Description For rules/guidelines on how to audition, see: [link]
For an example on how to fill this out as a complete image: [link]
For an example on how to complete your reference sheet in multiple parts (ie, image separate from written information): [link]

Key things to note:
DO NOT PUT AN IMAGE OF YOUR CHARACTER AT THE TOP. The judges want to fall in love with your CHARACTER, not with your art. So keep images at the bottom.
YOU MAY POST YOUR CHARACTER IMAGE SEPARATE FROM YOUR CHARACTER INFORMATION. However, they must be two different deviations. Do NOT put your character information in the comments!
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO USE THIS EXACT FORMAT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO. This is just to give you an idea of what the content should be and how it should be ordered. If you DO want to use this format, you may download the .psd file to use the layers directly if you so wish.

We accept any all beings. Provided they come with a well developed story.

glad to hear <3 I hope mine will be up to par. it'll be a bit difficult to get her audition looking well since she's extremely different than most entries will be.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it. It will be quite the challenge for both sides I believe.

are their rules on the race of your characters? do they have to human or can i give my imagination free reign? (as long as their not overpowered of course.)

You have free reign, there are no limitations on race. Please see the F.A.Q. for more information, under PMOCT Mechanics.

Yes, you may. Just make sure it is clear in the note. You may also work with some of our volunteers for putting together a character sheet. See the journal for more details.

Ok, it must be fate that I find this while having Clash of the Titans playing on my TV. Fate and a sign that I should try my hand at it.

ProjectMinotaurOCT In reply to Murphyslaw159 [2010-01-12 19:05:08 +0000 UTC]

Definitly a sign. I think you should listen to fate and go for it.

Indeed. Now to meditate on a charecture.

Is it okay if I put everything in the description...?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ProjectMinotaurOCT In reply to DarkestElemental616 [2010-01-10 14:19:59 +0000 UTC]

As long as the information concerning your character is in a place that is easily accessible to the judges, it's perfectly fine. So yes, the description is okay.

Great, thanks.

ProjectMinotaurOCT In reply to DarkestElemental616 [2010-01-28 00:54:39 +0000 UTC]

Whoops. Sorry for back-tracking, but I re-read your question of: "Is it okay if I put everything in the description...?" and realized I had misunderstood it when I originally read it. You meant the comments of the character image, right? For some reason I didn't read it that way...

Make sure that you post the image and the text as TWO separate deviations. Do NOT post the image and then provide the character info in the comments.

Sorry for the confusion.
