up doing a mutant claw or something for the left. I was going to redo it but ended up coloring in the shirt and just rolling with it. It's all in pen so I can't erase anything.
I had a lot of fun drawing it though. I'll probably do something for each week. (And... uh... get some actual pencils or something.)

Aaaaaah I'm sorry you guys (http://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y408/NKBound/guiltyaliceweek60001_zpsde232b13.jpg) I intended on coloring this
and finding a better image hosting site but drama happened and I kinda lost motivation, so I kinda rushed to finish it in a couple hours today, can I still get in?
Welp, now for the voting business-
+2 Merp: If I recall correctly, most interpretations of Sasha have her using shadowy blobs as danmaku, so this is incredibly fitting. Aside from that, I love the expression, the hair, the lotus flowers on the kimono, and the everything (sadly enough I can't give extra points for masterful use of Blingee).
+1 Kitten4u: Really unique style, it has a bit of an uncanny valley effect, but the expression and the shading in general are great. I'd say her trunk looks too straight for her position, though.
Other peeps: Can't vote for Sixten or Kracko, which makes it much easier for me to decide! :V Sixten's Tsubame is adorable, and Kracko's Karen is very nice too, although her face looks slightly manly. I'd say Vento and Vyrien's entries are more on the joke entry side, but I had a good chuckle at them. As I said before, Zil did a good job on the face, for being rushed and done with pens (it shows on the rest of the drawing, though). Kaze's Otohime is strangely adorable, with the Christmas ornaments and whatnot. Desu_Cake's drawing feels sort of... empty, I'd say? I'd chalk it up to it having no color or shading at all. Finally, EP's drawing would benefit greatly from cleaner lineart and coloring, but welp, there's only so much you can do when you're having a busy week.

Agreed. That's primarily why I jumped in as well. I'd give more comments myself if I felt like I knew what I was talking about.
And I'm glad to hear I at least got the face halfway decent, as that's definitely what put the most effort into. I'll try to spend more time on next week's thing, and hopefully learn something about drawing bodies.

whoops, forgot to post about this
I ask for all future theme-setters to think a little more carefully before deciding on a theme, because I thought we weren't supposed to vote for which drawing is best in terms of quality, but for the one that expresses the theme the best. This week's theme however, does not allow for the latter.

Well... guess it's a good thing we get a new one every week :'U
+2 Merp Really unique!
+1 KazeSenshi Kaze, you really are improving!
Kitten4u, your coloring isn't bad, and you've got a nice style. What is she doing with her arm though?
Sixten, it's sad to see you retire. You're a great artist, and despite saying you didn't put as much into this last drawing, I would have definitely voted for it if I had the chance.

So I'm sure some of you have seen it, but Rou is holding a contest (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,14702.0.html)!
It hasn't been getting activity, so I'm planning on either holding either a joint game with it for a week, or extending the Week 7 deadline by several days to encourage more people to do Rou's contest.
The main thing is if you guys are okay with this. If I get a lot of opposition, then I won't go for it, but considering how Guilty Alice is an unofficial community thing, I feel like we should emphasize other events first. Please let me know if you're against this - otherwise, it's going to happen.
That being said, regardless of what happens, I'm encouraging you to give Rou's contest a go. It has prizes!

+2 Kaze_Senshi
+1 Merp
The level of detail in the clothes and stuff is what won me over with Kaze's entry. It's really interesting to look at.
I really like the way Sasha's outfit turned out in Merp's, and as simple as the background is, it turned out really well. Shows her ability well and creates and interesting atmosphere.
@Kracko
The left one is supposed to show some kind of mischievous giggle. The right one is just pointing, the arm is just about half as long as it should be and I didn't notice until after I finished. :V I noticed Sugar's sleeves are super long in her art, so I thought it'd be cute to do something like that.
-
+2 Merp
+1 Kitten4u
Some fast feedbacks:
*Zil: Maybe doing the filling with pen stroking in the same direction (like a pattern) could make it look better.
*Vento...: It has too many frames
*Desu_Cake: It looks like she is asking to someone give food in her mouth, maybe you drew it thinking this way, if you didn't I think that it is a bit strange;
*EP: I don't know why but when I see someone playing an instrument I look how his hands are playing it, so I think that you should try to work more on hands when drawing someone playing an instrument.

I don't agree with what you said about this week's theme. I think that since this week's theme is about characters who weren't so popular here like the ZUN's 2hus, you should transmit the character's personality and features using your drawing to express better the theme. It isn't just about "drawing skills", you have to use your imagination and put elements to give an extra background about the OC to the viewer.

Actually, while I'm here, I hope you don't mind if I throw in a vote:
+2 Merp This might be the best Sasha Sashiromiya art I've ever seen. (I know there isn't much, but still. :P)
+1 Kaze This will sound strange, but the massive hair accessory really threw off my sense of proportion. :V Great job on the detail, though!
-
+2 Bound: Something is off with the feet, but otherwise it's a gorgeous picture. I like that sponge/coral thing in the foreground.
+1 Merp: Stunning, particularly given the speed at which you did this.
Arkeden: Wouldn't it have been simpler to have the panty-thief in the foreground running toward the camera with the other girl chasing behind her? No need for those portrait bubbles.
Zil: Not bad. The hat should be bigger, so that the inner edge of the brim can fit around the head.
Vento: You can pretty much win whenever you want, so you're entitled to a break every now and then.
KazeSenshi: Nice details. Try to imagine the legs continuing beyond the frame to make the pose look balanced. She looks like she's about to tip over to the right of the frame.
Vyrien: You're obviously taking it easy here, but your skill is still apparent.
Desu_Cake: I would have added the hands. People talk with their hands as much as with their face.
KrackoCloud: The ring finger knuckle on the right hand seems to stick out a bit much, but otherwise, great job.
Kitten4u: Not a fan of the style, but it's clear you've got good coloring technique.
EP: The mandolin could be more technically precise. The strings aren't continuous from one side of the right hand to the other, and she needs a shoulder strap (like with a guitar) or to carry the instrument in the crook of her elbow to be able to play without it falling down.
Dr. House: So will Week 7's theme be to draw the aquatic version of a character? I'm up for that as long as I can keep my retired status (not obliged to put forth any significant effort, and automatically disqualified from any votes or judgment.)

His contest would not be an official Guilty Alice week, I believe. It's more like we're pausing it so that other contests/events can get more attention.
-
Finally, EP's drawing would benefit greatly from cleaner lineart and coloring, but welp, there's only so much you can do when you're having a busy week.
Yeah, it looks hasty indeed.
Perhaps a lack of control in the inking procedure? Seems to be a consistent fallacy.
*EP: I don't know why but when I see someone playing an instrument I look how his hands are playing it, so I think that you should try to work more on hands when drawing someone playing an instrument.
Oi, should've done that. Did use a rough pose but that didn't do justice. Plus the hand definitely is looking too flat and stiff.
EP: The mandolin could be more technically precise. The strings aren't continuous from one side of the right hand to the other, and she needs a shoulder strap (like with a guitar) or to carry the instrument in the crook of her elbow to be able to play without it falling down.
Mhm, definitely drew that with little attention. Yay for forgetting to include that. :|
Ratings for now with critique to follow later:

Guilty Alice Week 6 Results!
The winner is...
Merp!
His second win of the season!
And KazeSenshi in second place!
As noted, Guilty Alice will be taking a brief pause to allow time for Rou's contest (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,14702.0.html).
Normal Guilty Alice scheduling will return May 20.
Merp, if you want to declare the next theme before that date, feel free.
-
We're back online!
Merp, you have through Wed, May 22 to announce the next deadline.
-
I'm gonna go with a classic this time since i didn't have much time to think of something clever.
Pasu & Vento's probbaly gonna hurt me
Gensokyo just started going through an industrial revolution.
So this week's theme will be Steamworks, Clock works & Neo victorian
[/size]
Best of luck!
Challenge mode: There are probably folks in the fantasy world who will continue clinging to the old ways so Fantasy vs Technology would be cool.

E: Oh, right.
Entries end Wed, May 29.
A little extra time to get back into things, although I might opt for this kind of scheduling anyway. It's easier to plan and gives everyone more time.
-
Do you mean Mon 27 or Wed 29?
-
Thanks, updated <:U

Where's everyone's submissions? I'm never the first entry. Anyway, I did this during the Heat/Pacers game. Although it was quite the exciting game, now that the Bulls have been eliminated I can afford to not pay attention.

Oh my gosh, how did I never see this before? It's so obvious now that I think about it....
"This" referring to the shimenawa-turned-gear, but I just realized that while I've been watching this thread from time to time, I haven't actually said or posted anything acknowledging, applauding, or acclaiming it. This is a really admirable thread you folks have going on here, I'm so glad to see socialization on AAA and activities like this. mostly because I'm a huge sap and because I've wanted to see AAA having fun as a collective as opposed to everyone being in their own threads.
-
The deadline ends tomorrow, but we're real short on entries - I'm gonna extend it for 5 more days.
Entry deadline ends Mon, Jun 3.
I think at some point I should just stick with Guilty Alice and drop the "Weekly Social" part <:U
Maybe after summer or something. How would you guys feel about 1.5~2 weeks per round?

For me there is no problem with this, just don't drop the Guilty Alice ;P

A fortnight sounds like plenty of time for submissions.
-
Plenty as in sufficient, or too much?
-
omg extension
-
At this rate, maybe even I will submit something. If I'll draw anything, of course.
-
I would've finished this on Wednesday if it wasn't for the extension. The lack of a need to rush slows me down.
There was going to be a background, but I got lazy. (http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/8338/remilia.png)

Hey I know we've had a massive extension already but I've been terribly busy with exams (as with many) could I please request an additional extension of a day or two? Thanks!

I completely understand - I've got finals too. It might just be a good idea to wait for the whole thing to settle down completely before moving on, then. What's a good day for you? Or anyone else,really.

Whoa. Impressive.
Though that does bring something of note - whether collab entries are allowed for judging in tandem with solo works. On the flip side, collab weeks sound like a great idea.
-
Personally I'm against collabs (esp. w/ Queens! :U), but I won't disallow it. As long as the collabers agree on who the official winner is. Anyway, for the time being, it's too situational and too soon to make a good judgment.
An official collab game would be cool, but hard to organize. It would probably fare better as its own contest outside of GA.
-
How about we just leave it be and everyone does their best as they can and avoid clogging the games with rules?
-
Vento+vyrien entry: When I saw that in-progress on the stream, my best guess to myself that it was for this... and I was right! 'S most definitely worthy of a vote. :3 +2
-
Personally I don't see the harm of collabing as it plays to the nature of this thread, as a social (LINK GO )
collabs public or not give a reason to reach out to your fellow players :3
-
Does it matter? If it's a collab, the participants could just come up with a theme together.
-
Does it matter?
P much, nah.

Oh man, sorry guys. I thought the votes ended today, not yesterday. :I
The winner may be a little... obvious, by this point, but let's keep in the practice for the sake of runner-ups and feedback.

KazeSenshi: Looks pretty hectic, which makes it hard to appreciate the picture as a whole.
Arkeden: Not bad, but still ended up looking more futuristic than steampunky.
Delfi: It lacks enough detail for the picture to be noticeably Neo-Victorian. I also can't tell who the girl holding Seki's head is. :/
Endless: The dynamics of the hair and clothes feel a bit wonky, but overall I like this one. Wish you had a better scan/shot of this, since it seems kind of slanted.
Bound: This is really great - it fits the theme really well!
Zillion: This one also seems too similar to a futuristic theme.
Kitten4u: Really well done and very colorful. That being said, Marisa's outfit is practically the exact same thing. :U
Piranha: I feel that it lacks enough ambition to fit the theme well, but it's cute and pretty well-drawn. Those blade wings seem a bit off, but it's not a big deal.

Delfi: It lacks enough detail for the picture to be noticeably Neo-Victorian.
I'd say it lacks enough detail to be a picture, just as usual for my drawings, though. :derp:
I also can't tell who the girl holding Seki's head is. :/
Me neither. :derp:
-
EP: Who is this? :<
I attempted a stylised Nue, and apparently it didn't turn out well. Neither did the rest of the pic.
+2 Vento/Vyrien
Do I really need to comment on how well-made this is? Great combination and use of colouring.
+1 Kitten4u
Clever mix and fits the theme well.
KrackoCloud: Gives a bit of an impression of Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite. Hilarious application.
KazeSenshi: Nue the UFO Repairwoman! Right hand seems flipped. While the image is complex and tries to be active - a good thing -
Desu_Cake: A bit simple...and not very effective. Not too much thematic application, and the posture seems stiff.
Arkeden: Not a bad posture, but something strikes me a bit incorrectly. Doesn't look very steampunk.
Delfigamer: Silly text. Theme, where's that? There's also quite a few other things - hm, some sketch practice could help.
Endless Hunger: Quite clean and looks good at first glance. While I like the flowing feel, the dynamics could be worked on a bit.
Bound: Classy and good posture. Victorian yes, but a little more tech for the steampunk part would help.
Zent: Seems futuristic and not steampunk.
Piranha: Simple and rather effective - though more thematic application would help. Would like to see more examples.
Puppy: Simple and somewhat effective. Same thing with more theme.
-
+1 Vento and Vyrien
+1 Arkeden
Zent: Seems futuristic and not steampunk.
You meant me I think. I'll switch my name back to avoid causing confusion. Feedback...
EP: I couldn't tell who it was.
Delfigamer: Likewise, for the one on the left.
That's all I can really say. In general, I'd have liked to see more machinery and stuff like that (like the UFO in Kaze's, the train in Sixten's). Though I guess I interpreted the theme with too much futuristic-ness.
-
+2 Vento/Vyrien
Just breathtaking.
+1 Kracko
Simple idea, but somehow I totally love this one.
-
+2 Vento/Vyrien: The perspective errors (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/v_persp.jpg) detract from an otherwise fantastic picture, but this is still the clear winner.
+1 KrackoCloud: Great concept (with the gear) and good execution (with the dress and the pose).
KazeSenshi: Love the UFO, but the arms and legs of the character are a little off.
Desu_Cake: Nice concept. The right shoulder seems a little low to me.
Arkeden: Looks good. Not sure if the pipes in the back are supposed to be a wing or a tail.
Delfigamer: Nothing about this stands out to me, for bad or good.
Endless Hunger: Nice costume. However, gears are supposed to look like they fit together with other gears.
Bound: Looks good. I expected the corset to start higher up the torso though.
ZillionBrain: Nice idea. However, you should be able to see the underside (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/z_persp.jpg) of the propeller based on the viewing angle you've chosen for the bucket.
Kitten4u: Still not a fan of the style, but the option keys are a great idea.
Piranha: The hands are off, but otherwise this looks good.
Werepuppy: Looks good, but the position of the legs in the standing pose is a little unnatural.
EP: Is this Nue? The neck, shoulders, and torso seem very off to me.
I have nothing against collaboration entries, as long as nobody asks me to collaborate with them (I'm retired). I also don't mind the "unfair advantage" of Drama Queens collaborating - we knew they were a team to begin with, and it's not like anyone could beat them when they were working separately anyway.
-
it's not like anyone could beat them
why are you still so concerned about winning
-
Personally, I don't have as much of an issue about the Queens winning often than I do about the fact that because of this, less people get to come up with themes.
-
The perspective errors (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/v_persp.jpg) detract from an otherwise fantastic picture
Aight, I've been meaning to tell you this for a while mate, but couldn't find a way. Your own obsession with perspective and rulers too often detract from your own art, and your critique of others' pieces. You're skilled, but your pieces tend to look rather lifeless and bland because you spent more time putting everything in molds and straight lines than giving emotion to the characters and envinronment. Too often, lighting and texture, body language and expression are what makes a picture, not whether the angle of the walls is perfect or not.
It's just something I've been noticing for a bit, hope you don't take any offense :I
-
Personally, I don't have as much of an issue about the Queens winning often than I do about the fact that because of this, less people get to come up with themes.
Nobody forbids you to suggest a theme even if you don't participate at all, yes? I think, if the theme is interesting enough, it will be preferred by a Queen over his/her own. If he/she happens to have it, I remember a case when the winner hadn't came up with a certain theme, having a rather indistinct (I hope I got right word from a dictionary) one instead, don't remember his name, though.
...Ye-eah, it was just "fanmade characters", now you remembered it?
You meant me I think. I'll switch my name back to avoid causing confusion.
It reminds me of the Likhachev Factory, ZiL (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZiL), did you know? :V
-
Too often, lighting and texture, body language and expression are what makes a picture, not whether the angle of the walls is perfect or not.
This comes at most people first and foremost, certainly, and is important in an illustration. Nevertheless, technical bits can't be ignored either. Slight errors can ruin otherwise perfect pictures.
EP: Is this Nue? The neck, shoulders, and torso seem very off to me.
Okay, good to have the specific areas pinpointed.
-
+2 KazeSenshi
+1 Vento/Vyrien
KazeSenshi: Cutesy as usual. I'm really excited to see your art evolve in the future tbh. I like the steampunk UFO idea. The face looks a bit dented/deformed on the left side. It seems to me like you have a solid idea but your hands aren't transferring it to paper confidently. Just general practice and I think you'd improve quite quickly. The reason I put this above Vento/Vyrien 's was because 1) they're already going to win, which I realize is a stupid reason, and 2) because if this were done in the same quality as their submission, I think I would like it more. Of course, dealing with ifs is a bit ridiculous when I should just be comparing the submissions themselves, but I'm a bit torn. I just like it, how about that?
Vento/Vyrien: さすがはヴェントさんですね。Vyrien also did a really good job with that background. Really moody and has the perfect atmosphere. It's really amazing when the two powers are combined into one picture. Though comparatively (to the other submissions), that's not saying much. I mean, that's a given, but I think a great job and hard work deserve some reward (and I think this deserves a trophy. Especially for that Yoshika). Great job guys.
Sixten: As usual, backgrounds look really great. But there's the usual feeling of, hmm, stiffness. Not in the posture, but more from the expressions. They don't seem too inviting. It feels kind of silly to say this for an anime/manga style picture of all things, but it feels lifeless. Now realize I'm saying all this vague stuff because I can't see much other points to improve on technical details-wise.
KrackoCloud: Simple but really funny and fitting. I like the dress and that giant gear. I would have voted for this one if I could.
DesuCake: Seems like you just appended mechanical wings to her back. Style isn't bad, but the idea I find a bit lacking.
Arkeden: Looks good, but trying to decipher what's going on with her right arm is a bit hard. I like the steam exhaust pipes
Delfigamer: It's a bit hard to tell who is who. If I didn't know that Seki could detach her head, I would have no idea. Perhaps you should practice identifying and drawing a character's distinguishing feature (I'm a bit weak at this too). Adding color will also help. Another thing is that for a while, I didn't recognize Seki's body; I thought it was that other girl's strange wings or something. People identify humans easy by eyes, faces, hands, and other things (also why body horror monsters are very repulsive). Since the body had none of those, it was a bit hard to tell. And I don't mean to be a grammer Nazi, but it should be "excess", and 'even' should go between 'won't' and 'fly' - between the auxiliary (will [not]) and main verb (fly).
Endless Hunger: I guess arguing that it would be hard to tell that it was Kaguya without the 5 tasks is a bit pointless, but it's good that there's some distinguishing context (the 5 tasks) to identify her as Kaguya. I guess the point is that if characters don't look like themselves after dress up, then put them into a context where we can identify them. I'm not just saying this to you, I just kind of put this here. As for your art, it's kind of funny to see Kaguya in a Victorian era dress. General practice?
Bound: Not sure what to say. The face and hands look a bit masculine. The eyes are a bit unattractive, though that's just personal preference (maybe).
ZillionBrain: I think someone else said this already, but the technology doesn't really look steampunky. I like the concept though.
Kitten4u: It's got an eccentric feel to it. Like a radical anti-technology mad-scientist kind of eccentric. I think the texture of the broom is really good, and the options look great.
Piranha: I think the dress matches Nue quite well. The trident looks a bit too skinny though. The first thing that caught my attention was the eyes. They remind me of Rebuild Eva's Rei for some reason. Oh well. I like the idea, though it could have been executed a bit better. Especially the spike and snake wings.
Werepuppy: Nazrin seems to fit this style really well

Why the Lafayette do I write so damn much in these?
Finals end on Wednesday and I want some critique too, so I might join a few rounds this summer.
-
why are you still so concerned about winning
I may be just a spectator now, but being a spectator doesn't stop sports fans around the world from caring about the competition. Think of how exciting it would be if there was another entry with the same level of quality as the Vento/Vyrien piece. When everyone knows the winner before the voting begins, it isn't as much fun.
-
One way or another, the whole point of this 'competition' is to get more art done, so most of us are more excited to see people working on art and the result that brings than who got the most +2s in the end, which ultimately doesn't matter a lot to us as a community, it's just a little game.
-
Aight, I've been meaning to tell you this for a while mate, but couldn't find a way. Your own obsession with perspective and rulers too often detract from your own art, and your critique of others' pieces. You're skilled, but your pieces tend to look rather lifeless and bland because you spent more time putting everything in molds and straight lines than giving emotion to the characters and envinronment. Too often, lighting and texture, body language and expression are what makes a picture, not whether the angle of the walls is perfect or not.
It's just something I've been noticing for a bit, hope you don't take any offense :I
Perspective is important, though. It's a perfectly valid critique?
-
I didn't say it wasn't?

It's just something I've been noticing for a bit, hope you don't take any offense :I
There is nothing wrong about being obsessive about perspective. I have done in-game and concept background art for a video game, and have also been commissioned to draw a university's physics lab equipment. I was well-served by my skill with the straight edge.
I also don't think it's wrong to criticize pieces with the bias of a perspective specialist. All pictures can be improved by better perspective. And the perspective being off in a given picture has never stopped me from voting for it based on its other merits.
That said, your point about my characters lacking emotion is a valid one. You are not the first one to have pointed that out. In my art thread, someone put together a collage of the Reisen faces I had drawn, which all looked the same. This lack of emotion could very well be the reason why I've never won this contest.
And don't worry about offending me. There is nothing you can say that can be worse than what my art school professors have already said. I act on any criticism that is well reasoned, even if I don't directly acknowledge it. When some people found errors in my "sailor suits and flowers" picture, I updated the picture (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/frogot.jpg) after the voting had concluded to make the shadows look more correct, and resized Cirno to be closer to Suwako in size. (Old picture is here (http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=34508023) for reference.) And I'm starting on a Reisen expression set so the future pages of my doujinshi don't suffer the same problems as the four that were already drawn.
I have come to accept that my level of character drawing is not enough to win the contest, now or in the foreseeable future. But you have my promise that I will get better.
I might even come out of retirement next year (if the league still exists, that is) and prove it.

Well, I'm glad the point came across.

...I think it's a good time for me to lay off Jojo / Hokuto no Ken style works then. :V
More effort on anatomical correctness and increasing the use of reference images are already in plan.
Why the Lafayette do I write so damn much in these?
Not an issue - detailed commentary and feedback helps!
One way or another, the whole point of this 'competition' is to get more art done, so most of us are more excited to see people working on art and the result that brings than who got the most +2s in the end, which ultimately doesn't matter a lot to us as a community, it's just a little game.
Yeah, pretty much. Myself I'm in it for getting critiques and commentary for practice. :P
-
...I think it's a good time for me to lay off Jojo / Hokuto no Ken style works then. :V
Haha, that's kind of funny.
But pursuing a style that you like is a good thing. Don't give up.
Here is a Mamiya. (http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100531181050/hokuto/images/b/be/Mamiya.JPG)
You can see that she looks like a very attractive woman.
And here's a Jolyne. (http://static.minitokyo.net/downloads/04/29/571454.jpg)
Now Jojo women look a lot more bizarre, but there's ways to bring out masculine and feminine qualities in any style.
Thankfully for you, both these styles are really more anatomically correct than other anime/manga, so your studies should be immediately applicable. All you should have to do is stylize the facial features a bit.
Your submission this week (and others, as I vaguely recall) has a very rectangular silhouette and body frame. Women are more curvy, even young girls. Practicing the shoulders, armpits, and hips can especially help bring out the more feminine features.
Good luck!

Bentou Vento/Vyrien
+1 Kitten4u
Fast feedback
Vento: I was thinking to talk something about the background, that part where Sixten noticed a perspective error I noticed that it is hard to say if there is a brick wall or a brick road there. Anyway it is awesome, that little Futo :3
Kitten4u: It looks fantastic, I love starry skies :P Maybe you could make the drawing looks more dynamic drawing Marisa in a pose which transmit a feeling that she was moving in a high speed.
Sixten (No voting): +2
KrackoCloud: Nice job with this one, I think that you could add more details on the wood gear surface.
KazeSenshi: It's me
Desu_Cake: Her hands looks pretty small, she can barely hide her eyes with them.
Arkeden: Nice idea, it looks good, only her left breast contour looks a bit strange.
Delfigamer: I always like to think that a good drawing can express emotions without words, you could express that text just working more on their expressions and their body posture. Also you should add more details to help us to notice who are the charactetes. For example Sekibanki's shirt has some lines that are like walking red ants.
Endless Hunger: The gears on her dress don't follow the same "model"
Bound: She looks a bit masculine, her shoulders looks a bit brawny
ZillionBrain: If you worked a bit more her face you could take my vote this week, nice job.
Piranha: Her left leg looks a bit broken.
Werepuppy: It looks good but it lacks theme-centered content.
EP: Her anatomy looks a bit off.
KazeSenshi: Nue the UFO Repairwoman! Right hand seems flipped. While the image is complex and tries to be active - a good thing -
After doing this drawing I thought "Oh it looks that her arm is broken and she is holding it like when you are hurted in Resident Evil", so I think that the problem is the arm position :P
KazeSenshi: Cutesy as usual. I'm really excited to see your art evolve in the future tbh. I like the steampunk UFO idea. The face looks a bit dented/deformed on the left side. It seems to me like you have a solid idea but your hands aren't transferring it to paper confidently. Just general practice and I think you'd improve quite quickly. The reason I put this above Vento/Vyrien 's was because 1) they're already going to win, which I realize is a stupid reason, and 2) because if this were done in the same quality as their submission, I think I would like it more. Of course, dealing with ifs is a bit ridiculous when I should just be comparing the submissions themselves, but I'm a bit torn. I just like it, how about that?
I always feel unconfident while drawing because I am afraid to do some mistake :V
Soon I am planning to finish my undergraduate course and buy a drawing tablet to forget problems with erasers and liquid paper :)
PS: I enjoy Sixten's perspective feedbacks
-
Haha, that's kind of funny.
But pursuing a style that you like is a good thing. Don't give up.
Indeed. Stylistic influence and adaptation is an underappreciated portion of traditional artistic approach.
Of course having more variety in stylistic portfolio helps.
Your submission this week (and others, as I vaguely recall) has a very rectangular silhouette and body frame. Women are more curvy, even young girls. Practicing the shoulders, armpits, and hips can especially help bring out the more feminine features.
I've received quite a lot of stiff body pose comments on past work, and a few extra for shoulders. So yeah, adjusting that's in order.
After doing this drawing I thought "Oh it looks that her arm is broken and she is holding it like when you are hurted in Resident Evil", so I think that the problem is the arm position :P
I think it's just the arm rotation. Would make more sense to have the palm facing the viewer.
I also realised I didn't finish my comment on your work. :V It does try to be complex, as I said earlier, but what I forgot to add in my post was that it's a bit hard to judge the focus. It seems a bit too hectic at the current moment.
I always feel unconfident while drawing because I am afraid to do some mistake :V
Same here on more instances than I can count, including most of the submissions here. It seems I'm forcing myself to draw in such a manner. :V

Sorry for the delay, guys! It's been a busy day.
Guilty Alice Week 7 Results!
The winner is...
Vento/Vyrien!
Was it any surprise? :U
And second place goes to KrackoCloud.
Good job, Kracko.
Vento and Vyrien: Decide on a theme by Sun, Jun 16.
Others, feel free to throw in your own ideas for the next theme! I think that would be a good practice from now on.
-
Throwing an idea in - how about Touhou hats/garments/misc items on non-Touhou characters? I think expanding the character portfolio is good.
-
I want mafia touhous in a kingly manner
-
How about comics for a change
I want Star Wars characters lost in Gensokyo, 5-komas
-
i was going to suggest the theme to be stylized minimalism with restrictions, in the case that there is a template, and it is a circle, so something like this http://puu.sh/3fBP6.jpg , in which the aim is to see how you can draw a 2hu in a circle.... it doesnt mean you have to draw a fullbody or anything detailed/complicated, its up to you!! ^q^
so like basically a "fit your touhou in a circle" theme, try to keep it to 3 colours
OH BUT THEN
I want mafia touhous in a kingly manner
I LIKE THIS
so you guys vote
-
Hurngh. This is a hard decision.
Mafia sounds like a lot of fun, but we haven't worked with templates before, so that could be a cool experience too.
I'm not really helping here, am I :U
-
How come I have missed so much of this? D:
Anyway, I say mafia Touhous.
-
I say Minimalism because I only draw using 2 colors and it seems to spend less time, so I could spend more time on my final project and on my final exams :ohdear:
-
Seems like from now I'll have more time to draw, so here's my vote - minimalism.
-
Minimalist approach sounds pretty fun.
-
Minimalism!!
Sounds fun and different from what we've been doing so far

Since we've hit the theme deadline and Vento called for a vote, I'm just going to go ahead and go with what the majority voted for.
Week 8: Minimalist Circle
Drawing must be contained in a circle. Be clean and minimal.

Count me out of judgement on this one. I'm not entirely content with it being a proper entry. (criticisms, however, are encouraged nonetheless)
+2 K4U
Simplistic approach works very well - gives just enough details to decorate, but not too many so that it detracts from the general style.
+1 Pirate
Well-approached, both stylistically and pose-wise. Not too many details, but the ones that are there are well played for the most part. A few of them could be cut out without detracting too much from the overall form.
+cookies Suikama
Recursion. Recursion. Recursion. While the figure is overall decent, I feel that the shading conflicts with a minimalist appearance.
-1 HakureiSM
For lack of participation. Get working!
Desu_Cake: Figure is well implemented, and stylistically it fits. I do believe one more detail could've been added, namely the silhouette of the parasol. As it stands now, the parasol appears to take up the entire background.
Sixten: That would make a great pin-up button, but I feel Reisen is too detailed for the style.
Arkeden: Good interpretation on the theme. Something about the sparks coming from Sekibanki's eyes doesn't resonate well for some reason.
KazeSenshi: Could be good for a colouring book. Cleaning up the lines, darkening the background, and maybe removing the hatch pattern from her shirt would help.
Freeze-Ex: Looks brilliant. But I can't by any means call this minimalist.
Merp: GJ not drawing Sakuya. :V It's pretty well done and minimal in colour usage, but I feel there's still way too many details to match the requested style.
Vento: Nice outfit and good thematic interpretation. Good attention to detail too - just enough to flesh out the character. Shirt shading seems to have too much contrast.
Delfigamer: The style does fit. But the body - particularly the abdomen and hips - appears to be flattened. Get to basic pose practice.
Pasu: That would make a great button. Reducing the details on Sakuya and increasing the contrast of her outline might help the style a bit more.
Nia: Very interesting take on the subject - adds complexity to the characters in a stylistically appropriate way. Koishi's eye doesn't seem to serve much purpose in the picture other than as completeness filler.

Desu_Cake: If I had to say, simply perfect and perfectly simple
Kitten4U: Same as Desu_Cake. The black and red really bring out an eerie night vibe
EP: It's minimalistic, though not effectively, I think. Otherwise, same advice as usual.
Delfigamer: I always try to spell your name as Delphigamer for some reason. Anyway, it's not bad, but like EP, the minimalistic style choice serves no purpose. Personally, I feel that there should be a reason why one would choose a certain style over another, especially if you choose to forgo detail and decide to use a minimalistic approach. I'd say minimalism generally tries to emphasize certain key qualities of whatever it's trying to portray (or use the minimalistic style to make an artistic point).
Nia: I decided to append myself here because I felt a bit hypocritical after typing the above. Can't say mine is quite minimalistic either.
Others:
Sixten: What I like the best about this is that black guitar jack in cord
Arkeden: Unique, I like it
KazeSenshi: Being that it's just a pencil outline, I can't really say that it's minimalistic or monochromatic (art-wise)
Freeze-Ex: I just realized that this was a gif; I thought my screen brightness was glitching out, haha. This makes me think that Patchoulli has a crystal ball so she can check up on Flan from time to time. I like the messy ink brush-y wings
Merp: I think you're getting better at hair. It looks a lot smoother and like it's flowing. I like the picture in general (and also her bone bat wings).
Vento: I you made mug coasters with this design, I'd totally buy one. It has that noir-ish flavour to it, and the brown makes it quite pleasing to look at. (also, kakkoii, technically)
NotaPirate: It looks pretty cool
Pasu: Same as NotaPirate. I think you're getting better too.
Suikama: Looks cool. But I can't help but feel whether the concept makes sense in the context of her character.
Forgive me, people near the end. I'm starting to get tired of writing this since I started like an hour ago.

The nickname had been used during those old times when I misspelt Delphi (programming language, derivative of Object Pascal) as "Delfi". Haven't got a reason to change it since then. :V

Guilty Alice Week 8 Results!
The winner is...
Suikama!
With Kitten4u at a close second!
Looks like we got a new winner this week! Congrats to Suikama.
Also, backing HSM here. Please remember that art is voluntary - fun is voluntary. Continually annoying someone into playing GA completely ignores the reasons the game was even started.

oh shit what *-*

Okay I got it
Week (9): Touhou Koumakyolo - Embodiment of Swaggalicious xX666Devil666Xx
Draw Touhou if #yoloswag culture invaded Gensokyo(lo), where things like shutter shades, baggy clothing, excessive bling, miniature snoop dogg/lions, and an overall disregard for basic human dignity have taken over.
For example (http://image.blingee.com/images18/content/output/000/000/000/780/739155404_727418.gif) (note: don't actually use blingee, draw that shit yourself :V)

-
Missed the vote for Week 8 because my cable modem burned out and I had no home internet for 3 days.
Anyway, while I'm glad someone finally beat the Drama Queens, the winning entry didn't seem particularly minimalist to me, although I admit it was quite clever. If I had voted, I would have given +2 to the runner-up, Kitten4u, whose entry was both well drawn and very minimalist. I've said in the past that I'm not a fan of Kitten4u's coloring style, but the different style in the latest entry allowed me to get past my bias and acknowledge that he/she is actually pretty good.
So anyway, I'm not too familiar with the hip-hop fashion that is the theme for week 9, but here goes:
Oklahoma City 9 (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/okc9.jpg)
Oh, and don't vote for me.

Why do you post an entry every week after you 'resigned', then beseech that people 'don't vote for you'?
That coupled with the strangely constant complaining about the group you call 'drama queens' carries an interesting implication on your intentions

-
Why do you post an entry every week after you 'resigned', then beseech that people 'don't vote for you'?
That coupled with the strangely constant complaining about the group you call 'drama queens' carries an interesting implication on your intentions
I wish I could take it easy and play without worrying about winning or losing, but my personality isn't wired that way - if I have a chance to win a contest, I'm going all out. I wish I could just quit completely, but I love the game too much for that. This kind of setup where I play the role of a retired (and ringless) Hall of Famer who plays merely to help teach the younger generation is the best thing for me.
As for my fixation with the Drama Queens, I simply think of them as the one really good sports team that always beats my favorite team. They're just a team that's fun for me to root against, nothing more. Do you think I don't give them the respect they deserve?
-
But in this kind of setup you're not playing at all, because playing a competitive game by definition means competing. So you're just dropping a random piece of art every week. Which by itself doesn't really help 'the younger generation' at all, since it doesn't add competitive value. Might as well stick to constructive criticism, or join the game proper.
You also refer to yourself as a 'Hall of Famer', but you didn't win any of the weeks, and there's no such established hall of fame, formal or informal. This comes off as a cry for recognition, honestly, and not much else.
Sorry, just this is all very strange. Before you said you were retiring because of time constraints, which is perfectly natural, but then you keep submitting a piece every week. Why don't you join the game properly? You have enough skill, there's no reason to fear diving in.
-
I said "ringless Hall of Famer", which is a term used in American sports for someone who is recognized for their contributions to the game despite never having won a title. Championship winners generally receive elaborate rings in addition to the trophy that their team gets. While I admit that I do want recognition, I have no illusions about my failure to achieve victory. I think my contributions are appreciated, even if I don't want them to be eligible for judging. And I do generally put forth a good effort in criticizing the work of others.
Also, the time constraints I was talking about are real. Back before I retired I would spend a whole weekend creating pieces for this contest. These days I just pick a random sporting event and draw during the commercial breaks, and my entry is done in a few hours.
Have I offended you and not realized it? You seem to be unusually critical of my desire to only half-participate in this thread.
-
I'm sorry for not knowing US sports jargon too, I'm not from the US.
As for your contributions, let me rephrase what I meant earlier: your submissions here are as appreciated as any other loose piece of work in the board. I think you'll get more recognition by posting them in the PYA thread, on your own. Or well, just entering them in the competition, since they're done anyway.
I''m just curious, I have no reason to be offended. I'm the full-time spectator here :V
-
Just a heads up that since Freeze-Ex has got a contest (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,15072.0.html) going on, there will be a brief pause between this GA round and the next.

@HakureiSM: If you're curious, you deserve the long answer.
I announced my retirement because "comic season" was upon me - last year, I started in July 2012 in order to have a 50-page book printed in time for the convention in March 2013. This has proven to take up around 16 hours a week - which doesn't seem like much until you realize that I have an actual job on the side. When this season arrives, I usually don't have time for anything else. Ask my friends from the game store and from college - I disappear into my room for months at a time.
Because of a frantic deadline rush at the beginning of 2013, I decided to get comic season started earlier than July this year, and retired from Aliceball to give myself more time. However, I was then recruited by Totaku for his scroll project. (Unlike other people who volunteered, I was somehow sought out because of my reputation as a background artist.) At the same time, my (real-life) brother recruited me to do the invitation and decoration designs for his wedding, and you can't say no to family. I decided I might as well put off comic season until July like last year.
However, the scroll project and the wedding invitations, while time-consuming, ended up being less time-consuming than comic season, and so I did have 3 hours a week to devote to Aliceball. Because I had retired before I knew that 3-hour submissions were perfectly acceptable, for a short time I considered coming out of retirement. But I knew that eventually the 16 hours a week would happen, and decided to embrace the role of Reggie Miller or Charles Barkley, basketball stars who continued to be active in the game despite having retired from formal competition (and having never won a championship, much like myself). That way I could enjoy the game while I still had time to give it, without me (and the scroll project, and my brother's wedding stuff) suffering the pressure of having to play to win.
And guess what: July is here, and I've started working on my comic for the 2014 convention. You won't see another Aliceball submission from me for the next six months.
Hopefully now that you see the whole picture, my actions will make a bit more sense. My retirement wasn't a lie, it was just delayed for a few weeks.
@Vento: My knowledge of Japanese is somewhat limited, so while I think Miko is saying "With this, we will end the authority of the ruling class," I'm not sure what you're trying to convey with this. I also know "Noblesse Oblige" means "the obligation of the nobles (to help others)". At first I thought you were referring to my obligations as a self-proclaimed Hall of Famer, but seeing the change to your avatar makes me think you're referring to your obligations instead. Are you saying you're willing to help me? If so, I appreciate it.

+1 EP
+1 Vento
Vento's looks astounding, but it's hard to really see mafia vibes going on.
EP's is a good fit with the theme. Also, it has a joke, which is always a plus :U
Kaze: Not bad, but I can't really tell which Touhou this is. Tenshi? Not sure what her right hand is doing,either.
Desu: The situation you were trying to portray is pretty creative. A problem that stood out to me was the eyes - they don't have much emotion in them, and don't fit well anatomically with the side-view faces.
-
+2 EP
+1 Vento
I was almost giving +1 to both but Vento's drawing looks pretty confusing because of all that extra black lines, so I gave + 2 to EP.
Desu: The situation you were trying to portray is pretty creative. A problem that stood out to me was the eyes - they don't have much emotion in them, and don't fit well anatomically with the side-view faces.
+1
Kaze: Not bad, but I can't really tell which Touhou this is. Tenshi? Not sure what her right hand is doing,either.
You can see that she is Mokou because of the long hairs with ribbons at the points :V
BTW I think that I put too much elements in this drawing so it looks confusing too. She is carrying her jacket with the right hand.
-
Pretty quiet this time!
+1 KazeSenshi
Among the other submissions this seems to address the theme best.
Could tell it was Moko after seeing the ribbons. Seems a bit unusual that she'd have the shoulder stock on the far side of her arm. Right hand was strange too until you pointed it out.
Vento: Quick and dirty indeed! The mafia vibe exists to a degree, but this only applies to the characters' base forms. The rest...smothered in overloads of lines that makes it tough to read.
Desu_Cake: Clever application attempt. A change in outfit would be needed to really give that feel, however. The eyes and Kaguya's mouth appear strange.
-
+2 EP
I really like dat Reimu. And I think this one was just best done out of all of them. And funny.
-
Rather quiet round this time, huh? That's not bad, though.
Guilty Alice Week 11 Results!
The winner is...
EP!
Vento in second place!
Congrats, EP! You've got two days to choose the next theme.

WEEK 12: trade_hakurei_shrine
Draw either TF2 characters with Touhou attire, or vice ? versa. (above image is a hasty Gmod pic made for clarification)
Point out which character(s) and items you decide to use - for instance, Spy + Koishi's hat on left yeah it's really a Madame Dixie for Pyro
, and Reisen + Max's Severed Head (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Max%27s_Severed_Head) on the right. Further combinations and fusion are welcome :P
For information regarding TF2 consult its wiki (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Main_Page).

Just some simple questions here.
People, do you just start drawing? Like, "Nah I want to start drawing!" and end up like super drawers?
I couldn't sleep one night and felt, "Hmm, this is a good opportunity to start the long journey to draw a drawing I am happy with" and so I drew three drawings. (and they were terrible)
Is it so that experience and skill comes over time? I am curious, because I don't know if I should spend time drawing or not. :(
-
You won't draw anything if you don't draw, that's for sure.

Wrong thread, first off. For us to better give advice, could you upload those three drawings to the Art Tips thread (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,12285.0.html) and re-ask your questions there?
You won't draw anything if you don't draw, that's for sure.
Well, I must state, this is quite an astounding observation! :flowerpower: :getdown: :flowerpower:

Never underestimate practice. This should honestly go without saying - practically every skill in the world requires loads of it, even just to be proficient.

Someone draw an au where every artist on this board is a drawer. The bigger artists can be super drawers.
-
Wrong thread, first off.
Well, I sat for some time looking for the right thread, and I landed here. But thanks anyways.
-
Will be needing extension for this, least through weekend.
-
It seems like people are getting busier now that summer's over.
Deadline extended to Sep 10.
I was hoping we could wait for the second thread to make a permanent deadline extension, but I think after this game I'm going to start making things 2 weeks by default. Of course, this means I'm going to have to get rid of the "Weekly" part of the title.
-
Look its my first entry ever!
Done traditionally tho :V
-
Put this in the general art thread first, thinking it needed too much TF2 fandom knowledge to make it count. But Kracko persuaded to put it in here too anyway.
Then a work that could qualify for the current Guilty Alice (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43561671/alice_crates/aya_in_scoot_army.png), but I feel it's just too entrenched into the TF2 fandom to count. (reference) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqDaMSk00wA). Moreover that fad's been dead for a bit already.
-
+2 for EP's entry, I love how it comically blends the TF2 and Touhou aesthetics. Also, fad entry.

4 hats means +4/2 Nicole
-
My original idea (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43561671/alice_crates/youkai_scum_to_hang.png) was a bit more ambitious, based on the last panel on the recent TF2 comic (http://www.teamfortress.com/tf01_ring_of_fired/). That didn't come to be due to technical errors. ...and I have no idea my actual submission came to be. :V
4 hats means +4/2 Nicole
I only count 3 - and only 1 if we're to consider it as an inventory item (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Towering_Pillar_of_Hats). Aya has a stock hat and thus doesn't count. :V
+2 NicoleArtist
I like the colouring in particular, and the image shows a funny situation.
KazeSenshi: Funny use of the Pickled Paws (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Pickled_Paws). Could actually see a Tei Scoot as a possibility now like a ittle bunny, scurryin' around eatin' yer lettuce and berries (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/4/42/Demoman_dominationscout05.wav?t=20100625230327).
KrackoCloud: Neat rocket launcher, and a good potential design for future cosmetics and weapons.
Vento: Silly, but it looks more like a TF2-themed Minecraft skin than a TF2 object. :V

Guilty Alice Week 12 Results!
The winner is...
A TIE! KrackoCloud and EP!
Nicole Artist in second place! Down by just one point!
Both winners get to provide a theme. Players can choose to draw either or both combined.
If anyone has any ideas for the next theme, let me now. I don't really have any ideas right now.
I'd also like to mention that next round will be the first of 2-week rounds.
-
so we've gone from drama queens always winning to you almostalways winning your own contest :getdown:
-
I was thinking about some simple theme, without using extern references (only touhou) and with a cute factor to attract more artists, something like "Sleepy 2hus" :P
-
I was considering food service and/or advertisements as a next theme for some reason. :V
Minor nitpicking here, but going by my and Nicole's tally of the votes I should be tied with Kracko...I take it this pre-voting stage vote isn't being counted in the official tally?
+2 for EP's entry,...
Not that it's a problematic issue, though. I'm fine with him deciding the upcoming theme either way - though next time ties occur, I'd advise tiebreaker votes or some default system to determine the next decision.
-
fall casual 2hus?

OH! I'm so sorry. I completely forgot about that! Usually I just go to the entry post and tally everything afterward mindlessly.
But! It IS a tie! I'll go fix this right away!!
... By the way, in the case of a tie, winners both just provide a theme, and players can choose to draw either or both combined.
EDIT: Normally, if a player wins twice in a row, he/she has to give up the theme-deciding power to the next best-voted player. That being said, double themes haven't been done yet and it sounds like fun, so you can still choose. It's kind of a hassle to correct stuff twice. :V
-
All right then, thanks for clarifying. Now to decide on something else that can work, otherwise I'm defaulting to my earlier food/ads idea.
-
If anyone has any ideas for the next theme, let me now. I don't really have any ideas right now.

I forgot to add a deadline for the themes. Let's come up with something by Wed, Sep 18. Tuesday would be more preferable, though.
I was thinking about some simple theme, without using extern references (only touhou) and with a cute factor to attract more artists
This is a good way of thinking, actually.
What about a "tragedy" theme? Draw something with feels. It's not cute, but it doesn't need references. It'll be like the "insubordination" round.
... That or I might go for a JJBA theme . It needs to be done at some point.
-
Interesting ideas; I'm all for the JJBA one when the time comes. :3
Considering that AWA's in 2 weeks and this event is now biweekly..I'm considering more east-west crossovers. Touhous on tourism, maybe?
-
... That or I might go for a JJBA theme . It needs to be done at some point.
Wait some months to go for this theme, I didn't watch it yet :P
-

Oh I have a so good idea on this theme!
Now I need to stop being lazy and draw it somehow. ._.
-
I like the tragedy idea.
-
Alright then. I'll just stick with that. I'll probably make it broader to include bittersweet feels.
... If someone manages to plausibly combine this with EP's food ad theme (assuming he goes with that), that would be amazing.
-
Soylant Green is 2hus. ;_;

Okay, theme decided.
[attach=1]
WEEK 13 - 2: CRAFTSMANSHIP
Touhous take to making something for their own use! A new sword for Youmu? Kokoro's new mask? Marisa putting 3 refined for another TF2 hat? Reimu's meager ramen dinner? Anything goes!
Contrary to what the image suggests, it does not need to involve Minecraft.
Of course, it can end in a tragic disaster and thus tie in with Kracko's theme...:P
-
Alright, here we go. Let me just set the record straight one more time.
This round is a double theme round!
1) Craftsmanship: Draw Touhous making stuff. Any stuff, if I'm understanding this correctly!
2) Feels: Draw a scene with feels. Whether it's bittersweet, tragedy, or a tearful reunion, just make sure it's feelsy.
You can do one entry for both themes, but only your highest voted entry will count toward the round.
Or, if you're feeling clever, you can try to combine both themes in one entry. You might get votes for well-executed creativity?
Entry Deadline: Tue, Oct 1
-
Yeah, anything can be made.
I think having two entries count - one per theme - is perfectly fine; simply specify which work shows which theme. However, votes for that artist can only count for one of his/her works, which is selected per voter.
EDIT Addendum: Final tally...I'd suggest combining results from both works to make the tally per artist.
For example, +2 Saxton (Crafting) / +1 Seija (Feels) would be accepted, but NOT +2 Saxton (Crafting) / +1 Saxton (Feels).
-
That works, but does it give too much advantage to people who make two entries over those who just draw one?
Actually, I'll just do this.
You can do one entry for both themes, but only your highest voted entry will count toward the round.
-
Hmmm feels eh? I shall attempt....
Edit: Here is mine for feels, huh... I feel that I ripped off osana reimu all of a sudden OTL
The fact that Koishi looks like Satori disturbs me.
Dem Feels (http://arkeden.deviantart.com/art/My-version-on-Koishi-s-appearance-in-the-past-402039832?)
Edit: I add a small story add the description, please excuse my err lack of grammar and bad storytelling.
edit: here is the story
Short story
__________________________
(Please take note this is supposed to be in the past)
Satori: Koishi?! What happened.
Koishi: Ahahaha...
Koishi walks into the dining room with blood running down her head.
Koishi: I tripped and fell. That's All! :3
Satori: That's very cliche Koishi.
Koishi: Bring out the food! XD
Satori: Koishi, tell me the truth.
Koishi: Who cares about-
Satori immediate interupts Koishi
Satori: I can read your mind you know.
Koishi went silent.
Satori: You tried to make friends with the other underground dwellers again didn't you?
When will you ever learn? We are well hated by them remember?
Koishi never replied.
Satori: And yet you failed again and this is what you get!
Koishi never replied.
Satori:...
Satori sighs.
Satori: Koishi, stop feeling upset about it.
Koishi: I don't feel upset about it at all! （ ?∀｀） I'm perfectly okay with it!
Satori: Koishi, you can let it go now, we will attent to your injuries now.
Koishi: Ahaha. I'm okay! More importantly I feel hungry! I want to-
Satori shoved a rice ball towards Koishi's mouth. Koishi went silent and slowly ate the food.
Tears starts to roll down her cheeks.
Satori: There... there...
Satori stroke her younger sister's cheek. The younger sister forced smile and pained expression became obvious.
Koishi was crying.
Koishi: A...Ha...Ha...Sis...
Koishi looked at her sister's hand, wrapped with bandages.
Satori:Yes?
Koishi: The... food taste... nice...
Satori gave a smile.
Satori: Of course it is... I've lost my blood while cooking it, there's no way it could taste bad.

Submitting an entry for the "Feels" category. I've always thought that Yuyuko's past was sad, what with the suicide and all.
Edit: Alright, fixed the picture so that it's right side up.

Guys this ain't hard

But what if the sideways orientation is part of the intended effect? :colonveeplusalpha:
I'll see if I can put up something before I leave for AWA.

Might I be a pain in the arse and request a week's extension?

Here's mine. :smokedcheese: (http://i.imgur.com/sBpUZ96.png)

Hey, what happened with all my gradients?
Should I export my .sai to .jpeg rather than .png?
UPD2
Huh. Apparently, it's just my tablet which for some reason reduced the picture's bitdepth before displaying. Strange.
-
Only three entries? Get ready for an extension, guys!
We haven't gotten any Craftsmanship entries to my knowledge. I'm considering cutting it, because even given an extension, there probably won't be enough entries in general to justify the theme. But I won't cut if you guys want it kept.
Either way, I'll have to reconsider how ties are dealt with in the future. It seems double themes are a little too much.
-
I'm fine with cutting the extra theme out.
...yawn. AWA was too fun, and I didn't draw anything relevant to this during that time. Extension is definitely in order.
-
We haven't gotten any Craftsmanship entries to my knowledge.
I thought Merp did both themes at once but I could be mistaken.
I tried to draw something last night but only discovered the magnitude of my incompetence. Extension's cool.
-
Once I finish my Chibi Flandre wip you can see in my art thread, I'm hoping I can submit it into the "Feel category". I'll try and finish it for tommorrow after college or something
-
Deadline extended: Oct 8
Depending on how many entries we get, we might just combine both themes into one list you can vote from.

I like to think Yuuka's one greatest fear is being sent to hell. Since she's all about nature and plants and stuff, being set on fire for eternity must especially suck for her, not to mention she's pretty darn evil and will almost certainly end up there...

And there's a ling in the sea for a carp to beware.
Threatening humans is a nature of most Youkai, if not their purpose. So, it's actually very unlikely for Yuuka to be punished for her victims.
...I thought it was Akyuu who have said that; but I cannot find a source now. ^^"
All that said, your picture itself is rather good. :3
-
Thanks!
You might be thinking of Eiki, who tells her to "frighten humans more," which is sort of "do your job." (Hurr hurr quoting touhouwiki because it's the morning and I'm not awake.) Anything else on my part is total fanon stuff that I don't demand anyone else follow ever :)

I have been wanting to play KanColle for around a month now.
stop playing kancolle, only expeditions
I will think more now. :O
-
So, will it be the longest GA round, being like a whole month then?
Makes sense, x2 theme = x2 length?
-
Finally have something to work with. Now to draw it amid a bunch of tech-related stuff in the background....
Makes sense, x2 theme = x2 length?
Probably, though only one needs to be done really.
I see, nobody follows the recommendation anyway.
Even me myself who suggested the two hours in the first place orz.
Nah, 2 hours in GA Time is more along the lines of 7 1/2 hours real time. :V
-
Even me myself who suggested the two hours in the first place orz.
It was supposed to be a fast thing, but people like to take their time. I guess it's not really in anyone's control, so I'm not so shocked or upset about it :U
Makes sense, x2 theme = x2 length?
The funny thing is that pretty much everyone's just drawing Feels. But I'm okay with that, it makes tallying simpler.
can i have extension plx i started work last week and had no timeeeeee
4 days is the most I can give. This round's been pretty long!
Deadline: Oct 12 (No more extensions!)
-
If you don't mind, I think I'll enter this one. (Since I've had some time these past few days and there's been this extension :derp:)
Let's meet again someday... (http://i.imgur.com/CxoWRbW.png)
When you are sorrowful, look again in your heart,
And you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
But love leaves a memory no one can steal.
EDIT: I forgot to add a signature in the corner~

Wow good.
Vvvveeeennnnttttoooo, your entry will better be worth your month of time!

Not in the best shape or form lately, so this (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43561671/alice_cookie_jar/oh_merde.png) is the result. Merde.
Had to remove the background layer crapfully due to a bad colour choice at first, so there's some aliasing and such in places.

Definitely a lot more newcomers and sketch-like works. Pretty good to see both.
+1 Kil:
Yandere much? The facial expression and background are done well. I'd like to see different kinds of lines next time, both in terms of width and pressure (ie. whether the line looks the same throughout or varies in the stroke). That would make future works even more expressive and less stiff.
+1 Pasu:
Great use of the Pasuhead and facial expressions - entertaining to read. Not much else to say :V
Arkeden:
Made a lot more sense with the backstory comments. The blurriness of the tears doesn't seem to mix well with the comparatively sharp lines prevalent in the rest of the image.
Merp:
Good build-up and espresso. Plus double theme entry! :V
Delfigamer:
It is an interesting attempt at colour and shading, but I feel that the shadows could be more saturated - otherwise, they look muddy.
KazeSenshi:
I'm not sure whether to read her facial expression as that of sad ambivalence or the beginnings of an emotional breakdown being surpressed initially.
Desu_Cake:
Simple and effective. It may not tell much about the emotion's cause, but we can certainly imply the feeling.
Alcor:
Yuka's desparation makes itself pretty apparent - but it appears she's holding up her entire body by her grip and toes. That ought to hurt a bit!
Oh, and Shiki's totally the King of Spades (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43561671/alice_crates/king-of-spades.png). :getdown:
Genso:
I like the scene portrayal and layout. A little more line contrast from the background would help with legibility.
Freeze-Ex:
FANTASTIC IMAGE, high fives all 'round! :toot: :flowerpower:
-

Merp's is also a craftsmanship entry, iirc.

Genso:
I like the scene portrayal and layout. A little more line contrast from the background would help with legibility.
It's actually supposed to contrast less in some areas compared to other parts since I intended it to look a bit faded like old parchment since this was a "tragedy of long life" type of scene (but being the complete novice that I am, I don't know much about coloring digitally since this is only my second attempt at drawing anything digitally).
-
+2 EP
+1 Pasu
EP's probably gave me the most feels, though I admit the text was probably more powerful than the image itself.
It was a tough decision between Pasu and Merp. Both did great comics AND got craftsmanship in! In the end I chose Pasu's just because it was a little more sentimental, while Merp's was more inspirational and less feelsy.
Kii, KazeSenshi, and Desu Cake also get some honorable mentions. Your drawings are great!

Guilty Alice Round 13 Results!
The winner is...
Pasu!
With Genso in second place!
Pasu, you should know how it works by now. You've got 'till Saturday for the new theme.
Feel free to discuss theme ideas, guys.
Also, it turns out we're pretty close to the end of the thread! We've come a long way.

someone suggested to me a kancolle crossover theme, but since I already forced everyone to draw sailor suits i'm thinking of something akin to the thread's original spirit of 2hu + expression, what do the rest of you think?

The next thread should be named "Guilty Vento: 'Could I get an extension' edition". :V

What is kancolle?
I fear this'll turn to just "draw 2hu as a battleship". At least what I know about KanColle is that it is a card game by Kadokawa featuring battleship-chans and https://yande.re/post?tags=kantai_collection
Hm... hot springs? Tsundere Patchy? Well, how about anime stamps in general?

someone suggested to me a kancolle crossover theme
I was actually considering this had I won, though I would have justified it with the theme "costume switch," but an expressions theme is fine as well, I need to work more on this type of thing.
(didn't expect to win over gensou's)
I'll take this as a compliment :3
-
Costume redesigns?
-
No interest in Kancolle, myself, but that won't stop me from participating.
Expressions again? Well...if that is the case, I suggest trying for comically embarrassing moments. Alcohol usage preferred but optional. :P
-
ok after watching kill la kill,
embarrassing
Costume redesigns?
COMBIIIIIIIIIIIIINEEEEEEE
GA 14: Draw any short-haired 2hu embarassed at being forced to wear something... they don't want to

Actually the above comparison is really obvious l|lOTL
Does Seija even count as having short hair? Oh well. Guess I took the easy way out!
Also, I'm Fauxy, Kracko's buddy. He's been trying to drag me in here forever. Are you happy now, huh? Betcha didn't think I'd participate in THIS of all themes!

But that's what we have a NSFW tag for, right? :V
I mean, not that NSFW is encouraged but considering the themes of the show
Well I guess it's up to everyone to decide for themselves when they enter! 'w '

I wasn't expecting to see pasu suggesting NSFW tag, I am shocked :P
BTW can I draw long-haired touhou with a short haircut?
-
I guess as long as it's moe everything will work. :V

mai waifu in my waifu from another game's clothes plus embarassment moe take all of my point vyrien ;-;;;;;; and that KLK reference too
and the ones I couldnt decide to give my +1 to, so erm no +1 from me this time

vento - :V
610 - adorable, ribbon chain moe (esp that su-san)
desu_cake - this almost got my +2 because of the similarities of eiki and satsuki but then... good job anyway!
The Box - v cute shy blushing marisa ;w ;
fREEEZE I SAID SHORT HAIR ;-; dat miko tho
So I was thinking about something, seeing as there are no formal rules about entries not abiding to the theme, do we do something about it, or just let it be?
two ways i thought of:
-to penalise the art's final score in one way
-let the voters decide whether to penalise the entry by not voting for it or giving it a lower score
highly likely it'll be the latter since it fits the more casual nature of GA, right :V

Well it seems that I actually didn't lose that much progress after all (to be honest I didn't actually check the sai file after cancelling the shut down so yeeeeeeeeeeeah :V) so I think I'll actually do that!(thank god crisis averted)
-
+1 Fauxy: Not too familiar with Seija (or any of the new characters), but this is well drawn and has a believable expression of embarrassment.
+1 Freeze: Very well drawn and smoking hot. Would have been +2 if you had followed instructions. The long hair aside, this looks more like "Ran and Chen are embarrassed that Yukari is wearing a cat girl outfit" than "Yukari is embarrassed to be wearing the cat girl outfit".
Delfigamer: Is that supposed to be Mokou? And exactly what is so embarrassing about her outfit?
Vento: Looks like you spent less time on this than on your other submissions, but it's still very well drawn as usual.
The Box: Well drawn and cute, but doesn't stand out to me.
Desu: Could have shown more of the hands holding the rod.. Nevertheless, both the expression and the outfit are great.
Vyrien: Fantastic drawing and expression. Almost got my vote.
EP: The horizon line for a shot like that is usually close to the eye level of the characters. You should have the scenery elements converge to a point on that line (http://www.houseofsixten.com/stealth/cirno/illusion/aya.jpg). While you're at it, fix Aya's right arm. Anyway, good concept, and the chicken masks are well drawn.

It's supposed that she never worn a skirt.

Indeed, perspective errors everywhere D:. Haven't practiced enough with scenes, presumably.
The arm was definitely off - the originally intended pose was different, but became poorly adjusted after hand errors.
-
+1 Vento: Aw man, I love sketchy colored images. The movement with the steam coming out of Miko's outfit was portrayed really nicely.
+1 Vyrien: Tojiko really looks embarrassed! Kudos for that great expression. I gotta say that Miko in sensei's stripper pose really took the cake for me haha~
Sixten: Jeez, that's really cute. Like, really cute. I honestly had a hard time deciding between you three but I've been very into KLK recently so I guess that unintentionally skewed my judgement even though I know we're supposed to vote based on the theme at hand ;_;
Delfigamer: Mokou's expression's not bad, but I think just a tiny bit of shading or base coloring could've gone a long way! Keine was a nice touch, though.
YuniChikako: Nice Marisa! I like the outfit you chose for her--pretty cute!
Desu Cake: Now that someone's mentioned the Satsuki-Eiki parallel, I can see the resemblance! The cell shading's nice and I think the image channels the theme pretty well.
Freeze-Ex: Another great sketchy image. She looks a little more drunk than embarrassed, though. Also long hair :\) But the expression and movement's nice! miko wat're you doin
EP: I didn't know Cluckin' Bell was a thing but it looks hilarious! I'm not gonna talk about proportions or perspective or anything since other people have already pointed it out also i don't know how they work but the idea behind the image is an interesting and different take on the whole "embarrassment" theme and I like that.
First time voting; hope I did things right! Man, I really like this thread. Everyone's drawing styles are so cool ;w;

so i dont rly mind having point deduct

This was a lot harder to decide than I thought. Ended up not being able to decide on a +2 for four candidates, so I decided on just two +1.
Vyrien +1: Loved this one a lot and it just made me laugh. The expression is wonderfully portrayed and it even has some Kancolle-ness in it :V.
Vento +1: Given that I've been into KLK as well (like half the thread here), just loved this one.
Sixten: Had a tough time deciding for this one as well. I liked it a lot but I felt that more embarrassment would have made it for me.
Fauxy: Wanted to vote for this one as well. Seija's expression was well drawn and the crossover was really brings to mind certain scenes in KLK for me.
Didn't make it due to midterms, but hopefully I'll be less busy for next round.

Vyrien!

Vyrien, you know what to do next.
i think entries that doesn't follow the rule should get penalty like 50% of the point or -2 point something like that
i am just having fun in the GA for now
too full with commission so cant rly apply input on the GA
so i dont rly mind having point deduct
like pasu say it's all about casual and participation |OwO>/
Looks like we're all pretty much on the same page. The voters so far seem to have done a pretty good job on voting for things that fit the theme, so there's no real problem yet. I'll leave it at that.
This thread has almost reached 1k posts!
I suppose we can leave this thread out for a while longer, but the next round is going to be on a whole new thread! See you guys there.
E: There's a new thread. Get to it, guys.
