The contest starts today!  

It will go from today until April 13th.

The submission folder will close after a month and a week later we will announce the winners. 

What it is?

Okay, so I promised to explain this contest further in past journals and polls. So here is the best explanation I have for you, if you have any questions feel free to comment.

The contest is titled "Something New". By that we mean that you just have to try something new for yourself.

It's a very open ended contest and is meant to help you grow as an artist. 

You never know if you like something until you try it.

Something new can really be anything, I find the best way to explain it is through examples.

Examples

If you draw traditional you could try a new medium, such as, if you use pencil you could try chalk or acrylic paint.

If you draw anime/manga style, you could try to do a more realistic style.

If you draw animals you could draw people, or vice versa.

If you do digital art and always find your colors from another picture, this time try to do it on your own. 

Also, if you do digital art you could try a new color palette.

Essentially just change something up and challenge yourself.

Rules 

On your submission you need to write what you did differently.

If we cannot find what is different about your submission we won't be able to count it.

We will be monitoring the submissions and checking them against what you usually upload to determine if you did do something different. 

PLEASE do not just do the same thing you always do and try to pass it off as something different.

Submit your art to the folder titled, "Contest".

If you don't submit it to the correct folder it will not be judged and we would hate for you to go through the trouble of making a piece of art that didn't get judged!

Winners

We will narrow the submissions down to the top 10 within the administrators.

You as group members will then vote on the 10 submissions.

The top voted will receive a premium membership, the length of which is up to the discretion of the admin member.

The next four will receive points.

1st point winner: 30 points

2nd point winner: 20 points

3rd point winner: 15 points

4th point winner: 10 points

All 10 will receive a feature in the journal that will announce all the winners.

Good luck to everyone who choses to participate!

 

We cannot wait to see what you guys come up with!
