(DTIYS info after speech '^^) Hey again everyone! Where do I even start... This project marks a pretty big milestone I've recently reached: 100+ followers! I can't begin to describe how grateful I am. I've been on this platform for 6 years, and at first, I didn't really know about its online community. Discovering this community, interacting with other great users, seeing amazing projects, it's all been so wonderful. Gaining followers, people who like my projects, my art, is so incredibly encouraging. My art would have never improved the way it did without the things I've learnt from the art community here. I started out with wonky lineart, 1 layer artworks and bad shading. I'm so proud of where I am now! So many artists on Scratch have been so inspirational for me. MAPS have always been so magical to me (lol). So many people, coming together with their different styles and ideas, all joining together to make one huge passion project! Truly wonderful. Comics are probably the next best thing. They're so many mind-bogglingly good comics with beautiful art, fantastic writing and, as I've said before, seriously determind artists. Have I mentioned that so many comics have improved so much? They've gone from little beginner projects to huge stories with slap-bang amazing art for every. Single. Pannel. The people who've believed in those beginner projects, who've stuck around from the start, are the real fans. I'm proud of you, my fellas. Long story short, I love being here, on Scratch. I love having the occasional chat, catching up with my Scratch friends and posting art. Thank you so, so much to everyone who's followed me. Y'all are such good peeps. (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ) But... reaching this milestone also means a change... One that I'm sorry about. I won't be able to tag all my followers in every post anymore. Yes, that's what it is lol. Did I get you? I'm sorry, but now that they're over a hundred of you guys, how am I supposed to tag every single one of you?? XD Oh. Hold on. Did I say something about a DTIYS? Oh, right. So, to celebrate 100+ followers, I'm hosting my second-ever DTIYS!!! The last one was for, IDK, 60+? I've come so far இ௰இ (ty ty everyone!) So what is a DTIYS? It stands for Draw This In Your Style, and it's a contest where I, the host, provides all of you with one of my artworks! You have to redraw it in your style, and the top 3 winners get prizes! ★・・・・・★・・・・・・★・・・・・★ Contents: ⛧ RULES ⛧ INFORMATION ⛧ PRIZES ★・・・・・・★・・・・・・★・・・・・・★ ☆○o。༓✧☾☁︎˚⁺。RULES。⁺˚☁︎☽✧༓。o○☆ ☆ You don't need to ask to enter, but feel free to inform me in the comments. :3 ☆ Entries can be digital or traditional art. ☆ No hate on other's entries, be nice. ☆ No guilt tripping, I'll choose the winners to my own accord >:0. ☆ Absolutely no AI or any kind of generated art (Picrew, Gacha, IDK). ☆ No tracing AI 'art' or anything else. ☆ No stealing anyone else's art. ☆ Please try to keep entries as remixes. :) ☆ Everyone can enter! ^^ ☆○o。༓✧☾☁︎˚⁺。INFORMΑTION。⁺˚☁︎☽✧༓。o○☆ ☆ The OC in this artwork is Spotflower! You can find her ref here inside the project. (It's pretty outdated, but the design and colour pallet are still the same.) ★ You can also find a flat colour version of this drawing inside the project, to making colour-picking easier ^^. It doesn't include the shades for the lighting or details though. ★ This is alternative-universe Spotflower from one of my AUs, but her actual story vibe is pretty much the same. ★ Spotflower is a Dalmatian dog. ★ She uses she/her pronouns and is Bi$exual + Demiaroace. ★ She's a silly little mad lady. >:3 ★ She's holding a revolver in this artwork, btw. (I dunno what gun anatomy is like, so...) ☆ Feel free to make small changes (to the background, character design, etc.)! ☆ It's okay if you want to slightly simplify the background or make it more detailed! ☆ Spotflower is standing in a city alleyway in this drawing. If you know how to make it look more metropolitan, do implement those ideas into the background! ☆ There's no deadline really, so don't rush. ^^ (I'm just going to keep this open for some time, who knows.) ☆○o。༓✧☾☁︎˚⁺。PRIZES。⁺˚☁︎☽✧༓。o○☆ ☆ 1st place: ✧ Fully-rendered and coloured artwork of any OC you please ✧ Coloured and shaded bust (pfp if you want) of any OC ✧ Follow from me (If I'm already following you, then a doodle of any one of your OCs). ☆ 2nd place: ✧ Coloured and shaded bust (pfp if you want) of any OC ✧ Follow from me (doodle of any one of your OCs if I'm already following you) ☆ 3rd place: ✧ Sketch of any of your OCs ✧ Follow from me (colourless doodle of any one of your OCs if I already follow you).
