-No lineart, commissions or entering old images.

Classes



Colour Challenge
This class is how well an artist can handle colours, and use them to their advantage. It also includes creativity and problem solving. To enter, you will need to register your horse below (a simple link will do) and there is a reason for this. Every entrant will be assigned a link to colour pallets, so if i know the horses colour, i can assign pallete easier. You can pick any pallete to use, however you must stick to only those colours. You can shade, and use greyscale freely (black, greys and white), however, every other colour must come from the pallete, or you will be marked down.
Our of the 3-5 you are given you must selected only 1. From there you may use the colours in whatever way you want. Your horse can be in any place for this reason. In the snow, or a forest, or flying in the sky.
If you are unforunatly not give palletes with your horses colour, you can add it, but try adjust the colour to suit the pic.

Regular class: 4-6 Colour pallets to choose from.
Advanced: A single pallete to use.

Note: If you don't say which class you are entering you will automatically be placed in regular.



Fragment Challenge
The fragment challenge focuses more on problem solving, and being creative in a new way. For this, each entrant will be given a word, and statement which they have to show through the image. For example, they may get 'Winter' as their word, so you may draw the horse in snow, with icicles all around. However, there are less obvious ones out their, that will be hard to demonstrate. These will be saved for the advanced Fragment challenge.
To enter this event, you only need to state how many horses you with to enter (each horse can only be entered once). You will be assigned a different word for each horse, which horse you assign them to is up to you.
The word must be placed in the description of the entry. It is not allowed to be put in the picture itself.

Regular class: Simple, easy words.
Advanced: A harder, more difficult word to demonstrate.

Note: If you don't say which class you are entering you will automatically be placed in regular.
