Survey: I need your help, please.
General | Posted 3 years agoHello everyone!
I wanna start on a project idea of mine that I had in my head for a couple years now, and since the major part of my studies are now complete and life gets mostly stable now, I finally have the opportunity to start working on it!
For that, I need to do some market research first though. For that I need your help.
If you are an artist and/or a commissioner and have a few minutes to spare, I would be very grateful if you could fill out this form:
https://forms.gle/xPKsTKrMN73Fb6bn7
The form will stay open until the end of May.
If you could spread the word as well, it would help a ton!
Thank you :)

Raffle-Competition: The results
General | Posted 4 years agoHello everyone!
The results are in! (A little quicker than I expected, actually...)
Who were the finalists?
The numbers drawn in order were #27
ValkyriaFreyja , #31
Fr0stbit3 , #20
Shiro-Kitsune , #28
Sandfire18 and #4
LeSirBen
What were the ideas submitted?
Following ideas have been submitted:
ValkyriaFreyja ( A )
Leni (Feral) + Dragon (Feral)
Leni and the other dragon are in a Dauntless (game) hunt, holding their favourite weapons. There is an Embermane (Monster) charging at them, and Leni points at it, shouting "BOOP THE SNOOT!" to the other dragon in a very mock-angery face. The other dragon stands there to prepare the boopening.
Fr0stbit3 ( B )
Leni (Feral) + Dragon (Feral)
Dragons are wrapped up like sushi rolls to imply “Dragon Roll” sushi. They’d be wrapped up with rice, seaweed to make them look like an actual dragon roll!
Shiro-Kitsune ( C )
Leni (Feral or Anthro) + Arctic Fox (Anthro)
The fox, being on the rather short side, is trying to be a big spoon to Leni, treating him as if he is an oversized plushy. As they try to cuddle him, they look like they are just a furry cape on Leni's back.
Sandfire18 ( D )
Leni (Feral) + Dragon (Feral)
Leni is sitting in front of a very big cup with ice cream (his favorite flavor) and eating it with a spoon while the other dragon is hugging the cup with ice cream and trying to cool down because of the hot weather. Leni looks a bit surprised (or other preferred emotion) at him while the other dragon has his snout in the ice cream and eats it without a spoon.
LeSirBen ( E )
Leni (Feral) + Dragon (Feral)
Leni is building a snowman, however, the kobold is stuck inside the snowman. One can still see the head and arms sticking out while the snowman is being built around him.
What's the final result?
Participants were asked to distribute [5, 3, 2, 1] points across all the other ideas, while I gave [7, 5, 3, 2, 1] to the ideas.
Before I reveal the table, I'd like to point out that all of the ideas were amazing. It was really, really difficult to decide how to distribute the points for myself, and I'll add a few words to my choices as well.
The point table can be read as follows: [i]Participant (Letter code, see above) | A + B + C + D + E + Leni | TOTAL
A | 0 + 2 + 1 + 5 + 2 + 5 | 15
B | 1 + 0 + 2 + 1 + 5 + 7 | 16
C | 3 + 1 + 0 + 3 + 1 + 1 | 09
D | 2 + 3 + 3 + 0 + 3 + 2 | 13
E | 5 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 0 + 3 | 20
A few words to my choices:
A: This idea just has something personal to it, and that's why I enjoy it so much. In a raffle like this, it's a bit difficult to get personal things like these across properly to other people, but at least I can value them ^^ Certainly something worthy talking about afterwards, in private ;P
B: The moment I read it, this idea genuinely made me laugh. I really loved the imagination of it, and I really knew that Vampi would've absolutely loved to draw this. Maybe I'll get back to this later!
C: This is a classic, but that's sadly also why it's got the lowest score. It's nice and simple, but the other ideas simply have more to it. I enjoy the wholesomeness in it though <3
D: It's derpy, it fits the style, great! It was really tough placing it where it is, but sadly some placement has to be made.
E: To me it seems like a solid idea. It has a lot of potential, especially with the derpyness included, yet it's still simple enough to be easily understood. Made me chuckle quite a bit as well.
That means, with a total of 20 points, the winner is
LeSirBen - Congratulations!
So what now?
I'll contact the winner and Vampi to get things running. It might take a couple of days (I planned to have it started with the start of August), but expect to see the result soon!
Thank you to everyone for participating, it was a lot of fun to try this out, and I'm amazed by the variety provided by the different ideas. Sorry to those who didn't make it.
I'd love if you would be able to provide some feedback as well! After all, this was a bit of an experiment as well, so it'd be great to hear what you liked, what you didn't like, what could be improved or if this idea should be scrapped altogether...

The Raffle-Competition goes into Round 2!
General | Posted 4 years agoThank you to everyone for participating! <3
The raffle is closed and the finalists have been generated!
To keep the competition fair, I will not publish the finalists yet. However, the finalists have been noted. Please respond to that note within 48 hours, otherwise I will have to reroll that slot.
The final results, including the ideas, will be announced as soon as the second phase is over (approximately one week from now)
EDIT: Please do not comment on whether you made it or not if you have entered. That defeats the whole purpose of keeping it anonymous for the vote.

Raffle-Competition
General | Posted 4 years agoWho can participate?
Everyone who is watching me. New watchers are welcome!
What can I win?
An art piece featuring a character of your choice plus mine (Leniovias), SFW
The piece is going to be drawn by
Vampi /
Etrii and it's going to be a full artwork in the "Doodle" style
How does this work?
This raffle-competition will have two stages:
Stage 1: Raffle
Since an actual competition between a potential high number of people here would be way too difficult to run a competition, I need to raffle out participants first.
This is purely chance based. Everyone gets a number, if you get drawn, you win.
In this stage, 5 participants will be drawn.
The raffle ends on Sunday, the 25th of July 2021 at 11:59pm CEST (GMT+2). I will *not* announce the winners until the whole thing is done, but I will message them privately. If you do not respond within 24 hours, your spot will be rerolled.
Stage 2: Competition
Once I have drawn the five final participants, each one of them can submit their art idea including their and my character. The idea must be SFW! I can decline the idea if I feel uncomfortable with it, but I'll give you time to come up with something else.
Then, when I have gathered all the ideas from all participants, I will streamline them a little, and then post each idea to every participant anonymously.
Each participant can then distribute a pool of points to the ideas they like the most (excluding their own, of course). The pool is [5, 3, 2, 1].
I will also distribute points myself, my points pool is [7, 5, 3, 2, 1].
That means, the maximum number of points an idea can get is 27. Whichever idea gets the most points wins!
(Hint: Silly/Derpy or cute ideas usually go quite well with that style!)
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT post your awesome idea during Stage 1! Posts will be deleted if you do. You can reparticipate without your idea afterwards, though, but I will not notify you. Refer to the ""How do I participate"" section for more details.
How do I participate?
1) You must be watching (new watchers are welcome). You *can* share this journal and I'd appreciate if you do, but it's not giving you any advantages.
2) Please list your number in order (#1, #2, #3 etc.) If I find duplicates, I'll replace them later on with the lowest still available number.
3) There is a small passphrase hidden in this journal, marked by green words. Include it in your reply, please, to ensure you have read the whole thing.
Good luck, have fun!
