Description
Hello! I would like to announce that I am holding my first ever contest!
Here's the deal: I have had a character named Peaps for way too long, and gave her, initially, a pretty obnoxious color set. A few years ago I decided to let my partner at the time redesign said character and... I just did not like it at all. I am very capable of redesigning Peaps myself, however I thought it might be fun to hold a coloring contest instead and see what creative things you might come up with!
How it works:
- I will be providing a link here below to the PSD file where I have gone ahead and blocked out the areas to color, which should be already opacity locked so all YOU have to do is add markings/ color away! I did this in the hopes that ANYONE, even those without a tablet might be able to easily complete the picture without much difficulty.
- I am not looking for high quality designs, and I will NOT be factoring them into my decision, at ALL. I will be looking at the design itself and how I may interpret it when I am coloring my own character. Do I like the colors? Will she be fun to draw? Does it fit the character? This is not a skill contest. It is a creativity contest.
- I will choose the design I like the best. Here's the rub. There's a good chance I won't actually want to KEEP the best design as Peaps' permanent design, but regardless whether I choose to do so or not, I will still choose a best in show who gets:
- One fully colored and shaded single character piece done by myself, with simple background.
- The only caveat is that by submitting an entry you accept you will not own or possess my Peaps in any way, shape or form should your colors be chosen. You may post what you've done on your own sights citing me as the creator and character owner. You will not own rights to her color design. Because it's colors yall. C'mon.
Interested Parties:
- Download the .psd file here: Google Drive
- Personality: Her personality is bubbly, lackadaisical, not very socially aware, but generally helpful and kind-hearted. She doesn't have a hateful bone in her body. She does , however, have an incredibly mischievous side and likes to jumpscare people. Her abilities are centered around being able to phase through walls/objects, rip holes in time-space for unlimited travel possibilities, and float. So.. as you can imagine numerous shenanigans can happen.
- Color inspirations: Peaps' should be colorful and bright. Neon glows/pops or non-natural markings are 100% okay to put on her. Her eyes should not have pupils and instead should be sort of soap bubble inspired. She could have some natural colors in her palette or absolutely NONE at all and either is FINE. Go buck wild. Here are a couple gliders I've made in the past (though she is the pinnacle of her species so she should be more unique).
