Hello there, fellow Artists! My name is Antirah but you can call me Rrath! To get straight to the point: This is a contest called AVA or Artist vs. Artist. Best is that i answer a few questions beforehand, for new contestants! What is AVA? AvA is a contest in which As many artists as possible can participate. the contest will be held in different rounds. Each artist get's paired up with another artist. (or a group of artists at first, depending on how many people join). How does AVA work? Every round has a main theme and each group of artists that go against each other get's a sub theme. Example: Main round subject: Underwater Team Artist1 vs Artist2 vs Artist3 vs Artist 4 Theme: Whales Team Artist5 vs Artist6 vs Artist7 vs Artist 8 Theme: Coral Reef Now each artist has to draw a picture to their theme or whatever else the rounds rule is (there will not only be drawing for themes be involved). After the round has ended me as well as a group of anonymous judges, that i will choose myself will vote. Half of each Group's Artist will then proceed to the next round. If there are only three people in a Team then two people will proceed into the next round. How can i join?! In the comments, you will say 'I want to join AvA!', and you will then be added to the roster. Congrats, you are now in AvA! What is the deadline for each round? I have not yet decided although i feel that 2 weeks for each round should be enough time. I will not extend deadlines for individual people, that would just mess the whole thing up. I'm sorry. Can i use my Characters in my pictures? By all means: Yes. Fan characters are allowed as well. But please no canon characters that aren't yours. Of course unless your theme states otherwise! How does judging work? I will give my judges a list of things to account in your drawing and they will give each points from 1 to 5. The points will all be counted and the pictures with the highest vote goes on to the next round. Criteria for judging are: How it fits the theme: Creativity: Skill: Effort: I didn't get past round one. Can i do something else? I have not yet thought of anything that you could do otherwise to participate. Maybe i will think of something. I'm always open to suggestions too. Where do i submit my pictures for each round? Every round will have an open studio that is labeled with the theme. You will be able to submit art without it having to be approved. Please ONLY submit your real entries. How many entries can i submit each round? Only one entry per person each round!! If you submitted your art you will NOT be able to change it! Alright, that is it for now. If you have questions please feel free to ask here or on my profile.
