Tag Tennis

[Vicious Zen]

STILL LOOKING FOR CHALLENGERS!

So, something a little bit different...

So, what we have here, is tag tennis. Some of you might have heard of photoshop tennis before, and it applies to battles really nicely.

How it works is, one person serves up the tag, finishes it up, sends it to the next person, and they work off of that to make their own tag. They have to leave recognizable elements from the previous hit, before sending it back.

Example.
Designer1, vs Tagger1
Designer one serves up the psd
Sends it to Tagger1, where he edits it, sends it back to Designer1
Designer hits back, rinse, repeat.

Afterwards, the voting is for your pieces as a WHOLE. All of mine, versus all of yours.


I'm willing to take on anyone, and multiple people at once. Let's keep the rounds short, unless someone here thinks they can go longer. I'm more than capable of going for 20 rounds, I have before, and I'll do it again. ;p
6 rounds, for 3 tags apiece is a pretty good number. I usually work in 400 x 100, but I can do bigger if preferred. Any other details are more than wide open for me.

I'm also willing to start, if need be.

EDIT: Here are a few examples

So how does this work?

Sounds like an interesting idea. But I'm sort of lost at the last bit. What exactly do you vote for? Isn't the sig the product of both competitors works so if so, how do you vote for each other? xD I'm confused.

[Vicious Zen]

You vote for the finished products, like by the end of it, you'd have 3 tags from Designer1, and 3 from Tagger1.
Stack them all up against each other as a whole, so it would be all 3 vs all 3. You vote for which 3 are better as a whole.

Yes, it is a result of both people's work, but it's more of a test of your ability to take something given to you, and work with it, and make it your own.

Obviously, neither competitor votes.

so its kinda like a big collab battle?

i dont understand at all lol

i dont understand at all lol

I think I get it.

Step One: Designer makes a tag
Step Two: Designer sends tag to battler
Step Three: Battler uses the completed tag to make a new one
Step Four: Battler Sends to Designer
Step Five: Designer uses that tag to make a new one
Step Six: Rinse and repeat

Going off that though, I think it's not really a good idea at all, namely because a completed tag is completed in the eyes of the artist and they feel there isn't much more to do to it, that's why they're done with it.

Then don't do it, and leave it to those who aren't afraid to step outside of the box.

Here's a couple of OOOLD examples I found that I was a part of. The first 13 round one is frmo about 5 years ago, with a friend of mine, named Hope. The other one is a 3 man rotation from tagmonkey, with Cyan, and Muppets.

Let's use mine and hopes as an example, all of the odd numbered ones would be off to the left, and all the even would be on the right, and you'd vote for whichever one, as a whole is better, to you.

Edit: Can you subtract layers?

Also... can you use a layer filled with... I don't know, the colour black perhaps
