Question: May I switch out my entry? I'm not doing it rn but I did say I'd replace it with something better. If not, that's fine by me, too. I want something goofier hehe

Since we can have more than one entry I'd like to offer you this as well.

Love comes in all forms. Here's God Emperor of Dune serenading to his fiancee Hwi Noree (non-canon).

An unlikely match.

You chose the Concept of Love contest~!

Your heart can barely contain it !

[Back to Announcement Thread]

- - -

What is love?

Butterflies in your stomach, sweaty palms, or maybe just a simple day at your favorite spot with a special someone. Love can be simple at times, and complicated at others. Love is messy, love is sweet, love is unique.

Love can be powerful and stir emotions inside someone that they never knew existed. An entire life can become the epitome of a single day because of the enigma called love.

art by @Kengabr

What does love feel like?

What is love to you?

This side of the contest should be focused on experimenting. Love is as vague as it is unique, and there is an incredible amount of ways to approach this subject. Use colors, themes, and different experiences to your advantage. The drawing does not have to be light-hearted or frolic-y; you can draw depressive and emotionally heavy subjects ^^

Obviously a lot of what we learned about love stems from our early experiences, so themes like high school and children being adorable is not off the table, but for the love of god do not depict minors with adult themes.

+ WHAT TO DRAW:
- Anything related to love or its concepts.

+ RULES:
- Do not depict minors with adult themes.
- NO NUDITY, NO NSFW
- Character models must be OCs you own or ones used with permission.

+ DEADLINE:
- The deadline is February 13th at 11:59pm PST

+ HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR ENTRY:
- Your entry must be uploaded to your profile AND posted in this thread
- Include the tag "concept of love 2021"

+ PRIZES:

If you would like to add to the prize pool, feel free to PM me ^^

+ JUDGING:
- Judging will be based on originality.

Thank you everyone for your time, and I look forward to your entries!!

Happy 2021 ^^



ah here is my piece its a work in progress this is a place holder if I don't get finished by the thirteenth though aside from the first panel this is roughly what I want to create I still think its kind of cool though yeah expect an improved piece of this


This was a fun one! It feels good to be entering community stuff again! This could have been clearer and a bit more polished, but I had fun and it was good to work off the art cobwebs!

In trying to describe what love was, I settled on the idea of a lens, for the mind rather than the eye of course, through which you might view an aspect of the world of your choosing. This character, affectionately nicknamed "Loverboy," has one such lens for all of time and space. What he intends to do about it remains to be seen.

Just saw that I am able to have more than one entry, so I posted my most up-to-date entry rn. ft. Arle, again. Should I put in a 3rd entry ( a picture of genki and rosemary dancing) or nah?

Since I did my wish of luck and love for everyone that's entered this contest so far, much earlier and a few pages ago. I thought I'd do something else commemorate the last day before the deadline. This is a little funny, but it sums up the anticipation I am sure you must feel. Even if you're not a fan of Les Miserables, the following song I am about to post from Youtube will relate to you. One Day More, Les Miserables

I wish you all the best of luck and I certainly hope that wish is reciprocated in turn.

Also I figured if others were doing more than one entry I might as well do one too.

This one I did more for kicks, but I thought "Why not."

I think I went pretty strong for showing the concept of love. I put a pretty contructive vision of what kind of love we see in this picture. Yeah Final Bosses are scary and thats why friends are there for. To stay with you and cheering you the most they can. Thank Æthraniss to be the best for Licx ^^


Here if you want more deep description of my thinking about it ^^:

SUPER Last minute but i saw i still had time to submit to this! Here is my piece :)iu_241052_7940599.jpg


iu_241081_8036308.jpgI rushed this to barely make it. Hopefully, it can still be submitted


For All

iu_241083_6407690.jpg

Love is in all and shall be spread to all, no matter the origin nor the circumstance.


This illustration was supposed to be finished hours ago, unfortunately, we got a blackout, and we only got lights back on an hour or so. After rushing it like crazy, I somewhat finished it, even if with kinda bad quality and late.


Good luck to y'all and Happy Valentine's Day

Oh boy oh man this was a challenge, but I love how it turned out!

Here's my entry!

He gives him a hug and he tells him it'll be alright and he closes his eyes and he tries to pretend that it's gonna be okay. At least... they still have each other, even if there's nothing else left.
