I would like to update you on the Original Characters contest I'm hosting at the moment.
You can read the rules and details about this contest here if you haven't and are interested:
OC Contest!! - 1 WEEK LEFT! ONLY ONE WEEK LEFT TO PARTICIPATE
We've already received many wonderful entries to the contest, and judging is going to be fun and challenging, but since there's still one week before the contest ends, I'd like to remind you that you only have until the end of the year to submit your entry (December 31th 2015 00:00 AM GMT+1).
I hope many more people will want to participate!

I just reached 6000 watchers! Thank you very much for bearing with me, for following my meagers attempt at making art and for all the kind support, faves, comments and watches!
It's quite the achievement for this page, so I would like to celebrate it by hosting a contest.
The contest is for digital and traditional art only, and there will be several prizes.
I'd like to ask you to kindly read the whole journal for all the info about the contest, and if it's not too much to ask, could you please add this journal to your favorites (even if you're not sure wether

I am glad to announce that I've started receiving some quite awesome artwork for this contest, and I'd like to thank these early birds and show you their entries! So without further ado, let me present you:

It's great that 3 out of 4 main OCs have received at least one picture at such an early stage! Thank you all!
I am going to update this journal as soon as new entries arrive. I know more are coming and I've seen some pretty promising works in progress so I can't wait to feature the finished pictures in this journal!
For those of you who wish to participate, I remind you that you have until December 31 to submit your entry and you can read more about the contest in the first link of this journal
