UPDATE 2;; The contest is now closed! I will be announcing the winners within the next couple days, I realize I probably wont be able to pick a winner just yet due to all these amazing entries! ;w; thank you all so much again for your amazing participation and designs!

UPDATE;; Hey guys!

So my contest is set to end tomorrow, however I've gotten quite a few entries over the last 24 hours and had a lot of people asking about the specific time of the deadline so to give everyone a little more time I'm extending the contest until the 1st of June. I will also be announcing the winners on this day, so please make sure to have all your entries in by MIDNIGHT(12am) MT on the 1st.

Thank you all SO much for your entries this far, they are all seriously so stunning. ;; i didn't expect nearly this amount of a turn out so I'm honestly really shocked. I am really excited to get the results out soon.♡

🌻 DEADLINE: June 1st 2018 (12am MT)


I haven’t done a design contest in ages and thought it might be nice to give it another go! So i’ve made a couple prompts / ideas to pick from. 
I want to give lots of freedom in this contest so that there’s lots of options and ideas for creativity! 

HOW TO ENTER


- Create a character design for me! 


- Comment below with a link to your entry.


- You must follow the criteria in some way.
(I.e.. do not design a crazy rainbow character, please reference the prompts,
likes and dislikes when creating your design! The more I like the character,
the more likely you are to win!)


- You will be judged on how much I like the design, not on artistic talent.
The more detail and aesthetic you build for the character the more
likely i am to want them!


- Your entry must be at least one view of the design!
You may do more though, outfits, and items and things
like that are encouraged!


- Your entry must be digital artwork OR scanned traditional artwork with clear markings.


----------------------


RULES


- You may not use a base, it must be your own original artwork!
I will not base in artistic skill level, but on the actual design itself.


- You may enter up to 5 times. (up to 5 entries per person) 


- There is no specific amount of detail you must add on the 'reference'.
However the more effort you put in the better chance you have at winning!  


- If you do not place in the contest you are absolutely welcome to sell/trade/keep the design!
It is yours to do with. (Please just remove my mood board if you include one of them on the image!) 


- All characters that place will be owned by me!
(Again, if your design does not win you may sell it, or do with it as you wish!)


-Make sure to read over all this whole journal!



WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR
 Prompts:
✧ Fursona I’m looking for a new fursona design that can be drawn in a forest-y theme, or in a pink theme. With a bit of both? Natural-ish colours. Pinks should be somewhere probably.. i’m giving a lot of freedom for this prompt but I am very picky when it comes to fursona designs. I’m looking for.. feminine, hearts, etc.. (refer to likes/dislikes, and species list.. no specific ideas.)  
Current fursonas for reference: toyhou.se/strawberrymilk/chara…
toyhou.se/strawberrymilk/chara…

✧ Mood boardsHere is a stash folder full of mood boards for personal characters I’ve been wanting to create. (If your design does not win you may not reuse these boards)
Stash:  sta.sh/21tfr94b21fg (adding more)

     


✧ Your own idea!You can come up with your own idea for a character you think i would like! Please refer to themes I like and pre-existing characters I have to get an idea of what type of designs I like. (Feel free to create your own mood board, etc)

You may follow the prompts, or create your own idea based on other designs and themes I like.



WHAT I LIKE
✧ Pinterest board:  pin.it/rdtu5so4zvsn2s
These are a collection of images I like for aesthetics / outfits / themes. These are not meant to all be for singular character.
✧ Toyhouse (my characters):  toyhou.se/strawberrymilk/chara…

✧ LIKES: Nautral colours, soft colours, hearts, moons/stars, fluffy characters, (small)wings/wing markings, pastels, pink, forest-y designs, punk aesthetic, girly aesthetic, simple ‘tattoos’ (only if tasteful..), gold circle glasses, rose gold, septum piercings, plugs, paws, big hips / curvy, cream colours, tasteful markings that aren’t too busy, flowers, etc.  
✧ DISLIKES: bright / extreme colours, human/dragon/bird/etc, mythical/fake species (jackalopes, or species + wings are fine), complex designs, green, ‘tribal’ tattoos/designs, primarily unnatural colours designs, etc.

✧ Species: canines (ex: chow chow, akita, pom, wolf, fox, shepards, coyote, malamutes, etc), felines (ex: tigers, lions, leopards, etc), rabbits, mustelids, etc.. honestly any mammals are good!

----------------------


PRIZES

I will be the only judge in this contest, and any designs that place will be owned by me! 

USD prizes will be sent VIA paypal however, If the winner does not wish to receive the 

money they may get the same value in artwork, or credit towards my premade designs.

(Front view, headshot, and partial back view)

   I decided to upload Philomene here because I wasn't really happy with the quality of the Instagram post, you couldn't see her markings. The coffee drink is a dirty chai with a double shot of espresso.
