Aquatic Album

It’s a scorching hot summer day at camp and you’re getting ready to take a dip in the ocean to catalog the wonderful fishies of the deep. You jump in, complete with your wet suit and for some reason, high heels and a non-waterproof straw hat. You soon realise that life at camp doesn’t work the same way as game logic. Your aquatic critterpedia is… drenched?! I guess we’re going to have to work together to fill it up once again!

  • Please do not draw additional accessories or anything that would not "belong" on a fish. The drawing must stay true to life as close as possible. Backgrounds are allowed, but the fish must also belong in that environment (eg. you can draw the fish underwater but not floating through the milky way in space). Remember, this is a critterpedia entry!
  • You may stylise your fish but make sure that it is true to life. Eg. A cartoonish tadpole would be accepted but a rainbow coloured tadpole would not be.
  • Include your TBT username somewhere in the drawing.
  • In your submission, include what fish you have drawn (eg. I am submitting a Sea Bass)
  • You may only submit one drawing. You may not edit your submission unless otherwise asked by the host.
  • Drawings may be drawn digitally or traditionally.
  • Your drawing must be made by you (no pre-made renders, photographs, no tracing, etc.) and should have a reasonable amount of effort put into it. We should be able to easily identify what fish you have drawn. No goldfish crackers, please.
  • Entries will be approved by staff periodically using the "accepted" reaction.
Please submit your entries to this thread by 6:59pm EDT on Sunday August 22th. Late entries will not be accepted.

Point System 🐠


Each cabin will have a 'critterpedia score', determined by Fish Points (FP). These are separate from the points used in the camp, and are just for this event! Each fish submitted will contribute to the cabin's critterpedia score as follows:

1 Fish Point (FP) for submitting a drawing of a fish.
+1 FP for adding a new fish to the critterpedia (eg. A fish type that has not been submitted yet)

Additionally, extra bonus FP will be awarded if certain criteria are met, seen in the spoiler below. Coordinate with your cabin mates to see which bonuses you can achieve!

Fish Favourites 🐠



In addition to earning points for your cabin, there will also be community-decided favourites for this event! To vote, simply leave a reaction (like/love) on the post of any drawing you think deserves a fishy favourite. While you can react to any entry, favourites will be determined by members of the same cabin. Entries that are approved will be marked by the staff with the accepted reaction, but don't wait for this to appear. Feel free to Like/Love any entries at any time!

While you can react to any entry, favourites will be decided only by votes from members of the same cabin.

Prizes 🐠


Participants who submit an accepted submission will receive:
  • 20 Ocean Tokens
  • 20 Cabin Points
The top 3 cabin favourites will earn an additional 8 Ocean Tokens. The top 1 will also receive a Rainbow Jellyfish Collectible.

In addition, if at least 60 FP is earned by a cabin, 200 points will be awarded to the cabin. There will be no extra points if you surpass 60 FP.

Submission Checklist 🐠


Before submitting your entry to this thread, make sure you:

✅ Included your TBT username in your image
✅ Mentioned what fish you've drawn
✅ Are submitting only one entry
✅ Are posting your submission to this thread
✅ It is before 7:00pm EDT, Sunday August 22th 2021.

Regarding this rule:
  • You may stylise your fish but make sure that it is true to life. Eg. A cartoonish tadpole would be accepted but a rainbow coloured tadpole would not be.
Would you say a poison dart frog is still representative of a frog, even though it doesn't match the Animal Crossing default? It's a real frog:

This would be fine! As long as your drawing represents a fish or species of fish (in this case frog) it will count! If you think your colourisation might be obscure for me to get, you can also attach a photo in a spoiler of what you drew.
 
Say… does it have to be shaded in multiple colors or is monochromatic drawings fine too? I unfortunately only have access to a ballpoint pen lol as my only physical/digital art tool at hand.
 
EDIT: Since it seems that I initially misunderstood how this activity goes and I won't in fact need NH, I'll be joining after all! :)

Anyway, mates, go ahead and blind me again with your amazing artistic skills! :LOL: I'll be stalking!
