Default Contest: Drawing Eachother Fairytales



About and Rules:

This contest is a combination of the 2 winning themes; Fairytales - Drawing each other.

We pair up and do a portrait/drawing of our partner. It can be everything from realistic portraits to fantasy portraits, mixing the fairytales into the drawing as well.
However you choose to portrait your partner is up to you, though it might be a good idea to talk to your partner about which style you do it in beforehand, maybe just to avoid disappointment.
Note: If you take part in this contest you agree to do your part, as it's not fair to your partner not to.

The Prizes and Categories:

The prizes will be given in 5 different categories. We all vote for our favourite in each category at the end of the contest.


The categories are as follows:

● Most Realistic Representation - How recognizable is your partner in your artwork? This is the category for most realistic and traditional artwork.

● Most Creative Representation - How creative are you when it comes to depicting your partner? This could very well be in your normal style if you are a fantasy artist.

● Most Abstract Representation - Something you haven't seen a 1,000 times before, this isn't your typical portrait.

● Most Compatible Pair - This is given to a pair that has managed to put their themes together. Their individual artworks compliment each other as a whole.

● Honourable Mention - This goes to a single person who has, despite skill level, done their best and has shown something special in their efforts.

The prizes are as follows:

Most realistic representation:

3 postcards + 1 bookmark from Zindy
4x6" Print of Choice from Lauren + "Whispered Word's" Postcard

If you write your name in the thread, those that still wish to take part we can match you up or you can suggest pair up yourself

I'd love to pair up and if you are both participating, I remember you both liked the Clown/Circus theme. Just a suggestion

I meant in general that people should write their name so we know who takes part and then the pair up can begin. Not sure how many are still interested in taking part since it's been a while.

I think this would be lots of fun! I'm almost out of school so I'll have a lot more time to draw... I asked Debbie if she wanted to partner up with me, now just waiting for a response.
