The "Personal Pin-Up Style" contest is meant to showcase the different styles of many of the greatest DA artists i've withnessed, popular and underground alike, in a same theme and condition so that their personal style can be more evident and apreciated.
That is why it would be an honor to have you participating with your very own "Personal Pin-Up Style" for this contest.
Now of the the technical part:
-BASES-
The contest's thematic is meant to show the different apreciation of each artist on a same theme, it was decided the base would be a character that was not mainstream or widely known but of wich i coud provide enough samples, that is why we choose Valeria to be the Contest's Thematic Character.

you know buddy, it looks like you are commissioning people here, I don't mind, but you should not call that a "contest" with prizes and all...
I don't want to be rude, but it's unlikely that hundreds of people would be intrested in your sketches, especially if they don't know you from adam and never had comments from you.
Actually, I do commissions for free, plus, I seem to like your character, redhead, vampire, all that I like... I will try a shot on this, but I don't fit into a "contest"
Well, actually this "contest" is an excuse to see my character drawn by other artists so i can see wich details of her are more eye-catching and how other people percieve her out of my drawings and that lil description. In return, im giving away a good lot of free comissions for those five my judging team (a handful of friends and i) likes the best.
It would be a honor to have my Valeria drawn by you, its perfectly ok with me
