Freedom Forest Dwellers Artist Contest

Postby dragons whisper » Wed Jun 04, 2014 2:27 am

I am holding a contest for FFD Artists! There are different types, each type artist has to do different things so check before you start!

Breeding Artist:
A breeding artist will be responsible for designing the foals of FFD pairs. You will be given a pair of equids and the foal owner may ask for specific traits. It is your job to make the foal resemble the parents and have the features asked for where possible. So in order to prepare you for this role you need to:

Design a foal from any one of the three pairs below (or all of them). Once you have designed it make sure you say which pair you chose in the first post!

Original Artist:
Original artists make regular FFD adopts. Just be creative. Have fun, but DO NOT steal any designs of any other adoptable, anywhere.

So your challenge is to design up to 2-4 unique FFD's.

~Equine influence on their anatomy.
~Females and Males are very similar except Males ALWAYS have 3 spikes on their checks and have chest hair.
~Tundra FFD's have lots of hair.
~Tundra Females have short chest hair.
~Tundra FFD's have long tail and mane.
~They live with Taurens in the world Uturia.
~The measuring system for Freedom Forest Dwellers is just like with horses, their height is measured only from the hooves to their shoulders in Hands.
~They can have any horse coat, but have specific patterns:

Appaloosa:
Blanket - refers to a horse which has a solid white area normally over, but not limited to, the hip area with a contrasting base color.

Spots - refers to a horse which has white or dark spots over all or a portion of its body.

Blanket With Spots - refers to a horse with a white blanket which has dark spots within the white. The spots are usually the same color as the horse's base color.

Roan - A horse exhibiting the Appaloosa roan pattern develops a lighter colored area on the forehead, jowls and frontal bones of the face, over the back, loin and hips. Darker areas may appear along the frontal bones of the face as well and also on the legs, stifle, above the eye, point of the hip and behind the elbow. Without an apparent Appaloosa blanket or spots, a horse with only the above-listed characteristics will also need mottled skin and one other characteristic to qualify for regular registration.

Roan Blanket - refers to a horse having the roan pattern consisting of a mixture of light and dark hairs, over a portion of the body. The blanket normally occurs over, but is not limited to, the hip area.

Roan Blanket With Spots - refers to a horse with a roan blanket which has white and/or dark spots within the roan area.

Solid - refers to a horse which has a base color but no contrasting color in the form of an Appaloosa coat pattern. This horse will need mottled skin and one other characteristic to receive regular papers.

Freckle Layer: it's common for the layers tobiano, splash and overo to develop tiny spots on certain areas.

Bengal: markings composed of spots and stripes mixed together resembling the pattern of a marble bengal cat’s. They never reach the head or cover the legs and are of a darker tone of the base color. Its very rare if they do.

Brindling: thin stripes that either cover the whole body or just specific parts of it. In most cases the color is a darker tone of the base coat, but there are times it can be a lighter tone instead due to environment influence or even genetic reasons.

Dapple: Light spots covering the whole body or certain areas.

~Always have brindle/stripy patterns (very very rarely they don't have brindle)
~They have 3 ringed horns running down their nose and 2 beside their ears.
~Always have spots or some sort of Appaloosa (very very very rarely the don't have spots)
~They have no magical properties.
~Very rare but sometimes have different shapes of horns.

You can use existing FFD designs as inspiration. Just be creative. There's not very many FFD's anyway, but... yeah.

Deviant Art Artist:
This kind of artists has to do the same requirements as an origonal artist, but they must have a DA account and be full time to FFD Adopts on DA. What this Artist will do is color in Here in the Achive lists. Post it with shading but no "adopt me" sign, then the artist will send me in a pm the same this but with no shading and the "adopt me" sign.

Example:
Post this:

Send me this:

Rules:
- No using the lineart for anything other then the contest
- You may draw males or females
- You may not edit the lineart (unless for horns)
- Do not copy existing FFD designs, or any other species designs. that's cheating!
- Do not complain if you don't win.
- Respect other contestants and their entries. If there is a problem, PM me.
- No claiming the species as your own.
- Have fun

Notes
You can be just a original artist or just a breeding artist, or just a DA artist, you cant be DA artist and original artist, but I will allow DA and breeding Artist, and Original and Breeding,

Prizes:

1st to 3rd place: A place as a artist and a custom FFD
4th and 5th: custom FFD

If I find a foal I like for the first pair for breeding artist it may get used as a actual foal and you will be given a custom FFD or something

I have a question... It says they can have any coat color but that they have specific patterns. I don't see any tobiano/overo or anything like that, so are they not allowed? I did see this tobiano for adoption, but I just wanted to be sure that none of my entries were wrong...
