Contest WINNERS!Hey guys! Sorry it took a bit long, but I waited until I got most judges' votes!
So before we praise the amazing winners' pictures, let's thank the judges *kuiwi, ~Acrid-Blood, =Speckelpelt, ~Nox101 and ~Fenrir49 for giving in their votes and opinions on all the 46 entries we had! It was a hard time picking only 4 winners, believe me :'O
And thank you to all the people who offered to donate prizes! Please contact the winners and draw your pictures for them as soon as possible

This picture got perfect 10 points from almost all judges. We loved it, because, see, Link really interacts with poor Ivypool, bringing all of his Hyrule badass-ness into the Warriors world. Also the expressions are just priceless, a perfect crossover. Congratulations, *Finchwing!

Warriors mentor/Apprentice Contest!!Yeah, so I wanted to do a contest. Just 'cause.
This will be a contest based off the Warriors series by Erin Hunter.
Sooo, what is this contest aboot?
For this contest I'd like you to draw, to the best of you ability, your favorite Mentor and Apprentice duo, like Lionblaze and Dovepaw say, or Firestar and Bramblepaw. because there's just not enough art of them! From whatever clan, whatever series, medicine cats and warriors, as long as they're mentor and apperentice.
I will be judging on artistic skill and creativeness. I'd love to see some of the less publicized mentors and apprentices.
RULES
1 Artwork must be entirely yours-- no line art, no stealing.
2 Must be canon characters from the books, no OCs
3 Must be an actual mentor and apprentice pair from the books, no creating your own.
4 Backgrounds are encouraged but not required.
5 Any art media, no writings for this contest though, sorry.
6 Must be new art for this contest, no old art.
7 you may enter more than one piece of art, but

Kicking off 2013 with a Contest! Rules and Info!EDIT: THE CONTEST DATE IS BEING EXTENDED TO FEBRUARY 18th TO ALLOW MORE TIME FOR ENTRIES. Please consider making an entry! You have nothing to lose. C;
-----------
Guys! Please read the rules. You need to submit your entry to the linked folder! If it's not in the folder, it won't be judged. Thanks!
I think it's about time that we have another contest, and what better to kick off 2013??
So, I'll get right to it.

Your theme is....
The saddest moment for a less-loved warrior.
Suggested a long while ago, this theme is pretty self-explanatory.
Cinderpelt and Silverstream aren't the only cats who've had tragedies in their lives. From Broken Shadow's loss of her son Fallen Leaves to the death of Brightsky and her three kits, it seems all warriors have their fair share of pain.
If you'd like to participate with literature**, you are free to do so! But if you choose lit, you're obviously going to have to do a little bit more creative work - perhaps you'll write

Emergency - UPDATEUpdate
Hi everyone! :iconhvalross: again.
Just letting you guys know that the move is tomorrow. I should have internet within the same day, too.
Tomorrow I will start doing my best to get even more done. I have gotten things finish "behind the scenes" and I have given quite a few people their drawings/customs over notes from my Photobucket. All of it has been from my old list, though, and I am pretty much completely done with it, and I can start on these commissions this weekend.

Now, it will be hard for me, because I have 60 hours between the next two weeks at my job. I will probably be pretty damn tired every day, but I will do my best to get at least two things finished a day. I am doing these commissions in the order that I received the payment through my Paypal.
There are 6 people who sent the payment via Goods and not Services. This has caused the money to be stuck in my paypal for a month and I cannot do anything with it. Until I am actually able to move this money, I

Resources/Tutorial Livestream Offline :DLivestream is over!
Ill post the tutorial results soon!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Edit 12/25/12: Merry Christmas! Just a reminder to get in any suggestions for tutorials and resources quickly! I will be starting the stream at 10 am EST tomorrow!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Happy Holidays everyone!
This year started out with me really wanting to do Christmas commissions, make gifts, and participate in secret santa groups, but life had other plans.
I have instead decided that I would like to take a day or two and fulfill as many requests for resources and tutorials as I possibly can, and then post them up here for everyone to use.
I'll be starting out with some of the tutorial requests I have had on a to do list forever:
1. How to draw trees and bushes.
2. Drawing hair and Hair physics.
3. How to make your own textures.
I am taking requests! Here are the details:
1. Post a request below, it can be anything that would help the community - T

Looking for Warriors Fan Comic CharactersAfter a few days of thought, I have decided to try the Warriors fan comic. It sounds like it could be fun, and I have a few days now to work on starting it. I expect to finish a page or so every two weeks, but it will be more of a side project, as I'd like to keep Project 13 my focus. My days off are not always on the same days, so it will probably be a sporadic project until the spring when I am back down to one job to contend with.
If you are interested in applying to have your character in the comic, please read the following.
Basically this comic will be made up of a bunch of people's characters, mine included, and I will give them a plot. You get to give me your input, but I make the major decisions. It will be kind of like one of those roll play games where one person is in charge of the way things happen to the characters, but the characters are in control of how they react.
What I need from you, is a character reference. It only needs to have one view of the chara

Updates on Adopts, Moonclan Subs, Rise of MeniscusHello Everyone.
There have been a few things that needed to be addressed, so I decided to do a "super journal" to hopefully wrap everything up.
First things first, we have been getting a lot of people adopting! We appreciate you taking on that job of using pre made cats and we hope all of you will treat them wisely. I will work on their reference sheets, so if you are waiting for them, read my latest journal to know when I will be posting yours.
We still have some cats that need to be adopted, here is a brief overview:
Moonclan
Mosspool
Sunclan
Swifttail, Dappleflower, Scarfire, Shrewpaw, Maplepaw, and Runningface
Duskclan
Rednose and Rockbelly
Dawnclan
Lightningfall, Sandclaw, and Blueblaze
Please look at the official clan lists to find a full description on these cats.
Secondly, a lot of people have been submitting their cats to Moonclan. Although I do love the support, some clans have as much as 5 cats. I am currently shutting

Gathering Info, EVERYONE IN THE GROUP MUST READ!!Hello Everyone,
A lot of people have been asking when the upcoming Gathering will be. I took in all of the considerations, and I believe I have a date.
Saturday, August 25th, 2012
6:00 p.m. Central Time
Gathering Place
I hope this will work for everyone. Please note that this is mandatory. If you do not join us, I will personally ask why you did not. Do not worry if you do not have a cat at the time, this is for people who own cats. There are exceptions to certain excuses, but all leaders must be here.
Please make sure you know your time zone according to this, and remember to mark the date
The time will be flexible, just let me know when is best for you that day
Let me know if you have any questions or if you can join us.

Contest Over! Judging begins shortly

by *NoreyDragon, Jan 10, 2013, 12:51:07 PM
Journals / Personal

Yo guys! Some of you asked for an extension so now the contest ends today (3 days later than planned). We received so many beautiful and clever entries, such amazing crossovers!

47 entries!!

I will send out notes to the judges soon and then the 4 winners will be chosen. So far, look at the pretty entries and give them some love!

_{Fellow Warriors, Queens, Apprentices, Kits and Elders. Today I am speaking to you, because something entirely new has happened in our lands. The borders to parallel worlds have opened and previously unknown creatures have emitted through portals into our forest. Some of them pretend to be from our kind, others seek nothing but war. They may look like cats but we already saw the demonic ones among them as well, with eagles' wings, wolves' teeth and even StarClan like powers in their paws.

Now, my precious clanmates, strive out into the woods and look for the strangers. Approach them carefully since we do not know which powers they can possess. Defend our territory if necessary and try to find out something about them. May StarClan light your path.

Your leader, Noreystar}

Our new contest and how it works

So the theme of this contest is crossover. Take one or several characters from a tv show/video game/book/movie or comic series and put them into the Warriors universe. (examples: Harry Potter, the Avengers, the Simpsons, Star Wars,...)

Guidelines/rules:

You should draw the parallel world characters as cats. You can keep clothing, weapons and features like wings or accessories though.

There should be at least one Warriors character and one foreign character in the picture. You can also add more.

The characters can be fighting or talking or chasing each other, there are no guidelines for that, also not for the environment.

A background is optional, not necessary but if nice and fitting, give you a bonus from the judges. An additional short story in the artists description is also optional.

No mature content please, you can add blood and gore but keep it classy.

OC's are not allowed, sorry. Also the universe the foreign characters come from should be a widely-known one, not from a comic book written by yourself.

When you are done with your picture, submit it to the Warriors Crossover Contest folder in our gallery and send the link to me (*NoreyDragon) in a comment or note so I get your entry. I will comment on it and as soon as you get my comment, you know that your entry was accepted.

If there are more questions, please ask!

The Deadline

The contest will most definitely end on March 1st but if needed, there will be a slight extension of 2-4 days.

Well I did a picture but finished after the deadline. I totally missed the update that said there was an extension, but that's probably my fault.
So I assume it's over and the judges are already deciding? I can hardly wait to see the results!
