@ValerieMilanese

I've decided to make my twitter useful and sort of showcase my art and other artists. I am also giving drawing advice if you tweet me questions. You will see unfinished, raw sketches and even get tips from me. I don't consider myself an expert but I have a good eye for drawing. Hooray for learning!

Even though there were less than ten entries, it was still difficult to decide the winners. I have finally come to a decision, and here they are.

:star::bulletyellow::star:FIRST PLACE- EmiVarga-xxemikexx.deviantart.com/art/I…
:star::bulletpurple::star: SECOND PLACE- vanlau- vanlau.deviantart.com/art/wint…
:star::bulletpink::star: THIRD PLACE- LeelooKido-leelookido.deviantart.com/art/…

:star:HONORABLE MENTION:star:- dagwoodindustries.deviantart.c…
I really love how dagwoodindustries took my character and put her into such a real invironment. I enjoyed how dagwoodindustries expressed Winters love for snow and her sisters. Great job! As a gift, I am sending you 400 points. Please give me time to get the prizes together. Thanks! =]


The winners portrayed the characteristics and personality of my character, in their own style. I am really impressed with these entries and the work that was put into them. Thanks to everyone who entered. Winners, you will recieve your subscriptions soon. If you want your subscription prize exchanged for 400 points instead, please contact me.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The contest begins.... Now!

Draw, write or use any medium to portray Winter(my character) having fun in the snow. I thought it was appropriate as Winter is coming soon. You may draw her with her sisters or even her boyfriend, as long as Winter is the main subject of the work. Study the characters you choose, because most of the judging will depend on how well the characters(especially Winter) are depicted. Judging also looks for technique, and execution.

You will find information and drawings of Winter in my gallery, under the folder labeled "Four Seasons Why I Love You". More will be posted soon, so don't be too hasty to start. (Making a montage of all the best Winter pics I have. Plus a description).

:star:**Edit**:star:
Here is a collection of Winter drawings and information all together. This should make your life a  little easier.
tokiohotel-meow12.deviantart.c…

For anyone who is using literature as your medium, there is a description in the artists comment on the drawing linked above. It has bits of my story and characters that should help you.

Not many rules:

- Drawing or written work has to be new, starting today.
- Submit as many as you like.
- You should not only depict my character and her personality, but your art style as well.
- Have fun.


:bulletpink:Prize:
First, second, and third get a 3 month subscription. Not much, but I am working on prizes from my last Contest. Donate if you like. Donators may still enter.(If you choose, I can give you 400 points instead of the 3 month subscription).

:bulletpink:Judging:
Judging will be done by me; who knows my characters better than myself.

Just a reminder on how they were judged:

1) likeness and recognition to the candy. 2) Difficulty of the piece. 3) Developement of the character. Such as personality and how much thought was put into the design and such. 4) Overall appearance. Is it pleasing to the eye, altogether neat and well executed.

Don't worry guys, I haven't forgotten the contest. Judging is intense, and the entries are amazing!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JUDGING HAS BEGUN: If for some reason you are not listed as an entry in this contest and you entered, please tell me.


I really didn't want to do this but I have to extend the contest. I have two drawing finals due and it's all I do ALL day! It will end when my classes end. I felt it was necessary  to do this so I could judge the pieces properly. I want to take my time to pick the winners and have a discussion with the other judges, but as of now it is impossible. So keep the entries coming in until the 15th of May, then judging will begin.  Thank you!

[Star!] :iconpink-rplz::iconpink-uplz::iconpink-lplz::iconpink-eplz::iconpink-splz: [Star!]

Pick your favorite candy(It doesn't have to be your favorite) and design an original character based on it. Use the colors and design of the candy itself and even the label. Be as fun and creative as you want. It can be chocolate candy, or sour candy. Whatever you want to use. One candy per character please, but you can create as many characters as you want. You can also enter as many times as you want.

Frequently asked questions:

Q: Does it have to be colored?
A: It's not required but I suggest you color it. You will have a better chance of placing, especially if you choose a colorful candy.

Q: Does the character have to be human?
A: No. I already have entries of canine and dragon creatures. You can even do a candy robot or fish if you want. The only requirement is it has to be a living creature-thing. It has to be capable of movement. No candy trees please.

HAVE FUN!!!

Oh, and if you could spread the word about my contest even if you don't enter that would be greatly appreciated. :iconblush--plz:
