hello members of wings-lovers!
i think it is time to announce the last contest of our group for the year: a rare triple item contest! ^^ It's going to be the first time for me to do this; you can think of it as an MBG contest in Colorfull Wallies, and i'm not sure if it'll be successful, but let's try. ^^
This contest is divided into three sections - a wallpaper contest, doujinshi contest, and banner contest. Each of the sections listed above will be valid for voting if they have at least two entries. For example, in the doujinshi section, if there's only one entry on the deadline, the section will be removed. :(
Member rules:
- The contest is open for all staff and members of Wings-Lovers, except the winners of the previous contest.
This is to give opportunity for others to get the title. Those members that are banned from the contest are me (BlueAngel17), onestepclosertonumb, CaMiLi and PinkPrincessLacus. We instead, are going to be judges in this contest.
- A member can submit 2 entries for the whole contest, - 1 entry for 1 section only. For example, Member 1 can submit an entry to the doujinshi section and the wallpaper section but cannot submit anymore to the banner section. But if Member 1 choose to submit only one entry for the contest, it's still ok. The maximum is two entries.
- Collaborations on an artwork are allowed but adding a "poem" to the description of the artwork is not allowed. It must be reflected on the artwork itself.
General design rules:
- The theme title is HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!: it does not have to be always
confined to a santa costume, but is still ok. Hint Suggestion: for Christians,
the theme can be a traditional "Christ in the manger with angels" theme or any Christmas activities like
carolling, mistletoes, etc.
- The content must show liveliness and happiness for the season of Christmas
- For our difficulty challenge: NO COLOR OF RED AND ANY SHADES OF RED! you can use orange, pink or yellow, but colors of ROSE RED, DARK RED, BLOODY RED are not allowed. yeah, i'm taking away the major color for Christmas.. well, i've seen Christmas trees decorated with a lavander and white theme.. be challenged!
- Must contain at least a character WITH WINGS (any type). The more characters, the merrier. ^^
Wallpaper details:
- Must be displayed in Minitokyo before entering in the contest.
- Must be not more than 4 weeks old.
Doujinshi details:
- Must be displayed in Minitokyo before entering in the contest.

- Can be colored or not, as long as the non-colored art has visible shading that
covers 50% of the drawing. an example of art that isn't accepted is Redemption by Sagnarn (because shading hasn't reached 50% and
shading cannot be distinguished at the sight of the thumbnail) and types that is 50% shaded is Orphan Angel by gel-chan
Banner detials:

Noble Scarlet (most improved picks)
that will be scattered on the wallpaper and doujinshi sections if there's a lot of entries.
