Hey fellow Steemians,

I´m really happy and excited to present you

Design A Character Contest- Week 4 - @STEEMKITTEN SPECIAL EDITION

This weeks Contest

This weeks contest is a special Edition dedicated to @steemkitten.

This contest is open to artists of any level, background and drawing style.
Traditional Art will be accepted as well as Digital art.


Who is @steemkitten?

@steemkitten is a cuddle-bot created by @fraenk, who is also our Guest-Judge and Sponsor this weeek

@steemkitten is a little stray kitten.
She roams in the #cats category.
She loves to be cuddled and can be a bit of an attention seeker.

Take a look at @steemkitten´s Introduction


Who is @fraenk?

I met @fraenk first time when I entered his #GooglyPrize Contest, i think. :)
He infected me with his GooglyFever, and i did a lot of puplic EyeBombing! :D

Over the time we had some good talks via Discord and steemit.
Nowadays I would say we are good steemit-pals and we have a
lot in common besides our native languge german. ;)
He introduced me to @steemkitten, and I fell in love!
I´m really happy we could Collab in that way.

And now the most important

A few words from our Guest-Judge @fraenk

My cuddle-bot @steemkitten desperatly needs an original visual identity.

This contest has convinced me with some pretty amazing artwork in the past weeks, so I want to use this opportunity to make something cuddly even cuddlier!

Be creative, give @steemkitten some personality.

Is she stereotypically cute (yeah, it's a she!) or a bit rough around the edges? Does she have edges at all?

I'd like to see what you imagine a virtual little cuddly kitten to look like.

Participants should agree to give their permission for having their original artwork featured in future posts by @steemkitten (credits will be given of course!).

The kitten will eventually need a few full sized images for posts-titles and a bunch of small unobtrusive images or GIFs for commenting.

Right now she shows only two major "actions" - begging for attention & cuddling her friends - which are represented by a few random gifs or messages each.

For this contest though, just give her a personality and show that you can reproduce her character in a few poses (simple skribbles are fine for that).

The prize of this contest will be awarded regardless of whether steemkitten will actually adopt the winning design or not!

If the winner is totally amaze-balls and I like it so much that I'll want to keep it as @steemkitten's original identity, a longer term cooperation would be most awesome!


The judging


This weeks Contest begins on Wednesday.
On Monday @fraenk and I will announce the top 3 and allow steemit users to vote for the final winner.
The Winner will be announced on next Wednesday.


The Prize

The winners will be announced on next Wednesday and will be rewarded half of all SBD raised on that weeks #designacharacter contest-posts.
So keep upvoting and resteeming the contest-posts, to make the prize as big as possible ;)

Additionally @fraenk sponsors 10 SBD to the prizepool!

And maybe there will be a longer term cooperation with @fraenk and @steemkitten! Who knows?

And because I want all of the Top three to get a price, they will be rewarded with a trophy-token each! :)

Just make sure you have a bitshares account so I can transfre it to you!

Fantastic drawing @localola! Love it.

Thank you! Muah kiss flies into you inbox any moment

love your drawing. reminds me a lot of Calvin and Hobbes, I wish I could draw in that style :) you make it look effortless.

Thank you very much! After 14 years of endless drawing practise, some things become effortless, my dear zepplin <3 but not everything, by far not everything. I still got much to learn
