So, according to my poll, I'm going to extend the contest deadline 'till march 29! This is because there are a couple people who need a few more days AND because I like the idea it will end on my birthday ^_^
No more extensions after 29/03!!!! So don't even ask!


Theme:
It is simple: draw my Original Character Altair! If you think dragons are awesome go with her God Form, if you feel more comfortable drawing humans, she also has a human form! She has an animal and anthro form so you can really draw whatever you want! You can draw her alone or together with her mate Terazed!
All forms of art are accepted: drawings, crafts, photomanipulation, 3d, animation, pixel art, literature, plushes, sculptures, anything!

Character Sheets:

Altair


Terazed:


Both in human form:


Both in anthro form:


Guidelines for partecipants who'd like to draw both characters...
...and need to know all the possible combinations according to their story and evolution.
Personally I like to draw them both in animal form, both in human form, both anthro etc, but I love adult utahraptor Terazed with Altair in any of her winged forms (God or Semi-God)!
If you want to make me a surprise and do something completely different, here are all the possible combinations:
Altair God Form + Terazed (mature, human, animal)
Altair Semi-God + Terazed (any form, any age)
Altair animal form + Terazed (animal, mature, human)
Altair human form + Terazed (mature, human, animal)
Now impress me!
If you need specific information on any character or have any doubt, drop me a note and I'll be more than happy to tell you any additional detail!

Judgment:
I will consider the originality and effort over skill and tecnique. Originality and emotion is the key!
Colored and B&W works are great! I'll accept linearts and sketch works but the more refined is the work, more chances it has to win!
Judges will be and some of my friends.
Like the last year, you will get extra judgement points if you draw both Altair and Terazed together. Extra points if you draw a background too
