CONTEST: Who's under that mistletoe?

Deadline: December 31, 2011 (CLOSED)

Theme: Sipping eggnog and eating cookies by the fire is nice and all, but being traditionally obliged to kiss that special (or even hated) person under the mistletoe is something to send a holiday postcard about![/b]

Draw those persons, or even group of people, finding themselves under the mistletoe. It could be romantic, humorous, or just plain awful. These people could be based off your real life or completely made up. Just know that anything concerning a mistletoe is not boring!

Rules:
1. Only 1 submission per user
2. When December 31, 2011 12:00 AM passes, submissions are closed for the contest. I do not take late work, no matter how good you are. :)
3. No explicit sexual themes/violence. No one sane kills someone under the mistletoe, no matter how icky they are!

Scoring Guidelines:
Skill: 40 points
Example: http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/345/2/2/faberry___this_is_december___mistletoe_by_patronustrip-d4iu7ee.jpg
- You can use crafts, digital mediums, traditional mediums(etc.) to express this theme, but you need skill to make it look good! Whatever style you work with, whether anime or realism, make it synchronize with your idea, and your skill will inevitably show.

Creativity: 30 points
Example: http://fast1.onesite.com/capcom-unity.com/user/ideaman/9ce74ce411a37767d0e1d82e0ae8186a.jpg?v=193950
- Kissing under the mistletoe is an expected reaction, but what makes it really interesting is if they hate, feel awkward, or have an angry cheese crab in their way. Mistletoe situations are a perfect sources of original moments!

Christmas Theme: 20 points
Example: http://th04.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2010/350/f/9/mistletoe_by_harpyqueen-d350wim.jpg
- Including the mistletoe, there should be other Christmas elements such as a Christmas tree, presents, ornaments, cookies and milk (etc), something to show that they did not randomly put a mistletoe up in the middle of April!

Colors: 10 points
Example: http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/359/4/3/christmas_plant_spirit_by_alectorfencer-d35mrny.gif
- Christmas is never black and white. Green, blue, red, and yellow (etc) are only a few colors affiliated with Christmas lights, trees, and presents. The holidays is no time to be narrow-color-minded.

Prize:
1rst Place:
-Putting your winning picture on the site news/main-page (this will be an alternative to those who still do not completely qualify for featured pictures or are too new to be popular)
- Specialized 2011 Christmas Contest Winner badge that you can put on your profile/winning picture description

Girl: AHUGH! My nose. But it is alright. I still love you~

Man, I am going to suck at the Valentines Contest. xD

luckylace222HECK YEAH yaoi is allowed! Just not explicit porn, but I hardly see that on FAC because of the approval system. Or maybe I am just not looking in the right places. For the rules, I did not put in "No erotica" because , well, a mistletoe is a good moment to have funny moments of that. xD Just not too strong.

I cannot wait!

Also, just randomly, when was the last time I drew a heterosexual couple?!

CrazyForJapan123 on December 16, 2011, 5:06:08 AM

CrazyForJapan123 on
CrazyForJapan123It is Christmas break for me!! :D It has been for about a week now x3 Dun poison yourself with expired chocolate!!! Or at least leave some for me if you do TT TT

And I have no idea!! O_O I feel like it's been a while xD Good job though :3 As always!!

Btw, are you on Christmas break? :D How is college for you? Are you enjoying being old??!!! 8B [You can respond on my profile or something if you don't want to extend the conversation here -3-]

luckylace222I asked similar questions on my profile, but I was only on FAC because I procrastinating on college homework. Now, I can reply!

@~@ I know right? ;I I did worst than I thought I would on my first semester. I got a 3.49. My Honors Porgmra required a 3.25 to stay. That was close. CHemistry kicks my butt man. I am going to retake it (got a C+). I despise my laziness. I will put the same effort into Spring semester classes that I do with my art! *fist clench* Thus, college is challenging, so it is fun! How is your college?

Yes, I am indeed on Christmas Break! Around the same week as you. I did not go on FAc as much because I was playing Skyrim for forever. >D> Even now, i have a great urge to play it. You know what? Imma do that NOW. >:U BWHAHA you must go draw a contest picture while I play Skyrim! BWHAHAHAH (I am okay with replying to any comment anywhere btw!)

HAH! The older you get, the wiser and SEXIER! I am sure you are an overload of sexy from age now Crazy.

CrazyForJapan123 on December 16, 2011, 7:21:17 AM

CrazyForJapan123 on
CrazyForJapan123Bahahahaha, thanks Buu xD I would like to think I'm getting sexier ;D Pffftttt x3

...I have Skyrim too ;~; and every time I look over at the TV, a crazy sensation overcomes me and I drop everything I'm doing and start playing TT TT I'm a horrible person!!

luckylace222 on December 16, 2011, 7:50:46 AM

luckylace222 on
luckylace222If that makes you a horrible person, then I must be the equivalent of Ted Bundy for I openly embrace my Skyrim obsession! Wherever SKyrim is, I will take it to bed and let it have its way with me! I will give you two options girl! Draw your contest picture or play Skyrim for the rest of your life!

The reason I started the FAC Christmas Contest late was because of Skyrim, *cough* XD OH my, I am bad. HAHAH yeah, now I know how you feel.
