Rules~
* All tess' rules apply.
* I keep the design if I choose you as a winner.
* No copying existing designs or other contestants entries.
* No messy or 5 min entries, HIGH QAULITY ONLY.
* lease try stick to my likes and dislikes, it will increase your chances of winning.

Likes and dislikes~

Likes.
Canine characters, unique canine breeds. Big fan of these,
however, I am open to other species (made up or hybrids etc).
Semi Complex designs, nothing too difficult, though if the
design is complex and I love it, that's fine ^^
Elemental characters
Armour
Items <3 Love these, unique items please.
Piercings
Scars (nothing major)
Indian themes (beautiful markings and patterns etc)
Feathers!!
soft neutral colours
natural designs with hints of un-natural
Long tails
Lots of fluff (nothing too cutesy though)
Weapons
Horns
Jewellery (nothing too girly please) . Things hanging from horns
are cool too.
Braided fur plaits

Dislikes.
Please don't include any of this in your design!
Sparkles, bright colours.
Messy designs.
Anything too gory
Anything too cutesy

Colours I like~
Of course, feel free to choose something else, as long as it isn't a dislike. I'm also a fan of natural dog coats (:

Side notes~
I will be more inclined to award first place to you if you enter more than one great design ^^
You can enter as much as you like.
I will only award the prizes when I find a design(s) that I truly love.
If there are other designs I love, I will buy them for rares/very rares.
You may keep your design if you do not win and I say it's ok ^^

I'd love to enter, but I can't use oekaki. Can I draw it on another program then post it here when I'm done? :3

So - just to make it clear - if we draw something on another program, then we just post the entry here?

Also:
When's the end date?
and are you looking for realistic or something more like a reference for future use?
May enter, I just don't think I'm "HIGH QUALITY" enough :b
