Rat Design/Species Needed

Postby Jennen372 » Sun Aug 31, 2014 2:14 am

Good day to you all. c:
I'm holding a little competition.

Rules:
-PLEASE DO NOT use my lines -- I'm not an artist and that picture I drew is worthless
-There will only be one winner
-If you are NOT chosen as the winner, you may keep your design at the end
-There will be no end date; I'll stop the competition once I see a design that I prefer
-You may use other programs (Sai, Photoshop, etc) as well as the Oekaki.


**NOTE: I'm looking for a simple reference sheet of the following creature. I would prefer the background to be white or transparent.
I would also prefer it to be drawn in an exaggerated realism style. Example - notice how exaggerated his features are, yet how realistic the painting is.

Description:
This rat should be very dirty, disgusting, slimy, as flea-bitten as possible. These would be the kind of rats that spawn in trashy areas, and live as thieves. I would like it to have natural colors and features; however more exaggerated (torn ears, large teeth, grizzly claws, etc)

Based on my personal storyline, this particular group of rats live on an abandoned shipping dock near the ocean. They hide in the factory building and barrels and hoard their precious items in the location. They will hold ransoms and keep the innocent captive within the basement and other underground areas. Considering their disgusting and diseased nature, touching even one of them is nearly a death-sentence. Because of this knowledge, they tend to guard and fight alone.

Prizes for the Winner:
**NOTE: Once my other competition ends, I will be putting whatever is left in my inventory up for a prize, PLUS everything already listed below.

Okay, so I have a question, are you looking for a line-art or a design? And do you want it to have the natural colors of a rat? Just a bit confused, what are you planing on using it for?

I apologize for not explaining it more clearly. I was certainly rushing when I made this.
Yes, I would like it to have the natural colors of a rat.

Being that I'm looking for a reference sheet, I would prefer it not to have a background.
I'll be using the winner's design as a basis for ordering more art in the future.

I would say certainly try your best.
As long as it has shading, hair lines, color, etc, it should be perfect. c:

Anywhere between this style and this style would be exactly what I'm looking for. <3
