NEW:
Deadline met
If you have your entry started but unfinished, you'll have time till Feb 4th max to finish it, you just have to send me link to the WIP as soon as possible and tell when you'll be finished. So don't give up too easily^^ Just remember to inform me so we're awared of such situation. We can't really make the judgement before at least I am done with my exams anyway.
EVERYONE who entered will get a little single character portrait sketch^^ the raffe winner will get it coloured and maybe slightly shaded.
So you can start thinking which character you choose^^
the journal got formatted and shortened to make it look less scary. Info that not everyone might be interested in is now available in links.
The original article can still be found >here<
By entering this contest you take part in a sketch raffle: fav.me/d6xjpjw !

Better ask than err, right?
