𝐑𝐔𝐋𝐄𝐒

∘ Both digital and traditional entries are welcome, but I expect the highest possible upload quality for the traditional entries
∘ Artists of all levels are welcome to participate — I’ll be judging first and foremost the effort put into the art
∘ Original work only — use of bases, AI, tracing or copying somebody else's work is strictly prohibited
∘ You can enter as many times as you like, however, I’d like to emphasize that I’ll be judging quality, not quantity
∘ Each entry will be awarded a participation prize — one prize per one artwork (submitting multiple artworks at the same
time? you receive one prize per every artwork)
∘ When submitting an entry, use the provided form — make a new form for every new entry (submitting multiple artworks at the
same time? one form will suffice, but should you make another artwork later on, make a new entry form for it)
∘ You may submit your entry via a PM if that’s preferred, however, you must still use the form and I will post your username along
with the entry unless you request to remain anonymous
∘ You may draw entries that are not CS-friendly, however, you are to discuss and submit those via Discord (ask via pm) or TH and
you have to provide a “clean” CS-friendly version so the entry can be posted here on CS
∘ By participating, you are permitting me to post your artwork off-site with proper credit
∘ Naturally, you are free to use the artwork as part of your commissions' portfolio and post it, but please credit me for chara design
∘ The contest may be extended upon request
∘ I reserve the right to end the contest early or extend it as I see fit
∘ There are guaranteed to be 3 winners and 2 runner-ups at the end of this contest
∘ Any form of harassment toward other contestants during or after the contest is strictly prohibited and will be reported
∘ I’m more than happy (eager even) to answer questions about my characters to help you get your creative juices flowing but
when it comes to judging, I will remain neutral and judge the artworks objectively
∘ Don’t hesitate to pm me with questions or drop them here on the thread, however, if you know your question/issue is going to
need more extensive communication, talking over pms is preferred ♡

𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒
note; this section isn't fully complete yet, I'm still working out chunks of it, especially for drawing charas together, which will be a subsection of its own

Art type:
xx∘ Scenes with background
xx∘ Pixel art
xx∘ Creative memes

Accuracy:
xx∘ Staying true to design*
xx∘ Capturing character's personality

xx*You are free to experiment with outfits and aesthetics of my characters to your heart’s content, but try to stay as accurate as
xxpossible with the physical appearance (hair & eye colors, hairstyles, body types, etc.) — unless you are doing a gender swap and
xx/ or a deliberate full aesthetics swap, in which case, go ham ♡

Nikolas & Alexander
> standard siblings; a lot of love, a lot of hate, a lot of rivalry, and a lot of getting on each other's nerves and getting in
each other's ways due to vastly different core values and goals, but ultimately, they got each other's backs
> polar opposites; Nikolas is the troublemaker and the black sheep of the family while Alexander is the pacemaker and
the golden child

Aleksej & Markus
> literal golden retriever and black cat duo, need I say more? [i](because I gladly will >.<)
> childhood best friends who grew apart and reconciled over the past two-three years, getting on like a house on fire
> mutual pining is present but it's tough to make sense of their "misguided feelings" while living in a heavily religious
small town in 1970s - 1980s, so they continue being "just friends" that happen to be reeally close
> they enjoy going on hiking trips and other adventures into the nature that surrounds their town
> in social settings, they don't act all that different from their usual selves, but when it's just the two of them, their
mischievous and playful sides shine through; teasing and pulling harmless pranks are common occurence

WINNERS


1st place winner

zee, — entry

I’ve liked this piece from the very moment I’ve seen it, but the more I looked at it, the more I fell in love with it. Everything about it just spoke to me; the colors, the fluidity of the movement, the atmosphere seeping from it; it hit every mark and found its way to the top of nearly every category my mind produced to judge the entries before I even knew what those categories would be. I absolutely adore the color palette; the stylistic choices; the pose which is so dynamic and fluid, breathing with motion; the way I can basically feel the crisp autumn breeze on my skin and smell the earthy forest scent after a sudden rainshower just by looking at it; and I could go on and on, but to put it simply, this piece just completely blew me away ♡



2nd place winner

♥the♥bone♥thief♥ — entry

This one had me literally kicking my legs all giddy, and truth be told, I actually closed the tab the second after I’d clicked on it, because I was not mentally prepared for that level of adorableness the first thing in the morning x"D
But once I got over myself, I couldn't stop staring and adoring this piece. It breathes with so much character and captures both their personalities and their dynamics perfectly, I mean, just look at those expressions! I’ve since grown a bit of mental fortitude, but it doesnt matter whether I’m seeing it for the first time or for the hundreath, I can’t help but smile and feel giddy all over again c":



3rd place winner

beeqlass — entry

There are so many reasons I just love this scene and how perfectly it works for the pair, but let me start by saying that the bit I love the most is how perfectly it captures their dynamics and how canon this is to their story. I further adore how everything about their expressions and body language and actions fits their respective characters so perfectly. And the scenery itself is just stunning ♡




4th place winner

peachypunk — entry

I find solace and comfort in this peace, its atmosphere wisping around me like a warm, soothing blanket. It perfectly captures Charlie’s character and I adore their subtle smile, the relaxation and calmness expressed in their facial features. Makes me want to brew myself a cup of tea to sip right alongside them vuv



RUNNER-UPS


1st place runner-up

Gelée Nova — entry

This one’s the best depiction of his character yet; chills, absolute chills. I often don’t do him justice, but you captured his vibe and character perfectly, from the pose you chose to the expression and the body language :0

Also I adore the way you draw hands so much ;o;



2nd place runner-up

B a m b o o — entry

This could be just me, but he’s giving me such major cult leader vibes in this one with that expression and open arms, and you know what, that sounds about fitting for him, as starting a cult out of boredom is absolutely something he would do in his free time, so shoutout to you for showing me this side of him (whether it was intentional or not), which I’ve honestly didn’t really think about before but definitely fits his lore xD



3rd place runner-up

Wheeze — entry

I love the choice of pose in this one, the looking over the shoulder, the way the colors come together and how the fire illuminates him, also the fire itself is drawn so gorgeously!

And the colors are just “muah” *chef’s kiss*

You did my boi justice cx



4th place runner-up

$$Space moon$$ — entry

The pose and his smile are everything, I adore this piece so much for how perfectly it encapsulates Alexander’s character and how the perspective chosen for the pose adds to the atmosphere the piece emits. Your vision for the piece is truly remarkable! ^.^



5th place runner-up

kaisisles — entry

The colors and the way they come together in this one are simply stunning, I’m still in awe over your artstyle, and how the piece pops with so much vibrancy and life. I also love how you included his sunglasses, which adds even more character to the piece c:
