A Place of Peace CONTEST- Updates!

=teaphotography:iconteaphotography: reports, February 4
This is a Contest open to some mediums of art, in order to express one aspect of peace: A Place of Peace. The concept is very important in this contest, as equally as quality of art. But because concept is just as important, we invited several different art forms to participate together, which seems to be a nice gesture. There is a project to help Haiti attached to this Contest.

1.1 - Contest Brief


If you've already seen the prize list, you might be thinking to yourself, 'What do I need to do to get those prizes? Draw a monkey balancing on a ping-pong ball with his spine facing north-west?'. Nope, not anything remotely as complicated as that.

Not only that, but I am also going to be printing out every entry on to high-gloss paper to preserve them in a scrapbook for years to come. :D

1.6 - FAQs



What was the inspiration for this contest?
I don't get a lot of fanart, so I thought it would be a fun idea to encourage people to learn about my OCs while getting a reward for it. I've been developing some of my OCs since I was eleven (I'm nearly seventeen now) and I would really like to see them being portrayed by some amazing artists. Even when I was lying in hospital sick, I was still developing and writing about my OCs, so it would be nice to find a way to preserve them (via the scrapbook) if I ever deviate away from the idea and start a new one.

I live outside of the UK, but I still want Copics. What can I do?
As far as I know, those five-pack set of Copics are only available in the UK. However, if you find me a site in your region (.com for America, .ie for Ireland etc) that sells individual Copics, I will happily buy them that way. Please remember that you will have to be comfortable with giving me your address if you are to receive physical prizes.

You mentioned that the person who gathers the most participants gets a small prize - isn't that technically a popularity contest?
It may be, but you have to look at it from my perspective: I'm paying good money for this contest, whereas 70% of contests on dA offer art only for prizes. Not only that, but I will genuinely appreciate every entry and I look forward to meeting new friends via this contest, so it's not as if I'm screwing people over.

How do you know who gathered the most participants?
I will be awarding the prize to the most amount of comments left on the official contest journal that state that they were directed here via a said person. Example:

"I'm joining! I saw this contest from x".

How can I spread this contest?
Helping to spread the contest can be as simple as faving this news article! However, if you wish to go the extra mile, you can feature the news article/journal in your own journal, which I will definitely appreciate a lot. :hug:

I want to do a pairing picture, what are the official pairings?
:bulletpurple: NiamhxAlex
:bulletpurple: DylanxViolet
:bulletpurple: MelaniexSebastian

You can also do MimixAlex if you wish. :)

Can I donate prizes still?
Of course you can! :hug:

I love you.
I guarantee that I love you more. :heart:

I have a question, but it's not in the FAQ list.
Feel free to note me about it, I don't bite at all. :heart:

How do I enter?
Leave a comment on the official contest journal and your name will be entered in the 'Entrants' list.

How do I keep up-to-date with the contest?
You can keep up-to-date with the contest by keeping an eye on the contest journal. :D

Thank you very much for reading and good luck in the contest! :heart: :hug:
