RVET Event #55: June '12
Minecraft Art Contest

"A block of steel here..." And so it was placed. "A little wool here to decorate... And done!"
With a face glowing with pride, Bluecoat stepped back. A perfect replica of his favorite hero, Wander, in block version to decorate his own personal world, was finally complete. Someone nudged him from behind, probably to congratulate on his feat.
"That'sssss a nice ssssstatue you have there."

General Information
What: Art contest
When: June 4-25

Minecraft Art Contest Information
If you've ever had the urge to draw, paint a picture, or do a little art on MS Paint, this contest will tickle your fancy for how to create, recreate, and amaze. For those who don't own Minecraft, the Classic version is available if you click here! Our judges will certainly not discriminate based on image quality between the basics provided. Pick your piece and create away! Two types of art may be submitted and judged. 2D art and 3D models.

2D art is, as it implies, a flat surface of blocks like pixel art. Stage 1 of Mario, Pac-Man, a Minecraft recreation of the Mona Lisa? As long as it's flat, it's allowed! When submitting a 2D entry, only one screenshot will be required: a photo from the front that shows the entire piece together.

3D art is anything made where the angle matters. Make a Statue of Liberty, show us your ideal tropical paradise, or just make a giant Creeper (as long as you don't send it off to explode on someone!) When submitting a 3D entry, at least four screenshots will be required: a photo from each of the four sides of the creation.

Although both types of art have required photos, you may take as many as you please. Highlight what you want or give us the angle you like, as long as it comes with what is required. Barring obscenity and profanity, anything goes--your creativity is the limit here! The winners of each 2D and 3D will have a prize as their entry printed off in a 3d printer format, provided by Bluecoat!

You have three weeks from today's date to create and photograph your art! Get us your entry by the 25th of June, and we will judge entries by the end of the month. You may submit your entry in any format. You may submit it in this very thread, or you may PM your entries to any member of the RVET. You may also email your entry at bjbearup@gmail.com. Please include 'RVET #55' or something similar in the subject so that it does not get scrapped, and be sure to include your RV name in the email. If you play on a console that can only upload entry photos to Facebook, we will happily accept entries posted from there. Good luck, and get sculptin'!

WINNERS OF THIS COMPETITION:

2D contest: Tanksandguns' Johnny Bravo!

3D contest: Lenkai's Pond Frog!

Your prize, as I understand it, is a 3D printed sculpture of your entry. The man supplying these is our very own Bluecoat, so as winners, please PM him with your mailing addresses so he can send you your prize. Please be patient with him in receiving your winnings. Congratulations to the winners, and thanks again Bluecoat for offering the wicked cool prize!

That's true, I hadn't thought of it. No one else brought it up, either, heheh.

I guess they could take pics of their tv with a digital camera or something.

Well, statistically speaking, slightly more than a giant suckusaur. A dire one.

I hate to shatter your hopes. But yeah. Never heard of it on consoles.

I knew it had recently come to the Xbox, but had completely forgotten about it. I'm unsure as to how many people play it on Xbox, but hey. If they do, and would like to participate, we can figure it out.

I took a look into it. Looks like we can take screenshots, but the only way we can share them (as of now) is via Facebook.

Hey, Facebook sharing works. If they can be posted there, they can be saved to or moved anywhere to a 'puter, right?
Heh, ninja'd by Riptide. Never thought that would happen.

Might want to out an addendum for the Facebook option in the original post then.

As I own both the Xbox + PC one I can safely say the Xbox users are at a disadvantage.
1) There is no creative mode
2) There are no texture packs
3) There are no render mods

Right?

If anyone does, they'd still likely be playing the free online version posted at the start of the topic. Survival mode requires the gathering of resources. While a month is quite a while, it's not enough to build large, complex structures that use any uncommon material (diamond, steel, lapis, gold) in large quantities.
