THE SKINNY
Using the template provided here ([link]), create a costume for Aurora. It can be anything, a Geisha outfit, a giant Barney suit, a sexy cop outfit, a saloon dress, ANYTHING! The more exotic, funny, and original, the better! As a cybernetic street samurai assassin stripper elf, Aury's bound to have a closet full of crazy colorful things (and sharp pointy objects).

Remember, a costume includes not only the clothing, but the accessories and the hairstyle. You can't dress her up in her best threads without shoes, earrings, and a magnificent coiffure of hair.

NOTE: Feel free to enter multiple times or include multiple costumes on a single sheet. It is NOT required for entries to be digital. Print her out and give her a whirl! Also, you can display the costume however you wish, in pieces or already on the doll. The choice is up to you!

JUDGING & PRIZES
There will be several categories of winners. (Perhaps more if the entries inspire them)

Creator's Choice-The one which I personally like the most will receive their choice of a 8"x10" print from my gallery, a pencil character sketch by me, and their costume featured in a future Aurora image.

People's Choice-The winner which will be chosen by popular vote via poll will receive their choice of a 4"x6" print from my gallery, a journal feature, and a short story/poem by *HiddenCaitastrophe.

The Most Hilarious-The costume that makes me split a stitch laughing at how pissed off Aurora would be in it gets a journal feature and a black and white drawing from ~faerywitch.

The Most Original-The costume that makes me go 'wtf were you thinking? But damn that's cool' also gets a journal feature and a cell-shaded drawing from ~faerywitch.

Surprise! Surprise!-If you manage to catch my 100k pageview then you get a special prize! What, you ask? It's a surprise!

Want to help out with this contest? Feel free to plug it for me or send me a note if you have prizes to donate (ie. journal features, stock, art, prints, etc)! I want to make my 100k bash a big one.

DEADLINE
You have about a month and a half with the deadline at MIDNIGHT on November 30th.

So let's make some clothing magic with Aurora, everyone's favorite dress-up killer!
