Judges-
:iconmahohaku::iconyanguchitzure:
Judging is based on-

:bulletred:Effort-Did you scribble this or spend some time on it? Put in your best effort?:star:
:bulletred:Composition- Is there emotion action that makes this piece rather pleasing to look at? :star:
:bulletred:Portraying the character accurately-omg this is my character! :star:
:bulletred:Color and Background- Background and color is required but how well did they work to your advantage? :star:

Prizes Currently

:bulletred:All winners and 1 runner up will get their art reblogged on the Carnival Web Comic official blog here [link]

:star:1st- 700 points, and a colored chibi from ~Yanguchitzure ((3 month membership))

:star:2nd- 400 points, and a lineart chibi from ~Yanguchitzure ((1 month membership))

:star:3rd- 100 points, and a sketch from ~Yanguchitzure ((1000 points))



OC Entries

The character would be a cameo not really too big to the plot but I will draw them. If the character was entered he/she/it would have to be some sort of entertainer. A freak, acrobat, illusionist, strongman, bearded lady, knife thrower, assistant of some kind. Anyone who would help fill in some occupational gaps. The personality is up to you but I'm sure I'll have them working and interacting with other cameo characters.


Fanart Entries

Art that includes an OC and a cannon Carnival character or just cannons goes into this category. Both categories are competeing for the prize. There will only be 1 first place prize, 1 second and 1 third though.

Hello =D I was looking through your awesome gallery and came across your art for Cirque Du Clidestinite...(did i spell that right? o.O) and it looks really interesting! I was wonder if you would tell me more about it...? I saw that you said it was a web comic and I was wondering where you can/will be able to read/buy it? :eager:
Thanks =)

Thank you for taking the time to look through my gallery :iconhappytearsplz:

Story Description: Cirque Du Clandestinite is the Circus of Secrets. The main characters are the Scarlet Angel, Senna Hale who finds herself trapped there. The young Acrobat Bobby Fayland and the Ringmaster William Siff. Basically the Carnival exists in it's own realm from which no one has escaped to that point. The carnival existed in this realm for more than 150 years. The newcomers goals which includes a knife thrower named Huck who's from America would have to solve the riddle which is the Ringmaster, undo the curse and free every trapped soul. They have to do this all the while avoiding getting in trouble with the Ringmasters rule.

I hope to get quite a bit of action and mystery into this comic. A little bit of romance and a lot of character and story development. Not to mention slight animation portions if my flash and Photoshop fancy the pages in that way. I also have the comic plotted out for two seasons as well. Two series of comics with 5 chapters each from beginning to end. I might make a third series but it depends on how much it's enjoyed.

I will be posting Circus of Secrets on Smackjeeves here >[link]

:iconthankyouplz: I hope to have the comic out soon despite life slapping me in the face every time I do a relevant comic page.

This is my only posted page and it's really out of context because it is later on in the story [link]... Unfortunately I just wanted to draw Senna...

As are yours :D *Love your avatars ♥*

I was actually going to ask if you could do two avatars for me once I have a reference for both the characters. :dummy: And I would pay in points if that were okay at the given time.
