IT'S CONTEST TIME!!!

April 8th, 2009

You could be the a new character for the Princess Planet! (Or your likeness anyway)

What you get if you win:

I will draw you as the Shoemaker based on the classic fairy tale about The Shoemaker and the Elves. You will appear in at least 2 strips shortly after you’ve won the contest. I may or may not continue to use the character as time goes on depending on whether I think any more jokes about shoes or if I become tongue-tied. Haha. Get it?

How to enter:

1. Be over 17 years old.

2. If you are not already a member of the Facebook group, join up.

3. Post a photo to the Facebook group of you with a mythical creature of some sort.

4. Make a wall post in the Facebook group naming your favourite Princess Planet character or favourite strip (or both).

5. Do this all before May 21 when I will choose one winner at random.

Rules:

  1. By entering this contest you give me legal permission to use your likeness as a character in my comic strip, The Princess Planet. I do not have to give you any money for this even if I make money from this. You’re doing this for the fame and fun.
  2. The winner will have to supply me with 4 photos of themselves in which I can clearly see their face from the front, profile, three-quarter and one where I can get a general idea of their body. You can’t send photos of you in sunglasses, or dressed up as the Grimace or something like that. I need to be able to see your features. If you’re not happy with the way you look, this contest probably isn’t for you. If the winner fails to provide appropriate photos within two weeks of being notified of winning, they forfeit the contest and I’ll pick another random winner instead.
  1. You may enter as many times as you want but that will not increase your chances of winning. I’ll still only put your name in the randomizing hat once.
  1. I make no promises to be 100% accurate with my cartoon. I will do the best I can to capture the likeness of the winner. I’m not going to try to capture your personality, just your apperance.

Good luck, tell your friends and have fun!
