(sorry for the bad grammar, if you see any mistakes, please feel free to tell me ^^ )

Al right^^ this will official be my very first contest that I’ll organise^^ Normaly I don’t do stuf like that, but because I finaly reached the 10 k pageview ( _{and I’m very thankful to al my friends that made it possible} ) I’ve decided to do one ^^

many people will remember my poll I started up a few days ago, and quite some people were interested in participating^^ so here it is!!


who can enter?

EVRYONE IS ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE ^^ but if you do decide to participate, please send me a note ^^ then I’m aible to make a list with al the contestants and their progress and/or finished results. Make sure that all your friends know about this, so that many people can find their way to this contest ^^ how more people will join, how more fun it'll be ^^


What’s the subject?

Well, it is arsillyd’s 10k birthday, so today is special ^^ right now the first sun of spring is shining here (yep, it’s almost spring), so I thaught about drawing arsillyd with something spring/sun themed and, a surplus is definately a drawing that also contains one (or more) of your own caracters!! It’s not a must, but it’ll have a mutch higher rate of winning the contest ^^ How you ‘ll do it, is entirely your decision^^ it can be digital or traditional ^^

So, in some short words

- draw arsillyd, the theme is sun/spring

- the drawing have tob e done by digital media, or traditional media

- (Not a must, but will have a good effect on your contest results) adding your own caracters to the scène

- you can enter two pieces if you like, but only one can be chosen for a prize.


How does arsillyd look like?

Lately arsillyd had some redesign issues, but I’ve got finaly the new design ready on this link:[link] you’ll find on that link arsillyd in easern dragon form, but you can draw him/her (arsillyd has no gender) in western dragon style as well, because it’s form isn’t standart. He/she adapts constantly^^ on this link you'll find a detailed traditional drawing about how the head looks like: [link] do what you think that is the most comfortable for you to draw.


When is the deadline?

In the poll I’ve made a few days ago, 45 % of those who replied said that their participation depends when I hold it. This is a rather difficult question, because when it suits for person A, it maybe isn’t a perfect deadline for person B. so this is what I thaught. Because I’m a pretty lazy artist myself who also needs many weeks in order to finish something properly, I decided to have the deadline on the 1st of august… yes, that sounds pretty long, but that will give you plenty of time in order to finish it ^^ If I’m not mistaken, many people have also around that date summer holidays, so that gives extra time.


What are the prizes?

Yes, prizes^^ this is maybe the most interesting thing for you, but the most difficult job for me… though I realy want to give evryone something in return for al the effords that definately will be made to gain the contest, my budget allows that only 3 people will gain prizes.

1. a 3 month sub + digital drawing of your caracter+ traditional drawing of your caracter
2. a 1 month sub + digital drawing of your caracter OR traditional drawing of your caracter
3. a digital drawing of your caracter OR traditional drawing of your caracter

evryone else will DEFINATELY have a feature in my journal with a tumb of their picture, together with a link (icon) to your page ^^ after 3 months of being featured, the whole collection deserve a pernament place in the shoutbox (I never use that box for other purposes, so it will stand there forever )

and MAYBE sketch giftarts for their caracter… it’ll depend when I’ll work this summer holiday.

the contestants

So, that’s all I guess. If you have questions, or you see a giant grammar fault, please feel free to ask/say
