Hi! Hello dA! Today (August 23rd, GMT +8) is my birthday! :happybounce:

I really want to thank you all for the wonderful support and attention I've been receiving. So, I have decided to host my first contest and raffle! :D (Big Grin) You can join both!

Since I realized that I don't have any OCs (Original Characters) and I can't find the inspiration to create one, the contest will be a "Design me an OC" contest! La la la la (Not interested? Scroll down for the raffle! Wink/Razz)

RULES:


1. If you are interested in entering, please favorite +fav this journal so that I can get an idea of how many people are interested. You do not have to be a +Watcher to participate; however, if you like my art, I would highly appreciate it if you +Watch me. :D (Big Grin)

2. No mature content allowed.

3. No stealing other people's bases, art, etc. without permission. If I catch you stealing art, you will be banned without notice. I would highly prefer you not to use pre-existing bases, though I guess it's fine if you use a base with permission.

4. You can create as many contest entries as you want, but only one entry can win. All entries must be made after August 23rd, 2014. You cannot submit previous artworks.

5. Traditional and digital media are both allowed. If your entry wins, then I am free to use the concept of your designed OC however I want (the artwork is still yours though). Otherwise, you are free to use your artwork however you want.

6. DEADLINE: October 7th. That gives you over a month. I can extend the deadline if I feel that there are not enough entries.

Things I prefer / like:


Bullet; Green Human and hero OCs
Bullet; Green Dragons and other fantasy creatures
Bullet; Green Video games
Bullet; Green Cool sci-fi stuff
Bullet; Green Medieval (e.g. How to Train your Dragon)

Things I do not prefer / dislike:


Bullet; Red Anthro / human-animal hybrid OCs
Bullet; Red Pony OCs

I will judge all entries based on the following factors:
Bullet; Green 50%: effort and artistic quality
Bullet; Green 50%: concept and creativity

All entries: jacksonchen.deviantart.com/fav…
Current number of participants: 11
Current number of entries: 15

A fourth deviant will get 5 :points: kindly donated by :iconeiffa2222:!

Bullet; Green You can help me spread the word about this contest by writing a NEW journal about this contest (provide a link to my journal). Leave a comment on this journal with a link to your journal.

:bulletred: Note: +Watching me will not increase your chances. Unless you enjoy my art, please do not watch me because I do not want to deal with people who become inactive or downright unwatch me after the raffle is over.

Thank you all in advance, and good luck! :D (Big Grin)
