Hello, and welcome!
Back in March, I decided to save up some points, and host my first art contest.
Down to the main point: I like seeing Deimos in other people's execution, and I'd love to see your take on him!

However, first things first: what can you win?
Note: Money prizes have been increased, but the upgrade will be unlocked at 10 entries. Thank you for your interest!

Prize donations are encouraged! If you want to donate prizes, no matter what they are, please contact me, and I'll add you! I'll be eternally grateful.

Types of art accepted:
Traditional
Digital [Pixel is OK]
Animations
Anything else that isn't literature / traced / made using a base or dollmaker.

Restrictions:
No fetish art. Nothing explicit. If you choose to draw fanservice/something questionable, make sure it's in-character. Ask me if unsure
Draw Deimos only - entries with other characters or OCs, no matter whose, will not be considered!
Violence / gore / disturbing content is OK.
Alternative outfits are not allowed
No sketches or incomplete pieces. Black and white pieces are accepted and treated equally to coloured ones
Multiple entries are allowed, but you can only win once
If you are submitting a traditional entry, make sure you take a high-quality photo or scan the drawing. Drawings on lined paper are automatically rejected.
Very cartoony and overly minimalistic styles are not allowed! Ask if unsure.
A simplified outfit / an outfit with details deliberately omitted or altered counts as an alternative outfit, and is thus not allowed. Exceptions can be made for pixel art.

Judging will happen on a point-based system.
The judges will be: Erediell [me] and Buritsu.
Each judge can give each entry up to 110 points, for a maximum total of 220. The 8 top scoring entries will receive prizes.
To qualify, an entry must have at least 1 point in each category. If we collectively feel that an entry will have a 0 in one of the sections, it will be rejected.

Here's the distribution, for reference:

Accuracy [Design] - 20 points
Did you pay attention to details and colour? Did you consider trivia where relevant?
Loyalty to the character - 20 points
Is this a situation he would end up in? Is this something he would do? Does this fit with his backstory?
Neatness - 20 points
Does the piece look polished, or rushed?
Style - 10 points
Does the style fit the OC and/or the theme you are drawing?
Composition - 10 points
How balanced is the piece? Is it interesting from a design point of view?
Effort - 30 points
Did you make use of his information? Did you put thought into the idea? Does the piece have a meaning behind it?

 I will not comment much on the entries during the contest. 
 However, once the contest is over, I will come back to each entry, and give an in-depth comment, as well as the score.
