The contest is always open for prizes contributions/donations!

And now let's see the most boring and annoying part: the RULES

Everyone can enter! Just leave a comment below (or fave this journal) and you're in. Of course you don't have to 'watch' me; be a watcher only if you like my art!
You can enter as many times as you like, but you can win only once. (Except if it's a bonus prize)
Entries must be in Colour, though if you can't colour then I still accept Black/White or Gray-scale, but no  linearts or simple sketches.
It can be digital or traditional.
Any form of art is allowed. It can be anything and you can use any style you like (full body/bust up/headshot/chibi/realistic/anime style, your own personal style/animation/pixel art/icon, etc.)
When you finish you entry (your entry must be new, you cannot enter my contest with an old picture you probably drew for me in the past), submit it at the DA community, adding the link of my contest and mention me at the description.
Inform me by commenting on this journal with the link of your entry. All the entries will be favoured and put up in a specific folder. (Just in case I'm clumsy, be sure that your entry ended up at the right folder).
You are allowed to use references but no bases or linearts.
Have fun!! That's not just a rule or suggestion, that's an order!! kidding.

It's not a requirement to advertise my contest, however advertisements will be welcome with love! ♥

Please do not steal from other people's art

And now the main subject: my OCs' reference sheets

My main cast

   

The rest of my Original Characters

               

Do you have questions? Check below before you ask -you may find your answer:

F.A.Q.

 Please read!

Something I faced before and it was a very bad experience. For my contest I'll become a cold, fair, distant judge   ! Every artist and entry will treat all the same. No one -I repeat- NO ONE will get any special treatment or more privileges just because they happen to be my friends, my inspiration, my motivations, my idols etc...
No way! I'll be fair and everyone will be treated equally!

There, I made myself clear.

Μinimum entries: 21!

If there’s gonna be less than 21 entries, my contest will be cancelled! In this case the artists which already submitted at least one entry to my contest will receive 5 as honourable prize.

I think I wrote everything... and I feel dead tired already

Good luck to you all

Special thanks to everyone who volunteered to offer a prize. You guys and gals rock!

All entries at the folder:  here

Melan Anime, at your service!

P.S. I'm so excited to see how many of you guys and gals will enter my contest and I can't wait  to take a look at your wonderful art!
