"But vest ," you exclaim while stroking that perfect soul patch you've been nitpicking for the last six years.  "While we know how deserving and righteous we are in receiving such a gift, what truly compels you to emotionally scar your accountants so!?"

To which I reply, "Because if you people don't save me from my own impulsive purchases, I'll be drowning in The Legend of Korra merchandise by the end of the month!"

Oh, and to shamelessly promote this June Coloring Contest thing-i-ma-bobber down here...


The Presents:
June 'Zodiac / Seven Deadly Sins' Color Contest:


Last month, we held a lineart contest based on the theme of 'Zodiac / Seven Deadly Sins.'  We even had a voting period, and declared a winner!  Here are the five runner-ups from that contest:

For the coloring contest, we won't just be opening up those line arts.  You can use any entry from the May Lineart Contest!  Any one!  You can find all the May entries here: vest.deviantart.com/favourites…

Take any of those images, and give it some color.  All medium is accepted.  You can color these images with Photoshop, Painter, Gimp, OC, crayons, color pencils, markers, pastels, melted wax, you name it.  If it colors, it's acceptable.

Then upload the finished colored image to your dA gallery.  Images will be accepted until July 1st, and a voting period will be held afterward.



PRIZES.


1000 dA Points from vest
2,000 dA Points from the color-me-club (Go to CMC-Donations to donate to the prize pool)

If you'd like to donate a prize, use the donation widget on .  Donors to that prize pool will be featured in the color-me-club journal.  Donors of 50 points or more will also get a three-thumbnail feature in the color-me-club journal.



I'M DONE WITH THE COLOR.  NOW WHAT?


Once you have completed your coloring contest entry, submit it to your DeviantArt gallery.  Then, send the color-me-club a note.  The note should be titled "JUNE CONTEST ENTRY," and the note needs to contain a [link] to your colored image.


ANY SPECIAL RULES?


A few.

By contributing your lineart to this contest, you automatically agree to the rules listed herein, and give permission to the color-me-club to showcase your artwork in the color-me-club journal.

Only one entry per deviant.

Entries must be dated no earlier than June  1st, 2012.

Entries should be received by July 1st.  While we still accept entries through voting, you understand that late entries will be uploaded when the club is updated, and the artist will lose potential votes with a late entry.

Winners of previous contests ARE allowed to participate.  There are no restraints for how often members can contribute.  The game here isn't about winning.  It's about creating.

You do not have to be a color-me-club member to participate.  This is open to the whole dA community!

Lastly, have only one artist submit the image.  Collaborative efforts are encouraged.  However, ensure the other collaborator knows the image will be submitted to the contest, and determine who will be representing the image.

Best of luck, everybody!

So when you're using the lineart...do you need to keep the original lineart directly on there? For I color in a...different matter that requires the line to be a bit different...

vest In reply to ShikiMatsuri [2012-06-11 04:45:57 +0000 UTC]

The lineart doesn't need to be preserved. You are free to paint over it if you need to, just as long as it doesn't drastically alter the content of the image (for example, erasing the clothes off a character for a cheap effective popularity boost).
