Yuzuki 30 Posted February 14, 2012 Greetings, my fellow organization members! I'm GIM, and starting today, I am starting a Axel Drawing Contest! Here are the basics: -Draw a picture of Axel -It can be tradition or digital, just as long as it's Axel -You may only post 1 entry -MUST be appropriate for 2-year-olds -No pairing drawings. Just Axel. -Backgrounds are allowed -Colored is preferable -There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners -It has to be YOUR WORK. We don't accept stolen artwork! And that's it! Any questions can be sent personally to one of the judges. And speaking of judges... There are three judges: -Yuzuki -Lady Dreana -Rixku ~~~~~~ ...Yeah. That's all right now. Which brings up my next point! If you wish you be a judge, please message me personally. No requirements. Just as long as you're not indecisive and/or have bad taste. no longer in need^ Entries are accepted from 2/14/12-3/20/12 Winners will be announced 3/30/12 Thank you! please note: end date may be modified as judges see fit. and there's a slight possibility that the winner announcement might be delayed.

ssceles 134 Posted February 14, 2012 =P If you're asking for just Axel and already stating no pairings, you didn't need to go back emphasis 'no gay stuff'. It's highly offensive to me. It's unnecessary to even have that statement there. If you want to be a bigot go do it on your own time, thanks. As such, this lesbian will not be participating. So by saying 'no gay stuff' I'm going to take that as, me, not being straight, shouldn't participate anyway.Thanks for discriminating and have a nice day. edit: conflict resolved, yay =3 3 Godot, Shana09 and Koko reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was Dreana's note. My apologies! Some people are just not comfortable with that type of thing. If you wish to participate, please do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you wish to participate, please do. I might. =3 I draw straight pairings just as often as I draw shonen-ai ones and I have no problem with people wanting to only be exposed to straight pairings because they don't want to be made to feel uncomfortable. On the other hand, I grew uncomfortable because of the extra note because the contest had nothing to do with pairings. Had it to do with pairings to begin with, and then asked for straight pairings only, I would have been fine. I just found it slightly absurd. (It's not like if it had been a contest about straight only Axel pairings that I would have demanded to be allowed gayness in. It'd be hard to do a contest like that, anyway. Larxene's scary, and Xion and Namine both seem so young. I'm not even an AkuRoku fan. It'd just be easier to have a 'Axel hanging out with his friends' contest at that point with an extra note to 'keep it clean'.) 1 Yuzuki reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yuzuki 30 Posted February 20, 2012 Yeah, umm... I'm really considering changing the date. Perhaps it's best to give everyone more time. Wait, no. I'm getting things mixed up. DX Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xalaru 445 Posted February 20, 2012 So tempted to do this but if this forum is anything like deviantArt then I don't stand a chance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Number XV 490 Posted February 20, 2012 I would, but, I fail everytime at drawing Axel's hair. I'lll try, I guess. But, I mean, Axel's so hot, and I always get distracted. Mmm, Axel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuzuki 30 Posted February 22, 2012 So tempted to do this but if this forum is anything like deviantArt then I don't stand a chance. Haha There are good artists here but I don't pay too close attention to the images category to know how good they all are. It's worth a try, though, right?? ^-^ I would, but, I fail everytime at drawing Axel's hair. I'lll try, I guess. But, I mean, Axel's so hot, and I always get distracted. Mmm, Axel. Haha I guess it depends on what style you're using. I fail at hair all the time myself. Well if you decide to participate, do your best!! And try not to rush it too much.

Man you two are going to make it difficult for me to judge because I've seen a lot of your work and I love both of your galleries. I'm not gonna judge another Axel art contest. I'll do someone else though *shot* 1 Yuzuki reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
