THAT'S MY GIRL CONTEST!
THE DEADLINE OF THE CONTEST HAS BEEN PUSHED BACK UNTIL 40 ENTRANTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED. IF YOU WOULD LIKE FOR THE CONTEST TO END SOONER, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ADVERTISE TO OTHERS ITS EXISTANCE.
DEADLINE: End OF 2012 May
Hello! I am holding a contest for a friend of mine as birthday wishes to him! I would like to have the contest end at the original deadline in order to present him with the gifts for his birthday but I do reserve the right to postpone the contest for whatever reason including if many people ask for me to do so.
So! The point of the contest is to draw one of my 5 girl OC characters. I am holding this contest also because there were many people who wanted to enter in to the last contest of mine and were unable to because they felt like they could only draw girls or one character.
The rules are simple:
You can draw any of the 5 girls described below in any way you want! There are suggestions in each of the descriptions because personality/character obviously plays a part in this but you are free to do what you desire, just try to match the personalities! Example: If you want to draw Kiriko as an astronaut go ahead but you are less likely to win because she IS NOT a astronaut.
You may draw one or more of the girls. It is up to you.
HAVE FUN WITH IT
None of my characters wear the same clothes every day! You are welcome to design their outfits to match their personalities!
Feel free to ask questions! Better likeness = better chance to win! Also feel free to use the possibilities I suggest for each girl! Do not feel hesitant about using something I suggest or to tell me what you'd like to do! If I suggest it or get excited for your idea, it probably means I like it more, which once again = better chance of winning!!!
Nudity is fine, dirty is fine, but NO actual sex. (This shouldn't be a problem since none of the girls are homosexual in the first place.)
JUDGING WILL BE BASED ON:
Correct body type and personality
Quality
EXTRA POINTS MAY BE AWARDED FOR MORE GIRLS IN ONE PICTURE, ORIGINALITY OR IF THE BIRTHDAY BOY HIMSELF HAS A PICTURE HE PREFERS.
Main story points:Takes place in modern day society. Mitose, Natsuyo Miyuki and Ritsuko all belong to the same high school. Kiriko is older than them. The actual story focuses mostly on Mitose and her bandmates as the story is about their band, げのげ. The story is titled after their band. As this story takes place in modern society, they wear different clothing every day, please feel free to design the clothing. I will only suggest colors. If you have ANY questions about setting, character, clothing, etc. please ask! I would love to answer them! When I state flower in the character description it is because that is the flower that represents them in figurative art (not their favorite flower or anything like that! XD)

i10.photobucket.com/albums/a13…i10.photobucket.com/albums/a13…Keep in mind that there are so many options as to what you can do! I love very figurative and artistic interpretations of these girls as well! This is why I suggest the nationalities, flowers, colors etc. Do not feel bound by typical anime cell-shaded art. For example: feel free to draw anime nouveau style Kiriko in traditional Chinese clothing. What I mean to say is feel free to use any of the background information I've given you about the girls to do something stylized or something story like! It's completely up to you! Feel free to draw any # of them being cutesy, flirty, flaunty, pretty, sexy, etc. or something rather more artistic! It is all up to you!

If you are really in need of cash instead of the membership prizes, PLEASE talk to me; if you win, I may work out with you the receiving of $$$ instead of

I reserve the right to move prizes between the placings in case I feel that one prize has way more than the others! (The total money in the contest can only be increased!) Example: 1st place has $100 and 15 art pieces from prize donators but 2nd place only has $50. I may move some of the donated art to the second place if I so choose because of how uneven the situation is. If I get many many entries, I may split up the prizes in to greater amounts with a 1st place for each girl or possibly add placements on top of 1st, 2nd and 3rd like Best Kiriko, Best Ritsuko, etc. I also reserve the right to change the Prize Placings. (I.e. add honourable mentions, convert overall first place to Best _____, etc.)
I also reserve the right to post the entries to a folder in my gallery or in the gallery of a specially created account for the duration of the contest in order for people to more easily be able to access and see the other entries. I also reserve the right to use all entered art for my own personal use (printing it on a card for the birthday boy, etc.). In so, it is required that you either do NOT watermark your entry or that you send me a non-watermarked version. I am NOT here to get free art from you! I am holding an honest contest, I just want to be assured that I will not be attacked later for printing this for my own personal use (NOT TO MAKE ANY $$!). Feel free to contact any of my past contest's winners for assurance that this contest isn't rigged, (that they got their money from me before!!!!)
Please feel free to spread word about the contest! The more entries, the better the prizes will become! Also, feel free to donate ANY prize to the contest! (You can still enter if you donate a prize!) Judging will be done by myself, the birthday boy and someone else on Deviantart but I will refrain from mentioning them in order to make sure they don't get badgered by anyone. XD
If you have questions, please ask!
DISCLAIMER: Not all of the references here were made by myself. Many were done via commission request or art trade from other artists! I am not claiming these works as my own at all!
ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: I have had help writing this contest description.
Entries may be found in the That's My Girl Contest Entries Section of my Favorites.
UPDATE (FEB):
I feel that maybe it is better to split the prizes in to smaller prizes but more of them in order to maybe do something like Best Kiriko, Ritsuko, etc. How does everyone feel about this? I understand that there may not be a 100% consensus but I want to insure that people in general are okay with this before I may do it. I do not want you all to feel as if you have been cheated. If you do have a comment for my question, please do respond so. (:
