PJM 2014 – Art Contest

This post officially closes the Writing Contest. Winners will be announced Sunday 23rd.

And with this post also begins the Art Contest, yay! This one will be held in one round and will be open for everyone. I will put the rules in a Q&A fashion, as that it easier to read and comprehend. On we go.

What is the Art Contest?

The Art Contest is your chance to show of your drawing abilities and to get featured into the first PJM issue! The big winner will also receive a free copy sent to his home.

What do I have to do?

You have to submit a fairly large drawing intended to be fit alone on an A4 sheet of paper. It can be any style, anything you want, as long as it has to do with Pokémon. It should also have zero to little text, as it should be an artpiece and not a comic.

Where do I send it to?

You can email me at ‘magazine at pokejungle.net’ with an at-sign instead of at.

Technical details?

These are important. If you don’t submit it like it is said here, your entrance may be invalid. I’ll mail you back if that is the case however. The picture itself has to be around  2480 x 3508 and must closely maintain the aspect ratio of 1:1.41 (width:height). I’ll only accept uncompressed .png, no jpg, gif or Photoshop formats. Your image is best zipped to a zipfile and attached as an attachment to your mail, in order to avoid compression by mail services. Certainly don’t use an image host to sent it to me, their results are horribly compressed.

How much time do I have?

The contest’s closing date will be announced at a later date, but you have plenty of time.

Can I include my signature?

You not only can but you have to include your artist’s signature so we and everyone else know it is your work. Keep in mind you’ll still be the owner of the artpiece, but you have to give us a free license to allow your work being published in the magazine, in exchange for a copy of the magazine itself.

I’ve got some questions not mentioned here

You can always mail me at the email address given above. Note: I do not give free personal interviews. Contact my agent for that.

Update:

Of course it can (and should) be a digital drawing. Who still uses manual tools when we’ve got a whole range of electronics to aid us. Besides, a direct image is always in higher quality than a scan or picture :).

 

I’ll be sure to write a reminder the coming weeks. Now I have to tackle writing some additional for PJM, work never seems to be done, ugh. Luckily I have two free weekends coming up! 😀 Happy commenting!

P.S. I need sleep. I hate waking up at 6 am in the morning in the weekends.

  1. Now this is a story all about how my life got flip turn “up, b, down” And I’d like to take 7 days, just sit right back, and I’ll tell you how I became the prince of a town called “twitch chat”. in left pallet town. born and raised, on the start menu was where I spent most of my days, freakin out, spazzin, jazzin like a fool, in the rocket hq is where I felt, like, real cool, when a couple of guys, they started to speak, “anarchy instead of democracy!” I released my jay leno, there was no turning bacl, but I guess that’s just what happens in a place called “twitch chat”.

    I begged and pleaded to my king dome fossil, but he said “b, a , up” and I started to hustle. The dome gave me a kiss and sent me on my way, I said “gosh, this has been going on for 7 days”.

    Now x released, and CCC, both of them gone and I hated that, Is this how the chat was going to be like? darn, this wont be alright

    But the naming is hard, I tried to write “Jay”, Just tryin to name took me all day, I don’t think so, I’m sick of this crap, I can’t believe I’m the prince of twitch chat.

    Well the fourth badge I was rewarded, There was an officer jenny, standing like a true warrant, I saw da booty, and I tried to walk over, but my commands sent me around like a rouge lawn mower, but I moved at the speed of light, and got off dat path of flight

    I whistle at dat jenny, and she heard it by ear, She put me in the police car, I checked out dat booty through the mirror, I couldn’t believe a body like that,
    was taken away by a place called twitch chat.

    It’s been a rough day, about day 7 or eight, this place called twitch chat is what I really hate, I looked at this mess, and I took a step back
