Gheorghe Pandia

Sakimi Chan

yeah you just have to be in the group by April 30th to participate: ) the contest will run till late june :)

Sakimi Chan

Where do we upload our entries? And is it possible to view other people's entries as well?

Thank you for letting me know, I'll ask patreon staff about the contest. :(

Sakimi Chan

Hey, Sakimi Chan, I love your work, but I wanted to warn you that this contest might be against Patreon rules. Patreon counts things like this for which you must pay for a chance to win as a thing against the rules. I had almost the same thing as you and I got warned by a person about Patreon rules, so I wrote Patreon support and asked and got an answer: ,,Yes, it's against our rules" so I had to remove it. I highly suggest you to contact Patreon about your contest before anything goes wrong! ;u;

Does joining the facebook group count as you've entered the contest or we have to post something in the group before April 30th?

Hello, Abu the contest is still going. :)

Sakimi Chan

How much time more/minus to be approved in the group of FB?

Is it too late to become a patron to sign up for this contest?

Your my first fan, friend, and your my first patron I am new here on this website

Ms. Sakimi Chan plz help me I've been clicking on links for so long going in circles trying to sign up. I wasn't able to join the fb group and I can't find the group on DA. I'm sorry I'm confused &gt;.&gt;

Rainy Alexandria

I just set that up :), thank you for your patience !

Sakimi Chan

Any update about the DA Group as an alternative from Facebook for subscribing to the contest?

AlphaPizza

yes that's right : ) you are allowed 3 entries !

Sakimi Chan

you are welcome. :D

Sakimi Chan

YUE!!!..Im back..thanks for this opportunity..I will do my best for it..thanks for the help with your tutorials..:D

Christian Amiel

Awesome! I'll totally join! :D All you need to be is a tier 2 patron to be able to enter right? I don't have to fill out any additional forms or submit any additional fees other than what I pledge per month do I? Let me know! I'm gonna get started on a painting asap! :)

Hello Mike, You have pledged for Tier 1 of Term 9. let me know if this was a mistake so we can fix it. Thank you :)

Sakimi Chan

Sakimi I still haven't received the links for Term 9

Boombap007

I applied to the facebook fanpage but it's still pending. Is there any problem?

nice art

She's at/been at Sakura con, so there has been some delays.

CandleBriar

Just wondering when I can expect to get the NSFW Sona picture from term 9. My pledge processed a few days ago but I haven't recieved anything.

She's at the Sakura Con, because of this there is a delay, if I understood this correctly.

Shiroi Akuma

Hello Sakimi I pledged for Term 9 and was charged. But I never received the links. Hope to hear back soon. Thank you :)

Boombap007

Traditional means every other 2-D material that's not digital. So pencil, paper, markers, paint etc. :)

Is this contest only for digital media? Or is pencil and paper allowed? Not sure what you mean by traditional.

Haha. Thank you for the support! XD

Sakimi Chan

keep going

If I start pledge starting from April 19th, it won't be possible to participate the contest, is it right? I have to be a patron for 6 full terms, right? l Just making sure if I have enough money ... xD !

I know you probably have been asked this many times probably. I started with this most recent term, Term 11 I believe, and will seriously follow you until I run out of money. x) I'm still allowed to participate in this contest though? It actually fits with one of my dreams I had recently and want to try drawing them! Also, I love your art. :D

800x800 isn't considered a high resolution, try something above 1500x1500 at least

Fay Evini

I like that idea. Not sure how she wants to do it though.

John Slaughter

Tier 2 is $5, not $10.

John Slaughter

Minimum $5 pledge is Tier 2.

John Slaughter

Yes that is the condition :)

Sakimi Chan

The only reason I set that as a requirement is to prevent those who only want to join to win money , but since I know youve been here for me since the start, this condition does not apply to you :) feel free to cancel and join towards the end!

Sakimi Chan

My main goal of this =^.^= is so I can pledge even more to support you I hope I can offer more than just my paycheck &lt;3

Prance

Seconding the sort of questions of Sakuems, I do want to know which terms should the patron pledge (tier 2, right?) to be elligible as an contestant. Because I was pledging since term 1, but I don't know if I can do it between 1-15 Apr (but I do plan to return the pledge). So, that's the question, which terms should a patron pledge to be elligible to participate?

Baikal

.... "you much be around for the duration of the contest to qualify" SO i HAVE to pledge for 4 terms right ? with the 5$ pledge minimum ? so that's 20$ to be eligible ?

Sakuems

Oops, just realized, contest is for 2 months, so i can join for next term and enter the contest, then i can cancel my pledge after the first term ? i can't pledge for 2 months ^^;

Sakuems

HELLO ! as i said like 10 days ago or so , i want to pledge for a term or 2 (we'll see) but i was wondering, if i pledge now, Can i enter to this contest ? or i'm gonna have to wait for next contest ? :)

Sakuems

Oh well, seeing the artworks in the activity feed, I probably won't stand a chance, but I might as well try at least, if I have the time. Though I'll wait for the DA group, I'm not so fond of Facebook either :S

AlphaPizza

Awesome! *o* But.. "This contest will be available to all my tier 2 + patrons" that means it's not available for people that are pledging 1$ then? Sucks... I can't afford 10$ every month while I'm barely making any money myself.... &gt;.&gt; I'm a freelancer artist too, but man.. I'm happy for your success, but ofc it's impossible not feel jealous *sigh* but I understand you need to have some limits to who can enter with such high prizes. Oh well. Good luck with the contest none the less!

Really awesome contest! I became a patreon (I hope i finally found out what "Tier 2" means, i never heard about this page before) even if I don't have much money (I'm just a student and a dolar in our country with inflated currency means a lot :/) because I'd love to join that contest and mainly support you! &lt;3 So I'd love to ask you, if it wasn't only for people who are supporting for longer time? Is it also for newbies on patreon? :)

Good question! I am curious as well

tsuaii

Ok. Just became a patron :) I don't know if I'll be able to compete (although I would LOOOVE to), but I am very interested in the rewards for these following seasons :) Is there still a perk out there involving "past tier rewards" of sorts? Awesome contest idea, I really hope I'll make the time to submit what I would consider to be a worthy piece!

Gheorghe Pandia

Good way to increase my little skills :D. Thank you for this contest, i ll be there :p

Quetzalkol

Abdullatef Al-Zamel

Yes its a original contest, theres more to do that way :)

Sakimi Chan

Hi Sakimichan, Thanks for making this happen, I'm so excited. Just wanna make sure, if we submit the drawing, the owner is still having the copyright to the image right? :) So I can put that drawing on my patreon too later?

I will be as fair as possible :)

Sakimi Chan

Its only availble for my patrons sadly ^^;;;

Sakimi Chan

waw!!!!

TielSS

So excited for this!!! I'm looking forward to entering, and to seeing all the great artwork to come!

Anadia

read the rules! It can be anything visual and creative.

Charlee Leung

Horray! Will you be gentle on beginners? xD

Charlee Leung

I just want to clarify that no fan art will be allowed, correct? All characters must be completely original and not be a derivative of any copyrighted/trademarked character the contestant does not solely own, right?

Aricson Tarasova

Do I have to be a patron to join?

I will have a DA group up later on :)

Sakimi Chan

I can verify at the end :) dont worry!

Sakimi Chan

Uhhh what if you want to join but you don't have facebook? I know I'm probably the small 5% of the population of young people who doesn't have facebook by choice, but I'd also like to join this contest Dx

Elli

how can you know who is a +2 tier and accept on facebook? Cuz I would love to enter :D

sure : )

Sakimi Chan

Is it only going to be the four basic elements (fire, water, air, earth) or can we do other types as well (electricity, shadow, light, etc.)?

Mister_Skins

the contest will be judged by a panel of judges : ) it wont be because of the number of likes etc xD

Sakimi Chan

Does it have to be a digital drawing or can we do a photo instead if we are not as artisic?

Moose

awesome. joining now :D

I just hope that you evaluate skills more than facebook votes since i hate to ask people to vote on stuff. Of course if your people of facebook do it, i have no problem with because you have tons of followers...but please not personal votes...i only have my family on facebook ( and small group of friends) XD

Facebook is not too bad, just need to not add many ppl XDits pretty good for following artist, since alot of them post on Facebook : )

Sakimi Chan

I dislike Facebook :/ have no account can't participate then sadly ;/

CosMos

you can always sin up in case you have the Time : ) the contest will last 2.5 month : )

Sakimi Chan

Omg, I so want to participate in this!! If only I weren't so busy, Sakimi-sempai. T.T
