Camp Veta 2016



Do you love adventures? Show us by entering Camp Veta 2016’s adventure contest!

You can enter one of the four categories which are:

    [li]Drawing: Show us an adventure with a subeta pet or NPC using any medium like pencil, paint, markers, etc. Remember that there are no computers at Camp Veta, so we will not be accepting digital art submissions! Don’t forget to describe your picture in the text box on the submission page.
    [li]Sculpture: Show us an adventure with a subeta pet or NPC using mediums like food, wood, clay, etc! Don’t forget to describe your picture in the text box on the submission page.
    [li]Human Avatar: Show us your most adventurous human avatar. You can submit an HA in one of two subcategories, a human avatar that uses custom wearables or one that doesn’t. You can only submit one entry, so keep that in mind!
    [li]Writing: You have a max of 5,000 characters to write a short story about a subeta themed adventure!


You will have until August 18th at 11:59pm to submit your entry. You and your fellow campers will be voting for your favorites on the 19th and 20th. I’ll be awarding prizes on the 21st.

Prizes: All participants will receive a participation ribbon that will appear on your profile with your other trophies and medals. Participants will also receive the forum title wants s’more. The three people with the most votes in each category will receive a trophy, the forum title pitched a tent, and 500 cash shop credits.

I have the same questions as others (pets that are actually humans, and how to italicize), will you be making some official statement somewhere with the answers?

I'm glad we're doing something this summer, but I'm very disappointed it's not an actual plot :/ I guess I'll get drawing something.

With the stories, can you write about human pets? Like ones not in their feral form? Most of mine tend to be humans that I just make look more animal for the overlay and all.

Also, would something like making a stamp work? It is carving of sorts 8D

I think I am going to enter the writing category, or the HA one perhaps.

I feel like everyone will go art or HA, so do I differ for chances' sake or do what I'm better at? The tough questions.

Question of interest, but does using sCode work in the writing category, like using the italics tags and such?

Oh lord, the one entry pains me. Do I want to try and put together a decent HA? Or should I write...?

This sounds like such a fun idea :)!! Unfortunately I'm shy about my writing and art skills, so I shall just watch from the sidelines and see what others can come up with. Good luck to you all!!!!

The 'character used' button turning orange definitely startled me. 😂

I hope my story went through, the url said success but nothing really indicated that my entry was received.

any kind of adventure you want WHO DOESN’T WANT TO GO TO SPACE AND EXPLORE. We kept it broad so that you could choose between exploring the unknown, being chased down in a jungle like Indiana Jones, etc etc. will let a programmer know!

oh man i'm so torn between a drawing entry and an avatar entry! on the one hand making HAs is my thing... but on the other hand, i'm not sure if i can come up with something sufficiently 'adventurous' (not even entirely sure what that means! are we talking indiana jones adventurous? space explorer adventurous? ancient magic warrior adventurous?) and i would love to try my hand at a drawing, i haven't done a proper art piece in ages and... ugh, i just don't know what to do!

Well I'm not that great at drawing, don't have the energy to come up with a story... so please let the wardrobe work so I can at least try and enter. :)

This should be fun, look forward to seeing everyone's entries.

For the art contest: can custom colors be used (ex: a telenine colored like a real dog) or only official pet colors?

Whoops! I read ’s question as art, sorry! The writing just has to be subeta themed/related (it’d be nice to include an NPC or something). SORRY ABOUT THAT.

I'd love to try the writing one. But keeping it UNDER 5,000 characters is going to be tough :). Good luck to everyone entering, whichever category you choose :)

er, so the story has to include a subeta-species pet or an NPC? It can't just be in a subeta setting?

Subeta, why must you say "all media", give us the two seconds it takes to come up with and get excited for a drawing idea, and then immediately crush it with "no computers"? Couldn't you have just said "all traditional media"?

Well, unfortunately, english isn't my first language, I'd love to write something. Already did in contests back in Neopets (fansites) and always used to win :P Buuut, it was in portuguese lol I'll try to come up with a brilliant HA, otherwise I'll have to give a try at drawing (never sculpted before). I'm surely going for that trophy :P

It just needs to have at least one pet or NPC, so you can have a buddy adventure or include an army, whatever works!

Kudos to a contest that will spotlight the hand drawing! Honestly I thought at first "whoa not gonna stand a chance at digital art" but then I realized it's just for physical art. HYPED oversweats

For the story does it need to center around just one of your pets?
