Custom(ish) design event! Submissions end on the 20th
🕑 Added 2025-03-15 18:47:42 +0000 UTCFelt like trying something different this time :3
The idea of this event, summarized:
You send me a picture of something cool, and I use it as a reference and turn it into a new character! I'll use a lot of artistic freedom and it might end up looking crazy, but we'll see :D
The example pics are quite old and crappy, I can probably do better by now. I'll pick 1-3 winners! If I end up picking multiple winners, the results might be sketchier/messier than usual.
In order to participate, please post a comment including:
1. Your picture(s)! The picture can be from the internet or taken by you, and it can be an item, a pretty scenery, a ridiculous looking dog, or even an entire moodboard, it's up to you! It should be a photograph though, not a drawing. If you want to send multiple pictures, it would be best if you compiled them into a single photo (you can use Paint or this nifty website). You can upload the pics on Imgur or Imgchest and share that link here.
2. Other details: if you have a specific species, body type, gender etc. in mind, you can mention it here! I'll use artistic freedom for the rest of the character.
3. Do you want it to be NSFW or SFW?
Rules:
• Don't use drawings a reference, it should be a photograph
• Post your entry as a comment to this post
• Only one entry per person
• My TOS contest prize section will apply to the design
Submit your entry in the comments by the 20th of this month (using -12UTC, the last timezone in the world). I'll start working on them after that, and I'll try to post them by the end of the month!

They're really neat. 1. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1k-cKsCO1QEPNTVbKYQI36nAWy7B23y0r/view?usp=sharing 2. Female with a shy disposition. Whatever species you think fits is fine by me. 3.

LunarLiv

kriojnes
1) https://www.imgchest.com/p/n87wlkxmzyx Bread! 2) Woman kobald seems very fitting. Scoring/glazing of the crust can show up as patterning on coat, the seeds like freckles (ref had white seeds but black could work just as well) and while no necessary dictation- a highlight colour for the pallet could come from a or jam/cream thing (could be any colour of jam) 3) NSFW please
Obsidian
1 - Something inspired by outrageous (and perhaps kinky) bimbo heels https://imgur.com/a/OGZkCL8 2 - How about a slender female kobold? But if you get inspired please go crazy ^_^ 3 - NSFW, but again, if you get hit by inspiration rays, go for it :D
SammyCat
1. https://imgur.com/a/ESVUsW6 Jellyfish are cool and bioluminescence is cooler 2. Female please 3. NSFW
A Sentient Cookie
1) https://imgur.com/a/rz38inw Pictures taken by me throughout my walks and garden. 2) Kobold, Female, An ethereal/radiant Kobold. Sun and Moon with Flowers. 3) SFW, similar to the Kobolds you've drawn when they go on auction. Where it shows their bodies and patterns and light clothing. I'd imagine akin to Semi-SFW.
nightstar6
Ive got a kintsugi character.
Nurgle
1: https://imgchest.com/p/xny83gozp4b Kintsugi is neat. 2: Have you ever done a bat? A bat would be cool. Otherwise, anything is fine, preferably female. 3: NSFW or lightly dressed would better show off the pattern.

A nsfw thing inspired by this would be wonderful! I prefer female :3 https://f2.toyhou.se/file/f2-toyhou-se/images/31246738_mG3FgEEEkNbrAqn.png?1663683037
