Title: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Orenji_Reiji on June 09, 2014, 08:05:27 AM: Main:
> Task:
Create a Legion for an existing clan. No fan-clans. This means that you should make both a Legion unit and its mate. So 2 units in total per work.
Upd: Your work is an image. Real looking cards with artworks.
> Time Limit:
June 14th (Saturday) incliding that day (Until 7pm (GMT)).
This contest is not a contest for brand new mechanics and ideas. So please, try to make your cards so they could support their clan or sub-clan.
This contest is held on two our forums (this one and russian one (http://cardfight.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1217#p15713)). Such is made to increase a competition spirit and to see more interesting works.
> Each user can make up to 3 different Legions.
> Done works are not posted anywhere. They should be sent to me any way you like (PM on forums, via Skype (vladmir1997), Russian Post ~~(if you choose this option, I can't guarantee that your work will be posted, though)~~). Then after the time is over, I will post them in a special topic where you will vote.

Voting:
The voting is simple. Anyone can estimate all the published works on any of our forums using ten-point system, but only once. Your vote should be based on something. So votes like "I will give this one 10 points and this one 2 points because I want so" will be igroned. Write something so we can be sure you have read the works.
The voting continues for 2 days (15th & 16th)

Small tips:
> You can search arts you like in the internet. For example, you can use http://deviantart.com
> You can use this Photoshop template (https://mega.co.nz/#!EN8xAYJI!dbz1lEe8HUyEx35aNx8e-VllwwOgccKMV46KCMbhaVg).

Prizes:
Just symbolically. The winners (3 users that gained more votes) can choose any Sleeve in CFA and it will be added to your account.

Post by: T_RD Ellino on June 09, 2014, 08:54:13 AM: Well if it is I'm out I never find an art even close to what I want
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Orenji_Reiji on June 09, 2014, 08:54:48 AM: Yes, you should use arts for your works.

What do you mean by "any Sleeve in CFA"? Are there more sleeves besides the ones from the Lottery and the Unique Card Cover Event? Could I ask for a custom card sleeve?
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Orenji_Reiji on June 09, 2014, 09:09:35 AM: You can choose any sleeve from Sprite folder. No custom ones.
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: [ER] Patrickzzz on June 09, 2014, 10:21:30 AM: That's a creative and fun event. I liked it.

EDIT: Do i have to add all the card stuff like the text and the power on the image? Or can i just choose the art post it and add the card info below on the post? Because i can't use photoshop at all.

Post by: Jai Hearts on June 09, 2014, 12:40:28 PM: maybe next contest we can have sleeve creations.

Post by: T_RD Ellino on June 09, 2014, 03:00:45 PM: He said to PM him or do one of the other things the post said to do?
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Orenji_Reiji on June 09, 2014, 03:14:12 PM: If you work is done, send it to me in any way that is more preferable for you. Or did you mean something else?

Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: strtegistjdb on June 09, 2014, 04:25:00 PM: I just sent mine in best of luck
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: [ER] Patrickzzz on June 09, 2014, 05:24:57 PM: Most of the random arts we find online it's from a not so well-known that you can recognize game or anime etc. Is there a problem with that? Because sometimes it's hard to find original art.

EDIT: And also it is ok to not use photoshop at all and just pick the images and write the cards info?
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Orenji_Reiji on June 10, 2014, 01:11:55 AM: Once again: you should make cards.
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: strtegistjdb on June 10, 2014, 04:18:13 PM: Why isn't there a site for making the cards? Yugioh, Magic, and all of the other games have one.

man that would be awesome.

along with a virtual pack simulator.

and maybe something else im not thinking of right now.
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: ヤタ on June 10, 2014, 06:33:48 PM: The reason it doesn't exist is that no one is willing to program it :x If you want one, figure it out yourself~
Or just use photoshop \:3/

I dunno I think there's a outline for the whole process, but from what I've seen 9/10 times people just choose images they think look good and rarely stick with a theme or they don't choose the proper font or colors and it almost always comes off looking weird. Now if you were to have creation a legion contest with names/effects and that like, WITH the option of using pictures, that'd be cool.

I was asking if i could just leave the image like that and add the info below. But apparently i have to photoshop the grade, the card info, power and everything else into the image...
Since i can't do it i probably won't participate.
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Orenji_Reiji on June 11, 2014, 12:04:55 AM: I have 6 works at the moment. And I know that there will be at least 2 more. Legion Costest appeared a tought one.
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: NextGenNick on June 11, 2014, 03:05:19 AM: I think, if the legion is not broken it should be added to the game itself if the artwork is good enough and it is balanced, working with the clan. It would be a nice bonus, if I win and had the choice "never win a sleeve ever again or have your cards in the game" I'd happily play my cards than win sleeves.

I don't think that's a good idea. Some people won't like it if you use a non-existent (is that even the right word?) card, you know.

It's not the best program ever, but it's good enough i think. The card Info Box is a little bit buged and you probably wont be able to fit the "Legion 20000" part of the skill on the skill box, but since everyone knows that i think it's ok. It's not the best thing ever but the cards are totally understandable, hope that cards made using this program get accepted.

*The comments says there is no Legion symbol but the program is already updated to 3.0
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Sandy on June 13, 2014, 04:38:58 AM: Just a question here, what if the artwork we want doesn't match up? I assume it'd be okay since there's nothing like the legion art currently. Unless of course you want us to simply grab a piece of art with two people in it and then split it in half?
Title: Re: Legion Creation Contest
Post by: Orenji_Reiji on June 13, 2014, 04:58:11 AM: Because of Oohirume's and Amaterasu's Legion, shared artwork is optional now. But in that case you shouldn't put Legion icons at the bottom.

The Legions themselves aren't quite hard at all the hard part is actually finding art that even looks close to what you want,,,,
