Rules are...
1. Must have at least one Bleach character in the piece. It's totally up to you who you want to draw! But please, keep it all Bleach. This is a Bleach fanart contest, please don't include other mangas/animes/original characters/etc in it.
2. You may include more than one character, if you'd like. Extra characters don't have to be in an originally designed outfit.
3. The outfit must be original! Remember, creativity will earn you major points! May it be skater, gothic, cultural, or whatever. The sky is the limit! Using fashion magazines for references is fine.
4. Must be colored.
5. Please no yaoi/yuri/hentai/etc.
6. Go crazy with the composition! Traditional media, digital media, mixed media, collage, etc is all good!
7. Judging will be based on originality, quality and creativity!
8. This is fan art, yes, but I will accept only original artwork. No tracing, no coloring Kubo Tite's black and white pages, no plagiarism, no copying directly from a reference. I know the manga and anime very well and I can certainly catch colored black and whites and direct copies. References are free to use, of course! But don't copy line for line or something...
9. Only one entry per person. Collabs are fine, but I will only send the prize to one address. You collaborating guys will have to share somehow.
10. If you win, I will ask for name and address to send the prize to you! Shipping is on me.
11. When submitting, please include your name or penname, title of the work, website (if you have one), and a story/explanation/comment behind the artwork. I love reading the history behind the piece.
12. Deadline is December 5th. If I do not recieve 15 entries by that date... Uhhh, I'm gonna have to think of something. :\

Submitting entries...
Please use the form:
Name/Penname
Title of Artwork
Website (if you have one)
Comment/Story/Explanation of the Artwork
And email it as an attachment or link to oolongcha at gmail dot com with the subject, "Bleach Fashion Contest". (I might miss it if you don't include this subject!) Or send the submission through a devnote. I will send a confirmation email if I have recieved your entry.
