Phoe's cute critter design contest! Any skill level accepted
I'm looking for you to design cute critters for me! ANY ideas are accepted- any drawing level and skill.
(though please note that colored pictures do look better than just simple line art!)
The rules:
They must not be 'realistic'. Use basic shapes, mainly circles and ovals (think chibi)
They must not be a 'real' animal. You can base it on a real animal, but I do prefer that these be original ideas
They can be any species! Bug, lizard, amphibian, arachnid, mammal, fish, you name it!
If your picture does not work by the time the contest ends it won't be judged. If I can't see if I can't judge it!
You are allowed as many entries as you'd like! Just please make sure they're all unique!
THE BIGGEST RULE: NO COPYING. Please have all your ideas be your own!
Contest ends September 25th, 2012 (about 3 months from this post)
(please note- these creatures will be turned into patterns and SOLD as patterns inspired by your work. I will give you credit in the sales in my shop, so if you'd like your real name instead of your username, please send me a PM after you've won a prize By entering this contest you agree that you're fine with me using your work to sell patterns with.
The patterns will be made in crochet- and in a style called 'amigurumi'.)
Winner's prizes:
The first prize winner has their creation turned into a REAL stuffed animal- and you get a free pattern on how to make it once it's done! (the pattern is a PDF file)
You also get a cute bunny, to stay in theme with the contest!
second prize winner has their creation turned into a REAL stuffed animal as well- and you also get a pattern.
Second prize creature is-
a cute puppy!
Third prize creature gets a pattern as well, and the creature is...
a cute little imp for your keep!
HAVE FUN! Remember, the cutest and most unique entry wins!
