I would like to present to you another DAM contest! We are growing so we need more active artists :3
I'm thinking about making these a colorable lineart for DAM owners >;3
For those who dont Know!
D.A.M. means Desert Appaloosa Mustang
and as you can guess these will require an Appaloosa Pattern.
*No Paints
and No Pintaloosas (paint x appaloosa)*
-If you aren't sure what either of these look like or aren't sure if your favorite marking is a paint or appaloosa.. PM me to make sure, do not just go ahead with it (this is IF you are unsure).
-If you are asked to change your design and you do Not do so before the end date you will be automatically disqualified.
-Do Not Take my Sig Off
Or
-Take these lines and use them for something else..
-Any Bending of the Rules will be warned only .:Once:., then REPORTED without notice.
