The host closes the DTA at a certain point and decides the winning entry/entries! There are usually prizes for second place and honourable mentions too ^w^ As I'm not one for long speeches, just thank you so, so much for 50+, and without further ado, onto the rules! |❈| RULES |❈| 1. Entry must be a remix of this project, please! ^w^ 2. You may change gender [as there are none specified], except maybe for design 1 [see notes and credits] 3. Please stick to the original design as much as possible, I would prefer if there were no extra accessories added or pattern changes [with an exception for design 1 again xD; notes and credits] 4. In relation, please stick with the provided species of felis catus ;w;; Anthros are great, and I'm fine with humans, but otherwise please don't change it 5. Write a bio and a backstory if you have time! As a writer, I love learning more about how you interpret the character ^w^ also I loveee detailed backstories <3 6. Anyone can enter! This DTA is not limited to certain people, so I would really appreciate it if you would enter! 7. As a must, be kind to other entries and don't say things like "Oh, your entry is so much better than mine" or "This is definitely going to win!" From my own experience, it makes the person feel uncomfortable; also if you beat yourself up about your own entry i wiLL cOME aFTER yOU 8. I would appreciate if you tell me you're entering, say it in a comment below ^w^ [also with which design(s)] 9. Codeword is 'golden curry', hide it in your comment >:3 10. I will judge equally on both on art and writing [if you choose to write a bio/backstory!] so don't lose hope if you consider yourself unproficient in drawing ;3 11. DTAs have always been a source of inspiration for me, so have fun and think outside the box ;3 Also, you may enter for more than one design but only win one ^w^ I think I forgot to mention that xD |❈| PRIZES |❈| First place for each with keep the design, and everyone who enters gets a design request [if they want one] after they enter as a thank you >w< yep my prizes are lame, I'm sarreh ;0; aa I'm sorry I can't offer follows; I don't follow on request |❈| CLOSING DATE |❈| Officially March 30! Notices will go up and extensions will be given for those who ask, no more entries will be accepted after one week (I'm giving y'all spring break to finish ;w; or at least @-Sonder ;w;) |❈| ACKNOWLEDGMENTS |❈| - @-Sonder - Thank you for being a true friend, and being a light in the darkness <3 - @crazycatstudios [@--Skyfeather--] - Thank you for supporting me since we first met; I wish you light down the path of art [and good luck with the braces!] - @Cinnamon-Skies/Cinna-pai -Thank you for being an awesome senpai :>, keep on arting!
// ignore the old and outdated lineart ;w;; // |❈| DESIGNS [they're a bit complex whoops] |❈| 1. Silence of the Thawing Birch 1.5. Second version of Silence with simplified hair design that looks such as nice ^w^ [they both count as the same character though, you may draw either hair design] 2. Song of the Mountain River 3. Whisper of the Summer Breeze ↑ ❈ These are just prompts, but you may change them, and feel free to use these as names ^w^ ❈ |❈| NOTES ON DESIGNS |❈| ❈ Silence of the Thawing Birch ~ silver white winters that melt into springs ~ - The 'birch' was inspired by the stripes on her forelegs as well as the branch-like stripes on the back and tail ^w^ - I always imagined her playing a violin but had no space to draw it; feel free to put that in your entry <3 - Tip: to bring out the blue in her eyes, add some ribbons/jewelry, this is probably the only design I'll allow extra accesories on =3 - Her hair can be put in many styles, I'm fine with that too ❈ Song of the Mountain River ~ to laugh like a brook that trips and falls, over stones on its way ~ - The fur pattern is supposed to represent a river, with the dapples being shimmers on the water =3 - The harp drawn to the left is optional, but I would love to see it drawn with the character <3 - Fun fact: This is probably the most simplistic of all the designs, but it has the largest palette x3 ❈ Whisper of the Summer Breeze ~ there's a lasting effect to the words that we say ~ - This is the proclaimed 'twin' of Echo of the Flowering Wood xDD but I screwed up on the design so bad I won't be surprised if no one enters for it x'33 - Okay, nothing much else to say about this design, except that I was dead by the time I started on this :"> designing is not an easy process okay |❈| GENERAL NOTES |❈| - All of these designs' gender are set at a default female, but feel free to change that [probably more likely with designs 2 and 3, as design 1 has a braid/hair x3] - I got really attached to all these designs while making them ;w;; so I'm going to be a hard judger! >:3 - U hh I might enter for my own DTA so watch out ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |❈| CREDITS |❈| Music - Say Something Instrumental Character in thumbnail is Echo of the Flowering Wood she's not up for adoption sadly; I stoled her >:33
