New: Results are in after a very long delay.



News



If you were not aware, this group is currently run by two admins and as such there has been a delay in the judging. Before I announce the results, this group would appreciate any members who would wish to become an mod (note the group with experience/skills (if any) and time).

Now the results that everyone has been waiting a very long time to see:

1st Spear-Neck by Varatera by :iconvaratera:

2nd Skyhammer by ZenithDeLunaris by :iconzenithdelunaris:

Equal 3rd Slidewolves- Species Universe contest by ookaookaooka by :iconookaookaooka:

Equal 3rd Critter Concept: Sky Angel by Ja-Kitsu-Ryou by :iconja-kitsu-ryou:

In case anyone is wondering, placing was calculated with a point system.


As you may have noticed, some entries do have conflicting biomes so I will be working with the winners over the month to sort out a compromise but all winning species have become canon. The next contest will take place in a month and a battle contest will be taking place in the third contest (one after next).


Contest #1 Entries


If your entry is not here, then it hasn't been entered into the contest yet. You may re-enter a species from a previous species universe contest as long as it did not become canon for a planet. Comment here with your deviation to enter after submitting it to the group. We may automatically enter you here but re-entering will require commenting.

Submit your entries to the Contest Folder. We will move your species to their planet folder when they become canon.

Information


The Species Universe is a project that brings together the creative minds of the Species-Directory group to forge a collaborative, detailed universe filled with species created by the members. Species are selected to become canon in one of the 13 planets through contests and, every so often, a special round will appear that will have members contesting canon species against each other in various ways. To add to the challenge, each planet will be themed to give depth to the species created. The contest model was created by pandemoniumfire

Species Reference Template (1500) by pandemoniumfire Species Reference Template (2000) by pandemoniumfire

:bulletblack: 3 species are guaranteed to become canon after this contest. Depending on how many entries there are another few will be selected to become canon as well (will be hard to vote without a poll)
:bulletblack: Canon species will be found in their planet folders.
:bulletblack: A species becoming canon means it will be an Open Species (free for anyone to make one)
:bulletblack: Only the species creator has permission to make adoptables from their species or otherwise make a profit from their species. Anyone else, including the group, will need permission to make a profit from the species.
:bulletblack: Once canon, the species CAN NOT be removed from that status.
:bulletblack: Entering this contest means you agree to these conditions.
