Unveiling/Starting Time: July 1st 2018 @ 12:00PM Central Standard Time
(1 per minute until all are posted)
Entry Deadline: July 30, 2018 @ 11:59PM Central Standard Time
Who can enter: anyone 16 or older, whether or not you are affiliated with JunkTown. We ask that you join the group with your character if you win them, but you can also use them for AU’s other than JunkTown.
This post will be reblogged after the unveiling as well for easy access.
(Info and Guidelines below the cut)
How the event will work:
Each character will have their watermarked ID posted on @welcome-to-junktown as a separate blog post, available for viewing any time.
Below each ID will be the tags you should use to hashtag your entries.
You can post your entry any time before the deadline.
You may edit your entry any time before the deadline (please let @kelly-scribes know if you do, so I can be absolutely sure I have your best version on file, and so the most recent version can be reblogged to the hub blog).
Entries will not be accepted the moment the clock strikes midnight on July 31st, 2018
Judging officially begins July 31st
Winners will be announced no later than August 7, 2018
If you have won, you will be tagged in the winner’s circle post, and you will be privately messaged by admin Clickspring to receive the downloads of your character’s files.
How to Enter:
Following the guidelines below, inspired by one of the character IDs,create your entry.
Upload your entry to Tumblr and/or DeviantART.
In the artist comments make sure to state that the piece is your official entry, and which character you are competing for. Linking to said character’s blog post is appreciated, but not mandatory.
Tag @welcome-to-junktown if you are posting on Tumblr. You can also tag @kelly-scribes if you want me to find your entry faster.
Tag ( :iconwelcome-to-junktown: ) if you are posting to DeviantART
Hashtag the entry as #welcome to junktown (or) #welcome-to-junktown | #adopt-a-thon2018 | #(character’s name)
(This will be in the description and tags of your character’s blog post to help everyone remember)
Untagged entries will not be accepted, the tagging will help me and my guest judges with entry navigation during judging. If you do not tag, we will not see your entry when browsing the appropriate category, therefore it is as if you didn’t enter at all.
You may make changes to your entry until the deadline. At the deadline time your entry will be catalogued in its current state for final judging.
Guidelines:
You must follow JunkTown Canon and Rules in your entry, any non-canon entries will be automatically disqualified.
You may not make significant changes to the character until you have won them (small things like clothing changes are okay).
You may compete for more than one character, but for the sake of fairness, you may only win one (1) adopt.
You may enter up to two (2) entries for judge consideration on the character of your choice. Entries may be written, drawn digitally, or drawn traditionally.
Your entry should somehow demonstrate your take on the character you are trying for. Show me in your style, either written and/or drawn, how you feel they would be. The scenario you draw or write is entirely your choice. Basically, show me what you would do with the character if it was yours. I have left open ended traits and situations in each ID card for you to interpret as you please.
Written entries must be a minimum of 500 words.
Drawn entries must be finished products, traditional entries should not be drawn on lined paper.
There will be no deadline extensions. I have offered an early entry option for several weeks, and have advertised thoroughly. Any adopts with no entries will be withdrawn and available for sale after the deadline.
What you can win:
You will win the unwatermarked, HD png file of your character’s ID Card.
The full body image from the ID, uncropped and in full high resolution, with and without a basic background.
Copyright to the character you have won to build on as your own.
These are all available on my Redbubble shop! Created to be stickers, but I’ve made them available as a number of other merchandise types as well!
See the blue variant here!
This is a project I’ve been meaning to do for awhile, and finally decided to do so to help me through a lapse of art block. I’ve always wanted to try to create a sticker design, JunkTown seemed like a great subject, and it has needed a devoted icon for awhile. This was extremely fun, and I am now set up on redbubble because I would like to make some more designs to help my currently minimal income a little bit, and also to make cool merch for other folks to enjoy. If anyone has an idea for something they’d like to see me to make as merchandise, please let me know!
