People still can enter this contest if they wish. Thank you all for entering, and submitting such wonderful entries so far! <3

OVERVIEW
So this is going to be a contest celebrating 2 years on deviantART! :D I've wanted to hold a contest for a while, and I now think I have enough knowledge and points to do so

RULES
For this contest, I want you to draw at least one of my characters doing something with at least one of your characters
They can be partying, hanging out, or whatever, be creative! c:
You can use traditional or digital media for this contest
You can enter as many times as you want, but it won't increase your chances of winning, and only one piece of artwork per person can place
You CAN draw my characters as anthros/humans if you're more comfortable with that
No lineart/stolen artwork, everything must be your own!!

JUDGING
I will be judging everything based off of
:bulletblue: Creativity (both of the scenario, and what the characters are doing in said scenario)
:bulletblue: Accuracy, I'm gonna judge very harshly on this subject, since it's one of my biggest pet peeves when people mess up on stuff like this (by accuracy I mean when your drawing my characters, is what they're doing accurate to their personality. And also if marking/accessories are accurate)
:bulletblue: Effort
:bulletblue: Artistic abilities (More of a minor thing, but still counts)
:bulletblue: If near the end of the contest, there's a character of mine that hasn't been drawn at all, you will get more points if you include them in an entry!

I will NOT be judging you by
:bulletred: The amount of characters you do/don't draw, as well as which characters you do/don't draw
:bulletred: What type of media you use (digital or traditional)
:bulletred: Whether or not you draw a background
