Apologue Fanart Contest

*mythchan:iconmythchan: reports, August 17, 2007
<div align="center"><img src="http://www.luvluv.net/apologue/apologuetitle.jpg">

T O P I C :: any of the chapters and characters of APOLOGUE. you may choose from Sleepsong (Dinah and Shem), An Empty Station (Noah, K, Morgan, and Xiao), Purewater (Starke and Sylph), Lotus (Vice, Versa, the creatures), or Pathos (Bibi). Crossovers are allowable.

DUE DATE :: October 1, 2007.

R U L E S
1. You may use any media at your disposal. Your entry is not limited to hand drawn means-- we will be accepting photography, BJD related entries, and sculpture. In addition to that, if you want to do a comic, have at it. As long as your entry reflects an APOLOGUE influence, or we can see how APOLOGUE has affected you, all bets are off. So be creative. :heart:
2. Limit on entries is 5-- that makes it so that if someone wants to do art for every chapter, they can do so and still have it showcased in the contest.
3. DO NOT find other people's work and claim it as your own. If this somehow happens and we catch you, you'll be banned from the contest.
4. All subject matter is FINE. Nudity, violence, and sex are all present in APOLOGUE itself, so it doesn't seem right to limit the content in the contest. Guro is more than acceptable.
5. REMEMBER that APOLOGUE has intent behind everything-- the best entries will keep that present in theirs. Parody and comic entries will also be enjoyed immensely. :3
6. HAVE FUN and let the games begin. :3

ENTRIES can be noted to me.

P R I Z E S + W I N N E R S

Winners will be determined by a majority rules voting table. If there's too many entries, we'll do a couple rounds. It'll be fun. 8D

as for prizes...

FIRST PLACE :: 1000 dollars to spend on original Apologue related artwork [ 1 cover illustration or 4 original pages, dependent upon what is available ] + a complimentary copy of Apologue upon release [ number request will be considered, but not necessarily granted ]
SECOND PLACE :: 500 dollars to spend on original Apologue related artwork [ 2 original pages, dependent upon what is available ] + a complimentary copy of Apologue upon release [ number request will be considered, but not necessarily granted ]
THIRD PLACE :: 250 dollars to spend on original Apologue related artwork [ 1 original page, dependent upon what is available ] + a complimentary copy of Apologue upon release [ number request will be considered, but not necessarily granted ]

Winners will be featured in my journal and in my favourites. :3

J U D G E ' S . A W A R D S

The judges, ~gloombox and myself, being the creators, will judge this portion of the contest. Our favourites will be asked if they would like to be published in the APOLOGUE concept book, for distribution and promotion to my fanbase and those who love APOLOGUE. Publication will require between 2 and 5 images, and the book will be in full colour. So if you think you have what it takes to get in our favour and hit the press, keep that in mind! Publication will not be compensated, as the concept book is a smaller project, but if we can afford it (which we might not at that point, since we'll be laying out 18K for Apologue proper) we will try to get you a copy of the concept book. Judge's awards will not wait till the contest end. If we are awarding you this, we'll let you know ASAP so you can make your decision.



C H A R A C T E R S & R E F E R E N C E S

Now that all of our rules and technicalities are out of the way, we will move onto our subjects. I know that SLEEPSONG is the one that is all over the place, but I think it will probably be the most popular because of it. Let's see images of all the chapters, okay? :3
