Open until it's not. You have plenty of time Please read the rules and design notes! Hello helloo sorry for this taking a bit to come out, couldn't really figure out any good designs for a bit :') It is out now, though!! I'm honestly shocked I've ever made it this far, 900 followers?? That's like 100 people in a room but times that by 9. Plus 50 which is already a lot of people- Holy crap you guys ilysm <33 /plat I literally never expected to get this far on this site with my silly little drawings and OCs, but you guys proved that so wrong holy cannoli :00 Sappiness aside, let's get onto the info haha [ What is a DTA? ] DTA stands for "draw to adopt", and it is a contest where you draw (or animate) one of the designs presented for a chance to win them for yourself :0 [ Rules ] - Art must be drawn by you!! No tracing, picrew, gacha, bases, or AI image generation, you will be immediately disqualified - Be kind and respectful to other participants - Any medium of art is allowed!! - You must remix for your entry to count - If you are doing an animation meme, using a template is allowed, HOWEVER you must replace the original art with your own and credit the person who made the code - You may enter for more than one design, but you can only win one of them - If you are entering, please plan to actually use the design you entered for if you win, it pains me to see people so excited to have a new character but then just put it into storage </3 - You are allowed to edit the designs to fit your style, but some of them have restrictions. There is extra info on what you can and cannot do when drawing your main entry in the "Design Notes" section :) - You cannot use the design or any variation of the design that you may have made if you didn't win it - No guilt tripping please, it doesn't work on me and it makes me feel bad seeing people put their art or themself down to try to manipulate the judging process just because they want a little guy lol - I mention "main entry" in design notes quite a bit, you can play around with redesigning them in ways that don't follow the design notes, but PLEASE make the main thing that you're entering with follow them!! - Don't ruin your mental health and stress over this like crazy just because you want a funny little fella </3 - Last but certainly not least is to have fun!! [ Optional things to improve chances of winning ] - ANIMATIONS!! Seeing people make full on PMVs or AMVS for these things always impress me so much omg - Animation memes you coded yourself.. yall are wizards i swear, i can hardly even make a full headbop sighs - Backstories! I love lore gggrgrg <3 - Comic strips about said backstories or just funnies,,, they can be hard to make so I don't blame you if not many people make any comics, but man it would be fun to see [ Design Notes ] I refer to all of these designs by they/them or it/its, but those are simply placeholders!! Feel free to change the gender when you enter for any of them :D Seer Deer - Lowkey Deltarune chapter 4 influence on this one lol - Preferably don't species bend them for your main entry but you can make them feral :) Totally Real Cat - It's 100% real it just has a rat instead of a brain definitely not just a robot - Again, I'd prefer you not species bend for your main entry just to keep the irony in tact, but making them anthro is completely alright!! Moss creature?? Thing???? - I honestly really like this one you're gonna need to impress me a lot for me to give it to you when I decide winners >:) - Edit the design however in your entry, just please keep it recognizable. You need to keep it as a silly little guy design-wise though, that's not optional Circus Knight - Give them actual eyes if it fits your usual style please lmbo I just gave them dot eyes for the sake of simplicity - Honestly the worst design here in terms of colouring, I absolutely ruined it sorry gang X( I do quite like the concepts in this design though, with the carnival aspects combined with knight armour [ Credits ] Characters designed and currently belong to me! (Ownership of designs is subject to change) Song is "Fireplace" by Toby Fox Backgrounds are various screenshots I had saved that I thought fit, first one is from thisisnotawebsitedotcom.com, second one from the X-Files intro, third one from Google (don't know the source (also it's not the original from Google, it has a low-quality Raz png I put there but you can't see it so it's fine lol)), and the last one is from Sea of Stars! why do almost all of these guys have funny hats. i like drawing funny hats way too much... no you can't get rid of them
