So Relic Castle went down recently...
It seems like I only post here when there's something scary going on with The Pokemon Company international (TPCi), but this is fucked up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WRN0C2Nqvg I remember people being like "no profit = safe" but it seems like maybe even the stuff I have up on dA might eventually become unsafe to keep on here. What do y'all think? I know I err on the side of TPCi will eventually crack down on everything but I am also interested to hear whether people think this is being overblown or something. I've been wanting to get back to Fakemon for a while (been busy) but now I'm am wondering if that is a bad idea and if I should take down my Pokemon art...
Yeah, Nintendo is just being nice to us
Hello, I have once again come out of my underground cave system to share something. I've alluded to this in some of the comments/replies about my position on Nintendo fan games and stuff of that nature. Most of the time, I've been met with skepticism. Finally I can point to a video by a real lawyer person (not legal advice btw) which discusses how any derivative content, even the kind of fan-made 'mons we make on here, are essentially at the mercy of Nintendo to choose to pursue their rights. So yeah, please be careful if you are making fan-made Nintendo content (or any franchise for that matter), you almost definitely have no legal grounds if they take legal action. I'm really not saying this to make enemies with anyone, I want to (or wanted to anyway) make fan games. I just don't want people to get in trouble. have a nice day, I retreat once more under the ground
Contest Entry Thoughts
In case y'all were curious to why I've been silent for the past couple of days or why my contest entry is so elaborate/so high-effort, both of these are because my tablet broke. I was working on my contest entry for a while now(pretty much since the contest started, and because my tablet went pretty much entirely dysfunctional it took a long time. I'm not gonna lie one of the reasons I tried so hard was because, well yes I did want to fuel my motivation to push my designing skills, but I also actually do want to see if I have what it takes to get top cut. Before my tablet completly broke I thought I had a chance, but afterwards I got a bit demotivated but I worked so hard on this piece I had to see it through and so I... actually coloured it with a mouse :/ and yeah I don't think I've ever try-harded a contest this much before, and I might never again but I learnt so much it was definitely worth it. Anyway I hope y'all don't mind too much that I won't be able to produce art for a
I'm back after a while
For the past month or two I've been a bit incommunicado, while yes I have been responding to comments and such I haven't put out any work. School's out so what gives? Well I've been taking what you could call an unintended hiatus. I was a bit out of it for a while and I needed to take a break to figure out what I wanted to do next artistically speaking. So here are some updates to some important stuff (at least to me) about my art. 1. You're making Fakemon again. You said you wouldn't? Yeah... when I said that I was operating under a different paradigm, let's say. During the course of this break I've had a chance to rethink things, and I've opted to come back. At the time what I said was true, but afterwards things changed in a way that I hadn't anticipated at the time (in my actual life) which made me reconsider. Safe to say I probably won't make this claim again. I won't disclose what exactly happened, as it's a personal thing, but you can take a guess. 2. What about Fantom World

Did you add my entry yet? I don't see mine here..
CONTEST CLOSED
Hey guys! Lets get right into the info:
You design fakemon all the time (at least if you're entering the contest), so it's not going to be that simple! We're doing a moves contest~
What To Do
So firstly what your entry is going to be? let me explain:
Design a fakemon and a move. The move should be fitting as the signature move of the fakemon and its mechanics should have some backstory. Let me be clear, the spotlight is the move, but the design is their to tie in with the move and make it more awesome.
Draw the fakemon using the move. You'll get some points from this, based on how creative the move's look is, but the main part will be in the description where describe all the stats of the move, name a few pokemon that may also fit the move and explain the backstory.
Simply put the best duo of move and fakemon will be the winner. The fakemon and move can be any basis and any type, but the more lore you put into it, the higher your chance of winning.
EDIT 1: NO ANIMATIONS NEEDED, ONLY DRAWING, EITHER TRADITIONAL OR DIGITAL.
EDIT 2:Another thing, you can use a fakemon you've already made, but it must be cognizant to the move
EDIT 3:Remember to mention the fakemon and move's real life basis and inspiration. No inspiration might get you little credit. Anyone who hasn't yet got this can add it and resubmit.
What You Get
Lastly the place everyone skipped to: I'm not getting another premium membership what with the recent price hike, so I'm donating all my points to the winner. No second or third place, so put your A game into it. I will shoutout some honourable mentions though, if your design and lore are intriguing.
Prize 360 points and a Model sprite of a fakemon of your choosing. (I'm basically paying you big to get a sprite done XD)
Deadline 10th of September 2016 at 4:00 PM (GMT+6)
And lastly, I'm not a widely known guy, so if you could referr more people to the contest, please do, I would appreciate it a lot! Good luck!
