THEME
'Slice of Life in Winter'.
Draw moments in the =ElephantWendigo's Original Characters lives that take place in wintry settings (fireplaces, cold, icy, snow, Christmas, mountains, warm clothes, leafless trees, etc.). These moments don't have to be 'routine actions' of a character's life but rather moments where =ElephantWendigo's characters are protagonists.
THEME RULES and SUBMISSION RULES
- Only =ElephantWendigo's original characters are allowed (NO other OCs or fanarts).
- You can find the list of the characters here -> [link]
- Characters must be recognizable. It's not allowed to draw them into animal or furry form or change their gender though.
- You can mix the character in a single picture in every way you want, and you can draw how many characters you want in the same picture (Sample: characters from 'CyberSteel' story can be drawn with OCs from 'The last Heir of Versewil III'). That means Crossovers are allowed.
- You can add animals into your picture and also not recognizable characters as part of the background (crowd etc)
- Blood, nudity and violence are accepted as long as they don't infringe the dA rules or be posted with the Strict Mature content filter ON.
- You could make the character facing a situation unusual for him/her.
- You can join with how many entries you want, but only one of them can win.
- All the formats and sizes are accepted.
- It's better to participate with completed works rather than sketches, and to scan traditional art and cropping it instead of taking a picture. No squared or ruled paper!
- Your entry can't infringe dA rules
- You MUST credit all the resources or references you used and provide a link to them
- You CAN'T use Copyrighted resources and materials, or part of someone else's gallery for making your picture, except for textures and resources.
