Design A Character Contest - Week 5

The Contest

This contest is open to artists of any level, background and drawing style.
Traditional Art will be accepted as well as Digital art.
Every week I will post a new challenge and want you to design your own character based on the given theme.

Every weeks contest will have one challenge of the following themes:

The judging

One of the main changes I talked about, is the time span for working on the entries and the time span for user votings.

I think every participant will be happy to have more time to create their entries.

So this weeks Contest begins on Thursday 18th of January.
On Tuesday 23rd of January I will post the Top 3 and allow steemit users to vote for the final placements.
The Winners will be announced on Thursday 25th of January.

The Prizes

Another change to make the contest more attractive is that from now on all Top 3 entries will get a reward.

The winners will be announced on next Thursday and will be rewarded with
70% of all SBD raised on that weeks #designacharacter contest-posts.

The prizes will split up as follows:

So keep upvoting and resteeming the contest-posts, to make the prizes as big as possible ;)

But now to this weeks Challenge:

This weeks theme is the Style Challenge:

The Style Challenge works like this:

In the Style Challenge, I will give you three different Styles.

1.) One cartoon/manga/comic Artist, Series or Studio Style
_{(e.g. The Simpsons, Bill Watterson, Disney, Frank Miller...)}

2.) One Modern Days Artist Style
_{(e.g. Luis Royo, Jean Giraud, H.R. Giger, @beekart ;) ...)}

3.) One Classic Artist Style
_{(e.g. Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol...)}

You can make up to Two characters/entries per given Style.
Bonus in judgement will be considered if you try to make one character in all three different styles!

Here are some examples how your character could look like:

2. Marko Djurdjevic

One of my favourite modern days artist and character designer.
(Have a look at what he has done for the Pen and Paper RPG "Degenesis") It's AWESOMESAUCE!)

3. Max Ernst

Great german painter (2nd April 1891 – 1st April 1976).
Ernst was a primary pioneer of the Dada movement and Surrealism.

I think, out of these, all of you would find a style that fits. ;)

You can make up to two entries/posts per given style.
Thats a total of 6 possible entries.

So I hope you have as much fun as last week participating in this contest!
Even when the theme is not as fluffy as last theme ;D
