Hi and welcome to the first Bamboo Babies Art Contest! I love art, I mean who doesn't? So I decided to place a special event that would demonstrate other peoples abilities and their love for Bamboo Babies.

Congratulations MiniCorn_Scientist!

Better late than never.
I'm sorry it took so long to update this. I'm not sure when, but I'll do my best to try and send the prizes as soon as I'm done with the finals and get my hands on any computer with Internet connection.

We all know the Bamboo Babies right? They can be found here if you don't remember them all. You can even draw some of the one's that were previously sold if you want, as long as it's a Bamboo Baby. What should they be doing? They could be playing at the park, helping Madisson out in the pet shop garden, making a mess in the kitchen. Anything you want really, just use your imagination.

Categories
  • Pixel Art: Pixel art is art created on the computer through the use of raster graphics software that allows images to be edited on the pixel level. Graphics in most old computer games or even in Game Boy games are considered pixel art. If you decide to use a base please post the base and the name of it's creator.

  • Traditional Art: This will have three sub categories.
    • Pencil Drawing: A entry made entirely by pencil.
    • Inked: A entry that is usually inked with markers or pens. These entries are usually black and white.
    • Traditional Media: Entries that are colored with watercolors, markers, colored pencils, acrilycs, oil pastels, and many other items used to color.

  • CG: CG means either computer graphics or computer-generated art work.

Other characters
You can add these to your entry if you'd like. Adding them wont increase your chances of winning.

User ImageMadisson
The Pet Shop owner. She's the one that takes care of the pets before they get adopted. She has red eyes and red short hair, two dark red streaks of hair right above her ears. She usually wears a short white T-shirt, big baggy green pants with big black boots.

Addie
Is usually seen near Madisson. Addie is the shops mascot, the first Bamboo Baby and the only talking fox in the pet shop. He tries to help around as much as he can by trying to help the other pets feel right at home. Addie doesn't really look like regular foxes should. His feet, ears and tail are the regular reddish fox color, his body is a kind of peach color and he has red hair on his head and also has red eyes.
