CONGRATULATIONS TO THE TOP 3 WINNERS<3

It was difficult to pick, so many wonderful entries! ; w ;
But after much thought and considertion, I've decided on the winners<3
I'll send out the prizes, other participants can keep their entries if they want. c:

*I need to sleep as I have a big project at work tomorrow*
*I'll be sending out the prizes the minute I get home, please take note<3*
*I'm just updating first, so you guys know the winners (expect a trade sometime today guys)*

______________________________________________________

---- { 1ST PLACE ; } ----

Fera

You included many elements of my interests and hobbies into the design<3
The care given to details were amazing, and the marking are just wonderful. c:
I don't how to explain it, but the design was just immediately appealing to me. ^ ^

---- { 2ND PLACE ; } ----

FenFen

For her unique lineart, and adorable art style<3
Also because her design took an interesting direction. c:
I absolutely love the little details in the design, and her companion<3

---- {3RD PLACE ; } ----

ChipChap

For having so many different details in your design. c:
I love it a lot, the accessories are a nice touch and I love the hair<3
I wasn't too fond of the tutu that much (I don't own or wear any IRL either XD).
But the overall design is pleasant and has many details that I like base on my interests<3

---- { LAST MINUTE HONORABLE MENTION ; } ----

Missy Kitty

For drawing her own unique lines twice if I remember correctly.
The finally edit has such an adorable line, I had to still mention it<3
It didn't have a lot of details base on my interests, though the lines are too cute<3
This was a last minute decision, and you'll be receiving a small little surprise from me. XD

______________________________________________________

Thank you all for entering<3
And I'm sorry I couldn't pick everyone as winners! ; w ;
I had to narrow it down.. but I really appreciate all the entries and effort! <3

.:: Notice ::.

The contest has ended!

I'll be working on judging all the entries and picking a winner<3
Please bear with me as I'm on a small netbook, I'm travelling long distances right now.
However I'll make sure to have the results up in a couple of hours at most! Be patient with me please<3




Well... a year or two ago, I tried to design my fursona. :3
Unfortunately.. I really can't draw too well. ^ ^"
I've only managed to get a rough idea of how she may look like.
But I think it's about time I redefine her look and finally get a sort of ref for her. :3
That's what this contest will be about- helping me redefine how my fursona will look like. XD

You may enter as many times as you want. :3 (if you win, I keep the designs. ^ ^)
The more times you enter (quality, not just quantity) the better the chance of winning. XD





Image There will be three winners chosen. Image
Image 1st Place Prize, 2nd Place Prize, and 3rd Place Prize Image

Image If you don't win, you can keep your designs- I'll only keep the 1st place design. Image
Image 2nd and 3rd place can keep their designs, and will still receive their prizes. Image


Image 1st Place Prize Group Image
------ 5 rares from 09' ------
------ May pick 2 pets from the Prize Grab Group ------

Image 2nd Place Prize Group Image
------ 4 rares from Halloween 12' ------
------ May pick 1 pet from the Prize Grab Group ------

Image 3rd Place Prize Group Image
------ Uncommons from 12' and 13' ------

Image 1st place may pick 2 pets from this group, 2nd place may pick 1. Image



Well, those are the prizes. It's my first competition, hopefully I'll have better prizes in future contests. XD
Now on to the info that will help in designing my fursona. I'll be listing down my likes and dislikes, and a brief info on my fursona's original design.




Image

Image Below was my fursona's first draft design, described in words. Image
Image Remember, this was her first draft idea- you're free to design something completely new or different from this draft :3 Image

Image Some people have asked, so I repeat- was her first concept. You can design something completely different. ^ ^ Image

Fursona's Description. wrote:
- She has black fur, with white leopard markings down her nose.. the back of her head, her neck, down her spine, till halfway to her tail. With a small red heart tattoo just at the side of her right eye, she has eyeliner as well.

- Her hair varies, but her most common hair style is a black ponytail of medium length and a long black fringe which covers her left eye and face. (An idea of how her usual hairstyle is using a CS pet) Her less common hairstyle has a rusty maroon color, with a long fringe that covers her left eye and face, but just lacks the ponytail.

- Her standard clothes consist of a simple black lolita top with 1 row of white lace at the bottom of the top and 2 rows of white lace on the sleeves; with a red ribbon around the waist. Occasionally she will wear a simple black skirt, somewhat similar to a simple black schoolgirl skirt to match with her lolita top (example -it should be shorter-). Her alternate attire is a long kimono as shown by the examples, except that black and red colors would be switched. (example | example | example | example)

- Her accessories consist of 3 silver bands on her tail, two closer to the base of her tail, one closer to the tip. On her head, pink cherry blossom hair pin and a red lolita headband. And around her neck, a thick studded choker and a thin purple ribbon with a small skull pendent. Lastly, on her left front wrist is a studded armband, and on her right front wrist, a black armband with a white skull and two red neon bracelets. Occasionally she will carry around a Japanese fan with the characters "黒貓" on it, and also with cat-related motifs adorning it.

*I am aware the text reads "Black Cat" and the lineart is a canine- the text is meant to be on the fan or an accessory of some sort, the meaning behind is the characters are part of my nickname IRL. :3*

Image

- Accompanying her is usually a pure black rabbit with red eyes, representing someone close to her. The rabbit isn't your average woodland creature, it's just a form the being that accompanies her takes. The rabbit is usually in an attire similar to the one in Alice In Wonderland, except the color of it's attire consist more of red+black instead of red+white.
Image
---------- this is the only art I have of her, a fake pet design by noleah<3 ----------




Image

Image You are free to incorporate as many themes as you choose in your design. :3 Image
Image The more themes used in your design the better, but it has to be done correctly and blend well. ^ ^Image

Can I draw it originally or do I have to use the lineart?
I'm much better in SAI than on oekaki. ^_^;

It's completely up to you. :3
I just like this particular lineart since it's easy and good as a ref. X'D

But if you're more comfortable with your own lineart or drawings, go right ahead<3
Just link me when you're done so I can take note of it. ^ ^
