Design contest - unlock your prize! (gc, items, art)
Posted 2023-06-12 07:37:11 (edited)

Hello! My pack's lore is centered around bluejays (Cyanocitta cristata). I would like to have a lead and few other pack's members to resemble this bird :)

Wolves:


1. My lead Jovelline
2. Lead hunter Sukkiiti
3. Polymelia pup Bluejay

Few rules:


- there is no limit, you can enter with as many designs as you want
- specify for which wolf you are entering
- I would like to have at least 10 participants so if those requirements won't be met I will extend the contest
- you can change anything you want (yes, tier 3, 6 and 7 markings as well)
- please use only markings and bases that can be applied via Marking Applicator, Base Changer and lunar event applicators (bases and markings) If you are not sure please check Grouse House Guide
- do not include decors in your design (changing background is fine)
- have fun!

Unlock the rewards!


- First tier (0-5 designs for individual wolf in total): 5 gc
- Second tier (6-10 designs for individual wolf in total): 5 gc + amusement bundle (100 uses, 3-5 gc worth)
Third tier (11-15 designs for individual wolf in total): 10 gc + amusement bundle (100 uses, 3-5 gc worth) + canine fang (2 gc worth)
- Fourth tier (16-20 designs for individual wolf in total): 10 gc + amusement bundle (100 uses, 3-5 gc worth) + canine fang (2 gc worth) + canine claw (2gc worth)
- Fifth tier (21-25 designs for individual wolf in total): 15 gc + amusement bundle (100 uses, 3-5 gc worth) + canine fang (2 gc worth) + canine claw (2gc worth) OR art prize - one flatcolored symmetrical headshot in cartoony style of any wolvden wolf/anthro OC/feral OC (60 gc worth) examples here

Some tips!


Those are some designs of bluejay inspired wolves I came across in the Internet. The art is not mine.

I prefer:
+ natural blue eyes (eg. Azure), Blue, Ice, Clay, Hazel
+ natural dark coloration of skin, nose and claws (eg. Bistre)
+ all 10 slots to be used
+ high opacity
+ big markings (especially all under x markings, half cover, urajiro, trim, tuxedo)
+ small markings (eyebrows, full mask, snout, toes)

I feel neutral about:
~ patches markings, bottoms, cape, ticking, dilution, grizzle, husky markings, highlight, low bottoms, rump markings
~ unnatural dark coloration of skin, nose and claws (eg. Apollo) and natural light coloration of skin, nose and claws (eg. Pallid)

I don't want any:
- unnatural eyes (most of lunar ones like Frost, Lumino etc.)
- unnatural skin, nose and claws colors (eg. Selenite)
- marking like butcher, elbow, blaze, innear ear, cheeks, tail tip, muzzle, nose, predator, throat, spectacles

Start: 12th of June
End: 18th of July

Jovelline:
~There is already an incredible start here just by removing warm colored markings and heightening the opacity of the losna and selene marks, so if you want a more lowkey look that is cheaper I would just do that.
~This would be quite expensive but it definitely gets across the bluejay idea while maintaining distinctly canid ideas in the toes and expressiveness of the eyebrows, and who doesn't love some good socks? Also, relaxed pose shows off the scar decor.
~A less expensive version of above, also both of these do not change anything but markings, position, and background--not full marks
~This one is full marks with a base change to caelum as well as no marking removals needed (it will need opacity changer)
~Similar to above but requires no opacity chagers
~similar to above but minimal marking removal required
~This is no base change using nearly all the marks you prefer

Bluejay:
~A simple base change goes a long way for this one
~Full marks, base change, lots of event marks
~Less expensive version of above
~Similar to other one i made with socks, no base change
~same as above but with base change

Hello there! Thank you for your works! Unfortunately some of those designes use markings that are not allowed in this contest (6th for Jov, 2nd, 3rd for Bluejay) so they won't be counted as entries.
The expensiveness of design is not a problem! Just be creative, do not worry about the cost of it ^.^
Please try to make the designs more different than just changing one element (such as the base). Of course they count towards the overall number increasing the prize but I am less inclined to choose those that required less work from the author ^^'

Thank you for your entries! I will update the list when I'm home.
If possible, please do not use decors in your design, especially those covering the wolf. It is making it harder for me to see the colors and patterns. I will update this rule in a moment ^^
