Deadline?
Starting from December 28th ending at
January 31st
BIG BOLD LETTERS cause you HAVE to remember. And I WILL pester the shit out of you throughout the month. Trust me, I know you think you have time and you can jack off until the last minute, I understand that feeling so well, which is why imma pester the living shit out of you all because you will not finish on time, I speak from experiences. If you need more time, I'll gladly give it but keep in mind in February, I'll be having another contest~
Anything else I need to know?
LOL yes. Lots. The scan I line arted is this: www.goodmanga.net/pokemon_adve…
Your job is to color it in, upload it and wait till the deadline for me to decide the winners~
Here is the link to the lineart: fav.me/d5pjefp
Download it and color it in.
You're reason doesn't matter, whether it's for experience, trying something new, boredom, in need of the points, getting out of your comfort zone, whatever your reason may be, just enter and have fun with it~
I picked this scan mainly because of the shading you have to do in this. Shading is hard for some people and this can help~ also if you want to add the leaves and fire in the background, you are allowed to do so. If you don't or can't then that's alright.
