Hello everyone and welcome to my Summer OC Art Contest!
I've decided to bribe the artists here for some drawings of my originals. But there's a catch... I have no references. You'll have the artistic freedom to pretty much design the character based on their descriptions. So let's get down to business!
OCs
Rohan
Male. Werewolf. Mid-twenties.
Rohan has somewhat long tawny-colored hair and golden eyes. He also likes to sport some stubble across the lower half of his face and he has a few scars from his transformations. He has tanned skin and some upper body strength in his arms, chest, and abs. He tends to wear flannel and a pair of jeans; however, he's not overly picky about his clothes as long as he's comfortable. He's a country / southern type of guy; a true gentleman at heart. He's also easy-going and friendly despite his condition. But the Wolf is starting to creep in on him, sharpening his senses and causing him to exhibit more... animalistic behavior.
Zane Male. Mutant. Late teen or early twenties. Zane has the ability to create and control fire with his mind. He has short black hair, ice blue eyes, and pale skin. He's lean and lithe with more angular features. He almost always wears a nearly skintight black suit underneath his normal clothes, which can tolerate temperatures up to 210 degrees. He can be a bit hotheaded and quick to anger at times; however, overall, Zane is a loyal friend. He's deathly afraid of the water since it could probably kill him.
Graham Male. Human Space Pirate. Late twenties. Graham has dark brown hair with reddish highlights, gray eyes, and slightly tan skin. He's blind in one eye though, which should be made obvious in some way. He travels the backwater planets of the galaxy as a trader, but he's not against obtaining goods through less savory methods... He mainly uses a blaster pistol or a futuristic longsword as his weapon of choice. He's reserved and doesn't appreciate people prying.
Amaria Female. Elf. Two hundred or so. Amaria has blonde hair, hazel eyes, and porcelain skin. She's lean and lithe, but there's a sort of grace and elegance about her as well. She comes from a noble family line; however, she chose to leave that life behind in favor of adventuring instead. She specializes in the bow, preferring to attack from afar when possible. She's soft-spoken and gentle.

Hello! Are we allowed to submit only 1 entry or as many as we'd like?
Oooh this looks like fun, I'd love to give that elf a try! v
Oh, I suppose I should mention that... I don't see why you can't submit more than one entry, but you can only win one prize.
Yay! I'm glad. If you have any questions about her then let me know
i felt inspired to draw a portrait of amaria… CLICK
Awesome! I can't wait to see him! :P
Sweet! My first official entry! She looks lovely. You did great! Thank you. I have sent you the Participation Award. :P
Hello! I adore artistic freedom! Will be for sure giving Amaria a try c:
Sounds good. I can't wait.
Nice! Thanks so much. She looks awesome. I'll send you the Participation Award as soon as I can, which should be tonight.
Zane is more low class, but not necessarily poor. I know some of my partners have described him as emo / goth / punk. I'm not really sure whether he's actually involved with any of those or not because I usually just focus on him being a Mutant or Gifted individual. (Wow, it sounds kind of horrible that I know so little about one of my favorite OCs). The setting is contemporary modern or sometimes the distant future. Hope that helps!
Haha, yeah, I'm lazy and I haven't looked up how to cure yet.
[edit]
I sent you the Participation Award. I'm sorry it took me a little while.
Thanks for entering! He looks awesome! I've sent you the Participation Award.

signature art by me // [tot=Gatti] //
Yes. You have artistic freedom. You're more than welcomed to do whatever you want pretty much and design the character based on my description. I don't really have any ideas as to what Graham wears, which is why I left that up to whoever wants to draw him. So yeah... surprise me, baby. :P
Awesome! Thanks so much for entering and Graham looks so cool. I love that eye piece. I'll send you the participation award shortly.
