How do you get some free art from me? Follow these steps:
1) Post a COMMENT on THIS BLOG POST that says what you would like.
Your comment should follow this format carefully:
Character (limit: 1): Write your character's name here. Fanart is preferred, but OCs are good too.
Type of Expansion: Write the type of expansion you would like to occur here. Weight gain is preferred, but I'm open to other kinds too. If there's any question as to whether or not I'd be willing to do a type of expansion, feel free to contact me first via deviantart or hisano_x@yahoo.com.
Other Special Instructions: Write any info you want here. Special outfits. Special body types. Anything to clarify the above information. Reference pics are immensely helpful. Please do not include special instructions that exceed the character limit of 1.
OTHER RULES: You can only post ONE request. The request must be posted ON THIS BLOG POST. Notes, emails, and comments elsewhere DO NOT COUNT. If your request does not follow the format listed above, then you may be disqualified due to your request being unclear. So follow the format!
2) HERE IS THE IMPORTANT PART. When you comment, you will be entered into a random drawing to receive your request for FREE. After I have received enough comments, I will close the giveaway by posting the word "CLOSED" on this blog post. Then I will perform the drawing.
The drawing works as follows:
A) When you post a comment, your comment will be assigned a number.
B) When the giveaway is closed, a random number will be generated to determine the winner.
C) If your number is the random number generated, YOU WIN. You get your request for free.
You might be wondering:
1) What will my request look like when you finish?
Glad you asked. It will be similar to the pieces below. Simple or no background. Line/sketch drawing. A few panels depicting a character expanding.
2) Are there any restrictions on content?
One character only. Fanart preferred but not required. If you have any other concerns about whether or not I will be willing to draw what you request, please message me.
3) I commented last time and didn't win. Do I have to post my request again?
Yes. Each of these "Free Art Giveaway" posts is considered a separate giveaway. Therefore, only comments on THIS POST will count toward this giveaway. I know it's a pain to post it again, but there are handy "copy and paste" functions available on most computer systems that should help you do it in mere seconds. It would take much more time for me to sift through old comments for your previous entry. That said, DO NOT just post "I want what I requested last time" unless you want your comment to be ignored harder than anything has ever been ignored before.
OKAY, I think that about sums things up. So comment away, if you wish! In a few days, I will write CLOSED on the title of the blog post, and I will announce the winner! Looking forward to see what you guys come up with!
4) How is the winner determined at random?
When you comment, your entry is added to an Excel spreadsheet, and is thus assigned a number. When the giveaway is closed, I tally up the number of entries and use the RANDBETWEEN function to generate a number between 1 and the number of entries. The random number that is generated determines the winner.
WANT TO INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING?
Your comment will be entered into the giveaway MORE THAN ONCE if you follow these steps:
1) Participate in the giveaway by following the above instructions.
2) Make a donation to support my artwork on paypal (hisano_x@yahoo.com) while one of these giveaways is open.
3) INCLUDE YOUR USERNAME in the comments/notes section of your paypal donation. This will ensure that your entry will be given the appropriate boost in odds.
For every $1.00 USD that you donate, your comment will be entered into the drawing an additional time. That means that if you donate $2.00 USD, you will secure three numbers for your entry, thereby boosting your odds. Donate $5.00 USD, and you will secure six numbers, and so on...
Please donate in one dollar increments only--it makes things simpler that way. You can make donations like $1.75, or $2.83 if you REALLY want to... but that 75 or 83 cents will not earn you an extra entry into the giveaway. You will only be entered an additional time for every full dollar that I receive.
Also, a point of clarification: Giving a donation does not mean that you can post multiple comments with multiple requests on this post. Your donation will grant you greater odds of winning for ONE ENTRY ONLY. If you make multiple requests anyway, your donation will count toward your first entry only.
I know there are a lot of specific rules listed here, but I want to be straightforward about how this giveaway will work. I want to avoid misunderstandings as much as possible and make this giveaway fun and easy for all of us to participate in and enjoy. HOORAY FOR COMMUNICATION!
Anyway, this is one small way that I wanted to give back to people who are generous enough to donate and follow my work. It thrills me to no end that you would show appreciation for the artwork that I share freely by giving a little something.
Enjoy, and best of luck to you!
