So I have recently commissioned

to do some chibi's of our favorite characters from
A Broken Winter . So far everyone seems to have enjoyed Chibi Reisen. He even made it on the second page of the most popular in 8 hours

. I know this isn't as big of a deal as if he were on the first page. But it does mean that our efforts are paying off!
I have 2 more of Kuroda and Kokkan in the works now, so you can expect to see them SOON! I will also be requesting that Kai color each of these chibis as time goes by.

Contest!
First of all, I want to make clear that this is only a Fan Club contest. Nothing offical, just something to get everyone more envolved in this Club. The prizes will not be as good as you might find on any contest being held on the Offical DA.
I am stressing this because I do not wan't to take anyone's attention from the Offical DA itself. So it's important that I make this clear.
Anyone can submit! ANYONE!

.

Rules

This contest will begin once I have uploaded all three commissioned Chibi's, Kuroda, Kokkan, and Reisen. You can choose your favorite, or color all three as a set. If you choose to color all three and submit them as a set, then they will be viewed as individual submissions. You can submit as many times as you'd like, but only ONE submission will win from each applicant. If you submit all three and all three win, the prizes stand as is.
This contest will be based on
Accuracy : How well you've done your homework in regards to how each character is supposed to look. There are certain key elements that will grant you a winning spot. You can find reference images on the offical DA. If you are unsure of something, please feel free to ask. I don't want to leave anyone in the dark! D:
Creativity: Pretty much anything goes. You can use whatever means you wish to color these with.
Effort: How much time and attention to detail you have put into your work. It should show in your final product. Regardless if it took you three hours or three days. Put your best effort forward!

What you MUST do.
All applicants must do the fallowing, or you will automatically be disqualified.

Post a link to the fan club. As I stated before this is a Fan Club contest, not an offical one. People have to know that the work you are coloring, is not offical works, but fan based.

Duration?
I'm thinking about two months. Since these are not as detailed as the offical colouring contest being held.
If you think I should hold it for longer, then let me know XD.
As stated before, this contest will offically begin once I have submitted the other two chibi's, Kokkan and Kuroda. I will post another blog letting everyone know exactly when it starts.
You are welcome to color the first Chibi, Reisen, to get a head start ^~^.

Where to submit.

Since this is a Group, all members can submitt their work to this gallery. But they must be submitted to the Chibi Contest folder. This will allow me to keep a better collection of all the entries and judge them accordingly.
Now for the best part!

Prizes!

All winning and even none-winning submissions will remain on this gallery once submitted. So if you win or loose, your work will be featured here ^~^.
Also anyone is more then welcome to color these of your own free time! Even if it is not a contest submmission. If it is not a contest submission, then please submit it to the Featured folder.

All prizes are funded by myself. I am sorry if these prizes are not as great. But as I stated before, I do not want any contest that I am holding to distract our viewers from the Offical Site. So I'm keeping the prizes simple. And since this is our first contest, I'm also not sure what I can offer as suitable prizes. In the future I hope to be able to offer more as more contests come.
Good luck! And may the best win!
Your fearless leader
