Express yourself, impress us! Show us how well you can fuse these colours into a beautiful blend or clash of styles!
In this event, the Event Squad (ES) chooses a color scheme to work with, and you have time until 19th of December to create an amazing head texture. The person who creates the head that best fits the judging criteria receives prizes. At the bottom of the thread you'll find the exact criteria we'll be using to vote. Don't worry if you don't make it out on top, as there will be participation prizes. Now get drawing friends!
You will need to use one of this color schemes, however, keep in mind that each scheme has their own prizes
We do still have rules that are to be followed. Keep in mind we may not judge your art if it doesn't follow ALL of these rules.
- Not using any of color schemes, we want the chosen palette to be the focal point of your artwork.
- No plagiarism, this isn't tolerated at all and is severely punishable.
- Do not submit old/pre-made textures.
- A rough sketch or WIP is required to prove that it is a head in progress and not a pre-made head that you are reposting.
- Collaborations are allowed, however in this scenario prizes will be split.
- Only one submission is allowed, which also means no alts used to submit two different heads. If you're collaborating with another artist, you can only submit that head.
- Submissions must be in 512x512 or higher.
- Post watermarked flats in this thread with spherical previews. It would be much appreciated if you used Toribash Textures for 3D previews.
- If you aren't using Toribash Textures, ensure to make your previews clear, show all aspects of your head and attempt to keep watermarks somewhat non-intrusive while still being effective.
We now require at least 3 WIP images to qualify the art in the event.
(a WIP could simply be a progress stage, initial drawings or a near finished state of completion)

CRITERIA
MAPPING: Everyone understands that I believe, it's one of the the most crucial elements for a head, or any texture to look good.
THE IDEA: The most subjective category of all proposed. Essentially this will be our way of giving our opinion on how your texture captures the theme, and any complex meaning behind the texture that we can derive from it.
EXECUTION: This category focuses on the technical execution of the texture. Focal points. Good line work, shading, colour palettes.
HARMONY: This is the final category, and the most important. Our final vote on how the head comes together as a finished product with all the factors listed above involved. Typically this could be looked at as a final vote on a head in order of preference.
HUGE thank you to Saiko for creating the artwork for the event!

I always wanted to participate in this event, but for years I never managed to compete with big names in this community,I've been practicing creating textures for a few years and now it's time for my first HTOTM.
Even if I don't win, it's a personal victory to feel able to participate and compete with big names. Good luck to all <3
Greetings!
I haven't done head textures for quite a long time but here I am, whatever came out of my mind here it is!
Making art out of impulse is always my go-to so the inspirational day is finally here.
Any suggestions are welcome as I am never sure how to watermark my work or format the post, I usually just leave a small signature in my work, which is not the case this time.
Hello, this HTOTM interested me quite a bit, and I wanted to return to Toribash and give this a try :-)
The idea of abstract colors creating a fusion reminded me of Jinx when I was watching Arcane, which is my inspiration for this.
My concept was to create a comic/pop art-style head texture, using the Demolition & Acid color-scheme.
Had a lot of fun working on this project, enjoy.
