(1) All entries will be judged by my wife, hertofore referredto as Michelle (her name...hehe) (2) All entries will be discarded and not used for any other purpose except for the winning entry. (3) In the event Michelle does not like any submittal, she will choose one entry that she liked the best to receive the $25. (4) The entries should be (printed) 2 inches by 2 inches. (5) It should be a unicorn. Michelle's request is that the unicorn must be in a reared position or just the head. (6) No background scenery other than some "swirlies" (her words, not mine). Remember, it's for a tatoo, so really distinct background images must be considered. (7) Although I like pure black ink type images, Michelle would like something colorful. Her favorite colors for unicorns are a mixture of: white, lavender, purple, green, and pink. Of course, the artist has the opportunity to provide their own artistic interpretation of what they think looks good. One thing to remember: Michelle has searched the internet long and wide and not found just the right image to use. (8) The image should provide enough detail for a tatoo artist to transfer to a pattern, if you are familiar with that process. (9) The winning artist agrees to make minor adjustments to the final image if needed. This probably means a more prominent foreground and faded backgroun if needed. (10) Screen DPI images should be posted on this message. The winning artist will be given an email address to send the final image to. (11) Michelle's decision shall be the final decision as to the winner. (12) IM me for any additional questions or clarification. I will post here if it seems necessary. (13) Contest deadline November 15th. (14) In the event less than 5 submissions are received, I'll assume the prize wasn't good enough and discontinue the contest without an award. But, with 6 or more entries, a prize will be awarded regardless if it is chosen as an actual tatoo for Michelle. (15) Multiple entries are allowed. PS: I know it's not much of a prize to expect an artist to work for. But it's a chance to make Michelle happy, see your work on her back, get credit for it, and, perhaps, have some fun. She can't pay much more than that AND pay for the tatoo.
