Masked Arcana Contest - One Month Left!

Journal Entry: Sun Jul 25, 2010, 5:48 AM
  • Mood: Excited
  • Playing: Echo Bazaar



Edit: Hey everyone! I've gotten some beautiful entries for the Masked Arcana contest so far, and just wanted to give you a heads-up if you're planning to enter- the deadline is August 24. In the meantime, I've got another person's commissions to pimp, so look below for info. :D


That's right. June 24th marks the end of my SEVENTH YEAR ON DEVIANTART. My GOD, I feel old. But really, that just means I've been posting here for ages. :rofl: Thank you all so much for making my most recent year the BEST YEAR EVER; I finally started doing commissions, making friends, actually having fun with the community, and my first-ever DD. Best. Year. Ever. Thank you so, so much. :iconsweethugplz:

So, to kick off the start of my EIGHTH year, and at the suggestion of :icondwenda:, I'm holding my FIRST CONTEST EVER. Keep reading for details, info and dates.



Masked Arcana Contest!

:bulletgreen: What is the contest about?
COSTUMES. Even though the banner just has the little half-masks, this theme can encompass FAR more than that. Full-body costumes, masks, scary, sexy, beautiful, funny, whatever you come up with. If it's my characters in any kind of costume, it's fair game for this contest.

:bulletgreen: Submission dates: June 24-August 24
Submissions can start NOW! And it'll remain open until August 24th. I realize this is kind of a short span of time, but this is only a little contest. It's kind of practice for a bigger one I'm planning. :D

:bulletgreen: How to Submit
Mention the contest in your artist's comment, then send me a note or comment with your contest entry's link. I'd appreciate it if you'd also add it to the "Masked Arcana Contest" folder at #Astral-Arcana, since you don't need to be a member to add to that folder. (But if you forget, no big deal, I can add it myself. ;))

Rules and Guidelines
-Please read to make sure your entry is acceptable BEFORE you submit!-

:bulletred: Any of the characters from the Astral Arcana Illustrations, Arthulin's Astral Arcana Art, and Urban Arcana Illustrations galleries are eligible for use in a contest entry. Some of them have character information sheets here [link] and here [link] , but not all of them, so if you want to do a character that shows up in illustrations but not on a character sheet, GO FOR IT.

:bulletred: Only NEW visual art, posted to dA between the contest start and end, is allowed for this contest.

:bulletred: More than one entry per person is allowed.

:bulletred: If you submit an entry and then delete the picture, it's permanently removed from the running, even if you re-post it. This will save me a few headaches.

:bulletred: Spiciness is acceptable, but please keep it inside dA rules.

:bulletred: Your judge is meeeeee! :dance: Obviously neither ~Arthulin nor I can enter.

:bulletgreen: SO WHAT'S THE PRIZES, MISS TEM?
That's a VERY good question!

The Prizes
As I mentioned before in passing, this is a VERY small contest with a pretty short deadline. I imagine there'll be limited interest since it's not, like... a huge group-sponsored thing. But still, some really wonderful dA friends have chosen to donate prizes. A TREMENDOUS thank you to you guys for padding out my prize list! :dance:

:star:Third Place:star:
1 chibi by =temiel
1 sketch by =Skioppy

:bulletgreen: Can we pimp the contest somehow?
WHY NOT?! :D I made a banner! If you feel so inclined, you can post it in your journal or custom box or wherever you like to put contest info. Or not. Your choice! :D

And a final word...
HAVE FUN! I can't WAIT to see your entries. Or whether... you know... I'll get more than one or two. ;) Thanks all, for a GREAT last year on dA. You guys make me happy all the time. :meow:

Any questions? Comment or note. If there's anything I haven't mentioned that I can make more clear, please let me know.

I feel like drawing (even more) fanservice of one of my characters, but I'm undecided. Any requests?
