(((-You can use bases, but you must be VERY clear that it is a base. If you use a base without credit, you will be disqualified. Using a base will also not help with your score a lot. However, if you do your entry and then use a base to like. Add it into a screenshot for a show its backstory is based on or something, that would be rad, I love that stuff!! -You can only win one character!! If you do enter for multiple, it would be useful if you could rate your preferances for which you would like to win most!! -if I see you commenting anything along the lines of 'oooh i will never win your entry is SOO good' it will make me angry and you most likely won't win. By all means, compliment the other artists!! That's encoraged!! But complimenting another person by putting yourself down just makes everyone uncomfortable. -obviously, no bullying other entries or saying other people won't win. No slight jabs like 'oh this is great but you forgot this...' nothing like that. This is for fun. I do not want war. -KEEP THE DESIGNS RECOGNISABLE. You can change species, humanise, take away markings, generally simplify, i don't care. But it MUST be recognisable as the design it is based on. For example, if you made Harvey into a giraffe and the only similarity was the colour palette, you would not win. But if you made Harvey into a giraffe but kept their horns, heaves, fluff, colours, etc- that would be fine, as it is still recognisable. General tips: -Make your entries mobile friendly!! I typically use my phoke to biew entries, and it is very annoying when the only way i can view the next drawing is pressing space. -you can make as many entries as you like, but PLEASE make sure if you make seperate projects you link each of the entries in them so I know theyre all connected. - I am WAY more into effort than quality. I want to see that you love this design, and will use it if you win it. Don't get me wrong, this is an art competition, and so art will have a big part in it. But I am very much looking for effort and devotion. - backstories are VERY important to me. It shows you have some use for the character, and won't just leave it sat in a box somewhere. (You don't have to do like. Full fleshed out backstories. Just a summary, or even just a bio for the character, is fine. A short summary story is prefered to a super long one, because I am not great at reading LOL) - Whatever comments I do or don't leave on people's entries has NOTHING to do with wether or not you'll win. Please do not be disheartened if i left an 'OMG THIS IS SO RAD' comment on one person's entry and I left an 'oo cute' comment on yours. It literally just has to do with my energy levels through the day. Sometimes I can be VERY. bad at messaging.
