Contest Brief

** NOT GUARANTUEED BUT WE HAVE ALWAYS REWARDED ALL OUR CONTESTS **
* Also additional budget for winner with extra project *

Hi all,
We are looking to create 'long width wallpaper stories'.
this means that a whole kids-adventure will be shown when you look from left to right. It will not be in panels, but a single image. ( think 1:5 to 1:10 depending of length )

To select our artist that will make this first story ( and hopefully many to come ) we open a contest to 'sketch' the 3 main chars.
This will allow us to see the artstyle of the artist, as well as skill & feeling. This will allow us to select an artist, reward him for the first effort and we will continue afterwards with a project.

The full width wallpaper will also be passily slightly animated ( small details, coulds, fire, leaves, ... )
--------------------------------
CONTEST:
Create 3 Kids - Heroes ( this can be sketched - but we would like to be able to feel a certain style + coloring / texturing / shadowing /Shade ... ) - the more detailed / finished they are, the easier to choose.

/// Kid 1
Girl = +-8-10 years
shoulder Blond-golden curly hear
some cute freckles
Brown-Green eyes
character theme = adventure-princes ( not girly princes dress )

/// Kid 2
Boy
6-7 years
short blond hear - mini-tomahawk
brown-green eyes
character-theme = Indiana Jones ( adventure / dinosaurs / ... )

/// Kid 3
boy = 3-4 years
Short light brown hear
brown eyes
charachter-theme = Pirate

///EXTRA : please also add 'some' additional objects ( tree / cloud / chest / dragon / sword / crown / ... ) so we have an idea of ability / variations

--------------------------------
I have added SOME moodboard drawnings as guide - do not COPY - just use to understand that we want a nice, rich art style, without it being adult, but not to 'baby' also.
--------------------------------

IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW:
* this contest will be rewarded to the artist of our liking ( style matching )
* The winner of this contest will automaticlly also be selected for a full drawning ( + additional ones to come )
* Do not participate if you are not interested in making a nice drawing after that, and potentially a recurring work-offer every week/month/...
* In this fase of selection - no source files will be required - however, we might ask proof that you can draw what you submitted and not googling / livetracing.


Thank you, looking forward to it!

      Hi, this will be for digital Publishing yes, but not this contest, this is purely for artstyle / main character creation. Dont worry at this moment about source files, that will be for the next step

    Is the prize amount just for this initial phase, or is that how much you intend to pay for the finished wall art each time? Looks like a fun project.

      Hi David, this amount is just for the contest: 3 kids heroes.
      The main wallpaper will be a new / additional budget.

      Why split it up : the art style is key here; we want to find an art style we like and an artist we can continue with. We will not make just one wallpaper, but multiple over 2019.
