EDIT---

Just letting everyone know, that I've updated some of the the reference pictures, so if there were some couplings you wanted to check out, please do!

--------------------

First, a little news... I SOLD A PIECE OF ART AT THE GALLERY I WAS A PART OF ON THE 7TH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zoh mah gawd, this means I win at art, right?! lol!

Second... A contest! You know! In celebration of my innate AWESOMENESS. ... also, because I'm a skank and want you guys to draw me stuff.

It looks as though this just might become a yearly thing. SO! Here we go!



Ok! So, it's been decided! I'm going to hold another contest. Because I am a whore who must be paid attention to.

Again, this will be "fanart" for my original characters, who usually either belong to ~itainohime or myself. Fiction will also be MORE than acceptable.

The deadline is going to be TUESDAY, JULY THE ELEVENTH, AT MIDNIGHT. I will not be changing this, as it will give everyone who wishes to enter about three months to do so.

So far, the pairings I've decided upon being central are:

Girls

Ceelia and Vae* (Two chicky human knights.)

Sparrow* and Nightingale (A pair of silver elf magic workers)

OK! So, there you go! I shall be posting more on these in the week to come. Now, for the rules of the contest…

1) You can pick any one of the pairings above. That is WAY cool. You may also sift through my gallery and pick out two people, should you so choose. (As long as they belong to me… otherwise, it’s not really the contest I want)

2) …OR, you may pair any of the above of throughout my gallery with one of your own characters, should you so choose. Be warned, however, that with a pairing with your own original character, that I may get just a bit touchy.

3) The deadline is July the 11th at midnight. Any entries submitted afterwards will not be disregarded, but will most likely piss me off for their lateness and not win. Final decisions come July 13th.

4) Be tasteful, please… I don’t want anyone getting banned over this, plus, I want to be able to hang the printed version of it on my "Wall-o-Art" in my living room, and my parents tend to visit from time to time. If you feel the need to do anything pornographic, just understand that I take no responsibility for the consequences if you post it here.

5) Be creative! Take liberty with the idea, be cute, use a different style, mess around, go freehand, whatever! I love all kinds of art in all different styles and tones of emotion. Please, feel free to wow me, make me laugh, make me cry or make me just out-and-out love you for any damn old reason.
