-Mr. Bilbo, where are you off to?
-I'm going on an adventure!
The very recent release of The Desolation of Smaug trailer quite inspired this contest's theme. It's just six months to go! Your task in this contest is not simply to draw a character or place from the Middle-earth, that would be just another boring Tolkien competition, wouldn't it?
Fire. Mountain(s). Ruins. Shadow. Flower. Treasure. Couple. Smoke. Lights.
9 words for one quest! Your entry must include at least 3 of these things (and you should mention the ones you've picked in your deviation's description). It must refer to something that actually happened in the Middle-earth or other realms from its dimention described by Tolkien. Entries showing nothing but a character posing like a statue won't be accepted, this is GrimGloomTale, not GrimGloomModel.
Don't be afraid of interpreting them as wild as you can! Smoke, for example, could be Smaug's br

Queen Uriel's Fan Art Contest!

Journals / Culture / Contests

Are you guys ready to start a contest?

LEIA AS REGRAS NO FINAL DA PÁGINA EM PORTUGUÊS!

I'm opening today, March 1st, my "Fan Art" contest, to celebrate my 1000 watchers and 100.000 and more views!!

Thanks to everyone who's been a support, a friendly face and much more to me since I joined the DA. I can say my Art gave a huge jump ahead after I met some people here and found new tutorials and advices.

Rules will be quite simple!!

WHAT MUST I DO?

You must make a *new* artwork based on any art on my *featured* gallery and Sub galleries. Meaning, no using anything from the scrapbook session, savvy?

You can re-make that art to your liking. But note, that my arts should not be used as stocks, you can use the same stocks I used, but not use my art. You're really free to be creative and original, so wake your muses up!

Also, I must be able to recognize some of my reference in your art, so keep that in mind.

See some examples:

Digital art to Pixel:

Mixed media to Airbrushing:

Other:

Well, you get hang of it. NO need to follow these exactly, you can change my arts into pixel art, traditional art, photography, crafts, ETC. I just won't be accepting Literature (sorry folks).

DATES AND DEADLINES
I'm opening the contest today, March 1st, and will close it on JUNE 12! See that deadline? It's ridiculously huge! You'll have time to think, re-think, make and re-make your entry.

June 12 is my Birthday, so I think it's a great date to start judging. Ah! I'll choose the winners myself... if I think it's necessary, I'll ask for the help of more judges later.

HOW TO SUBMIT?
Junt send your art on a NOTE to me.
Be sure to add on the description of your art that it was made for this contest, and a link to the art you got a reference from.

Em PORTUGUÊS:

Olá Amigos!
Estou começando hoje, 1º de Março um concurso de FanArts para comemorar meus 1000 watchers e mais de 100.000 visitas!!

O QUE EU DEVO FAZER?

Você vai ter de fazer uma arte *nova* baseada em qualquer arte da minha galeria principal e sub galerias. Ou seja, nada da sessão de scraps, tá?

Você pode refazer as minhas artes como quiser. Mas não deve usar minhas artes como Stocks. Pode usar os mesmos stocks que eu usei, mas não as minhas artes. Você tem liberdade pra fazer o que quiser, aproveite e seja original e criativo!

Também, eu devo reconhecer uma referência da minha arte na sua arte, lembre-se disso.

Alguns exemplos:

Digital para Pixel:

Mixed media para Airbrushing:

Outros:

Bom, dá pra entender, né?

Não precisa seguir esses exemplos apenas, você pode transformar meus desenhos em pixels, arte tradicional, fotografia, artesanato, vexels, etc... só não aceitarei Literatura (sorry!).

DATAS E PRAZOS:
Estou abrindo o concurso hoje, dia 1º de Março e vai até dia 12 de JUNHO! Está vendo esse prazo? É ridiculamente grande!! Você vai ter tempo de pensar, repensar, fazer e refazer sua arte.

12 de Junho é meu aniversário, por isso acho que é uma boa data pra começar a julgar. Ah! Eu mesma vou escolher os vencedores... se achar necessário, posso recrutar juizes mais tarde.

COMO CONCORRER?
Envie sua arte para mim em uma NOTE, e não esqueça de colocar na descrição que a arte foi feita para esse concurso, e um link para a arte que você se baseou.
