February EMTC! + 18 Entries! + CLOSED!

Lots of great entries!  Let the judging commence!





So, it's February again. The month of cupid, hearts, and single people rebelling against the materialistic importance put on Valentine's Day. I will let someone else host a contest with that theme. Me, I want to see darker pieces for this month. Now, this doesn't mean I want to see a bunch of emos lamenting about the sad state of their miserable lifes, although
those are completely acceptable. The theme, however, is much broader than that. This term is used to describe a form of architecture, a sub group of Germany, Medieval times, a romantic horror genre of fiction, as well as things relating to the macabre and grotesque. Show me some goth!

_{Definition for Gothic found here: www.thefreedictionary.com/Goth…}

Only new submissions for this. The emote must be submitted after the theme has been announced.

You can enter as many times as you want.

Please include a brief explanation to the theme, if it isn't already completely obvious in the deviation.

Please submit your piece in the form of a .png or a .gif.

The piece must include an emoticon of some sort. Kinda the point, really.

Collaborations are accepted, with the prize being split between the artists should it place.

Note your contest entry to SparklyDest, or leave a comment on this journal.

Deadline February 27th, 2012, midnight EST.
