★ CTHALIA FANART CONTEST ★

Welcome to the official CTHALIA fanart contest!

This contest is to celebrate the impending release of Cthalia's final act, and the creativity of the fan community! You join by drawing characters from the story, and winners will receive custom made art of their OC or favorite fandom character!

The contest will be running for just under three weeks through the month of April, and will be accepting entries across Toyhouse, Tumblr, and the Cthalia Discord server. Winners and prizes will be announced on a livestream at the end of May.

All contest submissions will be uploaded to a temporary gallery on Toyhouse, and added to individual character profiles once the contest is over. If you would like to view the gallery at any time, you can do so here!

Please read the following contest information thoroughly before choosing to enter. If you have any questions, you are free to ask them in the comments of this post or the blog's ask box. Good luck!

The usage of bases, tracing, and/or AI is strictly prohibited. 2) Drawings submitted to this contest must be started and finished within the contest's time frame.

★ JUDGING CRITERIA ★

Entries will be judged based on character accuracy, story accuracy, and effort. Individual artistic skill levels will NOT be taken into account when judging in order to keep the contest completely fair.

When choosing winners, I will be looking for pieces that are accurate to the character designs, follow all rules of the contest, and achieve one or more of the following: -Strongly represent individual main cast characters from Cthalia -Creatively depict specific scenes from Cthalia -Capture relationships between characters in Cthalia

You are welcome to use these basic criteria as a guide, but don't let them hinder your creativity!
