    I'm sorry to say this but I still cannot accept your entry into this contest.

    "8.Only one entry per official forum member, multiple entries will not be accepted and the user will be disqualified."

    I'll admit that I have been thinking about this most of the day and I do like the drawing you did. It's very cute but I have to be fair here. If I were to let the rules slide this time, then I'd have to do it for everyone. No hard feelings and I hope you understand. Have a good day.

    I think it should be fine, since the first entry was not valid. It did not count, so technically the second post is the only entry.

    Also, question, would it be fine to draw the picture by hand, scan it (and supply picture of the raw) and color/edit it digitally?

    - When you put it that way, it works out. That was eating at me in a kind of a bad way to disqualify someone. Alright, your entry is in Nekof!

    - I would prefer that you not edit the photo digitally as it's suppose to just be a raw scan. The problem is that using filters and such to improve the drawing takes out the original effort as your correcting small mistakes that added charm to the original. Entries do not have to be in color, that's completely optional. All that matters is that whatever you make fits the theme.

    Here's my submission. Sorry I couldn't color it. I don't have any ways to do that with traditional art. Well, okay I do, but I'm not about to bust out these Crayolas either LOL. I am working on a digital version separate from this contest which will eventually be posted on my personal site and my dA. You could watch for that later if you want.

    I had a lot of things in mind for Summer such as a festival, scary movie, bug hunting, and just her out and about in nature. What started as a sketch of her in some summer fashion type clothes eventually morphed into a sporty outfit which then evolved into a sports theme lol. In particular, baseball. What other sport for the summer than baseball?

    I recalled this particular idol, Hoshino Aki, who received a lot of coverage for the outfit she wore at a baseball game where she threw out the first pitch. (Reference video: Hoshino Aki - YouTube). So consider this somewhat of a crossover with that regard, though I decided to give her a bat instead.

    I didn't really draw it to the point where I would consider it complete since I have a more digital end point in mind, but hopefully this will suffice. Thanks for hosting the contest btw and gl all :D

    Well as I stated before, it's completely optional if you color your entry. It's not a requirement nor will that be reflected in judging. You've mentioned something very interesting that I feel should have been added to the rules a lot time ago, thank you for pointing it out.

    Make sure to put it into an IMG code

    Like this Porygon
    Code:
    [img]http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/055/e/4/luka_megurine__3_by_polygonz09-d5w46w6.jpg[/img]
    Do that for both images, also make sure to edit your entry post to reflect the changes.

    [Edit] February 24 2013 8:12PM EST
    If people cannot get the IMG code to work, then just post either a direct link to your image or photo album pages.

    I'm sorry this is probably super easy and I'm just complicating it myself

    I need to discuss when a good time to do the judging will be with Miku and the rest before the winners can be announced. I'm hoping that it will be before the end of the month if possible to make the announcement. Thank you to all who have participated in this contest and I wish the contestants luck!

    The list has been finalized, I'm going to send you and Almeria the combined list of our choices and then perhaps I can make the announcement later today.

    Special thanks to Almeria for helping out in the judging ^_^
