Summer themed Skin Contest!
Hello! I invite you to join my Summer themed Skin Contest! There will be three rounds, the first one being a topic, the second round being a palette, and the third round being a skin to shade. Everyone that passes to the next round will be PMed the next round's challenge.
The first round will start on July 6 and will run to July 16. The first round's theme is 'Daydreams' or 'Daydreaming' Interpret the theme as you'd like, but still keep hints to the theme. (An example of a skin not keeping to theme would be, "A casual girl." and your excuse cannot be "She's daydreaming.") Entries cannot be entered during the two days of judging.
After the round has ended, the three judges and I will take two days (So for round one, July 17 and 18 will be judging days.) Then the third day (July 19) will be the announcements on who makes it to the next round. If the expected amount of people join, (10) then we will have 4 people disqualified on round one, 3 people disqualified on round two, and then the final 3 will battle it out on round three.
Rules of the Contest - All PMC rules apply.
IMPORTANT:
If you message me saying that you're not going to make a submission for the round, then you're automatically disqualified. Better luck next time! D:
If we get a large amount of people joining the contest (We're expecting 10 to join, so more than ten would be "a large amount.") then we'll divide the group of contestants into three categories. (You've probably seen this before.)
Beginner - No use of shading, use of shading, or basic shading.
Intermediate - Use of a more complicated shading, hints of knowledge on color theory.
Expert - Use of an even more complicated shading, knowledge on color theory.
Of course, we'll divide you up into what we think fits you. (But if you disagree, PM one of the judges.) Not all of the categories may be used.
Prizes
After those three rounds, there has to be a prize, right? So, if it's the regular ten people joining, there will be a first, second, and third. If we have to divide the contestants up into categories, then depending on the amount of people in the category, there will be a first second and a third as well.
First - Two requests, (The first-place winner chooses who to take the two requests from.) 15 diamonds on the 15 most recent skins.
Second - One request, (The second-place winner chooses from the remaining judges who to take the request from.) 10 diamonds on the 10 most recent skins.
Third - One request (The third-place winner chooses from the remaining two judges who to take the request from.) 5 diamonds on the 5 most recent skins.
We will put skins for rounds one, two, and three in a collection. This just makes it easier to judge. ^-^

Sorry, we've moved you into the beginner group instead. Remember, you can always message me if you think you belong in intermediate.
2
hey! this might be a bit late but can I join? i would definitely say i'm around like a very low intermediate level?

ATTENTION: Because we got more people than we expected to join this contest, we will divide up the contestants into their respective groups. Don't think you belong in the group you were put in? Message me and we'll talk about it.

Umm... CaelChan yours is REALLY GOOD but hehe it’s actually what I just made on the airplane when I got bored for the comp. Then when I came back to check, I had WIFi and saw yours. I hope it doesn’t bother you we had similar ideas. I never intended to have the same idea as you even though yours came out first.

Ooooh can i join??

I’d love to enter!

I am so joining! This will be fun <3
Also, I will be making the skin on my iPad sadly because I’m in vacation and I might remake in when I come back. So it will be a bit hard for me

Heyo!~ I may have only made one skin so far, but I plan on making more, I think I'll join this competition. That being said, I'm probably going to need some help submitting skins, and the PMs. Thanks!~
