I AM SUPER EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE A NEW CONTEST! This contest will be forrrrrrrrrrrr *drum roll*

A GROUP CALENDAR

SO, here's how it works. The idea is to make a calendar full of OC's, and not *just* OCHomeBase's mascot, BUT YOUR VERY OWN! Now we need to make sure we have entrants for every month of the year, so here's the rules:
:bulletgreen: You have to comment on this journal with the word "Entering", if you don't say "entering" and comment on it, I will not consider you as entering the contest. If you DO say "Entering" and whatever else you may need to get off your chest, i.e "Entering. And flapping my arms like a squid." [It's okay you can confide in us] then I will message you back with the month you will be doing. Everyone will get their months based on which order they enter in, for instance the first person to comment "entering" on this journal will get January and so on. You are to only use ORIGINAL CHARACTERS, NO FANDOMS. You may use the group Mascot if you would like.
:bulletblue: Added to the month theme, I thought any average month-related theme was a bit boring and of the norm, so I will be adding some cultural theme's to each month. [Because for instance, December and an OC in santa clause clothes is way to easy and cliche, this group is about originality!] It's time to get creative! So here are the months and their respective theme's:

:bulletorange: January - USA [United States Of America] Food theme.
:bulletorange: February - Russian Spy theme
:bulletorange: March - French Tourist/City lover theme
:bulletorange: April - Chinese garden theme
:bulletorange: May - India[n] [from India, not a native american of the US] Bride/wedding theme
:bulletorange: June - Mexican Birthday/Quinceañera theme
:bulletorange: July - German chocolate theme
:bulletorange: August - African wildlife theme
:bulletorange: September - United Kingdom/"British" orchestra theme
:bulletorange: October - Japanese festival theme
:bulletorange: November - Italian frozen dessert theme
:bulletorange: December - Greek Bakery


Granted you might have to do a tiny bit of research, but that only makes it more fun!
I don't have full scale prizes yet, so I am using this journal to reach out to any possible prize givers, and I need 2-3 more judges. So far I know this:
We will choose an ultimate first prize winner, regardless of what month they did, we will choose a favorite, and they will get a free copy of the entire calendar put together -- Yes, I mean a real calendar. By entering this contest you agree that I have the right to create this calendar by whatever means necessary, however not without credit being put where it's due! Which brings me to another rule that ALL CALENDAR PAGES MUST HAVE A WATERMARK AND ARTIST SIGNATURE ON IT. The calendar will only be given away to the ultimate first placer, and will not be available for re-sale afterwards. I'm sorry :c The ultimate first placer also gets a full drawing of the OC of their choice by me, full line-art and color, and a speed paint of me working on it uploaded to youtube.

An ultimate second place will be granted a full line-art by me, and future contributions will be updated in this journal.

An ultimate third place is granted a sketch of a bust of any one of their oc's by one of our fellow group members.

Again all prizes are not currently in order, but will be shortly. If you feel uneasy about this don't worry, again, there will be plenty of prizes soon. c:

All the "non-winning" calendar page artists will still receive a full body sketch from me and a feature here in the OCHomeBase Journal for our 2000+ members to see, because you're all winners and all awesome! Any questions or comments, please feel free to ask or say something, and/or enter the contest :D It'll be fun, I promise!

EDIT: So in case you're a bit confused, we finally have enough entrants for every month, and I will post who next to their respective month.

I tried asking this on the correspondence message, but for some reason it wouldn't let me.

I requested to affiliate your group with :iconskyrim-ocs:, but it was declined. Why was this? Did I miss a rule somewhere concerning affiliates? Because I can't find anything. :confused:

The group has recently been passed down to new management, and I'm sorry but we are now more centered on original OC's as apposed to fandoms.

Understood, thank you for explaining. :) I shall remove affiliations with my groups that are fandom-centric, as well as remove all fan character deviations of mine from this group, to help you build this new image. :) Sorry for the trouble, and thank you for taking the time to respond to me. ^^

^^; I sneezed when I submitted my deviation "Melody Iaconno's birthday" to the group. Could you please move it to "anime and manga" for me? Thank you.
