23th of April: First of all let me thank you all once again. My contest wouldn't have success without your efforts. It was really painful judging, I swear, I woke up thinking of the pros and cons about every single entry (I really have no life! XDDD). But I had to pick two winners, so I did it. 
And the winners are.... drumroll.... :eager:


Bullet; Green  1st prize: with her work  
I chose her entry because she usually posts black and white works or coloring projects, while here she did everything, lineart, coloring and so on. Plus I liked the coloring technique she used, the pose which is really charming and that she picked a less known character among the plethora of babies I have. She made my Matriarch shine like a star! ;)
She wins:
-300 , 1 :llama: ,  1 portrait (until hips) pinup by me.

-1 detailed drawing request by
-1 full body request by  

Bullet; Green 2nd prize: with her work 
The most appreciated and voted work through poll, and I'm agree with this choice for different reasons: a difficult pose for a pair, yuri chosen by an artist who usually prefers yaoi, the perfect harmony between the colors and the skillness in coloring. Really hot and well done. :clap:
She wins:
-200 , 1 :llama: , 1 chibi with food (or a chibi zodiac sign) by me,

-1 normal drawing request by  
-1 bust up request by  

Bullet; Green Runner up prizeNew   with her work 
I can't give her the third prize because there weren't enough participants, but I still want to give her a special mention for her bravery: in her gallery I never saw bigger groups than 2, 3 characters in a single deviation, now all of sudden she draws 6 and naked (I'm not picking it just because of the sexiness, I swear!!!) because when a character is naked it's really hard working on the anatomy because you cannot do mistakes! She really made all my Luminians (and not just Urtica) shine. :nod:
She wins 1 chibi with food (or a chibi zodiac sign) by me.

Congratulations!!! And thank you for all your efforts! :hug: 
To all the others don't give up, you can still get free stuff from me if you get my kiriban, and maybe I'll do more raffles in the future.

And the contest is officially over! :party: We have 10 amazing participants who took a try, thank you very much!!!   
And thank you a lot to the prize donors and to the ones who advertise my contest, you are really great friends! Let me kiss you one by one!!!!    
I will start judging in the next days and these are the features I'll evaluate to pick the two winners: originality, technique (anatomy, poses, or punctuation and grammar for written works), overall difficult of the work, overall improvement of the artist (did he/she/other improve or dare more than usual to create that work?). 
I'll try to announce the winners before the end of April, be patient until now and check the amazing participants and prize donors' galleries in the wait.
And thank you for making my third contest a success!!! You are very precious to me.

17th of April: We reached the 10 participants, that's a miracle! I want to hear one 'Allelujah!' (nah, just joking!) By the way the second prize is officially unlocked,   and you still have some time to submit your entry!!!

---
16th of April: Just one participant more and the second prize will be unlocked, just 1 more day for the contest, I'm so EXCITED!!! OMG! I can't contain my excitement!     
Please, just one more entrant!!! I promise it will be worth of the effort!  

---
11th of April: NEW PRIZES ADDED!!!! Say a big 'Thank you' to a great person and artist! :heart:

The countdown started, unless one of the participants who is going to submit an entry needs more time the contest ends with the end of 17th of April, in 10 days (Central European Time Zone).

---
3rd of April: And we have officially enough participants to unlock the 1st prize, wohooo! :clap:
By the way if you plan to participate do it: since there aren't many participants like the previous years the odds to win are high! ;) If you need time just tell me, the deadline for now is set at 17th of April. :)

26th of March: Illy is alive, even if sat on a cold uncozy floor using an annoying laptop with no memory, ugh!!!! My computer is sent to be fixed, I hope to have it back Tuesday and without getting more broke for it. While I'm away I draw a lot so I'll be able to start coloring and posting my stuff as soon as possible and I'm creating my next cosplay outfits. Planning for something quite hard. :)
By the way, contest updates... we have a new participant!!! Just one left to unlock the first prize!!!
PLEASE ADVERTISE MY CONTEST, if you really can't participate! It would be really helpful, I don't wish to cancel this contest, I never had to do it since I joined dA!
And if you want to participate but think you have not enough time please tell me, and I'll delay the deadline, which at the moment is set at 17th of April. 
---
16th of March Important update: due to problems with my computer which is getting unmanageable I might have it gone with a technician soon and I don't know for how long. Maybe a few days, maybe weeks. To avoid problems in case I won't be able to be online for a while I warn all the participants and the possible participants... THE DEADLINE HAD BEEN DELAYED to the 17th of April, just to stay safe.
I hope I won't have to delay it again, wish me good luck and be creative while I'm away!

5th of March: Three participants, and someone dared to write, wohoo! :party:

Hi, dA folks! Finally it's time... after an eternity I'm ready to host another contest about my OCs! :party: :clap:
I asked in a poll about possible contest themes and a simple 'Draw my OCs' was the most chosen. Not very original, but who cares? XD
But I noticed that among the ones who voted not everyone drew, so I decide that for this contest I'LL ACCEPT ANY KIND OF MEDIA: drawings (traditional or digital), photomanipulations, cosplay, artisan crafts (food included), written works (stories, poems, haiku...), so everyone will have an opportunity. You want to cosplay like one of my OCs, decorate an egg with a drawing of my OCs, make an origami or a nail art inspired by them? You can do it, until you take a decent quality photo of it and my OC is recognizable. Surprise me! :la:

Some rules (read well!!!):
:bulletgreen: The contest is about my OCs. My friends' OCs ( like or ) don't count, so read well the description of the deviations and in case of doubt ask me if I own a certain OC.
:bulletgreen: ALL MEDIA ARE ALLOWED! In case of doubt just ask me, I don't bite.
:bulletgreen: You can submit more than one entry, but just one can be chosen for a prize.
:bulletgreen: You can't use my own works as base for photomanipulations or other. I don't want to see my own works revisited (or I would do it myself). Be creative. 
:bulletgreen: If you use works done by others as base you need their plain authorization and you have to credit them.
:bulletgreen: You can add your own OCs to the work, or my friends OCs, just keep in mind that the contest is about my OCs, so they should be the main characters.
:bulletgreen: The contests STARTS the 17th of January, it ENDS the 17th of April New , 3 months. If someone needs more time you can ask me, but I won't procrastinate more than twice.
:bulletgreen: I need at least 5 participants to make the contest fair, so if you can't participate share this contest, it would be a pity not giving prizes just because not enough participated!

Prizes (still collecting them, prize donors can still participate):
:bulletgreen: (with at least 5 participants) 1st prize (UNLOCKED):
-300 , 1 :llama: ,  1 portrait (until hips) pinup by me.
-1 detailed drawing request by
-1 full body request by  New 


:bulletgreen: (with more than 10 participants) 2nd prize (UNLOCKED):  
-200 , 1 :llama: , 1 chibi with food (or a chibi zodiac sign) by me,
-1 normal drawing request by  
-1 bust up request by  New 


:bulletgreen: (with more than 15 participants) 3rd prize:
-100 , 1 :llama: ,  1 chibi with food (or a chibi zodiac sign) by me, 
-1 sketch request by  
- 1 chibi request by  New 

I need enough participants to make the competition fair, but I hope I'll manage to have at least 10!
And now, my OCs: I have some human looking ones, some who can look like kemonomimi, some dragon like people, more aliens, Transformers, yautjas (from Predators) and Poleepkwas (District 9 'prawns').
