Calling all serious set makers! {WINNER'S ANNOUNCED!}

[Twinkle]

Yes, I've decided to have a mega, wonderful, fun-filled account clearout as I don't play Neopets anymore. So I guess you guys are the lucky ones huh?

Right, most important thing first: PRIZES! I've never been much of an avid Neopets player so I haven't made that many NPs but I think we have enough for a spiffy contest.

1st Prize: 50k
2nd Prize: 20k
3rd Prize: 5k

AND I'll be giving out a special prize for the most original entry.

So Dawn, I'm going to jump on the band-wagon and naff your cool colour coding idea.

Things I want a lot of will be RED, things I like but only want a few of will be VIOLET and things I only want a couple of will be BLUE. Got it? Good.

Topics

Music
My favourite bands are:

Muse
Coldplay
Nirvana

If you're stuck for sub-text ideas, then use any lyric from any of these bands and I'll love it!

Fairies

Fairies
Fairies
and more fairies!

I absolutely adore fairies. As mystical and mysterious and beautiful as possible please!

Seasons

Winter
Autumn
Spring
Summer

Fruit

Kiwi
Lemon
Melon

Other Stuff

I love photographs, especially ones with interesting contrasts in.
Nightime/Dusk
Skyline
Sunsets
Ice/Snow
Leaves
Flowers

Just anything naturey and beautiful really.

I also love anything twinkley, glittery, sparkley and glamourous.

Misc.
Theatre
Dancing
Disco
Rock music

Things I don't like
Neopets.
Pop stars.
Not keen on anime unless it's beautiful and meaningful.

I also like small sets that are not just your usual rectangle shape. Just make it orignal and different. Try to go for a completely different style than you normally go for. This is a contest to challenge you after all.
The person who I feel has captured my personality most will get the orignality prize.

If the demand is great for this competition, I may have to up the prizes. Closing date is to be decided.

I hope I have captured your imaginations, if you're stuck on anything then don't hesitate to ask. Now go and spread your artisical genius!

Any limit on number of entries? I've got a couple of ideas bouncing around in my head, not sure which to pull out at the moment so I'd rather not decide .

[Twinkle]

None at all! Obviously only one of your entries can win a prize though.

[Maryann]

Alright, I made this set, and only afterwards realized it didn't match.



And so I redid it and made it matching:



Hope you like 'em.

[Starchaser]

I think I'll probably try to enter at some point... if I have time.

[Twinkle]

Hey nice work Snivellus! [hint] And I'd love to see an entry off you Starchaser! [/hint] Keep 'em coming people!!

[Shifty]

I have a question... You do like faeries, but you don't like anime...
Most of the faerie pics i'v seen are anime, so are those the kind you DON'T want?

[Twinkle]

I like fairies full stop . I can tolerate some anime if it's meaningful and beautiful. Fairies and mystical looking women (Eg Shadowfare's set) are the exception

[Riddikulus]

Ooh, I just might have to enter! Muse and Coldplay = good good good. Expect an entry tonight/tomorrow/one of these days.. lol. XD

One question, though - can you define theater? I mean, is there a certain play you like, or a certain actor, or just theater in general? And do you have a particular favorite song by Muse or Coldplay? 'Cause I could definitely get some inspiration there!

[meowth1982]

This took me hours to do and I still don't like it LOL!

[Twinkle]

With theatre, I'd love to capture the atmosphere of being on stage with lights shining down on me. It's not plays, musicals or actors, just the actual physicality and feelings of being on stage. *shrugs*

And meowth, WOW! That's amazing! So cool! Thanks for entering!

[hyperflutterby]

I'm going to enter eventually... I'm trying to find a... appropriate... picture of a faerie. So far the ones that I'm googling are just barely meet decency standards.

[Starchaser]

I think I may have had just slightly too much fun with this...


Hope you like it!

[Sapphire Faerie]

That was fun. =)

[Twinkle]

Oh my gosh! Those last two entries are stunning! I can see this is going to be way more difficult to judge than I first thought...
