EDITED: Okay now I may actually want to get a character with wings...;w; I've been practicing them and I really want my own now ahhh <3 ( Preferably canine/dragon mix ~ ) But don't worry contestants who've already entered! I'm still not that good at wings and I still very much love drawing regular ol' doggies :3 Everyone still has equal chance /)u(\

EDITED: Got some Tutorial(s) to help you with designing! .: Designing a Character Tutorial :. by Spunky-Mutt

EDITED: Added more tips! Also; I reworded the " NO limits " rule to " Submit as many designs as you like " because that was confusing I'd imagine haha. Good luck to everyone ~

I'll try to add more tips and I'm going to make a short tutorial on designing. ( Or how I design. ) It should prove to be useful to less experienced designers <3

EDITED: Added more examples!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION + TIPS

- I hate girls please no girls I'm so serious.

- Please no Humanoids, Anthros, or Humans. You will have 0 chance of winning if you submit with any of these.

- Hybrids are welcome, but I much prefer Canines or original species with canine in the mix.

- I'm picky about wings. I don't have any characters with wings now and I don't know that I ever will.

- I really want a cool character with a combination of blue and green with some natural colors.

- I also really want a super cute but also scary looking design.

- I LOVE BLUE bluelbuelbuelbuelbue<3

- No full out sparkle dogs.

- I don't care for fully natural designs.

- I love designs with spots, not always stripes, but a lot of African/Wild animal natural designs look cool with one/two vibrant colors.

- I don't like a lot of accessories or feathers.

- I hate extra/less limbs or eyes. NOT what I'm looking for in a unique/scary design XD

- You're allowed to ask me questions for guidance on designs! Just make sure it's in the comment section below so that everyone can see and have the same advantage as you.
