Introduction
Good afternoon, quarantined friends.
Since DE has now been out for a while now and we can probably all agree that it is very pretty, I would like to host a screenshot competition. The aim is to make beautiful sceneries, landscapes and images with the in-game graphics (scenario editor) and maybe polish them with some editing. Showcase the game in all it’s beauty and glory and love to detail.
Categories
The Competition will have three categories with a theme each. This is to open up different directions to go in with your image. The themes are quite vague so there's still plenty of space for the imagination!
This Category focusses on a nice overall atmospheric landscape. Be it a picturesque farming village on the shore, a mystical jungle landscape, the golden towers of a legendary city or whatever place you can imagine, in the hottest desert or on the icy shores of the tundra. Can you give the image it's own feel and mood?
In this category it would be nice to see large battles or small skirmishes, showing the fighting aspect of the game. The heroic defence of a castle, the conquering of a whole empire, the fierce fighting of Imperial armies…
This category focusses on the eye candy, the 4k graphics, the flowers in the grass, the small stories of humble villagers or the tale of one brave knight… You can tell a story of individual units, use the zoom in function, create a detailed microcosmos, whatever your heart desires.
The Rules
How to Enter
Post your image in this thread, and in the post please state:
Sunday 17th of May, 23:59 GMT extended to Sunday 31th of May, 23:59 GMT
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask
Choosing a Winner
A winning image will be chosen for each category using the following criteria:
All images will be judged by the judges and awarded a score of 1 to 10 for each criterium, the average will then be calculated and the image with the highest score over all judges wins the category, easy enough. The judges will be Chrazini, LidaKor, HenkDeSupernerd, ZeroEmpires, robo_boro and myself. YoungPanda will be asked if there is need for a tiebreaker.
Prizes
Eternal glory and praise.
As a symbolic prize the three winners will each get a sub to a twitch channel of their choice.
