Judging have started, and will end on Saturday, May 5th.
Winner will be announced that day. Also, lottery winners will be called that day, and bumping prizes announced.



Welcome to my first Art Contest! I've been on Gaia for two years and a bit, and I must confess the only thing that keeps me attached to it is art! I'm an art whore, oh yesh.

- Follow the TOS. And you should know it domokun
- Enter only, ONLY your artwork. Don't be a thief! (if I catch one, will be disqualified)
- You can stay, chat and bump in the thread, but please, keep spam to the minimum.
- You can always PM me, but I tend to fill my inbox very quickly. Preferabily, PM my mule, Sexual Toy (yes, it's my mule, any problem?)
- This is a contest, so don't complain if you don't win. There are plenty of chances anyway!

(Well, Actually Never Never Asked, But Everybody's Found Asking Questions)

1. You are crazy.
Definitely. But that IS NOT a question.

2. Is there any entry fee?
Why should there be? Of course no.

3. You avatar is horrible. May I draw Lanzer instead?
Of course!! (though you won't receive any prize domokun ) No, seriously. I like creativity, and the options listed are mere suggestions. Feel free to change a little bit the outfits, or make it for you to feel comfortable drawing it.

4. Can I submit more than one pic?
Sure! The more the better. (Limit: 1,000,000,000,000 per person. I don't want to overflow my comp :whistle: )

5. So, can I win more than once?
If you submit different pics, those are elegible for the prizes, so you have more chances, one prize for pic. As I'd like to reward as many people as possible, you can only win one prize, BUT, if the judges and I consider your other works deserve a prize, too, you will be rewarded as well.

7. This FAQ made me drowzy. I still have a lot of doubts.
Any doubt, suggestion or comentary, feel free to post it on the thread, or PM it to me, but preferabily to my mule, Sexual Toy

8. What are you gonna do with our works!? gonk
=O Don't worry, I'm just gonna sell them in the black market collect them, in my private collection. You still have the rights of the art however, but I'll keep it for my own.

9. What kind of art may I submit?
This contest is a graphical art one. That means is for pics of all kind. However, if you feel like writing a story, singing something or making an sculpture ( :O ), you are absolutely free to do it, and I'll take it in consideration, and add a category if necessary.

10. Why isn't there a 6th question?
Because I didn't feel like donig it... ¬¬

11. =O I dun hav skillz. May I draw three lines in Paint?
Every pic is eligible. However, skill and creativity is valued here, yush! Although I find it difficult that three lines in Paint deserve the first overall prize, it could fit in the Funniest cathegory. And, besides, you win a ticket and a chance to win the lotto!!. Make some effort!

12. My friends say I draw like Picasso. Is that OK?
Picasso, anime, cartoon, realistic, sticky people... all kind of art is accepted, as long as it follows the rules.

13. I have two left hands.... but, hey! I found a pal who has the two right ones! May we partner up?
Sure! Collabs are fine, but the prize will be divided by the number of people. I will send

the prize to one of you (you should tell me when submitting the form), but it's your responsibility if you cannot thrust your partner.

14. I built a server just to host the pic!! D:
I'll consider all entries not marked as WIP as complete pieces, so I'll host them in my photobucket account. However, it'd be good for you to keep the picture, just in case (you know, terrorists could take over Photobucket)

15. You already have art from me! Does it count?
Sorry, if I commission you during the contest, or have commissioned you in the past, will not count as an entry for the contest. However, you are encouraged to submit a pic, and get a chance to win!

16. WIP?
Weep! Work in progress =]

This contest is an avatar art one. These are my favorite avatars:

As you see, there are many many combinations. Basically, these are the items to wear.

The basic ones:
Horns of the demon - Not too large, neither too short. Is just that Gaia doen't have a medium size gonk
Ice gauntlet - I really like this item, don't know why. You can chose to draw it as a gauntlet, as claws of ice, or as a frozen hand (like superpowers :O )
Blue glasses - Either HIPster or torque, or any other you like

Other items I like:
Winged anklets, OMG, Whip of ice, Shadow spirit, Dark halo (as halo and as tail), open shirts, Bone helm, Tin hat, Guitar of the demon, Demonbow, Officer's cap, Policeman uniform (don't ask), a lot more For if you haven't noticed, my favorite color is blue. Try to combine it with White/gray/black for different outfits.

Some time ago, when I was in preparatory and I had life time, I used to fish. Indeed, I like[d] fishing, so you could try a fish theme. Water is my favorite element.

Here are some of my favorite pics, for you to take a look. You can see are styles very different. I love all styles!

<Pending> In the middle time, you can check MY GALLERY

Mah friends

You can also draw CHubas with one of his friends. But CHubas still must be in the picture.

Because CHubas definitely is crazy.


Along the contest, I'll be giving a ticket per submission. At the end of the contest, I'll make a lotto with the number of entries, and the winners will get:

1st place (lotto) - Demonic Pitchfork
2nd place (lotto) - Coco kitty plushie
3rd place (lotto) - Momo the monkey.

As you see, there are plenty of opportunities!

Bumping is good, but, as everything, in excess is bad. So, I'll be giving away prizes for bumpers:

- To be considered, you may bump, but moderately. If you need the urge to bump the thread, you can stay and chat a little.
- AT the end of the contest, I'll chose the best(s) bumper(s) and give a prize, at my own discretion. Of course, the more you post here, the more chances you have.

Prizes:

Pixie
Sword of Aegis
More prizes as I add them

And as if that wasn't enough, I'll be giving more random prizes.
Generate a random number from 1 to 1,000, and if you are the first one to get a number on this list, you get the prize indicated:

760 - The Jack-et
693 - Paper Party Hat
252 - White Olympic Shirt
130 - Black Olympic Shirt
600 - Noise Maka
489 - Dried Grass Skirt
946 - Grunny Shirt
24 - Jacked Belt
863 - Easter Bunny Ears
8 - Easter Bunny Shirt (x 3)
