thank you to everyone participating and who participated previously v v v what's DTA? look it up man i dont know /j it means Draw To Adopt. basically you draw or animate any specific character you want in what’s basically a competition of sorts?? if you win you get to keep whatever character you drew / animated for rules and other - the names are purely for me to be able to very quickly recognize which character you’re drawing for. you can give them any name and any gender if you wish to do so - be nice!!! putting others down or getting mad because you did not get a character will not be tolerated. if i see you getting fussy with other people entering because of this you will be kicked out. this also applies to guilt tripping - no ai, no having other people draw it for you, no tracing etc!!!! you’re better than that gang - you COULD go for multiple designs if you wanted to but because of how few there are it’s very unlikely you’ll get both sadly - winners are picked by how much effort was put into whatever you made and by what you draw. quality > quantity, don’t push yourself to pump out a lot of drawings. personal preference is obviously play a part but i will try to stay as neutral as i can to make it fair to everyone - you can edit the design to your liking as long as it’s still relatively recognizable!! if you end up getting the character afterwards then you can edit them to any extent as long as it isn’t inappropriate - you do not need to ask to enter - i will try 2 be supportive of everybody but me complimenting something more “ enthusiastically “ does not mean i like it more!! i try to have a neutral standpoint for everything, i just want to make sure people dont feel discouraged about their entry ^_^’ “ what do i do once im done with my entry? “ you can either remix this project or send me a link in the comments to the entry (note i would rather it not be off site if possible) “ can i give them a backstory for the entry?? “ yes!!! do anything with that honestly. just try not to get unhealthily attached BEFORE you get them ig “ how many entries can i make??? “ any amount but after a certain point it’ll stop going towards your chances of getting said character (don’t burn yourself out plz) that’s all 4 now, have fun i tried to make the designs diverse but half of them ended up being fish :heart-broken: i swear i can do better than this i just had artblock and my artstyle changed up immediately after making the last design spare me vruh
open until sometime in late july to late august?? unsure for now, depends on how many people decide to enter designs that do not get any entries will be reused for later things. do not worry if you dont get it in time!!!! you’ll be able to see them again
