The contest is still open for contestants to join and I have decided the deadline for all deviation entries to be January 4th, subject to change if more time is required (Let me know if you'd like more time to work on your entry x3 ) Thank you to those who are competing!! PLEASE DON'T ABANDON THE CONTEST WITHOUT LETTING ME KNOW YOU DON'T WANT TO TAKE PART ANYMORE... please, I'd really rather you tell me than just leaving unexpectedly... thank you for understanding ;w;  

LOOK AT BOTTOM OF PAGE TO SEE CHARACTERS YOU CAN DRAW


Hello guys and gals! I've been pondering this for quite some time now and well, since I do not contribute with any art of my own to DA, I'd thought I'd contribute in another type of way to really show my appreciation and love for this wonderful community! I'm thinking a real, big money prize with a core membership alongside it, you'll need a PayPal account for this or I can give it to you in Deviantart points instead!

Okay so I'd like the contest to be based around the best drawings of Nova, Liara and their family! Check out my collection to get a better view of these characters, I have a few uploaded to my gallery as well! We have Nova, Liara... their cubs; Thiago, Maya and Dawn... Nova's parents; Alika and Mwenye... Nova's Brother's; Tian, Akili and Makosa! Just to be clear, you can only submit one deviation. You can draw one character, two of them or even more if you want, its up to you who you want to draw for the deviation! Entries can be either traditional or digital art, it's entirely up to the contestant!

I figured out what I'd like the prizes to be, as well for the runners up at 2nd, 3rd and 4th place

1st place will get; $50, €50 or £50 plus 12 month core membership (Can send points equal to the prize money as an alternative!)

2nd place will get; $25, €25 or £25 plus 3 month core membership (Can send points equal to the prize money as an alternative!)

3rd place will get; $15, €15 or £15 and a 3 month membership (Can send points equal to the prize money as an alternative!)

4th place will get; $10, €10 or £10 and a 1 month membership (Can send points equal to the prize money as an alternative!)


Please feel free to share this journal as I want to make this known to all my friends and possible artists who would like to join!! I will not start this contest until I have a fair number of contestants as it would be far too easy to win those lovely lovely prizes

Just to be clear, I'd appreciate it if you kept your comments in the comment section for this journal IF you're wanting to participate as I will need to know! Thank you so much guys, I'm getting a positive response already, I greatly appreciate it! I will keep you updated on everything
