  • Entries
    Entries for the competitions

For creating an oekaki contest :

You must provide at least one of the following which needs to be used in all entries:

  • A lineart (or part of a lineart for contestants to complete).
  • A proper background which features scenery and/or items (Colour-fills and gradients are not considered to be proper background).*

If you don't provide something for users to edit, your contest will be moved to the regular Art Contest board. You should post your contest in that board if you don't need users to color in something specific, or want to include art made in other programs.

You must also follow the other Oekaki Rules.

*If you have trouble coming up with a background for your lineart competition, feel free to use either of these pre-made background packs: pack 1 & pack 2 (regular canvas) & pack 3 (larger canvas).

For contests offering a prize/prizes to the winners:

Most people choose to enter a contest based on what kind of prize they have a chance to win. These rules are designed to protect players from being ripped off in contests which change or don't deliver the promised prizes.

  1. Don't offer any prizes that you'll regret losing. If you're not happy to give something away, it shouldn't be a prize.

  2. Your contest must offer a CS pet/item/currency prize. Contests that only offer prizes from other sites are not allowed, as CS staff cannot help/provide a prize if the contest is not judged by the host. You may not offer real money/USD as a contest prize if it is hosted on CS. (New rule as of August 23, 2020)

  3. Any prizes you offer must be awarded to winners at the end of the contest - even if you cancel or close the contest early. If the entries were disappointing or you didn't get many to pick from, advertise and bump more to try and get more entries before you close.

  4. You can't list any prizes that aren't definitely going to be given out. This means you can no longer list conditional prizes (e.g. grand prizes) which you'll only give out if you get a particularly good entry. Every prize listed must be awarded at the end of the contest if the entry conditions are met.

  5. You can't change your promised prizes, unless you are changing them to something of the same (or higher) value. Any changes made must be accepted by the prize winner or contestants involved.

  6. If the prize is a pet you must link to the pet's profile page. This is to ensure that you actually own the pet and that there is no misunderstanding about the prize. Linking to pet groups is not sufficient regardless of how many total pets are involved. (New rule as of January 23, 2015)

  7. You can't trade or auction pets that you're offering in a contest.

  8. Contests without an advertised end date must end within 3 months. The end date can be changed or extended, but if the contest has been open for a long time without any activity from contestants or the contest holder than it may be forced closed by staff.

  9. Contests in total may not run more than 1 year past the original creation date. This is the maximum amount of time a contest may run and they may not be extended any further. (New rule as of February 6, 2017)

Hey everyone!! I'm working on getting these guys off the ground -- and that means I need an artist's team!

I'd like to start smaller, but may expand over time. I'll likely choose 1-3 artists, but possibly more!

You can view species guides here.

--------

✮ Contest Rules
- Each user is allowed up to 4 entries, and I would prefer each entrant does at least two so I can see some variety
- At the moment, artist responsibilities will only include adopts -- this may change in the future to include customs and breedings.

- What I'm looking for most is artists who can work within the species guidelines to create unique designs, and iterate and expand the species with me! Once all artists have been chosen, I'll organize a discord group for us to discuss species rules and back end organization.

--------

✮ Each entry must include:
- Height (in hands)
- Gender (cow/bull)
- Colour (in equine colour terms, and denoting marking type)(this is flexible)

- A sample contest idea (how you would adopt the design out, if it were official)

--------

✮ Prizes
All chosen users will get an artist's position, as well as the option to keep one of their entries as an artist's custom if they'd like to!

This will be my final contest, it is to design me an oc or optionally a creature/species!

This ends April 25th or when I get some entries!

Update 2/25: only one winner will be chosen!! I forgot to add this part in


What is the competition for?

I’m looking for someone to design me an oc and/or a species I’ve had in my head. An oc is mostly preferred. I haven’t thought of a name for them yet, but they’re a mix between a lion and a plant! For some lore, this species uses its unusual mane in its environment to hide and hunt, using a sweet smell to lure prey.

This creature must have the following:

- Lily or Poinsettia flower petal mane (idk 6 petals?)

- Lily of the valley tail (1 tail or 2 tails)

- Claws/overgrown claws (3 or 4 claws on each foot), dew claws are optional

- Leaves or petals on their shoulders down to the back (optional)

- One or two sets of ears

- This creature is unusually male dominated, females, if any, are rare

- Maybe they have accessories, like bells(?), fruits, flowers, leaves, feathers, vines ect.

If an oc is made: I like natural colors, rainbows, icy/warm colors, monochromatic colors!

If a reference sheet is being made, it must have: adult (male, female) and cub lines, and an optional maneless/lack of mane option for males

Both can be made, if you prefer!

New!! Theme ideas! Winter, cherry blossom


Rules!

- NO AI ART! Ai is not allowed, period!

- off oekiaki is alright!

- multiple entries are allowed!

- if the drawing on oekiaki, you can change up the background!


The prizes!! Only one winner will get all these!

helloooooo chicken smoothie!!

so i had this awesome idea, what if i host a competition where you draw your very own ocs for prizes!! i thought it would be fun and almost a “reverse” competition in a sense?? i dunno!


so, how does this work?

basically, what you’ll do is draw your oc(s) in the best way you possibly can! you’ll make a super cool piece and try and win 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place!! you will not be making me anything, only stuff for yourself! i’ll also try my best to dish out additional prizes to entries that i think are neat!


rules
- NO AI. EVER. immediate disqualification + block. ew.
- you will be drawing your own ocs, not mine, not anyone else’s!
- the coolest drawing wins a place! (unsure if i’ll judge or do a community vote, we’ll see!)
- you are not permitted to use bases for this competition
- you are not permitted to trace for this competition
- all skill levels are welcome!
- be nice to everyone or i’ll smack you with a rolled up newspaper 🗞️ 💥
- prizes will be given out at the end of the competition
- off oekaki is welcome :)
- you may not use artwork you created before this competition
- you may make multiple entries
- i will add more rules as needed to keep things balanced and fair.

I am supposed to put a prize for a winner or sumn. Very rare rat re-release. Everyone who enters when this opens up for entries gets as many wl pets as I can send though!!



I've given up on the V2 on CS because I can't get it to look right. Below is an imgbb image of the species itself, specifically a sketch of it. I don't expect any background updates since I already like the updated ones, uhh legacy stuff gets left alone for memories. Change all the newer stuff tho. Feel free to add new backgrounds if you'd like to, I don't mind ^^

Deadline is like. May 5th I guess at the latest. Or whenever I find the lines I like most.

Draw My Wolf Species!
by Andromeda @ Thu Jan 23, 2025 4:43 pm [Reply]

I'm planning to start a semi-realistic wolf ARPG, a bit like the warrior cats ones out there, but this one is pack based and runs along canon story events and world based events that affect players. It's gonna be fun hehe

However, my own art style is not what I'm looking for in the foundation of the lineart.
This competition is to draw the lineart for the species!

Requirements:

- Realistic WOLF: This one is HUGE, I don't want cartoon or animated lines, I want realistic, beautifully natural lines. A lot like the many horse adopts that can be found on this site. Of course you can put your own flare/style on it, as long as it isn't overly cartoony.

- Fur Length Options: Looking for very long and thick (like a Saint Bernard); Long (like a Husky), Medium (Like a Labrador or Malinois), and Thin (like a Greyhound or Rhodesian Ridgeback).

- Pup Lines: Like, a newborn bean, very simple, able to be replicated for litters

- Shading and Highlights: Also very important to me is some very attractive but not distracting shading and highlights

- Pose: I'd like the pose to be similar to the cutout I messily drew above, a full side profile of the body please! If you tweak the actual pose, that's totally fine, so long as the body and head are profile. Mouth can be open, closed, or have the option!

Neat Layers: As this will be a closed species, there will be artists coloring these in. It's very important to me as a species owner that these have neat, easy to edit layers. A layer for lines, a layer for shading, highlights, etc. And organized into respective folders i.e. fur-length, eye, paw pads, etc.

- Quality, Quality, Quality


Prizes!

1st Place Prize
- A ghost artist position (or full, if you'd like and know dog genetics)
- Your choice of either the OMGSR Gray Mini Husky or the OMGSR Nick Blue Toxic from this group
- c$1000 !!!

2 Runner Ups will receive c$200 each and any 5 rares/very rares you'd like from this group


Ends once I've found my new babies, or July 1st, whichever comes first

BlueberryBirdie @ Thu Jan 23, 2025 5:10 pm

I'm not the best at drawing and I likely wont win this but I want to try, mark! (and anyways this sounds like a pretty cool species idea that I will likely take part in even if I lose!!)

BlueEyedKite @ Sun Jan 26, 2025 2:43 am

Best of luck! I would love to see a wolf closed species, arpg or otherwise ^^

Read Desc!
by Wildwarriorpaws @ Wed Apr 09, 2025 1:55 pm [Reply]

So I've been in quite the art block lately and have many pieces to finish but I've been in the mood for some new Oc's.
Specifically cowboy/country Oc's, but I'm looking for a specific "look".
If any of you know the movie Tremors (def suggest to watch) I'm looking for something like that. Small desert/country town home to a small population. I'd love to make a storyline with these characters! So if anyone has ideas and would like to share..
Would love for them to be cat Oc's and you can draw a ref for them or describe them and the way they're character is portrayed (mood, thoughts, actions, etc) feral only!
Might add more to the desc later? ig I'm looking for desert cowboy if that makes sense?

Spiritstar3 @ Wed Apr 09, 2025 10:29 pm

Are these supposed to be animal OCs?
And are we meant to draw them, or just describe them?

Ooo, awesome.
I actually still am not great at drawing cats…I could try though.
How many are we allowed to do? If we can do more than one, I can do a description for one and then try and draw a second one.

Closed based on this drawing by Bunny!!
by Bunny!! @ Tue Feb 25, 2025 12:46 am [Reply]

My species Starlens is long overdue for a re-line. This does not have to be done on oekaki ! And can be in other styles like pixel and such!

I am asking for a lot of lines and I will go into that below. But I want you to know it's hefty!

I want to attempt to have this finish by the end of next month, but currently there is no exact date, as I mostly just want something I'm happy with!

examples of species I like the styles of;
* Please note, these are only to help better gauge what I like, do not heavily reference or steal from the species themselves!

buttermilk cows, I like the smooth-ness of the lineart, and the dark outer lines but softer inner lines

dino kittens, the clean, cute style of these, as well as the dynamic poses

Anemoi the more dynamic/fluid poses here, as well as the nice, life-like eyes!

If you want to show me examples of your work before you enter, so you can save time on everything, I'll lyk if I like your style or not for Starlens! Just please don't take it personal !

Other likes: well done glosses/shines (eyes, nose, wherever necessary), life-like eyes, clean and opaque lines; so when colored they stay nice and dark, more dynamic poses; to keep the species from looking "stiff"

Moving on to requirements
Starlens have a lot of lines already, I want to keep a lot of them but I'm cutting out whatever I can to lessen the amount! To start, adolescent/kit lines are not required, I won't be needing them. same goes for the background and reference features, I prefer these to have a blank/transparent background

Line edits that are required;
ears
- Either the rabbit ears OR the bunny ears, it's too repetitive to have both unless you want to!
- cat ears
- I don't like the design of the small ears so these are not required, but if you make them work it can be extra :)
- medium ears
- long ears
======================
tails
- rabbit / bunny tails are the same situation, pick one or the other unless you wanna do both!
- we don't need both cat tails but I do like both, feel free to do only one though!
- raccoon tail ↓
- fox tail, these two ↑ could probably be combined into one to save time, that's your choice as well!
- lion tail
- lizard tail
- rat tail
======================
horns
- unicorn horn
-small horns
- Demon horns
- Dragon horns
======================
wings
- chibi wings, will also accept "small" wings
- feathered wings
- bat wings
- fairy/bug wings
======================
accessories
- halo, just one is okay ! More preferred
- necklace
- collar
- socks
======================
other
-egg lines, they should have a little fluff on them around the base but otherwise feel free to get creative !

Non-required line edits;
Extra features like ears, tails, expressions, wings, are always extremely helpful
Extra accessories are greatly appreciated
A title is very helpful, my handwriting is bad x)
Any other extras are always going to help a score


rules
- unfortunately, Starlens are a closed species so it's hard for me to do what I'd like and say "use your lines made however if you don't win" but, if you can change it enough you are free to!
- the line edits are really important, and necessary, I will still consider entries without them, but would like if we could discuss adding them in the future !
- please ask any questions, I want to work with anyone to get a good turnout to use!
- if you enter, and win, I will ask for special written permission to use these offline and such as I need, please be in contact once you win to answer my pm to do so!

Profile Picture Contest
by NumbatNibbles @ Sun Mar 09, 2025 10:26 am [Reply]

I'm looking for a profile picture of Widget, an NPC in the Eevee Terrarium ARPG.
As Widget is a Pokémon, even if she is a fusion, I cannot offer any sort of prize.
I can however offer a permanent spot in the credits channel of the Eevee Terrarium Discord, even if Widget's profile picture changes in the future.

You are allowed to add or remove things as you see fit, as long as the generic Eevee/Eeveelution shape is kept, as Widget is a Spiritomb-Eevee hybrid.

I am OFF-OEKAKI FRIENDLY! If your entry is off-oekaki, please comment the image using an uploader like imgbb.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

      Howdy! I'll cut to the chase - I want to create a Warrior Cat ARPG that is more centered around development, not as strict on genetics, and a different experience from the others currently on CS!

      HOWEVER, while my creative muse is at a high, my artistic abilities are... not exactly what I'm envisioning for this. SO! What better way to get rid of my absurd amount of CS pets than to open this competition? If it's a bust, oh well, y'all get pets, and I get a cute kitty base! In any case, let's get to the details! If you have any questions, please contact me here or on Discord [dimidude].

      What Am I Looking For?
      I am looking for a cute cat base. I'm not looking for something hyper realistic - sparkly eyes, a cute expression, all of it goes. Something that you would look at in the adoptable board and go "ooh, that looks cute!"

      Required:
      - A fluffy/longfur base
      - A sleek/shortfur base
      - A kitten base. No different fur versions necessary!
      - A paw pad and eye reference. [No Palette]

      Not Required, but Appreciated!:
      - Any backgrounds - forest, snowy, desert, beach, anything that comes to mind!
      - Built in weight edits [chubby and skinny]
      - Different expressions [closed eyes, frown, smiling, anything comes to mind!]

      Prizes
      Ah yes, the thing you greedy gremlins /j hard working artists are looking forward to the most!

      I will only be keeping the 1st place lineart to use for my ARPG. The other two prizes are so my other two favorite entries receive something - nothing more!

      First Place: First pick of 50 Pets from this group [all rare+] + 500 C$
      Second Place: Second pick of 30 pets from this group + 154 C$
      Third Place: Remaining 20 pets in above group after 1st/2nd pick + 154 C$

        Highlights:
        ImageImageImageImageImage

      When does this competition end?
      Excellent question! This competition has a tentative end date of April 30th, 2025. HOWEVER, if I find a lineart I really adore before then, I may close the competition early.

Hi there! I’m am looking to start a species called Peryton, (like marumi, COTN, fables etc.) please know that by entering this, you are giving me and other Peryton artists permission to reproduce these lines but as you can see on the cover, I can’t draw to save my life (it took me like 20 minutes to sketch the Peryton…) anyways, the important stuff!

ENDED EARLY! If you were working on an entry and didn’t get to finish, please finish if you want and I will be happy to give out the remaining prizes😊


Perytons!

A Peryton is a mythical creature that is said to have the head, neck, forelegs and antlers of a stag or deer, combined with the plumage, wings and hindquarters of a large bird

Welcome to my line my species comp <3

First lets start off with what I want!

Perytons should have all the physical traits listed above, and look majestic (personal preference😁)
Inspo pics!
I would be fine with a cute but still somewhat complex one or a realistic one like these
Cute: https://ibb.co/Vjrm7MK
Realistic: https://ibb.co/wCRDt1V
I would love a pose like the first picture for the adult! ⬆️
Fawn: https://ibb.co/wJQDRS7 would love this pose for the fawn!
Wings tucked to side: https://ibb.co/QdgMLSb I do not like the extra feathers on this one!

Extra references: https://ibb.co/9H6rjvn⬅️ back legs are supposed to be bird talons, not hooveshttps://ibb.co/WFDRxkK I REALLY like the second pose for the fawns!

Needed!!!

Adult lines + layer for coloring
Baby lines + layer for coloring

Very much enjoyed, please include if possible
A separate layer for the wings
A pair of wings out and spread on a different layer Just open for the fawn!
A pair of wings tucked by the Peryton’s side on a different layer
Longer and shorter versions of the tail on a different layer

Not necessary but enjoyed

Different antler lengths
named layers + folders (pretty small on my want list because I can do that if needed)


Feel free to add a background(s) but its not needed <3

Now, to the part you've been waiting for, the prizes <3
This group! The 3rd place pet is not a prize pet because the pets differ as to who wins 3rd place also, whoever wins is welcome to become an artist for Perytons!

Cleuds Artist Search


    hello and welcome to the official cleuds artist search! if you would like to know more about cleuds as a species, please click here! this will be an ongoing search where we invite people wanting to get involved as a character designer for cleuds.
    the responsibilities of an artist include:
      - creating founders
      - creating adopts, judging their competitions timely
      - designing and rolling for litters
      - growing up cleud pups
      - transferring old cleuds
      - taking customs
    i understand that this can be a wide-ranging skillset and a lot to do for someone volunteering their free time, so specializing in one or two responsibilities would be totally okay and encouraged! for example, if you enjoyed creating free founders and litters, you could be a founder/nursery artist only.

    if you're interested in becoming an artist or guest artist (similar to artists - however they only stay on board for a trial period of a month before being offered full artist position), please create some entries here!
    some rules regarding the artist search:
      - all CS and cleud rules apply
      - these cleuds ARE NOT REAL CLEUDS. they are not to be sold, adopted, traded, or owned by anyone
      - please do not remove the "fake" on the canvas
      - please make sure you either create a cover for your entries, or easily link to them so I can see all of them!
      - you may create as many entries as you want, please be mindful of the rarities possible (seen below) I would love to see quality over quantity.

        any cleuds with no changes from normal traits are called standard or "wild type" cleuds.
        cleud pack founders will always be wild types.


        common: longer body fur, shorter body fur, hair, visible claws, heterochromia, custom eye shine

        uncommon: stormy cloud fluff, custom tails, custom ears, longer teeth, more cloud fluff, custom pupil/iris shapes

        rare: snowy cloud fluff, less cloud fluff, custom star shape, two tails, altered height, permanently glowing stars

        mythical: three or more tails, rainbow cloud fluff, transparent cloud fluff

        traits with no rarity: expression changes, weight changes, accessories

    fill out this form when creating entries or on your cover page!
    Code: Select all
    Username:
    Activity level on CS:
    Art/Character design examples: [preferably links]
    Would you like to specialize in anything?:

This year I’m surprising my Mom with Christmas themed drawings on our windows in a few days.
However, we’ve got weird windows. It’s a very pretty diamond pattern that is wonderful, but not
so much for when it comes to decorating. So I figured that while I was making a mock up of my
windows to figure out how to go about the design, why not let some other people weigh in their
ideas? So! Here we are. End date/rules/prizes below!

Prizes
I of course can’t send the winner off with nothing so
there will be three winners that all will be picking from
the same group. First place gets to pick first and take five
pets. Second place then gets to pick four and then third
also gets to select four but will be going last.
link to group

Requirements / recommendations
- your design can only use white, no other colors
- you may change the color of the window pane / wood panels
if that makes it easier for you, just make sure to keep the diamond
shapes visible
- of course must be Christmas / winter themed and CS appropriate
-can be any level of complicated/simple and can utilize or ignore
the diamonds

- I would prefer to have snowflakes in the design but it is not
necessary. Other themes could be beach or nativity themes.
Animals are welcome as well; my mom is especially fond of
flamingos and Snoopy

Must be finished by
12 / 10
Unfortunately I’ve gone about this rather late but I will be
choosing my top three favorites late on Tuesday

Thank you to anyone who enters! I know this is a bit of a different competition
from what’s normally seen but I hope that it can be fun nonetheless.



Tilluels-Paradise @ Mon Dec 09, 2024 3:36 am

Finished my piece

lilpupin @ Wed Dec 11, 2024 5:42 am

Bump for last day (:

Kazin @ Sun Dec 22, 2024 3:32 am

Hi there, though this contest is now closed, please note for the future that all prizes must be linked in a contest.

As stated in the Oekaki Contest rules,

If the prize is a pet you must link to the pet's profile page. This is to ensure that you actually own the pet and that there is no misunderstanding about the prize. Linking to pet groups is not sufficient regardless of how many total pets are involved.


Please don't hesitate to reach out to staff if you ever have any questions or concerns! ^^
