http://swain-slave.deviantart.com/  You can find more info in my Deviant art journal


Here are the rules and entry requirements.

1. The Subject matter must be Captain Amelia related, or Eric related, both can be int he same picture, and other characters can be int he image as well, as long as either Eric or Amelia or both are the subject matter

2. NO ANIME styles of Amelia or Eric, please

3. The work can be hand drawn traditional, or Digital (no photo editing)

4. The work must be original to this contest (non-existing prior to today's date)

5. The work must be submitted to me in a note (with a link to your work) BEFORE ***JULY*** 2nd

6. Coloring is optional, it can be black and white, or colored.

7. Proportions and realism count, though you can do her in a cartoony style

8. have fun, this is not to be a serious contest, it is FOR FUN

9. The Prizes are one of two drawings from my gallery (I will mail them to you, signed and dated)

10. Winner gets to pick which one they want, and second place will get the other one.

11. I will think of more rules as the days go on here.

12. (edit) No more than two entries per participant. You can enter more than 2, but you must decide which two will be in the running.

13. (edit) If a persons work claims the 1st and 2nd positions, third place will get the other drawing. One prize per participant.

14. (edit) The drawing is still my creation, this is a prize, no a movement of rights. I will seek legal action if I find it is being claimed as someone else's work.

15. (edit) you may post it as a deviation, but give credit and how you obtained it in the descriptions.

16. (edit) More rules coming as they hit me.

17. (edit) The two winners must post a picture of themselves holding the drawing they have won. (smiling is, however, optional)

The Prizes...

***EDIT***

First Place, $100 USD (five 20 dollar bills) and 1 (one) of the following drawings

"The Cap'n"
"The Cap'n and her sword"
Second place, a one year Subscription and the remaining drawing

First, Second, and all other entries received will be featured in my journal.

The drawing can be substituted with another drawing from my gallery, and the cash prize is available in US Dollars only (sorry to those who are not Americans, but it spends just the same)



The voters will be my friends and watchers, you can vote on which on in the poll. I will provide a thumb for each entry (send me a link in a note) and I will update this as well.




Extending the contest to promote more entries and give time to those who entered!

And on a side note, Eric is my creation alone. Some people are thinking he is a Treasure planet Character, he is not in any way a treasure planet character. He is my creation, and based LOOSELY on Treasure planet's Captain Amelia. Other than that, he is mine.

treasure planet was a disney film, not an anime

Teen Titans was an American cartoon, but I'll be damned if they weren't emulating anime. Disney is fully capable of drawing in an anime style, though I've never seen Treasure Planet.

Basically, that reasoning sucks. Try again.

lulz, anime wars... My characters are not intended to be anime in any way, I've just seen HORRIBLE anime renditions of Amelia and my character Eric, so I stopped it.  I'm not a big anime fan, plain and simple.

i'm gonna go ahead and trump this guy with the fact that he NEVER SAW TREASURE PLANET and thus wouldn't know what the crap kinda drawing style they used.

I have seen Treasure Planet, there is an anime influence present.

It's always a gamble when you assume, but hey, sometimes you win.

yeah, there is some anime influence, but that does not count is as anime (at least in my eyes) 

And my comic, and characters are not anime (by my intentions, if you think, they are, then feel free to do so, I won't argue)

Actually I was making no point about Treasure Planet, just why you're reasoning for why it wasn't anime sucked.

Buuuut while we're at it.

It's fun being right even when I have no idea what I'm talking about.

There may be an influence of anime inthe movie, but its nto what I based my character (eric)  off of. 

Is he anime?  no, but that is only my opinion.  is there an influence, probably.

Treasure Planet was frickin awesome!

So many artists are inspired by anime but don't draw anime...  campbell, madureira, bachalo... Disney is no exception.  I've taken aspects of anime (only cuz it's everywhere and very versatile) but no one has ever said I draw in anime at all.

I'm definitely gonna take a whack at it.  If anything, just out of love of the movie.
