New challenge
Hi,
Sorry for the delay starting the new challenge, I have not been feeling well. Migraines are not fun
I think I'm still waiting on 3 secret santas, so sad
SECRET SANTA!!
Can I just remind everyone that if you take part in our Secret Santa you MUST -
1. Draw a dragon by 25th December or let me know why it will be late/when it will be finished.
2. SUBMIT YOUR DRAGON TO THE GROUP'S SECRET SANTA GALLERY FOLDER!
(what is the point in taking part if you are not going to give out your secret santa before Christmas, why hold onto it until it is 2 or 3 weeks late and leave me stressing over whether I need to find a replacement to draw a dragon for your person)
Also please remember if you use any stock I haven't suggested as part of the challenge please check it is:
1. Submitted in one of the stock galleries on deviantart
2. Check the stock artists rules for any restrictions on use.
Also I saw someone submitting photos they found on google as free stock in one of the stock groups I watch, just remember that this is not ok. Despite what they may think about their ability to jump through the gaping loopholes in Deviantart rules, if the image isn't their own photograph stay away from it. If the real artist found you selling prints and took exception it could get messy.
New Gallery folder!
With the introduction of the commission section in the journal I have decided to add a commission folder in the gallery so that if you make a dragon commission for someone you can upload it to our gallery. That means if you advertise commissions in our journal people can see examples of what they could get by viewing the folder in our gallery.
The gallery folder submission rules:
1. Only dragon commissions
2. Must be made by a member, its not open to affiliates but doesn't have to be made for a member.
3. Should be an example of a commission, that's work someone has paid the you to make not a free gift.
4. Can be any medium, I will even accept writing so long as it is a genuine commission for someone.
I would expect when you submit a commission to DA you'll be writing in the deviation description who paid for it so I'll be moderating submission based on the information in your image descriptions.
Note - you can submit old commissions, it doesn't have to be new work for this folder.
BTW - for the commissions folder. Copyright rules apply, for example, I wont be accepting adoptable toothless images as you should not be selling copyrighted characters. A one off private commission of toothless maybe but not sheets of adoptables. Please be careful what you try to sell, especially if you use stock to make it.
Commissions
One of our members (and previous winners) is offering commissions.
"I would like to take on commissions for the first time! I've currently got two options (see my homepage for more details):
A full colour with background (digital only), or..
A rough pencil/pen sketch (no colour) or digital (can be colour) with no background."
If you request a dragon then she will donate to our group too.
For more details please see her journal lutrasilvereye.deviantart.com/…
is now also offering commissions.
"I do in traditional media quality works (can try to draw everything).
I accept both PayPal (USD$ or EUR€) and DeviantArt points.
Prices starts from 3$.

Another of our members and regular secret santa is now offering commissions.

Affiliate contests:
None that I know of.
Other contests:
None that I know of, sorry.
My current balance is: 284 points, this will be used to buy 2014's subscription which is about 9700 points. No hurry there then

I'm back!
Well, you might have noticed, on my personal gallery, that I'm back.
That huge art block has lifted with the help of twitch.
I thought I'd poke the group and see if anyone is still about or interested in some kind of revival of challenges.
If I do restart this I will probably be drawing any entries I make live on twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/scellanis
Well
May & June challenge has been a total disaster. I think I will be closing this group.
So I still don't have time to do anything with this group but if there is anyone out there who wants to take it over and run it in my absence then I could promote someone to a co-founder position.
I would not want to lose touch completely so I don't think I would give up my founder position just yet.
It has to be someone who understands stock rules and art theft and also has a good understanding of the purpose of this group, if you are interested please send me a private message, I still check my message centre daily.
I wouldn't mind promoting someone wh
Hmm
I can't afford to renew the subscription so there will be no more polls, journal skins, nested folders...
Its all going to look a bit messy. I shall try to keep posting challenges but I don't think there will be anymore winners, I can't think of a fair unbiased way to chose the winners without group polls.
hmm
So I really can't afford to upgrade to super right now which means we no longer have polls or nested gallery folders, journal skins. Its all going to look a bit messy from now on. :(
I will keep posting challenges but I don't think there will be any winners anymore since I can't think of a fair unbiased way to pick winners without polls.
