I'm a quasi-talented artist who has a tendency to badly manage her spare time, so I don't get as much done as I'd like.

I take commissions but as of yet have not been commissioned xD

Sailormoon Winter MINI CONTEST

Sun Nov 29, 2009, 3:19 PM
I've decided that for the hell of it, I will have a Holiday themed Sailormoon contest.

Categories
There will be two categories. The Holiday Couples category and the Holiday Songs category.

Holiday Couples

For this one, your drawing must include at least one couple of your choosing (it does not have to be canon - it can be Usagi x Mamoru, Setsuna x Professor Tomoe, whatever you want) celebrating a winter holiday together. It can be whatever winter holiday you prefer - Christmas is the most popular because it is celebrated both religiously and secularly in many places. I encourage any other applicable holidays to also be depicted, though.

You can include more than the two people you selected, but the couple has to obviously be interacting and the other people should not be the focus of the image, unless it is another couple. However please keep it down to two "couples" per entry.

Holiday Songs

This one is a little more fun and free-reign. Depict a line from any of your favorite holiday songs in a drawing (if not in English, please provide a translation of the passage for the judges). This can include ANY Sailormoon character.

Prizes

First Place
Each category will only have one winner, the First Place winner. They will receive a 3-month subscription donated by me. One for each category.

Best of Show
The image that the judges agree is the best overall as far as skill and composition will receive a free commission from myself.

Other prizes may be added as money, time, and donations allow.

Rules

:bulletred: Red bullets indicate overall rules
:bulletpurple: Purple bullets are rules specific to the Couples contest
:bulletblue: Blue bullets are specific to the Songs contest

:bulletred: Entries must be received by December 25, 2009 to be eligible for judgement. If you submit it to me via PM or by replying to this journal post by 11:59 PST that evening, your entry will be counted.

:bulletred: Winners will be announced at some point on January 1, 2010.

:bulletred: Needed number of entries: at least FIVE entries per category will be needed to make the contest fair. If one category only has four and the other has six, only the latter contest will remain open. However, in this event, Best of Show will be picked from the ENTIRE group of entries, not just the active category.

:bulletred: You must upload the image you created to your Deviant Art account with a title "SM Holiday Mini Contest Entry". You can list your preferred title in your Artist Comments and change the title after the contest is over.

:bulletred: Although you can submit work to both categories, you will only receive one First Prize. It is possible to win First Prize as well as Best of Show, but we will be trying not to do that.

:bulletred: If you win but do not want the 3-month subscription, you can either donate it to the runner up (or someone of your choosing) or you can opt to request a commission instead.

:bulletred: Although information about your picture should be included in the Artist Comments section, please keep them as minimal as possible as we will be reading them.

:bulletred: Please do not submit any Mature-rated artwork. There aren't many holiday-themed songs that are dirty, but, you know. Let's keep it clean.

:bulletred: DO NOT beg for votes. If I see any begging for votes from you anywhere, your art will be disqualified. You can indicate in your Artist Comment that you are submitting it for this contest and link back to my journal entry, but do not say "Plz vote 4 me!" or any variation. Comments like "I have my fingers crossed" are fine, just don't be like "Please vote for me!"

:bulletblue: The lyrics from the song you selected MUST be included in your Artist Comments (just the passage you use, not the entire song). If in a language other than English please provide a translation.

:bulletpurple: For the Couples conest, no more than TWO couples should be depicted, and any additional characters should be kept to a minimum.

Advertisement??

If you know anyone who would be interested in this contest, please let them know. I don't have a huge following on dA, so word of mouth is a great way to get more people to enter.

Questions or comments?

Please let me know if you have any queetions.

  • Mood: Christmas Spirited
  • Listening to: Moon Revenge
  • Playing: Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King
