300 dollar 200 dollar 100 dollar prizes Sneeze Contest until December 23rd

[mysteryserpent]

Anything can be an entry. A sketch, a short story, an audio sneeze, ai post, color comic, an animation, the more any type of entry has effort put into it, the more chance the entry has to win the main prizes. All forms of art will be accepted. PLEASE do not repost old art to make multiple contest entries.I have had problems with this in the past. Doing new things with old art is good. Just reposting the exact same old art in the exact same way is not good.

Most of my favorite characters are female but any character can be sneezing.

-The main rule is pick one of the contest topics to share a sneeze for your entry.
-Please let me know when you finish an entry by sending me a note or message me with your entry.
-Each individual contest entry I want to give support to. Each individual entry will get 20 deviantart points or a retweet and a chance to win one of the main place prizes.
-A person can make more than one entry if they choose to. Each individual entry will have a chance to win.

CONTEST TOPICS:

1. Pepper. Any OC or any fanart of a character that is sneezing because of pepper.


2. Smell. An aroma of any kind to sniff  that can cause a sneeze with any OC or any fanart of a character.


3. Nose tickle. Create a scene where a nose is tickled by anything to cause a sneeze. A feather, hair, a kiss on the nose, the tickle can be anything you imagine.


4. Goldenrod or any pollen flower. Goldenrod is one of the first flowers that I think of that has pollen, but there are many amazing flowers. Create a scene where pollen is causing a character to sneeze.


5. Game. Create any game that has a character sneeze. I have seen various online games. A minigame like warioware, Bowser Inside Story minigame, a small video game cutscene. RPG maker games, adobe flash games, sprite artwork. Point and click game. The game can be any type of game. The game can be 5 seconds long. The game can be minutes long.


6. Boss fight. Create fanart or any kind of scene where a boss fight has a sneeze help defeat a boss. The boss themself could sneeze, someone fighting the boss could be the one to sneeze.


7. Giant size. The character can be giant or a small character could have a giant size sneeze.


8. My ideas topic. For anyone that needs something more specific of what to draw. I can say a character I like or something specific I am thinking about.

Someone made a different short story for my contest and I drew a quick sketch as a gift. A sketch like this is an example of an entry anyone can try to do. It may be little but I still appreciate anything that a person tries to do with a new sneeze idea.

A different short story entry.

Someone shared a note with me with a very early WIP of their entry. It is only 2 seconds long so far with 2 frozen still images but it is a start of a new part of a sneeze game from the past. Any kind of sneeze game takes time to make. I have no idea what the game will turn out like, but I was thankful they shared a WIP with me to let me know they are trying to do something.

[Rainberry]

Awesome! I am excited to see the results!

[mysteryserpent]

Thank you for your comments! I really appreciate that ^^

So far not much has changed but there are entries that people have mentioned to me. I can’t see the future, but I am thankful for any sketch, writing, or any type of entry people can do.

Over time it has gotten more difficult for people to be motivated to do literally any idea with a sneeze.

That's really sad.  Especially in the kink world, it seems like artist's come and then go, removing all evidence of their existence. It's really a shame.

[MasterXtreme]

Yeah, there are a handful of consistent artists and that is about it.

You are right, I agree with you. Life outside of online happens, but sometimes it's other reasons besides IRL that people go.

I will continue to try to support others in the ways I can. This contest is one way I try to reach out to...literally anyone. I am not picky with my contests. I try to give as much freedom to people to be welcome to the idea to do something with a sneeze.

Motivation for doing anything can be hard to gain and so easy to lose motivation.

Yeah, there are a handful of consistent artists and that is about it.

I agree here too. I want to reach out to both the consistent artists and artists who are more shy about their posts.

All I can do is try to do the things I am able to do. I don't want to go overboard or be a pest to anyone, but at the same time I don't want to sit and do nothing but wait XD

[Umeko]

Nyeeeee yeah I started that animation *checks* 6th of February with the thought of *incase a contest is happening I'll enter this might be done before then* and took 7 months on the dot. Did my best
