You should really allow at least one color of choice, so much easier to show your personality and such if you are allowed to use a color you actually like and find fitting to yourself.
At least that's what I think.
I understand your reasoning and I would've agreed with you if I hadn't let people use a colour of their choice just two weeks ago.
It's a good point, though I'm going to keep it this way with a warm and cold colour.

Putting some new strings on my guitar now.
You're a skull? :v:
Maybe I'm getting this wrong...
In the olden days actors used to practice talking to skulls. So the skull is somewhat of a sign of art. Congratulations!
He is dead, obviously. :v:
There can be much more behind a skull than just death or mortality.
Nice skull Bftony.
Here's my entry, nice job on making the colors hard to blend Gregah.
It's supposed to be me on a rock, drawing.

Holy shit, that's fucking incredible.
Hell, it's more than that. I didn't even imagine (till Jenny and Toast arrived here) the spray can had so many uses. In fact, I will give it a try now. To see what can I achieve.
A lot of it was good usage of spray can (from what I can see) but it's not [i]just[/i] spray can, there's a lot of vertical/horizontal hatching with shades along with thick and thin lines. Really complicated from what I can see, but yeah it's a really damn awesome drawing.
I also might try out using the spray can every now and then.
Heh. I don't expect to win with this. My WIP so far:
[img]http://cubeupload.com/files/2616e6chineseyingyang.png[/img]
I feel oriental somehow. All that ying yang, feng shui and all that just seemed familiar to me [i]today[/i]. First time I do paint art with a spray can, [b]ever[/b]. Not as bad as I thought it would be.
I've never even put any of my stuff on here but I guess I gotta start somewhere.
Thanks for the compliments guys. Adeptus, I would recommend laying some mid-tone colors and an outline before going at it with the spray paint can. From there you can start to refine with smaller sized sprays or the pencil tool.

This will definitely win. In my opinion.
So uh, one finished and two wips this week?
Well this sucks, but anyways...
[highlight]Congratulations Toastador![/highlight]

Due to the lack of content this was a really easy one, and especially with the masterful manipulation of the spray tool Toastador won with a landslide. The water reflection is extremely well made and Toastador made a lot with so few colours. Maybe that was the case why so few joined, or maybe people got disheartened when a new master of MS Paint posted his work, I don't know.
There isn't a lot to write about the other pictures, Bftony really made another high quality picture that sadly didn't leave the WIP stage, but I'd love to see it finished. It was a pretty close call between Bftony and Toastador actually, but Toastador had a finished picture and Bftony did not, so that is one among a few small factors that tipped it over.
Adeptus also went with the spray tool, it sadly never went beyond the WIP stage either. I think drawing the basic shape with the colours would make it seem smother between the transitions and also take away some of that chippyness that is the spray tool. Oh well, maybe another time. :)
I'm going to let this one rest now that the holidays are here, we'll continue this on [b]Friday the 7th, 2011[/b].
Fuck! It's friday already?! I really got to finish my paints for these comps before moving onto something else because I always forget it.
Sorry Gregah.
No worries, we'll start up real fresh next competition and I still enjoy your picture even though it's just a wip.
I've just been too busy to do this one... I wish we had one over the holidays, because then I don't have homework.
Alright!
[highlight]The theme for this holidays is...[/highlight]
[b]Tragic Holidays.[/b]
Let's draw how people who might not have a lot celebrate their holidays. How does a kid without his parents or anyone to rely on celebrate his holiday? How does a prostitute who hates life celebrate her holiday? Let's draw something sad and tragic during one of the happiest and best holidays in the western world.

Because I'm such a nice guy I'm going to let YOU use any amount of colours you want, the only restriction for you now is the size of the canvas, and the theme.
Let's draw this until the [b]7th of January, 2011.[/b]
January, Gregah. I may contribute on this one - not promising anything, I am a lazy fuck and I rarely paint these days. :smith:
I wish I could use paint well. I have this excellent idea too.
I haven't been here in a little while so it was a pleasant surprise to see that I won :D Thanks!
I'll try to enter this one too, but I do have a large time constraint. (and oh boy no color limit :D)

Didn't get further then this before loosing interest. :v:
Am I allowed to use flash with the AA turned off and nothing that ms paint can't do apart from brushes
This is the [b]MSPaint forum and the MSPaint contest[/b] so I think not.
