Hello people!

Pretty late, but we decided to still hold a contest for you.

This contest will end at 11:59 PM UTC +1 on November 7th.
(System board time)

For the contest, you are free to choose from the two following tasks:
1) Pumpkin Carving
2) Do handicraft a Lantern

General Rules

1. The entry has to be Halloween/Fall and Pokémon/ VirtuAdopt related.
2. All art you use has to be especially created by yourself.
You are allowed to use official Pokémon or VirtuAdopt artworks.
3. Any photo you take has to include your VA nickname on the actual photo.
4. If you get banned during the contest, your entry won't be judged.
5. You may only have one entry.
6. Please upload your photos to an image server such as
Imageshack, Tinypic or Photobucket and post the link or image in the entry thread.

That means you can either join the Carving task or the Lantern task.



Prizes

There won't be any consolation prize nor a special prize.
Be aware that it won't do you any good if your entry looks rushed or poorly made.

For this contest, we prepared little Treat Glaceon:

I also think, this won't be easy. But this Promo is so cute, I have to try at least a lantern (since we don't have pumpkins yet).

Awesome art. *_*

Sounds really good, beautiful promo. °^° ♥
I do have one question, regarding the lantern-task: Do we have to build the lantern ourselves as well, or are we allowed to buy a lantern and decorate it as much as we want to?
Would a lantern like this one here for example be okay?

Since people here are asking whether you can decorate a lantern or even make one out of ceramic... are lanterns out of colored paperboard okay as well? °_° *a bit shocked xD*

MarsBar2, no pumpkins? They ususally sell them around Halloween although I cannot say how it is in other countries..

BebiiYunii, I am not sure whether I understand you correctly;
you yourself don't have to be on the photo.
It's up to you how you decorate or carve the Pumpkin, as long as it's Pokémon related.

Shay, sure, as long as it can be seen as a lantern, everything should be useable.

Requiem, I didn't take such lanterns into consideration. I'd prefer it if you'd build one yourself,
since it would be harder to judge in the end when other people would ask if they were allowed to use specific templates and such.

Tentakelmonster, yes, of course.

ToxicTosh, you are expected to build a lantern.
A simple example would be something like that.
