Tales of Time


Our contest theme is "Tales of Time" which really opens the floor up too all forms of media including literature arts!  For this contest we want too see your wonderful creations inspired by the 'tales of time' this can be any form of art inspired by stories through out time everything from nursery rhymes, legendary trilogy, classic novels, songs that tell stories, games, tv, movies, or generally anything action, adventure, fantasy, romance and such forth.


There of course are a couple of rules;


1. You must include either an original character or scene you can recreate a character or a scene from an existing text, game or film (you can make up a character but must include some preexisting element you've got the whole library of existing characters and stories too choose from and you can amend them to be more in your theme or style for example a steampunk little miss muffet or a realistic humanoid version of toad from wind in the willows or your own character in a preexisting theme).

2. ACG is used by users of all ages and viewed by many more so please keep your creations to a PG 13 - you may use subtle gore, nudity and other explicit content with taste but anything over kill will be removed from the entries - Thank you.

3. If you choose to do literature please do not outright copy an idea please try to be a little more creative like those deleted scenes, character descriptions and such forth.

4. As we always ask that you include in artist comments that your contest was made for #AnotherContestGroup's contest we would very much like if you could include that along with a brief description of what your inspiration and creation was from and what it is for example "inspired by disneys shreck and so created my own version of shrek in the style of picaso" or "scene from shakespears hamlet created in my own comic book style manga". (Please make sure your entry was created for this contest and only submitted too this contest.  You may submit too other groups but not contests.)

5. Contest will start today 3rd of January 2013 no entries created before 5pm GMT will be accepted.  Contest will end 23rd March 2013 Has been extended to 8th July 2013.

6. You can enter as many times as you like but only win once. Entries must be submitted to: [link]

7. Anyone can enter, you do not have to be a member/watcher/affiliate/sponsor with this group (though it would be nice).  Anyone can donate, donators can still enter this contest.  Judges can donate (but don't have too) but they can not enter this contest.  Staff can enter should they wish too.

8. Your entries will be subject of 2 approvals.  This is to provent spam.  Please wait and do not resubmit.  The staff will approve this a.s.a.p

9. Obviously open too all mediums and medias: Literature, Traditional Painting, Digital Drawing, Mixed Media, Crafts etc.  All arts and art forms are accepted.  Please credit all stock and references used.

10. We reserve the right too remove / not accept entries to this contest.

11. Winners will be chosen based on the creativity and effort put into the creation for example a 20 hour digital painting master piece of a well chosen and illustrated character and scene may have more chance of winning than a 2 minute sketch of your favourite pokemon with no background, scene or general story.  Please remember we're looking for full finished pieces of work here which shows a tale from time gone by.

I have an entry almost done, but telling what the inspiration was would spoil the point of the piece (which is to have people think about it). Would it be acceptable for me to send a note with the inspiration instead of putting it in the description, so as to avoid diminishing its effectiveness?

Yeah, So I'm thinking of joining this but I need to clear things first. When you said it could be about anything---stories,movies,songs, and others. Will it be applied if the story is made up or as we say created by a friend of mine or even mine. Because there's this story I really love but the problem is it's mine. Not an official story from a real writer.

I don't see why you can't.
If the story is posted on the Internet or published, then yes, I'd assume so. Otherwise I'm not sure.
