How It Will Work

There will be Two Categories: One for Artists. One for Writers.

Either draw something, or write something that goes with the Theme decided above (lots of potential with this one I highly encourage you to let your imagines fly with it~)

You can submit One Entry per person, per category (meaning you can draw something and write something if you would like ^^)

Must be new art (nothing created prior to this Journal entry) created specifically for this Raffle

Leave a link back to this contest in the description of your submission.

Comment on this Journal with a link to your entry

The Entry will be both lettered and numbered, according to the category it goes in

When the deadline passes, all entries will be featured in another Journal, with their respective Numbers

Out of all participants, the entry that strikes the Founder’s fancy the most (on the grounds of how well it fits the theme, execution, technique, impression, etc…) shall be awarded a Prize as well.

From those remaining Numbers, a People's Choice Poll will be set up for voting, allowing Members to choose their favorite entries. Multiple Polls may be set up, to narrow down the placing to the top three.

Once the Polls closed, those three that placed the highest will be awarded First, Second, and Third place, respectfully~

From the remaining participants, One entry from each Category will be selected Randomly for a prize, in support of their participation of this activity (by means of Random.org)




As for the Founder’s Choice and Secret Prizes… I’m not gonna say just yet~~ But, it will be Kuroshitsuji related, and come from artists that I personally have worked with previously, with this fandom
