Just asking because if we're designing a litter I assume you'd want them to look similar but not the same.

You should include whichever shows the best range of your abilities. Your goal for this is not so much to make an actual litter, but rather to show off your skills!

CS pets are the same size as you see them on the site. Unfortunately sometimes it can be tricky to work on a small canvas like that, but I think the template is reflective of that challenge.

- Is there an age limit on being an artist? It said some limits on a few positions but I didn’t see artist anywhere.
- Does Clip Studio Paint work as a drawing tool?
- I joined 4 months ago, can I still apply?
- I haven’t been doing digital art for long either as most of my art has been traditional, but the traditional I’ve been doing for years. Which should I count?
- I saw Seasonal mentioned “features that regular users do not have access to”. Which features are these?

Thanks for any help! My heart actually skipped a beat when I saw this-


No age limit for artists.
Yes. Clip Studio Paint is fine. It's what I use when I occasionally make pets! Anything that opens PSDs is fine though, including things like GIMP or FireAlpaca.
I believe anyone can submit an application.
We want to know specifically how long you've been creating digital art, but you are welcome to breifly mention traditional as well.
Seasonal was referring to behind the scenes features. Artists receive access to information they cannot share with other users an such.

Sad to see Yugi go, their artistic ability will not go unappreciated!

If you fill out multiple templates, how should you submit them? Should you copy/paste them into one image or send multiple in a zipped file or something?

You can submit the extras as part of your additional examples. If you don't want to use them as extra examples, you should just pick the best one and submit it.

This is a little late. My last message asking this didn't submit.
I am looking for an app or website that works well for mobile to do this with. I'd prefer something that is simple to use, no ads/payment needed tounlock things, and a good download for this to submit it.
Thanks so much.

Hi there I sent in my application and it was taking a while to submit so I left for a few minutes. I came back and I'm not sure it submitted my application or not? It just looked like how it originally was before attaching any files or typing any words. Is it supposed to be like that? Sorry for all of the questions I just want to be sure it submitted, but if not I can try again.

Thanks,

If your application is blank then it did not submit properly. I'd suggest submitting the written parts first and then going back and adding in the images, sometimes if an image is too big or in the incorrect file it won't submit properly.

Hey, one more quick question. Hope I'm not asking too many!
Are we allowed to blend colors in the color palettes? Also, are we allowed to use variants of the colors at all, or only the exact colors? (For example, could I make some of the colors slightly lighter or darker, or can they only be the exact color and tone?) Thanks so much!
