BIG EDIT No.2:

There are some changes in the Prizes! Please check them out! One person decided to donate for the first places in the Artwork- & Photography section and another person is still in discussion about that with me, but she will probably donate prizes for the Photography & Writing Section!

BIG EDIT:

I just added the section "Photography" so... you can choose one of three sections and fives themes in each section now... have fun

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Return to Innocence Contest

Deadline ~ 31th December 2009

Once I asked in a poll if people would enter a contest, most voted for “It depends on the prizes” & “It depends on the theme”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What ist he Contest about?

There is the one big sentence that gives away the whole theme already, “Return to Innocence” is a contest where you can make your mind go wild, because there aren’t really things you couldn’t enter here.

The Contest will be split in three sections:

。 - Artwork Section
。 - Writing Section
。 - Photography Section

So if you can’t draw just go for the other sections, vice versa if you can’t write.

But please just enter one section, if you can do all three good, it’s okay, but lets keep it fair. You can send in 3 entries in one section.

And then again, the Sections are divided up in five themes.
That’s like the only real guidelines in this whole contest.

。 - Dream
。 - Family
。 - Friendship
。 - Childhood
。 - Memory

Having five themes doesn't mean you can enter in each theme 3 entries. 3 entries per person max, in one section and in the themes of your choice.
You can send 3 entries up for only one theme too if you wanna.
Like only the dream section, or send in 3 entries for three themes, or two entries in one theme and the last one in another.
I think you get what I mean, don't you?

So what do I want?

Anything according to the Sentence: "Return to innocence" in the five themes.. whatever comes to your mind when you link the sentence with dream, family, friendship, childhood or memory.
Really.
Be creative.
The main point of all this is that I want to see your imagination go wild and how creative you can become under those conditions.

Rules

(WS – Writer Section | AS – Artwork Section | PS - Photography Section)

Allowed

。 -3 entries max.

。 -WS: Poems, lyrics, or a fucking long story, whatever comes to your mind

。 -AS: Simple pictures with no backgrounds or simple backgrounds

。 -AS: Use any media you like for the pictures

Not Allowed

。 -Work from other people

。 -Mature stuff, because I don’t think it would fit the theme, but if you can explain how it would fit you may enter something like that too

。 -Don’t use any characters that aren’t your own! - Not any comic/anime/manga/ novel characters or OC’s from other artists! – BUT the big exception would be: If your character is anyhow related to another artists character like a parent, a sibling a child , a lover, best friend or anything like that and therefore necessary for the picture)

。 -AS: No bare lines or just a plain sketch (if you do the whole picture with a pencil for a certain effect like for Memory you think monochrome or sepia or something like that looks better - that’s okay)

How to enter?

If you want to enter, send your entry with a note to me, please DO NOT post a like with your entry here or elsewhere on my page. If I don’t give any response on the note within 24 hours, your note may have gone lost, then send it again please.

And please write in your artist comment which theme you have chosen for your entry, I mean I could guess but do me a favour and just write it down ^^

!!NOTA BENE!!

It would be awesome if you give us all a piece of your mind and write in your artist comment why you think that your work just fits the theme perfectly

Prizes

How will the prizes be dealt with?
!Each of the three sections will be judged for themselves!

So there will be a 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th place for each section! BUT the prizes may be different in some categories, since some people donate for just one or just two sections!!!

!All prices are drawn with copic markers - And I'll draw anything exepct for humanoid beings (!I can't draw humans faces!) or anime/manga/comic/novel characters just your OC's!

If any of you guys want to donate some prizes as well just tell me :3 Like.. a Subscription, your own art, or a story or something like that, I would be glad if people who don’t consider to enter would help me out with the prices :3

IMPORTANT: If you want to enter the contest, but still help me out with prizes: it is POSSIBLE!
If you enter the artwork section you can donate for the prizes of the other two sections, or if you enter the writing sections you can donate for the other two as well. I guess you get the idea ^^

Gosh D: I hope no one feels treated unfair because of the different prices D: But yeah... that's how it is... see this contest as not only one but three contests with the same theme; each section (artwork/writing/photographing) gets its own treatment and own prizes.

For now the only judge is just me
