--The Subjects of Question--
There are three subjects in which you can choose to draw, which are:
Humans/Vampires
Animals/Familiars/Spirits
Landscapes/Buildings/Inanimate ob[injection]jects
Why are there so many subjects?
I need a lot of things to be drawn, especially the animals and the landscape categories. Those will be judged first over anything else.
-Humans-
Humans are closed for now, EXCEPT for
Annaise (Anna) Marie McCarthy Lubov
Irish/Greek
She has a Irish last name and red hair from her dad who is Irish, but her mom is Greek, which is where she gets her light grey eyes from, as well as her accent. The Russian last name comes from her wonderful step-father Dimitri Lubov.
She is female, straight and born on May 21, 1994 along with her twin sister, Charlotte, who goes by Charlie. She is now 16 years old, which makes it 2012.
At the beginning of the story, as seen above, she is attacked by a large mama grizzly in Yellowstone while on a mandatory trip with her dad and sister, along with his younger girlfriend, an agreement made in court. She is left with severe scars on her face, back and thigh from the bear, as well as a phobia of guns when they go off about 10 feet away. After the attack, she is knocked unconscious from blood loss and two days later, she falls into a coma, completely unresponsive. For over a month, she is unresponsive except for her brain activity and normal bodily functions. Right as their about to pull the plug, Charlie begs her to come back and as if she knows, starts pouring into their telepathic bond as much of her sisterly love as possible, knowing that this is what Anna had done for her when she had to undergo surgery to get rid of the tumor in her left breast, fairly close to her heart. This is when Annaise starts to cry a little and makes noise, alerting all those around that she was once again back.
Anna is able to communicate with certain animals in an inhuman way. She can't read their minds or feel what they are feeling. She can literally understand what their facial, body and voice ex[injection]pressions mean without knowing how. But it is like another language and she's been learning her whole life. She can understand cats best of all, and she can communicate back to them, without ears or tail, using deeper facial ex[injection]pressions and body poses, which most cats quickly learn to understand. Next she can communicate very well with wolves, but not a lot of domestic dogs since they are actually quite different. Anna has been 'speaking' with cats since she was about one years old while only 'speaking' to wolves since she was about ten. The only other animal she can communicate with is her ferret.
She has red hair and LIGHT grey eyes.
Her scars are bigger on her face guys. She was mauled by a Grizzly Bear not a mountain lion. I'm going to get this fixed but PLEASE make her scars bigger. They need to look like something happened to her that was horrible not something that was bad. If that makes any sense. This is a REALLY im[injection]portant element of the story and if you don't do this, you probably won't win. Harsh, but this is how I want it.
Colored version will be coming soon.
She is always optimistic, very much always sunny side up and smiling. Anna loves to be outdoors, doing sports and exploring the Ivvavik National Park near where she lives. She has a Greek accent at times, especially when she is angry, nervous or really happy. She spent three years in Greece the day she turned five before they moved to Canada. She LOVES Canada but ADORES everything Greek. She is also Wiccan, as is everyone in her family except her step-father and her half brother Jesse. Jillian is also Wiccan. Jesse is slightly Christian-Wiccan and the step-father, Dimitri, is Christian-Wiccan. Jesse is gay, Jillian is straight.
You can draw her right now with:
Her bow and arrow.
Her bone and deer-skin dagger.
Her and one of or all of her familiars: Nike, Athena and Zeus.
Her and her Ferret.
Options coming:
Her and Charlie together.
Her and Kieren together.
-Animals-
-Anna's Familiars-
Nike, or sometimes called Noire, in the drawings.
She is the youngest familiar that Anna owns, but the closest one to her. They share more then just a familiar bond and see each other as family in the most literal sense. Noire is very much like Anna, very athletic and sport-like. She loves to play games and go hunting for mice or other small critters.
Athena
Athena is a silver bengal she-cat who tends to raise an eyebrow at Nike/Noire's antics, but will occasionally join in as another playmate. As of yet, there is no official art for her, so here is a real picture of how I WANT her to look, not how she SHOULD look.
Zeus
Zeus is a little more laid back then the others but mostly because he's a huge, red pelted maine coon with a very unique design. He isn't afraid of anything and won't take crap from anyone. But he has a very...flirtatious side to him that can sometimes be equivalent to the adultery committed by the Olympian God he was named after.
-Anna's Spirit Animal(s)-
Note about Spirits; Spirits are like a type of special shape-shifter but they can only change shape with each owner. Anna's spirit was mixed up when she died for about fifteen to twenty minutes, causing her old spirit animal; a leopard, to become a ferret. But the spirit is the same, so nothing changed except for the fact that now she could have a physical spirit instead of a metaphysical spirit. When you have a physical spirit, the spirit lives for as long as the person does, which explains why her spirit only changed and did not die. She was not dead, just in a different realm. While there were no physical signs of her being alive, a part of her stayed in the body while the rest was in Mount Olympus, meeting her Gods and Goddesses for the first time. Anyway...MOVING ON.
Artemis
Artemis is the name of Anna's spirit animal, because when she died, Artemis became enraptured by her strength that surpassed those of which she had looked over before and despite the fact that gods/goddesses never become involved with human affairs in the modern era, she was given permission by Gaia (Gaia is basically above Zeus but they both agreed, Zeus reluctantly.) because Artemis was told by Hecate of the challenges that lay ahead. So Artemis became Anna's ferret, whom she buys a few days after getting out of the hospital, a welcome home gift put together by all her friends.

-Landscapes, Buildings and Items-
-Landscapes-
Mount Olympus or Mount Pelion?
Help me choose by drawing features of one of these mountains like surrounding villages or just beautiful scenery. Now, there is a difference between Mount Olympus and Mount Pelion. Guess what that is?
It starts with huge and ends with summit, on Mount Olympus...
Old Crow, Yukon Territory
In a world where you can be anything, be yourself.
