Sparkyandsnarky - Sparky And Snarky

IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIIIIIME OF THE YEAAAAAR!!!!!

Since 2012 I’ve given away 37 free commissions in giveaways like these, and I figured it was high time I brought that number up to an even 40 to help wash the disgusting taste of 2016 out of my mouth and to say THANK YOU to all my spectacular followers for being so supportive.

THE PRIZES: One full-colour detailed portrait, one sketchy colour portrait, and one b&w portrait are up for grabs. See my art tag or Artstation for examples. I’ll paint any humanoid character you want as long as you can give me decent refs, but Bioware & Bethesda characters/OCs are my faves. More info.

THE RULES: Each note counts as one entry. After the giveaway closes I’ll use a random number generator to pick 3 winners from the notes. Previous giveaway winners can enter again, and you can use your prize as a gift for someone else.

Any questions? Message me!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

XOXO

♥ fereldanwench’s follower appreciation ♥

In the spirit of the holiday season and passing a very unexpected follower milestone, I want to do a little something to show my appreciation! 😘😘 

the prizes

3 people will be chosen at random to get a mood/inspo board for an OC or ship of their choosing!

The 1st prize will be an inspo board set with a total of 16 photos arranged in 4 images. examples: [one] [two] 

The 2nd prize will be an inspo board set with a total of 12 photos arranged in 3 images. examples: [one] [two] 

The 3rd prize will be a single inspo board with a total of 6 images. examples: [one] [two] 

The inspo boards can be for any fandom, but I’m most comfortable with Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Fallout [example], Saints Row [example], and Skyrim. 

eligibility & how to enter

As is the nature of these things, this is only open to followers! New folks are welcome to follow and enter, but you know how this goes: following and then leaving when the giveaway is over is a dick move. Don’t be that person. 

Every follower gets a maximum of 2 entries: 1 reblog and 1 like. 

The entry period will run from Tuesday, Dec 13 2016, until 11:59 PM EST on Wednesday, Dec 21 2016. 

if you win

In order for you to get the most of your prize, there will be some work required on your end–Make sure you’re ready and willing to provide me with some pertinent info!

I need face claims for your OC (and their LI, if applicable). No letting me choose–You don’t want to leave me with that kind of responsibility. You can opt to not have a full face, if you’d prefer, but I’ll still need some deets about what they look like. 

I need to know about your baby! Hobbies, weapon preference, favorite color, food, flower, their religion, typical clothing–Any visual marker or symbol that makes you think of your OC or ship will be super helpful.

Let me know if you have any preferred color scheme or specific images you’d like me to include. Images should be clear, unpixelated, at least 500 px wide, and you must have a proper source for them. 

I’ll announce the winners Thursday, Dec 22 2016, in a public post. I will also contact them via ask box or Tumblr IM. If I don’t hear from a winner within 48 hours, I’ll redraw a new username and pass the prize along to them. 

First, I want to thank everyone of you who stayed with me during my whining and who followed me despite my lack of content sometimes. Your support means a lot to me and a giveaway is long overdue. 

I somehow accumulated more than 1.100 followers and want to thank you all with a small giveaway. 

1st place wins a fullbody character picture with simple bg 

2nd place wins a fullbody character picture without a bg 

3rd place wins a portrait of one character without a bg

This giveaway is for followers only (and not giveaway blogs!). New followers are welcome to participate though but it would be nice if you stick around afterwards… 

Likes and reblogs both count as separate entries - you can reblog multiple times, but keep it moderate and don’t annoy anyone with it.

I’ll draw any fandom or original character.

The Giveaway ends on January 22nd! I will inform you all if there are any changes in schedule. 

And please leave your askbox open so I can contact the winners! If the winner doesn’t answer after 24 hours, another person will be chosen - no expectations.

Thank you again for sticking with me, good luck.

~FOLLOVEMBER GIVEAWAY~

You stuck with me all through Inktober, and I brought in so many new faces! I have over 600 now, and 100+ more than I had only a month ago. In celebration, I’m going to do a giveaway!

Unfortunately, I cannot afford to do an airbrush one (maybe for 1k in the future) but I can do a commission/print one.

1st Place: 1 Pen/Marker bust commission of a single character of your choice. Doesn’t even have to be RvB or Halo so it could be your Destiny guardian, OC even, or fave character from anything else. If it is of a character I already drew, I will re-draw them in a different manner. No NSFW, sorry, but it can be gory. You will be sent a physical print of this as well as 2 existing art prints of your choice. 

2nd Place: 2 existing art prints of your choice.

For the existing prints, it can be almost ANY of my preexisting art, be it my undertale drawings, my digital paintings, my pin-ups, my animal prints, my inktobers…any of them. 

For now, I’m only counting reblogs, but reblog as many times as you want, so long as it’s not a giveaway/throwaway blog. 

I will ship internationally. 

Cut-off will be at 11:59pm EST on November 20th, 2016

Good luck! <3
