livvy Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 The random contest challenge for this week is to draw your Neopet having fallen asleep in a strange place or at a strange time, and explain where/when/why they're asleep. So yesterday I made my first ever entry into this contest, as seen below. While the faeries were frozen and spells were being cast, book-loving Lili and her Mauket, Ameina, diligently hunted down and decoded spells in the Archives. Well, maybe she wasn't QUITE as diligent as she'd like you to believe. A little before 2 AM, I found her sleeping on her spellbook, and snapped this picture. (Don't tell her though. She'd never forgive me.) Her nap was ended only a little while later by a rather angry Yurble librarian. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it's good enough. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selusa Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Aw, that's so cute! Being a bookworm, I can totally relate to the feeling of waking up with a crick in one's neck and a book outline imprinted on one's face. I love the little question mark above the Mauket's head, all "What are you doing". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masaryk Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Very adorable, Livvy! I love your drawing. It's a lot better than many of the others I've seen. This will definitely get you the avatar, and probably a silver or gold trophy. Best of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octopus Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 You have to at least get third place (runner-up) to get the avatar. And that pic will probably give you at least third place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divya Bean Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 livvy, that is gorgeous! You are an amazing artist. Such a creative idea! I love the humor in the drawing. You will definitely do well! ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livvy Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Oh yes, I totally understand that feeling, Selusa. :P Ohh, thank you Meghan. ^_^ I hope you're right. Me too, Bean. I actually drew it just for fun at first - I didn't actually intend to enter it. But now that I have, I'm really excited for the results.

livvy Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 Thanks very much, desavo. =] But my art is really not worth being jealous over. If you keep entering the contests, you'll likely win eventually. Aww, thanks Spritz. I hope you're right. I guess I am pretty proud of it. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 It's beyond adorable. My question is, since Maukets are kitties, and your Aisha is sleeping, why isn't Ameina jumping up and down on Lili trying to wake her? :P You know that's a cat's favorite past-time. :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livvy Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 Ameina is a very determined little winged-kitty. Even with Lili asleep, she's hunting spells. *nodnod* I was actually originally going to have her pawing at Lili's antenna to wake her up, but then someone said she looked really studious, so I gave her a book. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I love it the way you drew it, with her helping with the spell books. It would have been cute both ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secre Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 That's really cute livvy! You definitely stand a chance. siemis - give it a shot, it's easily relatable too so and cute so it's well worth it. *thinks hard about whether I can draw!* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manta Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Awww that's just adorable!! :D I love the Mauket's face :) Maybe I should give this a shot...it's due tomorrow right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livvy Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 Yup! They're due at 8 AM NST tomorrow. Best of luck to you, if you do decide to try for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secre Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Yup! They're due at 8 AM NST tomorrow. Best of luck to you, if you do decide to try for it! I realised a couple of minutes ago that it was due tomorrow and more or less decided that it wasn't worth it! I doubt I could get to a scanner before then and I definitely can't be bothered to try and muster up my non existant artistic skills by then!

antiaircraft Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Glad to see it came together Livvy! :thumbsup: Best of luck in the contest, although you'll hardly need it. Siemis, were I judging I'd give you a top spot for your sense of humour alone. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siemis Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Siemis, were I judging I'd give you a top spot for your sense of humour alone. :P =D hehe thanks I was thinking about it a few days ^^" *cross fingers* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
