Winner Update December 1st:

We finally decided on the winners! It was a hard choice, but here they are!!!

3rd Place goes to :iconart-by-ling:
fav.me/d6tpot6

For a cute and thoughtful idea. They look very sweet, and it looks like a photograph with the blurry background ^^

2nd Place goes to :iconlohkk:

For a cute interaction between the two friends, and a nice halloween-y feel ^^

And now to the 1st Place!

Congratulations to

:iconswanlullaby:
Scary Mask by SwanLullaby

For an adorable and fun picture of the two friends!! The interaction is fun, and captured their personalities very well.

The background and the cute details made it a clear winner. The scarecrow on Dust's horn was a fun and awesome add that had me laugh, and the scary mask was an awesome centerpiece. It made both of us think about discord for some reason xD


Now, there is no such thing as a loser in our contests!

We added an honorable mention as well as a booby prize.


Honorable mention goes to

:iconpuppet-poppet:

For giving us a good laugh at their silly expressions, and the description that made it come to life :)

Prize: 1 month premium membership
2 chibis from MsDinoGoat


Booby prize goes to

:iconsssilveth:

It was an adorable piece, and we had a hard time deciding who got the third place. They both had cute ideas and were well done.

Prize: 2 Chibis from MsDinoGoat


Edit November 20th: 11hrs, 40 minutes left guys!! Don't miss out!

Edit Oct.23: We decided to give you a little more time to work so we added 10 days :) you now have until the 20th of November instead of the 10th. Now get those gears turning!

It's been a while, but me and :iconmsdinogoat: are holding a contest together again :D

The theme is, as you can see - HALLOWEEN!

You can draw our two characters shown below in any halloween scene you see fit - e.g. Pumpkin Carving, Trick-or-Treating, scaring people, cooking.... whatever you think they would do on Halloween :)

Be sure to read their descriptions to get an idea of their personalities and powers :)

Mini info: Scarf/tie can be any color and he is not "tied" to this particular one. The bell is always there on this particular scarf, but is optional on other scarves you might wanna add.

They are both the same size, here's a size reference with cherry in it so see approx. how big they are:

Q&A

Q: Can I join?
A: Of course! Anyone can join :) (Smile)

Q: May I draw other OC's with yours?
A: Yes, as long as they don't "take over" the image; meaning, Dust and Cherry are confined to the background and your characters are in the front taking over the image. After all, this is a contest for our characters.

Q: I don't draw, can I write something instead?
A: Not at this time. You may add a story together with an image though.

Q: Ok, so can I ask someone to draw an image to go with my story?
A: Yes, but you need to upload the story together with the picture. Judging will be of the entirety of the entry, meaning if you win you would have to share the prize(s).

Q: How many times can I enter?
A: As many as you want, but you can only win once.

Q: NSFW?
A: No

Q: Can I draw them in anthro?
A: Cherry is a shapeshifter, so she can be any form you would like to draw. However, Dust is strictly Quad.

Q: How will the winners be decided?
A: Me and MsDinoGoat will be judging. We will choose from effort and originality, as well as composition.

Q: I have another question.
A: Comment and I'll answer
