If you don't want to do the competition, simply just make your own character here:

I have decided to make a competition for a new character. Prizes are undecided at the moment but, will be decided shorty. Prizes will be given out to the 1st 2nd and 3rd place winners. Of course we will also have other awards like most creative etc.
I like crazy colors but nothing overkill. Nothing girly unless it is neon. Designs are cool, animal furs like leopard or tigers also. Floral and swirly designs are also in criteria.
If your character doesn't get in first place and you want to keep it for yourself, go right ahead but give me credit for the lines.
To change lines, go to the lines layer. To color, go to the color fur, nose, or eyes layer and do LOCK ALPHA!
