Some of you might have figured this out already, others might not, But my epic plan is an Avian contest.
Also if you want to help make this even more epic, feel free to link to this in your journal.
Contest Guidelines
#1 Rule: Allowed Avians ONLY, Don't make your own Avian for this contest, or you will be disqualified (It removes the point of the prize duh)
#2 Rule: Nothing pornographic please
#3 Rule: No fighting or flaming... for obvious reasons.The contest will be judged based on a few Criteria:
1: Anatomy: The artist's attention to Avian traits and anatomy.
2: Style: The ability to draw more then a carbon copy of the refs.
3: Action: Standard standing pose is boring, lets spice it up some.
4: Colour: Seeing how well the artist applies colour theory. (Not needed, but it always helps)
5: Background: Yes I know Avians look cool just floating there, but lets put the characters somewhere. (Not needed, but helps)
6: Emotion: Avians have feelings too
7: Story: Write a little knowledge into what is happening to complete the image, and bring the viewer into the moment. (Story blurb)

If you would like to Donate some awesome prizes for the contest, let me know!Q and A
When is the deadline?
~In a month, aka May 15th 2009
Can I draw more then one Avian?
~Yes, if it is to your liking you could draw all of them in one image oO
Can I make more then one entry?
~Yes, but remember, quality over quantity
Can I include one of my characters?
~Yes, but remember that it would be AU (alternate universe) and thusly removes some of the canon of the image.
Can I know more then what is posted on the character sheets about the characters?
~Yes totally, First place to look is other images of said character. If that is not enough, then try noting the owner of said Avian and asking them.
How do I hand in my submission?
~I thought that there would be a couple days before I would have to think about this, but for now leave a link in this journal, and when I post the Entries journal, post a link in the journal there.
I Can't draw scales but I want to enter, What do I do?
~Just because a bunch of friends and I are experimenting with drawing scales, doesn't mean you have to draw them.
Can I draw the human form of the Avian character?
~Sure, as long as you can find reference, if you want to design a human form for one of the avians, please ask their owners about it.
Will you judge me differently if I choose to do my entry in either Traditional/Digital.
~I won't judge people on the mediums they choose to do their entries in, all mediums are allowed ^^
