STOCK CONTEST - INSPIRATIONG'day folks,
I am two days over due, but here it is. A contest ONLY for stock!
The theme is 'Inspiration'
And I can hear some of you already going... "What the??? That is a bit BROAD!"
Well there is a twist.
You need to find inspiration from another stock artist.
The idea of this is to push you outside of your comfort zone and create an stock image (or series) that you never thought you would create.
Which other stock artist do you watch and go "Wow!", I wish I could be more like them?
To be clear, this is not having you re-create their image/ series. It is about you taking inspiration from that series and putting your own spin on it
I've done it personally quite a number of times...

Contest - RED! For visual and stock artists!G'day everyone!
I thought it was about time that I ran another contest! The theme is based off my 'Red' series that I have just uploaded.
Example:

There are 50 uploaded images - check them out. I have created a gallery folder with them all in here: http://kirilee.deviantart.com/gallery/39919955
There are two categories, with two subheadings each. Thus, there will be a total of 4 winners. Visual Art (Photomanipulation and other Visual Art forms - ie. drawing, painting, digital or traditional) and Stock (Advanced and Beginner - I want those who have never done or done little stock before to give it a try)
As an extra incentive, all creations will be displayed on this journal for the course of the competition like a mini feature.
Please submit your contest entries either via note or as a comment to this journal entry.
Artists can submit up to 3 entries pe

New Beginnings Contest! - EXTENDED DEADLINE!It's that time of year again.

Show us ya skillz, we know you have them! Couldn't be simpler. See contest. Join contest.

This contest is running over the new year, new year new start and all, so hey, NEW BEGINNINGS! (Yes, yes I know. Providing the world doesn't end soon.

though even that would be a kinda new beginning, it's the beginning of an afterlife or of nothingness or reincarnation, whichever belief you hold to.) So long as your work is titled and inspired by the idea of beginning, starting something new, something unknown

Oh well, maybe next time

I hope you'll still consider using my stock though - your work is very beautiful

~Drakhonheart Mar 22, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Oh, I didn't mean it that way. Of course, I'd like to-.. But I'm not used to use any stocks, and I didn't have any ideas where I could insert one.. So I couldn't submit anything. You're stock is very nice, don't worry QQ
