Salutations one and all!  Want your chance to win 150 dA points for absolutely nothing!?  Then +Fav this news article to put yourself in the May 1/50 For 150 Raffle!  For every 50 +Faves this article receives, I will add another winner to the running, so you have at minimum a 1/50 chance of winning*!  See!  Clever word play!  It's funny, yes!?
*Up to the first 500 who +Fav this article.  Not eligible for jackelopes,
sentient marshmallows, or participants residing in countries without vowels.
"But `vest," you might be poetically contemplating.  "That's such an awful waste of money, you obnoxious bombastic codger, you!  Why would you so stupidly throw points around all willy nilly like that on such handsome dapper blokes like us!?"
To which I reply, "Because you are a bunch of handsome dapper blokes!"
Oh...And to shamelessly plug the :devcolor-me-club

April 1/50 for 150 Raffle!BULLETIN:
As a way to kick off April's coloring contest, we are once again hosting the 1/50 for 150 Raffle!  All you have to do is +Fav this journal, which puts you in a random drawing to win an easy 150 dA points!  Pretty easy, huh?  So easy and effortless, you'll probably wake up in a few days having completely forgotten, and wondering just who this #color-me-club fellow is that's throwing random dA points at you.
There will be a winner added for each extra 50 +Fav's this journal receives.  So you have, at minimum, a one in fifty shot at winning!  However, the winner cap will be at 500 +Fav's, so get yourself in quickly to be in the first 500 before the cap is reached!
Of course, this whole raffle thing is just a big ol' ruse to stir up attention to an even bigger event.  Yep, already mentioned it earlier, but colorists unite(!) we're also kicking off our next coloring contest!

1/50 for 150 +Fav Raffle & March Lineart Conte

Journal Entry: Sat Mar 10, 2012, 12:19 PM

Help spread the word and +Fav This Journal
For your chance to win 150 dA points!

For every 50 people that +Fav this journal (up to 500, so +Fav it quick) a random winner will be chosen from the +Fav listing to be awarded 150 points. Therefore, you have at least a 1/50 chance to win 150 dA points!

Winners will be drawn on March 13th, so get in quick!

The Presents

_{---== THE MARCH LINEART CONTEST ==---}

REACH FOR THE STARS/SANCTUARY

You may choose one of two themes this month - either 'Reach for the Stars' or 'Sanctuary.'  You may also attempt to mesh them together in some creative fashion, but you aren't required to.  If you'd rather just run with a single theme, that is perfectly acceptable!

As is the norm (well, new norm...so make that norm-ish...) of #color-me-club contests, debates surged forth from prospective contest participants expressing their worries and tribulations over the impending theme for the month of March.  I didn't expect there to be too much discontent, but just in case I find myself necessitating assistance from a government protection agency and spending the next month dodging hostile voicemails in the depths of a concrete bunker in Utah, participants will get to choose from the top two themes!

You can draw yourself ascending to new heights, traversing the universe, or rocketing to the heavens.  Or, you could make your dream castle or desert island pirate fortress!  Or you could make a towering desert island pirate fortress ascending to new heights like the Tower of Babel was constructed with planks, rum bottles, cannons, and parrot perches.

What is it with my pirate obsession this morning?

For suggesting these themes, not only do *HANAJIMA-UCHIHA and ~Redwind36 get a little sanctuary of their own in the #color-me-club blog...

_{"Perhaps a castle rocketing to the heavens?"}

...But have also won 500 dA points.

PRIZE LISTING

2,000 points by the #color-me-club (see donation poll on

to contribute)
500 points by `vest

I'M DONE! HOW DO I SUBMIT TO THE CONTEST?

Submit your finished lines to your dA gallery, then send a note to the #color-me-club or `vest.

Entitle the note "March Lineart Submission." Inside of the note, include a [link] to your lineart. That's it. That's all you need to do to submit your entry to the lineart contest.

ANY SPECIAL RULES?

A few.

By contributing your lineart to this contest, you automatically agree to the rules listed herein, and give permission to the #color-me-club to showcase your artwork in the #color-me-club journal.

Only one entry per deviant.

Entries must be dated no earlier than March 1st, 2012.

Entries should be received by April 1st.  While we still accept entries through voting, you understand that late entries will be uploaded when the club is updated, and the artist will lose potential votes with a late entry.

The lineart must be your own.  Ripped or "sampled" lineart will be disqualified.  This includes tracing.  This does not include "referenced" images, you may use any image for reference.  As long as you don't trace an existing image directly, you're free to use any image for reference to help you create your work.

Winners of previous contests ARE allowed to participate.  There are no restraints for how often members can contribute.  The game here isn't about winning.  It's about creating.

You do not have to be a #color-me-club member to participate.  This is open to the whole dA community!

Lastly, have only one artist submit the image.  Collaborative efforts are encouraged.  However, ensure the other collaborator knows the image will be submitted to the contest, and determine who will be representing the image.

Best of luck, everybody!

`vest
