:!:i changed a few things, in particular the prizes, and the due date. i'm sure the whole two of you are thrilled about that... please read the FAQs before asking questions :0! :!:

DUE DATE: AUGUST 20th (celebrating my last art class for the summer)

ALRIGHTY
because i'm a being who needs another stroke to my ego. i'm holding a contest. you will see the ego connection thing soon. i shall be the judge : D! first of all. the prizes SUCK i cannot emphasize that much, just to give you heads up on it.

PRIZES - mind you i can't draw porn, so..
1st prize: ANY kind of doodle WITH background - 3 characters tops OR 5-paged tops one-shot you want (as long as the media stays with either pencil art or cged drawing; other than that, i'm cool, no MUTILATION D:!!)
2nd prize: ANY kind of doodle WITHOUT background - 2 characters tops OR 3-paged tops one shot (same condition as above)
3rd prize: pencil doodle WITHOUT background - 2 characters tops!

now that we got that out of the way! the contest theme is.. drumroll, please. fine. *drumrolls* RINGO KAIKEN (tell me, who's not surprised?) yeah, seriously, i'm basically asking for you guys to fill the world with even more kaiken on the loose. not as if my gallery's not flooded by him already.

RULES:
1. drawing has to center him. obviously. i would include writing/fanfic as well, but alas, not a lot of people know him "personally" so it shall stay with drawings.
2. he can be in ANY kind of settings: close to death, mutilated (chopped up apples do NOT count, student yuka), chased by wolves down a mountain, trying to fend off a tentacle monster, ANYTHING.
3. want him in a pairing? sure, why the hell not. i have no preference (this is a total bs, you get cookies when it involves one of the 4kbois excluding him) at all. except for tentacles. as much as i love it. no. n--okay, fine, tentacles are in. but don't think you'll win automatically!
4. just draw a kaiken and you're good to enter the contest. i'll take in notebook doodles! hell, some of my best are in my notes.
5. ....um. have fun, god damnit.

FAQ
who's the judge?
ME~! though i'm probably going to need some help judging!
but didn't you say you'll be busy over the summer? how are you going to do the prizes?!
um.. i'm magical.
are there different categories in the contest? chibi, couples, etc.?
depends whether or not i get entries such as that. but as for the moment, i'm just looking for a kaiken, that screams "i'm kaiken and i'm going to bitch slap you to kingdom come."
how many entries can we send in?
as many as you wish!
how do we send in the entries?
just note me up with the subject: APPLES!
so when is the due date?
AUGUST 20th
why the HELL are you doing this!?
because i want to see kaiken drawn in different style than my own. and i want fanarts >_>
but.. but the prizes suck, why would i waste time on this contest?!
because.. be-be.. ;_; ENTER DAMNIT.
NEVAR!
YOU SUCK!
