...white chocolate is more of a cream, not really white. so the pink would work better with the ears ^^ and some cute white stockings.

@Amari
Really? Multiple categories is good.. gives people more chances to win.. But what else other than the mascot can one draw? nymphs are nice<3..and.. trees? O_o. umm.. okay not trees..

err..other nature like stuff ^^

@Melody
I wish I could help, but as you can see *points at gold* all my gold is for charity. maybe my main can help.. unless another goal is stuck in Fuyumi's head..

Hm. Maybe I will find some cute white stockings then.

Alright, no guidelines for it then, just represent the theme of earth day <3

And I think originality and design should be the main aspects of judging. We need something that people will be able to create their own thing from and their own idea. A stick figure won't really help with that. XD So we do need at the very least a basic design. I'm not going to go for something that is completely CG'd and pretty if it doesn't fit the theme we want.

Um I'm about to head out to Costco and some furniture stores. I will be home by 9 for sure since that is when the kiddos need to be in bed to not be cranky. XD Does 9 work for you?

@Envy
they're one of the cutest-and cheapest-item on here <3

@Melody
..yeah.. we might get a ton of earth planets though...sounds like homework.. fun homework, but yeah..

Nine works for me.. not sure if we're in the same time zone though.. lol.

Nine is fine with me. ^-^

I do agree with you that art does need to be part of it. We don't want people just writing out what they want it to look like either.

I'll try to come up with some basic rules/instructions/whatnot by nine.

No love: I am about to buy it now.

Actually, no I am waiting to buy it from the 50% store.

@Cami
Good luck.

@Envy
Cool ^^

Hmm..*sends gold in for 50% store* Yay, i'm going to make my first donation as a box today <3

That is cool!

Yay~ Glad to know everything is nearly set~ <3

Free range of ideas is good~ <3

Well, I came up with my Mascot.

I think it is cutish. I have to redraw it on
clear paper.

@Envy
hmm.. O_O" did you draw it on graph paper?

@Meave
*hugs*

Nolove: No I drew it on line paper.

I often don't draw things on anything but lined paper because I can just use it later on for paper.

...well..how do you make it perfect for regular paper than? *blinks in confusion*

What do you mean by perfect?

I can show you something I drew on line paper.





Regular Paper





Lined paper

*is confused*

Cool.. *blinks* so..you draw it on lined paper, then..copy it on regular paper?

Normally I draw it on lined paper and leave it on lined paper.

However, for this one I drew it on line and will redraw it on regular.

If I am lucky it will turn out better or close to how I drew it.

Oh I see.. I hope you do well then.. I usually draw better on line paper too..but then when I get it on regular paper..it doesn't look as pretty..

I have a program where if I try really hard I can get rid of the lines.

However, I am going to try this.

I have two versions of the mascot in mind.

Oh that's cool ^^

On where it is watering a tree and one where an evil guy is looking down on it.

Omgawsh she is coming out amazing! :shock:

...*blinks* what? *confusion and looks at whatever your looking at*

My mascot.

If I finish the picture early enough maybe I will try coloring it.

I forgot something. xDDD

Envy- I finished mine as well, including the coloring. I'm trying to decide wether or not to add a background or not. If I do,it's just going to be something simple like a single color or something along those lines.

Finished the drawing. Officially this time. xDDD

I am thinking about coloring, but if I do I probably will use a type of photoshop.

>.> wow the contest hasn't even started yet XD You guys are too cute. *huggles* I'm glad you like the idea (:

Or are you just in it for the slippers? :P
