Community:Art Guidelines

The Art Guidelines is a set of guidelines for drawing polcompballs and icons, and are the official means of drawing them.

Steps

 * 1) Draw a ball; don't use the circle tool, the ball looks bland when used. Draw a triangle or cube if it is represented as such.
 * 2) Draw on what's represented on the ball. If it predominantly uses black, don't use pure black; instead, use a slightly lighter shade.
 * 3) Draw two eyes on the balls. The eyes should be purely white. Use a singular eye, differently colored eyes, etc. it it is represented as such.

You're done!

Do NOT
Do NOT use them on polcompballs unless it is represented on the ball.


 * 1) Do NOT use pupils on balls. If you use both circle tool and pupils, you made it more like [[File:Quark.png]] Quarkism. The only exception is [[File:Ingsocf.png]] Ingsoc.
 * 2) Do NOT use hair on balls, especially facial hair. The only exception is [[File:Apolit.png]] Apoliticism.
 * 3) When drawing the ball, Do NOT use anti aliasing on the ball, as it leaves anti-aliasing artifacts on the ball.
 * 4) When drawing the eyes, do NOT use eyelashes or eyebrows on the ball.
 * 5) Do NOT add limbs to the ball. The only exception is [[File:Senate.png]] Senatorialism.
 * 6) When drawing what's represented on the ball, do NOT use black lines in-between colors.
 * 7) Do NOT use mouths on the ball. In [[File:Polandball.png]] Polandball, there's no balls with a mouth.

Optional
Optional features that can be used on polcompballs, but are not required.


 * 1) Draw shading features on the ball. You can also use shadows.
 * 2) You can add accessories to the balls, like headwear and facial gear.
