Good luck to everyone! My creatures I entered are nowhere near as amazing and unique as everyone else's.
Nonetheless, I had fun making this. I'm glad I could take part.

Hi, how do I link my art to your note as I am using my phone and also is it also necessary that I need to watch and favourite this journal to enter?

rainylake In reply to lizzyisme [2019-02-21 20:02:14 +0000 UTC]

Just copy and paste the url. And no, nowhere does it say you have to do any of those things.

Hi! I've a question.
Can we invent a new fantasy creature, or we've to draw a fantasy creature already "existing", like mythologicals, novel creatures...?

rainylake In reply to Lupo-alla-Luna [2019-01-12 00:16:51 +0000 UTC]

Nope, it can be whatever. Hybrid animal, existing creature. As long as it's an animal

rainylake In reply to Leopard-Enya [2019-01-12 00:17:39 +0000 UTC]

This is something I haven't thought about. If it's a collab and you happen to win, what happens with the prize? That's my only concern.
