Design Contest! CLOSEDHello, everyone! >w< I have another contest for you! ^o^/
The contest is design-based, and the theme is Nature's Twins

What is 'Nature's Twins'?
It is a small series that I draw. It consists of a human and animal counterpart bearing similarity in designs/physical traits.
Here are some examples:

(These are merely examples, as mentioned below, you will be expected to design your own human/animal counterparts ^^ )
The goal is to design either a human or animal (or both, if you would like) as part of the Nature's Twins series.
For example, you can draw a person with a unique design and describe what kind of animal you had in mind in the artist's description, or vice versa. If you would like to do both the person and animal, that is more than welcomed!
Please take note that these designs are expected to be fullbody!
The deadline will be set at January 31st!

Working With Minimal Detail; Closed!The contest is now closed; thanks to everyone for participating! After doing final checks on the prize list, seeing if everyone is still able to contribute what they were listed for, etc, the entries will be judged and the results posted!
In celebration of the rapidly approaching 2000 Member Milestone, #PayPal-Commissioners will be holding a contest, as per the results of this poll.

Theme: "Working From Minimal Detail"
More often than we realize, artists are faced with "that one client" who either can not or will not provide you enough detail for you to confidently work. Most of the time, artists can really take these details and run with them, creating beautiful and meaningful works of art from a few simple, often generic, traits.
We realize that not every artist's area of expertise is in humanoids. We will provide three sets of details. One for animal forms, one for anthropomor

Mara's Contest - info & prizes updatedWell....not really

I just called it that so the song would get stuck in your head for the rest of the day :icontrollfaceplz:
What kind of contest is this, then? It's the kind where I shamelessly bribe you to draw my OCs in exchange for swag!

But before we get to the delicious bait of my artistic trap, let's have a look at the rules and characters...

You can enter as many times as you want in as many categories as you want. just don't hurt yourself

Follow basic Deviantart etiquette: no art theft or traces, please!

(Trozo de la escena: Confusión.)

–La verdad, Marné. –Le repetí hastía por su proximidad.
–La verdad, Brighid. Esa noche estuve con el hombre que os atacó. Lo conozco muy bien.
Ladeé el rostro para mirarle boquiabierta, pero no me dio tiempo a reprocharle nada cuando sus labios entraron gélidos en contacto con los míos y me besó con frenética furia. Mis manos se ajustaron a la forma perfecta de su pecho y lo empujé. Pero no conseguí apartarlo.
Su rápida lengua jugaba con la mía, obligándome a una entrega sin miramientos. Ladeó el rostro, yo lo hice hacia el otro lado jadeando necesitada de aire. Me cedió unos segundos para respirar, mientras atacaba mi mentón, mi nariz y el lóbulo de la oreja. Con suaves besitos y deliciosos lametones que me quitaron el sentido. Roland conseguía hacerme sentir amada y deseada.

CONTEST: THE JOURNEY - WINNERS!!!

Journal Entry: Sat Jan 19, 2013, 5:22 AM

Twitter Tumblr Commissions My website Gallery

"The journey" contest is over. The goal of this contest was to give you a reason to draw something different. To push you a little out of what you usually do, let you improve and be creative. I sincerely hope all of you had fun drawing your entries, and I thank you for participating and making this contest unique and interesting. I can assure you that you made the judges sweat and struggle. I'll be sure to go back trough all the entries to leave a proper feedback, and thank you for your hard work. Now, I have the pleassure to announce the winners of this contest:

· · · · · · Congratulations, *Walkyre!!! · · · · · ·
_{You won 2500 deviantart points, 3 months deviantart subscription, *AAAGH's commission, ~Chocopies's bust commission, *Blackash's commission, *Tori-Fan's commission, =omocha-san's commission, =Hiimeji's commission, and 1 month featured in my journal.}

· · · · · · · · · · · · Judges opinion: · · · · · · · · · · · · _{*Blackash: I keep coming back to this piece, each time it pulls me right in. A journey in this land looks intense, a feeling that Walkyre portrayed marvelously. It tells a story, one that your mind can go wild with. It can even change depending which way you scroll from. I want to know more and see more of this world! The concept is wonderful, as well as the execution.

~Chocopies: Congratulations and fantastic work! Great job with the composition and all the clever little tricks to help the viewer follow the journey, from the foot steps to the vertical lines drawing us, like gravity, to the bottom of the illustration. I wanted to see more and I thought you nailed the theme in many aspects.

~minizahito: I like so much the concept and the technique he used here. I get the feeling of immensity and loneliness. I love the lighting effects and the depth that he managed to achieve with this piece. Great job.

=ReevScythe: It's incredible how a simple word, journey, can sprout such different ideas in different artists. This one in particular is amazing: a visual journey through a fantastic landscape, with an unusual vertical format as a guide in this unknown land. Brilliant.

*Opheliona: It seems the character or the hero has traveled a long way to try and find anything but the vast emptiness he knows as the world around him. I like how this one makes me want to know more of the idea behind it. This, to me, is the best depiction of a journey.}

· · · · · · Congratulations, *Fellier!!! · · · · · ·
_{You won 1500 deviantart points, 3 months deviantart subscription, *AAAGH's bust commission, *Blackash's bust commission, ~LunaticStar's commission, ~epiphytes's commission, =omocha-san's commission, ~vinhnyu's sketch, *Tori-Fan's sketch, and 1 month featured in my journal.}

· · · · · · · · · · · · Judges opinion: · · · · · · · · · · · · _{*Blackash: I love the story told by Fellier in this comic, I didn't want to get to the end of it! It's sweet and funny and even sad, all in the span of one page. The emotions you see on the characters faces immerse you in the story. I was excited to see this journey begin and only wish there was more to see.

~Chocopies: Adorable comic. It goes to show that starting a voyage can be a journey in itself. There are those journeys we go through emotionally, for the sake of our jobs and those we take for our own good. Living life itself is a good example. We can choose to roll over and let it walk all over us, go with the flow or make our own path, and I could see this in your comic.
Great work!

~minizahito: l really like to see a comic as entry. The story developes greatly while it also has a good amount of laughs and action. The distribution of the scenes are so good. I would like to see more adventures of the tiny taru and his mithra friend.

=ReevScythe: A comic entry, and a really well made one too. Wonderfully drawn expressions manage to bring forth an abundance of emotions, and a nice short, open story that makes you want to know so badly what kind of adventures lie ahead of this odd duo.

*Opheliona: She was the only person who decided to use a comic to tell her story of The Journey, which was a great and creative way to go about it. I liked the use of shading and backgrounds and the facial expressions were great. I actually wanted to read more!}

· · · · · · Congratulations, ~artico!!! · · · · · ·
_{You won 600 deviantart points, 1 month deviantart subscription, *AAAGH's bust commission, *Blackash's chibi commission, =shanyii's chibi commission, ~LunaticStar's sketch commission and 1 month featured in my journal.}

· · · · · · · · · · · · Judges opinion: · · · · · · · · · · · · _{*Blackash: This piece is one I think every artist can related to. You can't see what's ahead, but you can always look where you came from. Artico did this perfectly, showing that next step she's about to take and all the things she's been through before. It really brought a smile to my face.

~Chocopies: Your work brought a smile to my face! Loved how you took your journey as an artist and illustrated it for us. It was nostalgic and fun, and I couldn't wait to see what was going to show up on the canvas of your artistic journey next. Congratulations!

~minizahito:An original concept for the contest theme. Certainly, the artist way is long, sometimes hard and never ends, but everyday you will improve, as we can clearly see in this drawing. Congratulations.

=ReevScythe: A lovely idea perfectly delivered. I think all of us, at least once, took some time to look back at our old artworks, maybe browsing back through the sketchbook we just filled, or organizing our gallery, or peeking in a package of old drawings from years ago. And only then we really realize that too often we think of the road ahead of us, and too rarely we stop and look back of how much we've travelled already.

*Opheliona: Everyone should be able to relate to this entry. She put in her journey for her as an artist, which to me, was one of the most original ideas. I like the detail in pencil where part of the fence is broken, maybe to show her starting out as far as skill, and as the image progresses, we see a lovely background, a sky, more colors and details.}

EXTRA PRIZES

Honorable mention of three of the many pieces that were greatly appreciated by the judges and were selected for an extra prize.
