Battle #40 - Open for Voting! | New Rule, Oct 15

Battle 40

About Photoshop Battles

A subreddit for people to use photo manipulation software to create new images.

Official weekly battles are held where entries are removed for the first 24-hours to give an opportunity for more detailed submissions.

Battle winners pick the photo for the next battle (only upvotes are counted) and all entrants are given subreddit flair.


Rules for Submissions:

I. No Requests or Questions

  • Requests, such as "Please photoshop me or my friend", can be posted to /r/picrequests.

  • Questions, such as "Where else could he be?", or "What else could she be sticking in her mouth?" are not permitted.

II. Titles

  • Your title must be descriptive. Please accurately describe the subject of the photo.

  • No cliches such as "this has potential", "lets see what you guys can do", or "make this epic".

III. Image content

  • Images should be at least 500x500 pixels.
  • No technically low-quality images. Focus, framing, lighting, etc. are important.
  • No links to facebook.
  • NSFW tags must be used generously.
  • No albums or web pages, submissions must be a single image.

Submissions that do not follow the rules will be subject to removal by the moderators.

If you notice a submission that violates the rules, please report it to the mods, and send us a message letting us know why it was reported.


Commenting

Junk comments distract from this subreddit a lot more than in other subreddits that are not based on original content.

Comments that are cliché, text-only, not an original work, image macros, memes, reaction gifs, or off-topic are subject to removal by the moderators without notification.

reddiquette

Comments should be fully compliant with RFC 2119


Voting

  • Please vote based on quality of work. Lazy shops shouldn't win just because they made you laugh. You can still vote funny stuff (we can't control you) but keep in mind that people spend lots of time making some really good submissions and deserve as much recognition as the next guy.

  • Please do not downvote submissions because they do not have obvious potential. An image that does not have an easy punchline may be the most creatively inspiring to others.

Please report inappropriate content to the mods.

That looks like a lot of fun, now I want to try it.

[–]rory68 8 points9 points ago

Try it, then post pictures. And.... GO!

[–]hambone22 8 points9 points ago

I have done it down a rocky slope/shore and into a lake. It is indeed very fun during the summer, and you can get a helluva lot of speed.

[–]Kode47 7 points8 points ago

ET don't phone no hos.

[–]ncastleJC 2 points3 points ago

As far as choosing the best submission, this is probably it. It remains true to the element of the original while putting a good twist. Also, him screaming reminds me of robot chicken.

[–]Adren406 1 point2 points ago

What is that a flare gun? Barrel in his right looks massive!

[–]FinnInAJakeSuit 2 points3 points ago

It's a Taurus Judge. A .410/.45 revolver.

Creeeeepy. Looks like either some type of ape or an alien the way the eyes came out. Nice job either way.

[–]lains-experiment 10 points11 points ago

It was a young ape face I used. I just like his fearful expression.

[–]derekdanger 6 points7 points ago

You're like the Dr. Moreau of /r/photoshopbattles

[–]a_leprechaun 6 points7 points ago

Is no one else creeped out by the backwards facing hands?
