[Oddly Shaded]

Welcome!

CLOSED FOR JUDGING
Please note:
I was actually admitted to hospital this morning and am still not well (don't worry, i'm ok, and have been discharged now). I will probably choose the winner sometime soon, as well as the other places of course.

Thanks for your patience.

UPDATES
- I decided to update the front page to see if it would draw in more users. Good luck everyone!

- Hey guys, has anyone noticed the Merle PPS is now a VERY RARE. There are now 3 very rare prizes in the prize pool.

Ok. So here's my life story... Jokes... I'm just gonna tell you a little about me and characters. So I have a thing for really weird and wonderful character, I don't look at the quality of your design, I look at it's potential (aka. If you use a mouse and don't have perfect lines etc) so that every entry has a chance. I have always really tried to pick and choose the characters I keep. But sometimes there are a handful that make it into my collection and I later give away to good homes. BUT I have promised myself that I will not keep/offer for character that I don't need/want/dream about. I cannot wait to see the entries!!

End Date is May 1st!

A few Rules to consider:

Please remember to follow ALL of Tess' oekaki & competition rules.
- Try your hardest to stick with what I like and keep away from what I dislike.
- Do not spam this thread/double post etc.
- Be supportive of other contestants and do not criticize. (You may ask for crit, but only myself with reply)
- Edit the lines as much as you want
- Feel free to make your own lines
- Do NOT REMOVE MY SIGNATURE (Unless you use your own lines of course)

I think thats all...

Things that I LOVE:

~ Edits (Manes, tails, accessories, wings etc etc.)
~ Spontanious and outragious designs
~ The use of Teal
~ I cannot make it clear enough how much accessories mean
to me >.> They really define a character.... Add them.

Onto what I like:

~ Characters with meanings
~ Strong and powerful colourations
~ Natural base colours
~ Tri colour base
~ Neon marking colours
~ Complicated designs - to a degree...
~ Tiger Stripes & Leopard Spots
~ Swirls With spots
~ Goth & Scene designs
~ Creatures tribally in the designs
~ Tribal Markings
~ Time and Effort
~ Line Edits/ re-shading = <3
~ Wings (If it works!)
~ Merle (Perferably Blue Merle)
~ Horses & Dogs
~ Masks (Bone, masquerade, steam-punk ect..)
~ Accessories (Big Big Plus)
~ Fantasy
~ Something to involve 'Acting';'Drama';'Music';'The Arts'
~ The Characters own pet - Reptilian or fluffy creature

For examples of what I like click here

What i'm not really into:

~ Neon Base colours
~ TOO MUCH blood and gore - Unless it comes together nicely
~ Bright pink (Though a hot pink is alright if not used overly)
~ Spiders. I HATE them.
~ Simple Characters
~ 5 minute entries
~ Less of a chance with Cats

Colours I Like:

~ Browns (Bays on dogs & Horses)
~ Natural Colouration
~ Horse Markings (Paints/Dapples etc) On dogs
~ Neons: Teal; Blue; Green; Purple (Cool colours mainly)

I think I'll be trying something; I was looking through your likes and came up with something, so hopefully it'll turn out the way I wanted |D

Grand Prize
May NOT be handed out. Unless I find a fantastic entry I love.

This also includes:
Either another 2 pets of their choose, or a custom artwork by myself, & 5 pets from my trades group

3. You can't list any prizes that aren't definitely going to be given out. This means you can no longer list conditional prizes (e.g. grand prizes) which you'll only give out if you get a particularly good entry. Every prize listed must be awarded at the end of the contest if the entry conditions are met.

You should probably edit this before you get into trouble, sorry to mini-mod I'd just like to give you a fair warning.

[Oddly Shaded]

Well, I guess it's a certainty that he's getting handed out then But thank you.

EDIT+
I added a section of what I love to see.

[kes.]
