ART CONTEST TIME!
Want to win a BJD or an art commission?

I'm opening an art contest as I've been trying to compile art of some of my most beloved characters.

Deadline:  October 31st, 2010
Prizes:

1st Place prize : a BJD.

Either of these: ** (depends on Winner's location)

Kitsune Lord, SD; he's about 60 cm tall, has an amateur faceup and will come naked but with the wig shown.
His ears are magnetic, so you can choose whether to have him as a  kitsune or a human doll.  He is a LE DZ Mo head ( 1/3) on a DIM body.

OR

Special Dollzone sea dragon BJD:

(He's about 16 cm tall and utterly adorable. Please note he doesn't actually stand, I was holding him up by a horn.

** Shipping an SD doll outside of the US/ CANADA is ridiculously expensive, so if the winner is in a different country it would be automatically the dragon boy. ^^ If the Winner is in the US/ CANADA they can choose between them. If the 1st place winner is not into BJD an art commission of up to 2 characters, full colour can be substituted.

2nd place:

Art by me ( 1 character, colour or inks - up to winner)


Details:

Draw a picture of one ( or several!) of the following characters:

- Any of the characters from Winterborn, my novel. I ask that if you choose any of these characters you stay true to the description of their pairings/ personality etc. Always happy to answer questions about them!

- Angus or Ti'naul ( or both!) from my webcomic Nocturnia:

EDIT: ADDITIONAL CHARACTER INFO, as ASKED - if there are other characters your curious about, let me know!


If there's some you would like to know more about/ need additional info PM me.

Angus and Ti'naul-
Angus is an unseelie prince, and head of the sidhe armies. Ti'naul  is the lord of the lost/ lord of the pookah, shapeshifters that once served the sidhe but have since been set free ( hence no longer lost). Angus and Ti were lovers, but are now on opposing sides of an army, despite still being very much in love with one another. Duty wins out, after all.

Winterborn

Tereg x Mirin; They start out as mentor and trainee and eventually become very close, though both ( especially Mirin) have trust and intimacy issues.  They are always rescuing one another from bad situations.

Eihall x Kinnean: Never actually cross the line into lovers, much to their regret. They are as close as two people can be, and depend on one another completely. Kinnean is Eihall's second, and they are bound brothers... very much duty bound and generally humorless.

Quinne x Anita: From very different worlds, they pretty much defied all conventions to be together. They have never regretted the decision, and live out their married life as keepers of the sidhe library in dragonkeep, devoted to one another.


Tomo and Yoshi

Are brothers in a cyberpunk setting, where Tomo is a hacker and yoshi a hitman, both working for the yakuza.


Calanthra

Wist is a warrior in a scifi/ fantasy setting, and he underwent significant experimentation and torture as a prisoner before he was rescued. He is currently trying to get his life back together.

Aloe - is a stick in the mud. I haven't played around with him much, but I suspect he'd top Wist if Wist ever let him. He was in charge of his recovery and convalescence, so while Wist doesn't trust or like him Aloe has a soft spot for him.

Bhuddas- Is a no- nonsense kind of woman. After a bad breakup she  pretty much decided she is done with the lot of 'em -- instead she turned all her attention and energy into creating her own business, a restaurant. She still has a moment's weakness now and then, but for the most part she is happy on her own.
