Dylanrockin Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) Symphonic Horizon: Draw my OC/Characters Contest! (WIP Banner, sue me) On February 20th, 2017 I will be hosting a "Draw my OC/Characters" contest on my deviantART Group Page, and the Reborn Forums, with PRIZES I mainly wanted to do this out of fun, really, and so that way I can get my readers and fans involved with the game. Also, so that way I can give out some interesting prizes, and whatnot to those who participated. Details on prizes and whatnot are below. During February I will receive a huge amount of money from my family and taxes. As for the contest itself - the contest is simple, basically you just draw the characters that I list, and it's judged based on: originality, completedness anatomy/skills, canonocity (i.e. is it close to their canon designs and descriptions?) and composition. I don't accept designs that do not even closely resemble the characters, or if they are not in clothing that was made for my game. So, you can draw them in their costumes or whatever, but it has to be those ones, specifically. Also, you can draw ANY of the characters from my game, and when the time comes I will show all the available characters for you to choose from. There will be cash prizes or if the person doesn't want cash and they want something obtainable within that range I can do that to. The prizes will be based on the grading criteria above and what the entrants can win are these prizes below: (Colors are Christmas themed, because I'm too lazy to change them back.) $150 for First Place and a cameo placement anywhere in the game, whether it be battle or whatever. (Or something of equal value, like dA points, etc) $100 dollars for Second Place and a cameo placement (Or something of equal value, like dA points, etc) $50 dollars for Third Place and a cameo placement. (Or something of equal value, like dA points, etc) Anything below will have a cameo placement somewhere in the game of their choosing. Rules Has to be their designs and nothing that you would attribute to them. So, basically, they have to look like how they normally do. Putting them in costumes is allowed, but it has to be the themed costumes that are currently in the game, i.e. Tales Costumes, Beach Costumes, Halloween, Christmas, and various other costumes that they wear in the game. Only 1 submission is allowed. You can have as many characters in the artwork as you want, so it doesn't have to be just 1 character in the scene. You are free to use any style you wish. You can even do pixel art if you really want to. That'd be... pretty unique and awesome to see actually. You can give them things in their hands like Poke Balls, or whatever. Even swords for shits and giggles XD No gore, blood or anything really profound and disgusting. Don't have another person create the art for you. I want YOU to make the art and not someone make it for you. Have fun with it~! How to enter: Just leave a comment down below and I'll add you to the roster of people entered. After commenting, and when the start date arrives, you can feel free to edit your original post, or comment again with your artwork included. If you don't wish to have other people view your work, you are free to message me, and I, myself, and the other judges will look at it from there. Start date and Deadline: Start date is February 20th, 2017 Deadline is March 10th, so you have plenty of time to do your work. Final Judging time is March 11th A link to the characters available for this particular contest can be found on my deviantART's Group's page, where they are stored as reference. You can view any and all artwork of my characters, to use as reference, in-case you all don't want to sift through my forum post, about my game to find the artwork. http://symphonic-horizon.deviantart.com/ http://symphonic-horizon.deviantart.com/gallery/53418367/Featured Final notes: If this becomes really well regarded the first time around, I may end up doing this again, with bigger prizes available for people who participate in the contest.

Also, as a general side note for everyone, I added an additional clause to the rules, where the art has to be made by you, specifically. Basically what I mean is that you can't have someone else draw the artwork for you, because that is what we like to refer to as "cheating" and "dishonesty". In short, basically do the work yourself and you should be good ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dypatome Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 So in two days, you'll give us a prompt to work off of, correct? I'm either thinking that it's going to be that or we'll have free choice to do whatever we wish, but I don't see any information above as to what we'll be drawing.

At the bottom of the original post there is a link to my deviantART groups page where basically you can draw whoever you want from my game, but it has to meet the criteria above. Submissions begin on the 20th, and the deadline for submissions and when someone wants to start is March 10th. Everyone is free to draw as it is, now, but submissions will not count, until the 20th and on. There are tons of characters to choose from, but they have to be accurate.

Dylanrockin Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 So, today is the day that people are now able to submit their contest entries, which means the contest has now officially started! Make sure to read the details above clearly, and go to the link provided to my deviantART Groups page for reference material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You certainly did do everything right, and for other people who read this post I will be submitting your artwork to the Groups Page. If you don't want me to add your work to my page, that's fine too, but just for the sake of archiving it for later reference and ease of judging I will be doing that. However, I won't be saying anything in regards to anyone's artwork, until the judging date has begun. So, if you show me your deviantART link and don't see me reply to it, it's because I will be saving my responses for when the time has come for it.

Dylanrockin Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) So, I've got a little update for ya'll, and it has more to do with the 2nd Draw My OC Contest that I will hold at a later date. But, here is what I have in question - the Custom Wall Scrolls that were made by one of my friends for me. These are 2 Large Sized Wall Scrolls, and 1 Super Sized Wall Scroll that was made for my game. These were way larger than I was actually expecting when I was reading the dimensions for them, but no, they are really large XD Unfortunately I cannot hang them at the moment, since my walls are hardwood and concrete, which means I would have to use adhesive wall scroll hooks, in order to properly mount them. For the next art contest, I will be offering the Krista Harper and Hiro Monochroma Large wall scrolls as prizes for 1st Place, so that is something to look forward to ;D I'm sure someone's gonna say "Why do they look so weird?" That's because I have these laid out on a bed and they look wrinkled because of it, also my shitty camera on my Iphone 5S doesn't do it justice. But, you get the idea. If you wanna see them better looking, there is a video of me unboxing them. Also, lol you can see my messy bed XD I do have a video of me unboxing these, however that video is on my actual thread page, for those of you interested.
