Pixel Weekly Pixel-Off

I just noticed my rank has updated to Tentacle Wrangler! That is the greatest rank ever! lol

 

Looks like LO is about to win by default

 

Perhaps everyone saw his submission and decided they couldn't beat it.

 

I don't know about you guys but I generally don't have enough time to work on a submission in a given week. This is only compounded by the fact I work unfathomably slowly.

 

And I was just uninspired by the theme...

 

I think it might be helpful to have people post what they would like next weeks theme to be in their entry.

I dislike picking a theme, and would not mind suggestions for next week.

I was thinking:
Disney
tiny scale
abstract
insects
Norse mythology

any of these work for you, or other suggestions are welcome.

 

The last 3 are actually pretty great.

 

Abstract Norse Insects!

 

Tiny Abstract Norse Insects with Tiaras!

 

I present the tiny nordic fly princess of the poo

 

...I think you just won. Seriously. This picture wins the Weekly Pixel-Off. All of it. Have my babies.

 

This week's theme: Nordic Nuance


Submit by Friday Feb 21st
make a picture based on Norse mythology. fenrir, regnorok, ice giants etc.


This Week's Winner's Pot:

*Choice of next week's theme*

If you need some inspiration check out the first season of the history channel's Vikings (second season premiers on the 27th)
Play the game Rune for ps2 or PC (one of my favorites)
definitly check out wikipidea if you have no idea what all this is outside of strange marvel adaptations

 

Interesting I'm going to do a bit of research instead of just going for the usual go-to's that everybody knows about Norse Mythology

 

Nope, Thor.

 

Haha exactly ^_^ Offhand I automatically thought Thor, Odin, Frost Giants, Dragons. ^_^ I'm just going to have to make sure I don't get my Norse and Skyrim mythologies mixed up.

EDIT: MY ENTRY
Viking ship broken down? Why not call Rán the Sea Goddess to turn it into a badass speedboat! She is mentioned to carry a net to catch all men, and I'm sure wherever she is taking this boat is not where those happy little vikings think they are going.

 

Entry: Might be a bit late in the week but Here it is

Yggdrasil, the worlds tree and the nine worlds.

World Roughly from left to right:

Jötunheimr, land of the frost and stone giants
Asgard, seat of Valhalla
Helheim, the underworld
Vanaheimr, home of the Vanir
Midgard, the lands of men
Svartálfar, lands of the black elves (dwarves)
Alfheim, lands of the elves

Muspelheim primordial realm of fire (top)
Niflheim primordial realm of ice (bottom)

 

Where's da snake.

 

Jörmungandr can be seen encircling Midgard and biting its own tail.


Another thing of note would be the rainbow bridge. There is also a raven that is sitting atop asgard (not that you could have seen it in my first post)

 

So happy Ragnarok everybody (it is supposed to be today). Grab a stein of mead and leg of turkey because today is the day Loki breaks free of the serpent. Yes, soon Fenrir will swallow the sun (it could have already happened; it is too cloudy to tell). Most the important figures are going down in battle and eventually the whole of the earth will be flooded and the two survivors will have to repopulate in some crazy incestial fashion. Wait didn't that already happen with Noa and the ark. Anyway, just thought you guys wanted a heads up before the worst of it.

Also what happens in the event of a tie?

News about Ragnarok End Of The World

 

Bribery, sexual favors, etc.
