As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!

Contest lenght:
15. 10. 2009 - 31. 10. 2009 (closed now)

Introduction:
Due positive feedback and request we would now glad to annouce the second contest. Rules stay almost the same, but now with a bit different theme. Practically if we would manage to have even more contests, all of them will have the same main rules and one extra theme rule. Now we decided to have retro series, made or started (by ongoings) before the year 2000. Hope everybody knows and remember classics like Dragonball, Ranma, Cowboy Bebop or Evangelion :P

Who can apply:
No restrictions, just be sure that your work is your own and has high quality.

Rules:
*The scans used as sources must be present AnimePaper.
*The submitted entries must be just a character vector, no full wallpapers are allowed.
*The submitted entries must fulfill the requirements for vectors in AP's FAQ.
*Only one entry per person.
*One character only. Full or close-up, depends on you.
*No limitation in style, you also can use colored lines, gradients or light effects.
*No extra background decorations. Keep a solid one-color overlay arround it.
Round rule:
*The submitted entries must come from a gallery of a series made before the year 2000.

Prizes & voting:
After closing the contest a voting topic will be created. Everybody can vote, who is a member here at least for one month. Prizes will be banners with the achieved placing, and also everybody else will got one for just mere participating.

Important:
No need to write here who will or not will join, just submit your entries in this topic and we will take that as participating. Link a full resolution JPG version of your work from some free hosting site, so that everybody can zoom on it. (we recommend Imageshack, Picasaweb or if you have a DeviantArt account) You are free to make a new entry or updating the existing, until the contest is ongoing. Would be good if you could write a description and guess I don't need to remind you guys to sign your own works. Good luck!
---------------------------------------------------------------
Submit your entires in this topic. Voting is not possible until closing the contest. Possible questions PM to akiranyo or moutonzare. Not-related posts or spam will be reported and deleted.
To help a bit I linked a CHRONOLOGICAL LIST OF ANIMES.

What anime is that from? You’re telling me that you don’t know who Rei Ayanami is… I hope you’re just joking….

By the way, nice vector…

Does it? :O
Sorry, I didn't saw such rule out there, but if it really have to be submitted to AP then I'll have to remove entry afterall, because I'm not going to submit it to gallery :(

You don't have to remove the entry. I think, only the scan has to be on AP. At the first vecta desu contest you also didn't have to submit to the gallery.

That's right. Only the original scan has to be on AP. You aren't obligated to submit your entry afterward ^^
