UPDATE: As this is a new community, the first iteration of this contest is extended for three more weeks. The vote will be tallied on December 21, at 18:00 UTC. Hopefully, this will provide enough time for the contest to gain a few more entries. Thanks to all of our new community members and I look forward to seeing what you all come up with!


Each Monday, beginning at 18:00 UTC, a new contest will be held in which artists may submit a work of graffiti art depicting the chosen word of the week. The artwork which receives the most upvotes by Sunday, December 21, 18:00 UTC, will be deemed that weeks winner. The winner of that week’s contest gets to pick the next word.

As this is the first week month, the first word will be: tagbloc

As added incentive, for this first week month, the winner's piece will serve as the new community banner.

Please read the rules and feel free to make a submission before the deadline. You do not have to make a submission to vote.

I figure I'll get the ball rolling. It's probably been a few years since I've actually drawn anything but, nothing wrong with knocking the rust off!

Interesting idea for a community, although I'm not sure how well a weekly contest is going to go. You might want to build up more a community first, as it can be pretty demoralising if people don't enter the contests.

I gave it a try though:

haha yeah, we'll see how it goes. I'm not opposed to extending deadlines in the beginning, if I need to. Though, I totally don't expect it to just be super popular right away either. I've always been a "if you build it, they will come" type of person, while also being aware that things can take a while to catch on.

Thanks for contributing!
