Drawing CONTEST (CLOSED)

The video above gives you a quick introduction to the rules of this contest. Written down below are further details. Please read them.

UPDATE: The deadline has been moved one month. The new end date is at the end of this journal!
There are some people how need more time, this contest just recently got a bit more exposure,
and I gave this contest only about two months from the beginning, which is not that much.
Therefore I decided to give it more time.

How to participate:

Draw something with the help of my tutorial videos and make it the main part of your drawing.
You can use more than one of my tutorials at once, and you are free to add whatever background and additional characters and other elements your want.

Here is the list of all the tutorials available for this contest. When you click on them, a link to the YouTube video will open:

   

   

   

   

   

 

Only videos from this list are usable for this contest!

Rules:

   It's required that you put a link to this journal entry and to the video(s) that you have used in your submission's description.
Also add this journal to your favorites.

  You can use every tutorial only once, and therefore theoretically you could submit up to 17 drawings, if in every drawing only one tutorial was used.

  Both traditional and digital drawing/painting tools are allowed. (My tutorials are made in a way that they can be used for any medium.)

  The basic structure has to be somewhat close to what I explained in the tutorial video, so I can tell that you have actually watched it.

  Reusing one of your drawings that you made before this contest is not allowed. Your submission must be new.

   It's not allowed to spam 1 minute drawings or other low effort works like that.

   Sexual, offensive, political, heavily violent and gore content will NOT be accepted.
 

Ways to win:

  Skill: I will choose 3-10 (depending on the total number of entries) impressive submissions and put them up for a voting here on deviantArt. This way place 1,2 and 3 will be decided.

  Creativity: I'm looking for the most exceptional ideas! Skill is not that important, therefore everybody has a chance to win! 
For this category I will be the only judge, because it's very subjective after all.

You don't have to choose between those categories. When you submit a drawing, it will be judged by both.
Everyone can win only once in the entire contest. If you would basically win multiple places, then the highest place of them will be awarded to you.

Prizes:

  Skill:  

1st place: 500  + 1 month feature on my deviantArt page
+ 1 colored headshot by RoseLuna
+1 full body figure by UnseenIvy 
+ 1 llama & 1 month journal feauture in AnotherContestGroup 
 
2nd place: 250  
3rd place: 150

Also ALL submissions will be featured in a journal entry at the end of this contest, with the winners big on the top of course.

UPDATE: If the total participant count stays below 15, the 2nd and 3rd places will be omitted!

                                      
If you have donations for the prize pool, like points, commissions, features or other things, then I would be mega thankful to you!  
Your donations will be added to the prize list above, together with your name.
It would greatly help me making this contest huge!

                                 

All of the submission will be collected in this folder: Contest Entries

This contest ends on:

>>> NOVEMBER 30th <<<

And if you think of submitting your drawing at end of the contest, because you suppose it will get noticed more than earlier submissions (because it's still fresh or something)...
... that doesn't work. No matter when you submit your contest entry, all of them will be judged equally!

By sharing this journal entry to your friends and other people who love to draw, you would help me get more participants, therefore making it all even more fun!

  I'm super excited for this!  

Alright then, have fun drawing!
