Just some regulations on the entries...

• You can color/ink your pic w/ CG, or Traditional materials. :3
• I DO NOT TAKE STOLEN WORK. >:[ So don't even try.
• You can have more than one person in your entry, but make sure they are both playing cards. (Or one of them is a playing card, and the other is related to the playing card in some way. [ex: ace of spades and a blackjack dealer])
• You can only have one entry... sorry. ^^; (It's easier for me to judge this way) Although, I can replace your existing entry with a new picture.

• Keep the entries to a G to PG level, please.

Follow the regulations, fools. >:D (o3o I still love you all, my fools. xD)

Oh! Pop quiz time!! :D Since the theme is cards, we should all know the suits. (Hearts, diamonds, clovers, and spades.) As we should know, Hearts and Diamonds are red, while clovers and spades are black. Also, we all know what a diamond, heart, and clover is in real life. :3 But do any of us know what a spade is? :] (I do. xP) If anyone knows, I'll give them a virtural cookie. xP

Playing Card Contest!

That's right, guys! I've come up with a new contest. ^_^ Tis my second one. :3
As always, the information on the contest can be found in the Introduction.

The contest theme this time is to draw a Playing Card (from a 52 card deck + joker) in human form. You can use your characters from your manga, or some random person you made up just for the contest. BUT! Do not use characters that already exist. You must use an Original Character. :]
The most important things in this contest is the costume and pose you come up with. (Unlike the other one, where you just have to draw something battle-y.)
If you want to enter, say "I WANNA ENTER!!!" or something like that. xD I'll add people who say "I might enter..." to the contestants list too. ^_^
Anyways, the prizes are:
First prize: Fullbody colored pic of your Playing Card OC (choice of CG or Traditional coloring)
Second prize: Halfbody colored pic of your Playing Card OC (choice of CG or Traditional coloring)
Third Prize: Fullbody lineart of your Playing Card OC (choice of CG or Traditonal inking)
