Hey there! Its been two years since I've updated my journal, mwhaha!
But i am back, and i have brought a bunch of new stock pictures with me. They are, as always - dark, fantasy-ish, gothic... all as we like it, guys
The autumn is here, and that means that the time has come to get ready to one of the most funny, epic and scary holidays of the year, yay
THIS IS HALLOWEEN!
And thats what i am going to devote my new small contest to!
Soon i will present you a new stock series full of witches, pumpkins and black kitties (example is in my gallery) which the participants can use to enter the contest.
The prizes are:
1st place
One month dA subscription or 400 dA points (the winner choses) Exclusive stock pack by REQUEST - you choose the topic An Interview with the winner and a showcase of his best works on dA A feature with some parts of your interview with links to your gallery on my web-portfolio pages A publication in a magazine (if wanted by the winner) 2d place 50 dA points A feature in my journal

[more prizes to come]
Using my model stock is required. No guts-gore-hardcore, its a holiday, not a horror. You may add some bloody stuff if you want, but you must know where it is okay, and where it becames TOO much. You may use any other stock pictures for backgrounds, details. You may use any filters, actions, brushes, change any colors, shapes do all that stuff that would fit your art, and make it even more awesome!

25 dA points A feature in my journal [more prizes to come] i am working on some more interesting stuff for the winners, but it is not time yet to announce that 
All works from the contest will be featured in a journal entry and a special folder.
If you would love to support the idea by donating more prizes (stock, dedications, icons or stamps, or ANYTHING you can think of) - please drop me a note! I would be grateful! 
Still keep in mind that it is just a fun contest, not a massive competition (which is also coming soon) - so we mostly give small pleasant prizes, not some O.M.G. stuff yet
So what are the rules?
Keep it to the topic - Helloween. This is not just another 'gothic' contest. Here we have a holiday, so we need pumpkins, potions, witches, costumes, masquerade, autumn, bats and all like that.

Digital and traditional drawings and paintings are also appreciated - just using my stock as reference. Your drawings can be anything from semi-realism to anime, and from impressionism to abstraction, from cartoon to whatever your imagination takes you If you're able to make a retouch which would be awesome enough to compete with photomanipulations - go ahead. Absolutely NO LIMITS on the type of art. No entry limits. Its a competition of artworks, so if you're goings to do 3-5 artworks in totally different styles - why not? In artists comments you should state that this artwork is a participant of my contest with a link to this journal! For this contest i have prepared a special stock pack, but you may use other my stock pictures as well. The main thing is to keep up to the topic.Deadlines?
Contest starts today and goes on till Monday 23.10.13. Then we hold a poll to find out the winner. The result is announced on Saturday, 28.10.13.
