Help Us Design a Mascot! Drawing Contest!
11 years ago
CAVE ANIMALIUM
Again, we want to thank everyone who's voted for their participation these past few days. And now comes the fun part…
We have settled on a male/female duo for our two mascots: a male feline and a female cervine. But that's not quite where this thing ends. What we'd like from all of you now are design ideas for the two of these mascots. Being as that the families of Felidae and Cervidae are quite large, we welcome you to choose any species within these two families as the animals that you draw for your design ideas. For example, as your feline choice you could draw a lion, and for your cervine choice you could draw a reindeer. Or you could choose a jaguar and an elk! Or a house cat and a muntjac! The choice is totally up to you.
Contest Rules:
1) You must draw 2 characters (one feline and cervine). These characters will be a duo. We will not be voting on single characters, only duos!
2) Multiple designs can be submitted, but limit one prize per artist (you cannot win all 3).
3) Cervines and felines only. Even things that look cat-like, such as fossas, or that look deer-like, such as springbok, will not be eligible. If you are unsure, Wikipedia that critter or ask us for help.
4) When you have finished your piece, send a private note to us with the link of your completed entry(s) and the names of the species that you have chosen. These entries will be compiled into a list once the contest is closed, and we will have the public vote to decide the winner.
5) Remember that these characters are FERAL, not anthro. Anthro characters will not be accepted. 4-leggers only! Four legs good, two legs bad!
6) Entries must be of new art of new characters made specifically for the contest. (Please don't send in old pics of your fursona.)
7) Have fun, stay hydrated, and play fair!
Contest Prizes:
1st place: A custom badge made by Wielder and a $30 cash prize receivable through Paypal will be awarded to the first place winner. The winning designs will be adopted by the Feral Furs group and subsequent use of the character will be at our discretion. Credit for character design will go to the artist on our main page.
2nd place: $10 cash prize receivable through Paypal will be awarded to the second place winner.
3rd place: A minimal-detail image (such as a lineart, flat color, or icon) of a character of choice drawn by Shadowwolf will be awarded to the third place winner.
Contest Deadline:
October 18, 2014.
Felidae Ideas:
Serval, clouded leopard, margay, cheetah, sabertooth tiger, caracal, bobcat, flat-headed cat, jaguarundi, lion, etc. Any feline design welcome!
Cervidae Ideas:
Marsh deer, whitetail deer, caribou, moose, elk, red deer, pudu, muntjac, roe deer, fallow deer, axis deer,
Key deer, etc. Any cervine design welcome!

I have one question - will these characters be allowed to sport markings or colorations that are not seen on the living animals themselves? I have assumed that these characters are to be realistic in their depictions, without much deviation from the real-life field markings of each species.
Good luck to all who enter! ^^!
