Hello everyone and welcome to the first Crimson Arena created by Forrest Imel and myself. This challenge is meant to push you to the limit and out of your comfort zone and make you produce a kick ass piece that goes straight to the top of your portfolio.

Our frist challenge is the Child of Zeus challenge. Your job is to take a child of Zeus (Athene, Apollo, Heracles/Hercules....etc) and depict them in any style and genre you want.
SO anything goes from Sci-fi hero Hercules to Steam-punk Wargod Ares.

The piece can be either horizontal or vertical. We are emphasizing Composition and Design.
here is a list of Zeus' children..he was a busy man. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeus#Consorts_and_children

Remember, the god and style/genre is completely up to you. These gods have symbols and stories associated with them that you should research to bring them to life.

You CAN depict a scene from their mythos but it is not required.

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

Must contain a character and a background that works with the character (can contain multiple characters but the god should be the focus of the image)

Must have the god's symbols somewhere as part of the design.

Must include Studies (thumbnail sketches, poses, material, mood...etc) done for the piece to be eligible to enter.

Our first guest judge is the Amazing John Silva who will look at your work and offer feedback to the winners of the Challenge.


DEADLINE IS WEDNESDAY, MAR 19th
