andrew Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 2nd SFM Contest 1st SFM Contest Winners Posted Contest ends on Sept. 5, 8PM (Pacific Time) Theme: Lights, camera, Action! That's right, this contest's theme will be based of the craziest, heart pounding, and original artwork you can do with the best looking action mixed in.There are no guidelines to this one, so feel free to use Source to your desires. Though everyone knows big explosions are the easiest way to create a sense of action, drama shots can have the same effect. This contest won't just be about giant fires and so on, but shots that send your mind spinning into imagination and are a pleasure to the eyes. Judgeing will be based upon SFM skills, staying with the theme, and originality. Pieces of work with explosions and people running around looks cool, but I favor those who can take me away from just the surface and make me want more! 1st Place Hostage - Sync 2nd Place nicerafi 3rd Place Mannhattan: Die Bottierung - 9joao6 Honorable Mentions Best StorylineThe Goodbye - Degonitz https://i.imgur.com/VDSpIAM.png Best ActionSlapping your name on every single c*nt-ass product of entertainment you get your cocky little hands on - Ificationer http://i.imgur.com/eylyHFS.png Most Bad-Ass[No title] - seenee http://i.imgur.com/lU50yHJ.jpg%5B%5Bspoiler%5D Most CreativeVivat Regina - uberchain http://i.imgur.com/rJb9byl.png Most DramaticDark Fortress: Demoknight Artorias - Hyper http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/237/8/a/dark_fortress__demoman__knight_artorias_mix__v2__by_hyperbastion-d7wlr3f.png Really great entries this round guys, the best i've seen yet!

andrew Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 I think photoshop shouldn't be allowed. Photoshop will be allowed for now, outlawing outside program use besides SFM doesn't seem right. Sorry to say, but if people want to put some extra work into their pieces I am fine with it. "small" first prize: kaw outdoorsman It was a recent unbox and I thought you guys would get a kick out of it. Also as an fyi I am doubleing the time from the usual contest dates and advertising a whole lot more, hoping to make this one of the best contests so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lywa Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I tried. It's called "Death from above" http://i.imgur.com/FLnwrXM.jpg (Linked cause I have no clue what the resolution would look like in the post. :c) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ificationer Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 This a placeholder for now, I'll upload a better version later. Its my first shot at serious photoshopping. Lots of details were brushed off without any effort as you can probably see. But I'm happy of how it looks from a smaller resolution/distance It is massively edited, so I think I'll upload the raw sfm version as well soon. I tried to go with minimum explosions and more feel of intense action. It will be known as "Slapping your name on every single c*nt-ass product of entertainment you get your cocky little hands on" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9joao6 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Well this was a whole lot of fun to make. I experimented with basically everything I wasn't sure how to create, such as particles that spawn from models, so this is basically how the final product looks like. I'm not sure if the watermark is a thing I should add or not, so I added it in case it is in fact a requirement.
