Hello everyone, Ivy here!
COMPETITION EXTENDED FOR THE NEW RELEASE OF THE PORCUPINE SPIRIT BEASTS! :D You have 2 more weeks to submit a total of 12 screenshots!!!
I am hosting a competition for the most epic screenshots of hunters with their spirit beast companions. Once all screenshots are submitted, I'm going to create a poll for the top 3 of each spirit beast narrowed down by a panel of judges. After the best 3 are narrowed down, the COMMUNITY gets to vote on the most epic screenshot. Winners will receive a small token of gratitude yet to be decided and recognition on the forums. The winning screenshot for each epic spirit beast companion will be used to create original artwork / fan art!!
Rules:
- Any drama will NOT be tolerated. This competition is meant to be fun, it is made for fun and enjoyment. All posts containing rude comments will be deleted.
- All screenshots must contain an image of 1 spirit beast and 1 hunter.
- The owner of the majestic creature MUST have some kind of transmogrification set, that would look epic when rendered into artwork.
- Scenery is a must, please find an epic zone in a beautiful location where you take the screenshot. Zones that match the personality of your pet as you imagine it would be excellent.
- Screenshots must be great quality with a size greater than 800x800 px. Images may not be any larger than 1800x1800 pixels.
- Screenshots may not be edited in any way other than sizing and cropping.
- Images taken from google or other sources WILL NOT be tolerated. Trust me, we WILL check.
Submissions:
- The deadline for submissions is the 15th of May by 11:59PM ST.
- Submissions are to be submitted in this thread. 3 submissions per Spirit beast, with a total of 12 per Hunter. Any new submissions will be deleted after the first post.
- ALL SUBMISSIONS MUST BE CREATED IN 1 Post per hunter, with a maximum of 9 screenshots per post (or three screenshots per pet if you don't want to take pics with them all).
- SCREENSHOTS MUST BE HIDDEN IN A SPOILER in order to decrease loading time on this thread.
- Post the Pet's name (according to their original name, not your name), Your hunter's name, and server underneath each spoiler (not inside) in bullet points using the LIST function.
- Submissions can be edited and screenshots can be updated up until the DEADLINE.
- If you plan to submit screenshots for all 12 spirit beasts, please create a spoiler for that pet and fill in the information below it, even if you don't have a screenshot yet. You can always edit later.
- EXAMPLE SUBMISSION provided below.
Suggestions:
- Screenshots of you or your pet or both in action would be excellent.
- Remember, These screenshots are meant to be created FOR artwork, find a setting that would look great when rendered into art.
- Don't go at it alone, a friend may do a better job at taking a screenshot while you pose!
- Female hunter Tauren look stupid.

CALL FOR ARTISTS!
- We are looking for skilled artists interested in creating digital artwork according to a specific style. If you are interested please send me a private message, and we can talk more about what I'm looking for. If you are skilled enough, I am willing to give commission. Prizes will also be given to the artists, still thinking about a seperate competition to hold for artists.
Example Submission:

**All prizes have yet to be decided and this post will be updated when I decide on the gift. Any and all artwork that is created, is made as artwork alone and any payment received is a GIFT. The artist will receive complete recognition; they are allowed to sign the image at the bottom right corner.
**A separate competition will be held for NORMAL beasts/pets depending on the outcome of this one.
