That's right! Spring has sprung and with it, comes a boom in Smol bean population, and it seems they've somehow invaded the mushroom kingdom and are causing havoc for thr Smg4 crew as well as the other locals of the kingdom.
It's up to you, yes you! To help capture as many Smol beans as you can! Write or draw yourself, oc, or your au version of the smg4 crew running around and capturing as many Smol beans as possible! More information below!
Astro-visions spring event
As stated above, you will be drawing or writing about how you/oc/au version of the crew will go about finding, hunting, and capturing smol beans! A few things to keep in mind, these beans are protected under the A.A.O [Astronia Agricultural orginaization] which means you CANNOT hurt the beans. You must collect them and take them to the docs. A ship will be waiting there to take the beans back to their home on Astronia!
You won't be alone of course, you'll have the one and only BeeBe ai to help guide you! BeeBe is an ai that can randomly appear on any electronic device, it's soul purposes is to inform and help you with anything smol bean related! [BeeBe does not have to be included in the prompt, they are an optional addition]
Or perhaps one of the Astro-vision crew members will help you out? They know the area better then anyone! [Again, astro vision characters inclusions are optional]
Rules
You must include at least one oc/au smg4 character/cannon smg4 character in the writing or drawing along with one smol bean that your character is hunting. You may design your own smol Bean or use one of the event beans as seen below
If you are to design your own bean, please follow these rules
Beans cannot be based on body fluids of any kind
All beans must have a stripe on their belly [linear from head to toe]
Beans do not have teeth, if they have teeth that is not a Smol bean, that is a Fur Bean in Smol bean form, which is a similar but different species
Beans will often have head ordements, these are not required, but are fairly common
Beans can have wings so long as it fits the theme of their liquid
The liquid they are based on doesn't have to be edible
Beans must have a liquid tail, it doesn't have to be supper big, and can be a nub tail, but they must have a tail
NO EYES
NO LONG LIMBS
Beans don't Have paws, toes, or toe beans, these can be added as a style choice, but are not cannon, they simply have nubs
If you do design your own bean you are allowed to keep it! As beans are an open species. If you draw one of the beans above however you CANNOT keep it. If there are enough entries some of these beans may be given out as prizes randomly.
This event is for all ages, please do not include any explicit material in your entry.
You may not collab with others unless you state in your submission you both are comfortable with co owning the prize if you win one. Collab entries will only receive one prize if they win
You must tag me in your post, and while not required, it's also recommended you put the #Astro-Vision Spring Event in tags
You will be judged based on effort, not skill. For example a 1k word writing will better your odds then a 500 word entry, or a full colored entry with multiple charecters will get you a better chance to win then a single charecter Sketch. Traditional artists will be judged slightly differently since I understand materials are expensive. Overall it's about having fun and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and trying new things, so don't stress too much!
If you have any questions please ask me!
Speaking of prizes-
Prizes
