5th annual coloring contest! &
Mini contest: Theme: My characters
UPDATES
For all rules, please check the rules and examples link at the top of the page. First set of rules are for the coloring contest, second set for the drawing contest
Coloring Contest:
This, the 5th year, I am trying something new. I have 4 sets of lines available for you to choose to color. You are allowed 2 entries, and you can choose the 2 you like most from the lines presented below. Instead of having category winners, I will judge all of the colorings together, with a grand prize winner and second and third place instead of a first for each set of lines. I hope you enjoy the change, if it turns out that the other way works better, I will go back to it again for the next year, so please leave feedback on that if you have any opinion. Thanks! And that beings said, lets get started!
Grand Prize Winner will receive:
*3 month subscription
*gift greeting or post card of your choice from my zazzle store at www.zazzle.com/azure_iolite/gi…
*line art commission from manic-goose
*and so much more.
to see all prizes for all winners, check the prizes link at the top of the page. If you would like to donate a prize, please go to the DONATION CENTER . Remember, the more prizes I get, the bigger the contest is.
It doesn't matter where you live, you can still enter and win. Your location will play no part whatsoever in my choice.
The pictures:
You can choose to color up to two of the following four images:
Coloring information can be found in the image descriptions.
You are not required to color them according to my descriptions, but they are available to anyone who wishes to be true to my character designs.
My Characters Contest:
You may remember my holding a poll to see if anyone was interested in a draw my characters contest, and since there was a lot of support there, I decided to go ahead with it, so this year, along with the coloring contest, I am holding a draw my characters contest. The premise is pretty simple, if you see the character in my gallery, you can draw this character for the contest. I prefer it if you draw my main characters, but really, I will be happy to see any of them. This gives you a lot of choices.

Time Line:
*Contests starts: August 16, 2010
*You made submit entries: August 15, 2010
*Last day to submit entries: January 3, 2011
*Popular Vote begins: January 3, 2011
*Popular Vote Ends: January 15, 2011
*Results Posted: January 17, 2011
*All prizes from me distributed no later than: February 5, 2011
I have the contest last this long so that everyone has a chance to enter, by including both some of summer break and Christmas break for those of you in school. Sorry to anyone who can't stand waiting, but I find this length works beautifully.
Judging and scoring
At the end of the contest, I will consult my judges to get their overall impressions, and their feelings about the pictures according to the criterion you can see by clicking on the scoring system link. Then I will be scoring each picture according to the same criterion, keeping the other judges' input in mind as I score them. Using a scoring system and multiple judges helps to make the judging as subjective as possible. When I am finished, I will post all the results so you can see how you did. This will help everyone to see where their strengths and weaknesses are in coloring and drawing, and I find that people generally appreciate that. The images with the most points will be the winners.
Questions:
If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, feel free to let me know and I will take it into consideration. Hope you all have fun with the contest, and thank you for joining in on the fun.

What's up!
Sorry about my inactivity lately. I have had a few major life changing events; one such change of special significance would be the birth of my first child. A boy named Remy.
If you message me, though I may not reply, I will read it. If you note me, I will reply, though it may not be right away. If you have a question about using my work, I will let you know here what my answer will be: as long as it is for a not-for-profit purpose, as long as I get credit, and as long as you message me about it, showing me how you intend to use it, I'm good with it. Color away! Tattoo away! You don't have to wait to hear back from me, as it may be a wh
Where have I been?
Some of you may have noticed my inactivity. Well I guess I owe you an update then.
First: I got an iPad, so I have been spending a lot of time figuring it out, and getting what I need for it so hat I can use it to do art and everything else I use my regular computer for, and also figuring out what it is and is not capable of. I have an amazing stylus for my iPad, called the sensu brush. This is a very promising thing. If I can figure everything out, i will be able to work on serious art whenever and wherever I want, and that would be amazing.
Second: I have two different major projects underway, both taking a lot of time an work, and ne

Honorable Mentions
so close it hurts
When I first saw this entry, it took me by surprise. The thumb looked like it may look good, but I didn't really see how great it was until I full viewed it. This entry is just charming, full of great details, and overall, a pleasing piece to look at. I love the waterfall, the detail in the fox's eyes, her freckles
It was so close to winning it hurt to have to choose. I think I spent an hour debating, and in the end, I deferred to my judges, and this one was eventually
reluctantly given up, but I feel I have to mention it here nonetheless. Special thanks to :devlillyfros
Coloring Contest: Voting part 2........Until16th
5 days for part two
How it works:
the popular vote serves two purposes. To determine the winner of the popular vote category, and to aid in the judging. The winner of the popular vote gets three extra points toward the voting score. Those that make it to part two of the popular vote get two extra points. Those that nearly make it to part two by scoring second for their category in part one get one extra point.
Part one is done. You can see the winners of part one by checking the poll. Second place for each category is http://who-died.deviantart.com/art/CE-Cyber-works-Coloring-317896043?q=favby%3
