What do you get when our man sniffleless drops the word on a design contest for the talented denzines of the fish? You get a no holds barred battle to hold bragging rights to ride the most sleek pimped out design on a deck. With pro's and bro's alike lining up with agressive techniques and brilliant skills this is one solid contest.
The Rules
-You take a skateboard deck (one you built or a blank you bought or a deck you sanded the old graphic off. The important thing is it has to be a skateboard.)
-You come up with an idea for a graphic for the board and you put it on your deck of choice (see above). You can use any method or medium of your choosing. Paint or inks or carving/etching ,wood burning or whatever. You choose your technique and do it to that skateboard deck.
-I will make an entry thread on May 21, 2006. You have all that week of the 21 to get your photo of your entry posted in the thread. Please feel free to give a breif description of your work. Method used, idea behind, process, whatever.
-May 28, 2006 I will make a poll of all the entrants for everyone to vote on their favorite board graphic. The poll will run for 7 days. At the end of that seven day poll period the entrant with the most votes wins.
"What do I win?" You ask. Bragging rights! You can say you won the "Silverfish Graphic Contest." You also get the satisfaction of having a cool deck with a hot graphic that you made yourself. Because this is all for fun. Grins and giggles or something like that.
