Pumpkin Decorating
Contest!


Welcome to our Halloween special!


A lot of you may already be familiar with the tradition of pumpkin carving as part of the Halloween celebrations? To enter this contest, instead of carving a pumpkin, you will need to decorate a pumpkin template using either an art program (if you have one that you are familiar with using), or if you wish you can colour them in the traditional way using colour pencils/pens and either scan, or take a photo of the picture to upload.



Templates

Choose a template:

With transparent background


With white background






Prizes



Mystery Plush (who could this be?)


Wayvern Plush


Chickenraptor Plush


150 Commission Coupons


Legendary item of choice


All members with a valid entry will receive a contest badge for entering





RULES:

  • Entry thread is here: Entry Thread. Your entry needs to be posted in the entry thread to be included in the contest.
    Note: You can use the gallery to upload your finished image and then post it in the entry thread. Please remember to use the "Contest Artwork" category for your work


  • Only one entry per person.


  • Please do not edit your entry post once posted, I will be saving the entries onto a google form throughout the contest, edited posts will not be revisited.


  • The theme is "Pixpets", please make sure your entry falls within that theme.


  • Re-sizing of the template is allowed.


  • Entries can be digital or traditional drawings.


  • You are allowed to use Pixpet images in your entry, but remember to be imaginative, and always follow Pixpets rules when it comes to using images.


  • NO plagiarism is accepted, this means that you cannot take another person’s artwork and claim it as your own, either in part, or as a whole in your entry.


  • Closing date for entries is Halloween night, Thursday 30th October, at midnight (UTC / GMT)




  • When the entry stage closes, Pixpet staff will be invited to vote for their favourite pictures on the google form where all valid entries have been saved. Staff can enter the contest, however they won’t be able to be part of the judges who vote for the winner if they do. Once the voting stage is over I will announce the winners here and give out the prizes.

@bunny, you can put things on the pumpkin if you wish, for example a Unicubb horn which will change the silhouette, hats etc, as long as the image in essence remains a pumpkin

Just one week left to get your entries in. I hope you are all getting creative and decorating them pumpkins?

You can carve and add to the pumpkin template.

Just remember, if the judges do not think that your pumpkin fits the theme, they could vote it out of the contest, so please make sure your pumpkin is Pixpet themed.

Edit:
Sneak peak at the contest badge coming soon.

Waaait wait wait hold on, before i get too carried away, how much are we allowed to alter the pumpkin template?

Say, for instance, I cut it in half and rotated the halves, or stretched them out longer, would that be allowed? :o

Don’t go butchering the poor pumpkin too much! Let’s just say you can carve a pattern, or carve off 30% max.

I think there's a potential spelling error It says prices instead of prizes?

@Wayvern
Does the entry need to be posted in the pixpet gallery or can it be hosted on an external site such as imgur then embedded via the IMG tag? I can't draw whatshowever, but an attempt was made. I'd rather not be reminded of my terrible art outside of the event
(P.s. I hope those types of entries are allowed for those who want to participate but can't draw well.)

Yes, that is okay. I only mentioned the gallery as it will be easier for most people to use.
