Winter Colored Art contest

[Agrias]

Welcome to the Winter Colored Art contest! ​

Apply here if you have a colored piece of your own artwork that you want to submit.

Spoiler: Old Info

Rules:

-Fanarts or original designs are allowed - but the artwork must be yours! If you're coloring a panel, head to the Coloring Contests.

-The contest doesn't have a specific theme! Feel free to draw anything you like, it doesn't have to be winter related.

-Linearts and/or tracing over a manga panel/any other original art are not allowed. We stress: the artwork must be yours.

-If the submission was done as a collaboration, please state the names of everyone who contributed on the description. Make sure everyone who's involved agrees into taking part of the contest!

- You can submit up to 3 artworks for this contest. Only your most voted entry will be taken in account for the results though - you won't be able to win at 1st, 2nd and 3rd places at once.

NEW! To apply, follow this instructions:

Submissions

Every contest entry must be posted in this thread. You can use Photoplog or choose any image hosting site to host your pictures. However, we advise you to use Photoplog, as image sites may delete or take down your artwork.

If you're using Photoplog, click here and select "Art Contest Submissions" as the upload category.

Post a clickable thumbnail of your picture in the thread, like this one:



Pictures posted directly in the thread, without thumbnails, will be deleted. This is to assure that the forum layout stays organized, without oversized pictures breaking the layout. Photoplog generates automatic forum codes for thumbnails, most image hosting sites do the same. If you need help, just ask us by PM.

The current submissions will be added to the 1st post. If yours isn't added right away, be a little patient. The voting will only start when all the submissions are shown on the first post.

Feel free to name your artwork! If it doesn't have a title, we'll refer to it by numbers (in case you submit more than one picture).

Voting will be done in a poll in this thread.

Contest Schedule

Submissions: January 24th to March 6th

Agrias.... Could I just give an advice for artists participating in future contests?

Please resize your pictures, because it will reflect badly on your contest piece if the viewer cannot see the full image. Few people will scroll 3 pages (random number) to see the whole thing. And imageshack smaller size previews just kill the lines and whatever quality you want to give.
Shrinking the size will hide mistakes like messy lines or color blots, AND it will make the final work appear more polished.

Unless you have mind boggling details and well crafted patterns, having a picture of 2000X2000 pixels will ruin your chances.

 

[foggyflute]

but my painting nowhere near something neat and polished, lol
thanks for advice, the yfrog browser resize is terrible, next time will be proper flickr ...
