Feliz Navidad, y'all :). I don't know about you, but I'm totally in the Christmas spirit after browsing Walmart for some ugly sweaters, so I've decided to make an art contest about them here on TBT! So, here, I present to you, Koopasta's Holly Jolly Christmas Contest

The Contest
So, basically, your job for this contest is to draw my main OC (and my Splatoon OC), Yulia, wearing an ugly sweater that you've designed! You can take inspiration from designs on the internet, but please don't rip one straight from Google images. I'm looking for originality in this contest! Go ahead! Go crazy! I'm not judging on how good you are at drawing- I'm solely judging the design of your sweater! On December 25th, whenever the contest ends, I'll look through the entries. Myself, along with a friend, will look at each entry and decide which sweater is the best! That lucky person will win 1,000 TBT! Exciting! So, the process goes like this:
-From December 1 to December 12, signups will be open. Please do not submit art during this period. In fact, I recommend you do not start, since I will only continue with the contest if we get enough entries. I'm aiming to have at least 10 entries, but 7 is the minimum amount.
-From the end of signups until 3:00 PM ET on December 25th, you can make your art and sumbit it to me, koopasta, via PM. Please have a link to your art on a website such as imgur. I will not look at your art until December 25th. I'll go into the judging completely blind.
-Sometime on December 25th or 26th, I will message the winner via PM and also announce the winner on this post. Once the winner confirms, I will send the 1,000 TBT!

Rules Regarding Your Entry
-The art can be anything you please, really! If it's anything traditional, it has to be captured on a good-quality camera. Drawings MUST be colored and must at least be a halfbody shot that shows off the entire sweater.
-The sweater has to have an appropriate design. Tbh I'm disgusted with how many inappropriate sweater designs I found on the internet, and I don't get mad at a lot of things.
-Like I mentioned, I'll take art of all skill levels, but put some effort into it. I can tell if you've spent time on art versus slapping it together in ten minutes.
bonus points if you add pav? and make it a crossover

Sign up for the contest by liking this post and commenting below since my dumb self messed the signup sheet up. Hope y'all have a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!

EDIT: The winner has been announced and all of the entries have been posted!

Cool idea, I bet there will be a lot of great entries. :)
Do you send a link of your OC to the participants once you have enough?

Her name is actually a hyperlink, but it blends in with the regular text color. I'm actually going to go ahead and change the color of it so people can see it easily.

Ah, thanks! That brown can be admittedly hard to see at times.

sound fun! never drew an splatoon character (cant type their name right XD) before but i will try ^.^
 
i've had NO drive to draw lately so i might forget, but this sounds fun! ^^;
 
hey! i would absolutely want to join! I would love to improve my drawing skills!
 
ATTENTION, TBT'ERS!
Signups officially end on December 12th! If you want to sign up, please do so quickly! At the time of writing this, we only need one more contestant to reach the minimum!
 
I don't know how long I'll stick around, but I hope I'll be able to do this contest.

Since we now have 7 entries, I guess those who entered can start on their art.
 
Holy crap 1,000 tbt is super generous lol

Anyways I'll sign up, I've never drawn a Splatoon character before so this will be a first for me. I'll start working on it when my winter break starts, prob at the same time I'll be working on the Secret Santa project.
 
I decided to remove the signup. Now you can enter after December 12th, so long as your art is in by the 25th.
 
Gonna start working on it today!
I couldn't sleep, as I tried to think of a good idea and
I got one, yay! (Please brain, let me sleep in peace now)
