Happy Birthday to me! :DWell it's a bit late to be saying this right now since it's almost April 12th but I was born at night anyhow so I just recently turned a year older in the past few hours. :3

Reboot: Magic Within me / Contest!If anyone who really has been a watcher on my da would know of a comic I did before I started to draw Ponies.
Magic Within me was about a girl named Lilac who gained a lamp and the genie fell in love with her.
That was the original plot which I came up with because at that moment It was about Disney Genie and how he really didn't have anyone else to love besides his girlfriend Eden who only appeared in two episodes and really wasn't a girlfriend at all, so I took this idea and gave him an oc to love.
Now I change this idea Magic within me is now set in an ruined world the year is 2010. The world were attacked by creatres called Angkin

Angkin used to fight along side the god's and be their beast forms but when years past by they turned against the gods and attacked the world. Angkin can take on he forms of humans which they learned from the gods.
Lilac used to be a modern girl who enjoys art.
Now Lilac is quite, sneaky, creative, loyal and calm.
Genie is still in this s

FIRST PLACE:

by: =Danimi
What the Judge's Were Saying A very clever choice of drawing a rat who wants to to be cook just like a human, and a former human who's now cooking as a frog! Haha. Very, very clever choice of characters with a humorous picture!

SECOND PLACE:

by: ~Azdaracylius
What the Judge's Were Saying: The idea that Merlin is giving the Fairy Godmother magic counseling over tea is hilarious. Not to mention, what Merlin says is quite clever because you never think about the midnight thing being an issue in the movie.

THIRD PLACE:

by: ~Nookleuh92
What the Judge's Were Saying: These two little guys are hideously unreprested in our group's gallery! We adored seeing Wart and Taran training with their magic swords together. Now that's adorable!

Featured Movie - Fan Favorite - The Lion KingThanks for voting in all those polls I put up!
The winner is...
The Lion King!
"The Lion King was considered a little movie because we were going to take some risks. The pitch for the story was a lion cub gets framed for murder by his uncle set to the music of Elton John. People said, 'What? Good luck with that.' But for some reason, the people who ended up on the movie were highly passionate about it and motivated."
~Don Hahn
The movie came out in 1994 and became the little movie that could! It was the highest grossing film of that year.

Since then there's been many re-releases of the movie, sequels, and even a Broadway musical based on it.
What's the movie about? Well, you're a Disney fan! Shouldn't you have seen it by now?

Prompt - "Caged Bird"Yes, I realize this is long overdue, and I apologize. For now, I'll try to keep them coming every Sunday.
As for last week's prompt of Carnival, I had a lot of trouble picking a featured piece. They were all so very wonderful. I finally settled on Carnival Love by ~BunnyFroofroo.
It just stirred some kind of emotion within me - that's all I can really say.
This week's prompt, if you couldn't tell, is "Caged Bird," since I've had this idea for a poem in my head, but couldn't really make use of it. So now I'm kind of dumping it on you guys, since I don't think I'll ever get around to it.
Have fun!

(P.S: Don't forget to include that it's for #Writing-to-Live's prompt. Otherwise, I won't know if you made it in answer to the prompt, or just accidentally submitted it to prompts.)

Weekly Prompt - CarnivalWell....
Prompt (week before last, wasn't it?) turnout was......very poor, at best. Not all the submissions are in the folder, for the simple reason that some who submitted had not mentioned the group, #Writing-to-Live, which is a requirement.
So, no featured prompt this week, as I find it unfair to choose between two pieces. A feature, however, for both of them? But of course.
and
This week's prompt is carnival. (Or, I suppose, festival, or fair, or whatever you usually call it.)
Oh, isn't that just a beautiful word? Take it and run with it, my friends, for it has potential. Lots of it. And it's yours to do with as you please.
But remember: submit to the "Weekly Prompts" folder, and make sure that you state, in your artist's comments (or wherever), that it was written for #Writing-to-Live's prompt, or we will not accept it.
Have fun!

October ContestHey everyone! So I decided to do another contest.
Rules:

Must be somehow related to Halloween or the month of October. Meaning you can have someone dressed up in a costume, have it Octoberfest related, or doing something evil.

THe main character in it must be Sith (canon or Oc, my Oc Masix is free to be used, but you must credit me for her), other non-sith characters can also be in it.

NO nudity or sexual scenes, but gore is welcome with this one.

If you cannot think of a good sith character or OC, you may use another character but they have to be turned to the dark side.

One entry per contestant and voting will be done by comments, you may only vote for one and you cannot vote for your own.

The deadline will be mid-November unless stated otherwise.

First prize will receive 10 points from me and a chibi drawing, second prize will receive 5 points and third will receive 3 points.
Happy d

FINAL DEADLINE OCTOBEROk guys, it's the 15th, but you know what? Christmas is early this year: We've decided to postpone the deadline ONE LAST TIME!

:iconlokidlaplz:
I'm in the middle of moving out and working on something important for university, so I won't have time to start on the artbook this month anyway. Thus, the definitely FINAL (no more excuses after that!

) deadline will be:
October 1st
This group has 165 members but there are only 32 deviations in the gallery.

What with the great news about Loki's role in Thor 2, I really hope people are getting excited about our theme now - please help us to get closer to our goal of 100 submissions!

Contest 23 - Historical Disney -WINNERS ANNOUNCED!

Journal Entry: Sat Jan 5, 2013, 12:04 PM

And the winners are...

In the Judge's Section:

Chosen by

First Place:

Give me your voice by =Khioora

What the judges were saying: "Khioora's piece definitely jumped out at me when I was first browsing through the entries- it's a striking illustration, granted, but I was also taken with the integration of both 1830's fashion, and Romantic period portrayals of mermaids with more delineated legs. I'm not a huge fan of fashion in the 1830's, but I'll be the first to admit that it's a blast to draw; I think Khioora did a great job of capturing the so-called "Waist and Extravagance" of the period with both her characters' overall silhouette, and her general detailing of the costume. Great stuff!"~ *shoomlah

Second Place:

Queen Kidagakash by *PissedArtwork

What the judges were saying: "*PissedArtwork's Queen Kidakagash is a lovely attempt to meld the disparate inspirations for Atlantis into a single, cultural costume"~ *shoomlah

"I love all the detail and research put into this rarely drawn Disney Princess!" ~*MistyTang

Third Place:

Tiana, Naveen, and Steamboat Willie by *MoonyMina

What the judges were saying: "I love the idea of Tiana and Naveen seeing a movie in the early days of movies - especially since the movie chosen just so happens to be Steamboat Willie! It's an excellent crossover true to the time Tiana and Naveen live in. The wedding rings are a great touch as this definitely take place a while after the movie does. ~*Zimeta

In the Popular Vote Section:

Chosen by popular vote of the members.

First Place:

Victorian Alice by ~crisquinu

Second Place:

La Belle by ~LaTaupinette

Third Place:

Robin Hood by ~thedodobirdsong

Runner-Ups

Those the judges and popular vote highly considered:

Thanks for entering, everyone! This contest was a blast!

You guys voted! And the next contest we'll be doing is "Historical Disney", inspired by *shoomlah's Historical Princess Collection!.

For this contest you'll be taking your favorite Disney movie/TV show/etc. and putting a historical spin on it. Whether that be clothing, a historical place, or even an event, it's up to you!

For more information, read on!

- Your picture doesn't have to be of a princess. Anything Disney is okay.

- Any Disney movie/TV show/Video game/comic is just fine. You're free to choose whatever you want!

- Any medium is fine (Traditional, digital, literature is all okay)

- There are several ways you can put a historical spin on your entry. Here are some:

Make the clothes of your chosen character more accurate to history in the time period it's set.

If the character you want to draw is already accurate to history (example: TRON took place and was made in the '80s, so the clothing is already accurate) then you can draw them in historically accurate clothes from the era that weren't featured in the movie.

Draw the characters in a historical locale. Example: The Princess and the Frog takes place in 1920s New Orleans. If you can draw the characters from the film at a locale special to that time and place, be our guest!

Draw the characters at a historical event special to their time and place. Examples: civil rights movement, WWII, etc.

Draw your chosen character in the style of an artist at the time your chosen movie takes place.

Other? Go ahead and ask in a comment!

For writers: The best option would probably be to depict your chosen characters at an historical event.

- Crossovers are fine, but you must keep your crossovers restricted to within three fandoms.

- Our regular group rules still stand. No Kingdom Hearts, ABC shows, or Marvel characters unless they're accompanied by a regular Disney character.

- Your artwork must be new. Only works created after this contest was put up (01-05-13) will be accepted.

- No fan pairings. All pairings must be canonical.

- No gender bending

- Keep it clean. No nudity, gore, or nipples poking through clothes. NO FETISHES!

- Don't use screenshots in your work. All the art you submit must be completely made by you.

- You may enter the contest even if you're not a member. Comment in this journal with a link to your entry when you're done so I can add it here.

- And please be aware it can take up to a day for us to list your entry here/ accept it into the group. We have about 10,000+ members, so it takes us a little bit of time to get through all our messages. If you've been waiting for more than a day and a half, THEN you can send us a note and ask what's up.

- When the contest is over, we'll put up a journal with all the entries on it, and the members will vote on which one they think is best. And, a panel of judges will decide on six other winners.

- You're allowed TWO entries.

- Please submit your entry to our Contest 23 - Historical Disney folder in our gallery!

- If you have any additional questions, either comment here, note the club, or note one of the owners, (*MistyTang or *Zimeta)

March 25th, 2013.
There will be no extensions unless up to half the people who've entered at the time of the due-date ask for an extension. So, no; an extension is not likely.

Use your time wisely!

Panel of Judges

Judges may enter the contest, but they will only be eligible to win in the Popular Vote section.

We chose our winners by creativity, originality and personality more than artwork. So, be sure to stretch your imagination!

How to Gain Favor with the Judges

- Descriptions on this one are VERY important! We want to know all about your historical subject and where you got your inspiration/references. Your work won't have to be 100% accurate to history, but your inspiration is key to your success for this contest.

- Be creative! The best artwork will not necessarily win. Think out of the box, and go wild!

- We will not choose anyone who traces an image from a screenshot or another artist. Take an original view, or use your own style to make your artwork unique.

- Put effort into your work. You don't have to be the best artist for your effort to show. Believe me, we can tell.

- Make a scene! There's nothing more boring to us than a bunch of characters standing around. Bring it to life!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

Three prizes will be given by popular vote, and three will be given by our panel of judges.

If you're interested in doing a prize request for one of the winners, just note the club or comment here!
If you're willing to donate a subscription to one of the winners, just let us know! ^0^

You may still enter the contest even if you want to give a prize, too.

Hi there! I submitted my entry a few hours before the deadline and I'm a little concerned it hasn't gone through and won't be counted. There are pieces that were accepted after mine was submitted and I'm just crossing my fingers someone reads this and counts my entry

*Zimeta Mar 26, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Ah, I see. You submitted it to the wrong folder. I'll go move it for you and add it.

*tyleramato Mar 26, 2013 Student Digital Artist

Eeep! My bad! Thank you so much

*CherishTree Mar 26, 2013 Hobbyist

Can we have a delay to wednesday ? It would be only one day, just so I can finish my entry ?

*Zimeta Mar 26, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I'm sorry, that would be unfair to those who struggled to finish in time. Plus, I wrote very clearly that there would be no extensions, and I don't want to lie to the members.

*CherishTree Mar 26, 2013 Hobbyist

Okay okay no prob

that was a very interesting contest anyway

~Asisko4 Mar 25, 2013

Hi, I submitted my drawing some time ago, but it's not confirmed yet, I hope that this counts as submission on time
