PLEASE READ

This is no change of rules, just a reminder of a rule that has been there from the beginning:
Tracing is NOT allowed for this event.
Tracing includes: direct tracing, gridding or every kind of sketch (circles, skeleton, dots, etc) that was drawn on the photo to help you get to your result
Using refs is totally allowed, but the characters must be drawn freehanded.
Why: I don't want to see anatomically perfect results, I want to see YOU in your art. Tracing is not a bad thing, it's a great way of improving your skills and learning about anatomy. When tracing, you simply skip the sketching part, which saves a lot of time and struggles, I know, but you are dependant on other's phototgraphy skills to create your final image. This contest is about what YOU are able to do.

Double Jump

This will be a partner-crosscountry class and will be held on the first day, around 4pm.
You need two horses and two riders to enter this event. You may enter with a team from your stable, or team up with a friend! Both need to finish their main entry.
PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED TO ENTER > see rules

Choose an item that the rider will carry along and that will be passed on to the partner. It can be any small item.

This Class consists of two phases:
Phase 1: First part of the parkour
- the item will be passed on to the partner
Phase 2: Second part of the parkour

Draw your characters somewhere along the trail. The item and one obstacle must be shown. The team number must be visible on the saddlepad. At the beginning the weather is still quite nice, but some heavy clouds appear on the horizon and the sky is about to turn grey already. It's verrry windy. During the second phase the clouds will have covered the sky and turn it grey and we'll have some nice cooling summer rain! Watch out, it might be slippery on the trail. Horses must wear protection on the legs and a helmet is recommended.

Obstacles, Parkour and Ref Pictures:

Apple Race

How fast is your horse? And how fast can the rider pick up an apple out of a water-bucket? With only their mouth? You may enter with kids (at least 14yo)!

This Class consists of three phases:
Phase 1: Race from Startline to the Middlesection
Phase 2: jump off your horse and grab an apple (with only the mouth! don't use your hands!)
Phase 3: Race from Middlesection to the Finishline (with the apple!)
You may draw any phase for the main entry, make sure the rider's face is dripping with water when heading towards the finishline! It will take place around 11am, the weather is all sunny with no clouds in the sky. The race will be held on a great field alongside a forrest, all the entrants will start at once. The black buckets will be standing on wooden barrels in the shadow of huge willows. Andrew will be around to make sure no rider is cheating by using their hands. Showing him and/or other entrants will give you extra points! Take care the horse won't eat the apple before arriving at the finishline! xD

Liquid Gold

The GSR staff loves Barrel Racing. And beer – you better not spill too much of this precious golden liquid along the race! Your rider will have to hold a glass of beer in one hand while finishing the parkour. Be quick, but don't spill too much x)
This fun race will take place in the afternoon, around 5pm. The sky is clear and the sun still shining all brightly. The parkour will consist of some wooden barrels on the training ground; and surrounded by a wooden fence. Drawing someone who is cheering at you from behind the fence will bring extra points!

Ref Pictures:
sta.sh/22f06b8cabca?edit=1

Water Dance

The last Show will be Dressage, held in the outdoor arena that will be filled with water. A fancy wooden fence is surrounding the place, the ground will be covered with a light blue tarp so it can contain water – it's only 25cm high. The water might irritate some horses, some might think it's fun! Remember: It's summer! The rider should wear some summer clothes or even just a bikini? The horse can be decorated as well.
It'll take place in the evening at 8pm. The sun is about to go down over the fields and will show a spectacular sunset! There might be some fog in the distance.
