Head Texture of the Month: Ninja

Some say the pen is mightier than the sword, we'll be the judge of that.

We give you guys a theme to work with, and you have three weeks after launch to make a fantastic (512x512) head texture. The person who makes the head texture that best fits the judging criteria gets a 512x512 Head Texture Item as well as 30,000 tc and 4 st. Even if you don't come out on top, you have the opportunity to work with us and with each other to improve. Well, let’s get started!

- The winner will receive a 512x512 Head Texture Item + 30,000 Toricredits + Any Ninja item of their choosing + 2ST.
- As an optional prize, the winner will also be given the choice of creating the next month’s banner and thread art.
- The honourable mention each month will receive 2 shiai tokens and a random item.
- Winning entries and notable submissions will be happily advertised in the original post of the following month’s thread with the artists credited, as well as in a sticky thread in the Art forum.
- If you’re looking to establish yourself as an artist in the Toribash community, here’s your chance for publicity!


- Plagiarism is bad. It isn’t a matter of if we find out, it’s about when we find out. Don’t try your luck.
- If your submission looks like a joke, it will be completely ignored.
- A rough Sketch or WIP is required in order to prove that this is a head in progress and not a pre-made head that you are reposting.
- Do not submit/recycle old textures.
- Only 1 submission per month.
- Collaborations are fine, prize will be split in that situation.
- No Copy/Paste art allowed.


- You have until the 1st day of the next month to post your entries.
- Submissions must be in 512x512 resolution or higher.
- Post your watermarked flats in this thread with spherical previews.
- To ensure the head is properly judged, please make your previews for the head clear, show all aspects of the head, and try to keep watermarks somewhat non-intrustive (while still being effective).
- You are encouraged to post frequent WIPs, just make sure to verify in your post what the final product is.



After Oct 1st Judging Starts
Your entries will be judged based on these criteria:
-How well the idea fits the theme
-Uniqueness - think outside the box, it could be the difference between winning and losing.
-Execution of the idea

Once the judges have decided on a winner, a post will be made announcing the artist who won.
The post will also include CnC of other’s work to let the artists know what to improve on and what they did right.
The entries will be judged by The ES Team.



This month's theme is NINJA!


Deadline: Oct 1, 20:00 GMT+0

i think thats up to everybody himself! If he likes it or not! I made it like that to illustrate a mad look, like he's bending a bit forward

@insanity: thanks, maybe i will...
@matador: yours is pretty nice mate, i like the colors you've decided to choose, matches good! The head itself is pretty well! Good job too!

Hey try to keep the negative feedback to yourself please, everyone's art is unique, everyone has their own views on their art, so if they are happy with their results let it be, if you would like to CnC it however, I would be more than happy to link you to the art thread.
