Species Competition open for entries
- Hello and welcome to my species competition! There are prizes here that I believe are worth stopping by for, and I want to thank you for doing so! Even if you can't enter the competition, sharing is very much appreciated! I want to be very clear with what I'm looking for in this competition because I want everyone to have an equal chance at winning. This Species will be canine based, so if you don't like drawing canines this isn't the competition for you! I also plan to have a discord for this species once it is live, and a show competition will be used to progress this species. All winning artists will be added to the species as official artists who can create adopts freely and of any rarity.
Species Information
- The Hill Country Canine has been bred to be both a beautiful breed, but also a functional one. They are mainly used to protect large areas of farmland, and some even have their own set of horns. The HCCA, Hill Country Canine Association, has recently opened up a show competition to display this breed's beauty and skills in herding. They are very smart, and can easily learn tricks that can help them be the life of any party. They are a laid back breed, but remember they are a working dog breed and require plenty of exercise to stay healthy. They are considered a large breed, and their size has been developed to help them herd cattle more safely. The species was bred by Hill Country Texans, which is what gives the breed its name, for the sake of having a family friendly, working dog.

These traits are up to the artist to decide on. For example, one of the uncommon traits you decide to do can be folded ears while your legendary trait could be the Dragon horns. There are no requirements of which traits to use for which rarity, so feel free to be creative with this part.

Winning Entry Prizes
- The winner of this competition will receive 200C$ + 2 Listed Store Pets of their Choice. If you win and I use your lines, you must agree to the following rules. If you win, I will ask you once again to agree to the rules directly for record keeping purposes.
> Can create Adopts on ChickenSmoothie
> Allowed to be on Toyhouse (with line credits to you)
> Allowed to sell for C$
> Allowed to sell for USD On Toyhouse Only (so that you are properly credited for lines)
> As the Original base Artist, you will always have the right to create adopts whenever you wish of any rarity
> If ownership transfer is required, you will be approached first if you wish to take over the species or buy back the lines.
If selected as the winner, I will send you a message letting you know and restating the rules above. If you agree to them, I will send out the trade with your prize!
Second and Third Place
- The second place winner will get 2 listed store pets of their choice after the first place winner has received theirs. If your entry wins second place, you will not be able to use the lines as you wish after the competition. Once you have accepted and received your prize, your lines can be used in the future. If that is the case, you will be notified of the species going live and be added to the artist list. You will be added as an artist for the species that wins first place and you will also be able to make adopts as you please and of any rarity.
The Third place winner will get the remaining listed store pet after the first and second place winners claim their pets. Once you have accepted the trade, your lines may not be used after the competition unless I, personally, create a species later on with them. That being said, you will be notified prior to it going live when that happens. You will be added as an artist to the winning entry and be able to make adopts as you wish, and of any rarity.
