Yay!

I decided to announce a contest. My Poll showed that many of you are interested :3 that makes me very very veeeeeeeery happy! This is a Christmas-themed Contest. The winners get their Prizes as presents for Christmas!! :3
So I hope there'll be maaaany many many contestants >w<
Here's the task


TASK

Your task is to draw your most favourite couple (can be yaoi, yuri or "normal" XD) on christmas eve.

This is a pretty general task, but I think it's much more fun when you can play with your creativity. You can draw them giving presents to each other, dressed as Santa Clause and Rudolph or whatever comes to your mind.

Your art can be traditional or digital, it's up to what you prefer.
You don't have to draw a background. The most important fact is that everything fits together. If the atmosphere is dark and angsty, then a detailed Christmas-tree background wouldn't fit at all.

You can as well add more than one entry, but you shouldn't hurry for the quality becomes bad.
The drawing has to be done for the contest. This means you shouldn't have uploaded it before this contest, k? But of course it's okay, when you already started drawong something that perfectly fits this contest's task .

Sexual themes are allowed. But the drawing shouldn't be too extreme. kisses and cuddles, as well as sexual adumbrations are allowed, but no porn (explicit sexual acts).

DEADLINE

Deadline is December 20th 2009

I want to give you enough time to draw something very good but I won't extend the deadline, because I think it's frustrating when you hurry to finish your drawing in time and then you find out, that you suddenly did all in vain.

Besides this, I want to give you your Prizes on December 25th (or 24th when you're from Europe ), and for this, I need a little time


JUDGING

The Judges are


Judging will be based on:
- Composition (pose, angle, colors, atmosphere)
