Yes I haven't exactly hit a milestone or whatever
But I never did anything for 100, 200 or 300 followers
So consider it a very late celebration

Now although some of you might not like the idea, here's what this contest is about

Designing a character!
Now you might remember me saying over and over again how I'm planning to write a story
And like any normal story, it needs a protagonist

His name is Armono, but every design I've made of him just doesn't work for me
Here's his most recent "reference"

You can use this as help

The whole point is, is that you design an updated version of him

Rules:
There really aren't much
Use whatever colors you like for him, though it is preferable that you keep some brown and/or orange on him
Nothing too bright! Nothing too dull either

This is just something you guys can go crazy with! You don't have to follow the picture, it is optional
Add whatever you like, colorful tails, excessive markings, spikes everywhere, as long as it fits the criteria, it's good!

Some personality information/things that could also help:
Armono is a member of a royal family and a general, so he isn't weak or cowardly
He is a leader by blood and he isn't afraid to show it
Although he may seem scary, he is fair and kind to his followers and fierce to his enemies
I did plan to show you all some color palettes you could use, but I dunno if you'd want that and would instead want to use something you found (if you do, them let me know! I'll upload them in another chapter)

Soooo prizes!

1st place: 150 DA points, two fullbodies, three headshots and a bust
2nd place: 100 DA points, one fullbody, two headshots, and a bust
3rd place: 50 DA points, two headshots

It's not much but hey! It's something

Annnnnd the due date is: June 12th (extensions can be made, please let me know beforehand)

If you do plan to join, please comment below! I will be making a list and keeping track (cause I'm trying to be more organized woo) and if you end up wanting to back out, then that's fine too! Just let me know

Sorry if the chapter seems a bit disorganized
The last time I tried to host a contest was about a year or two ago whoops
