Contest Information Recap:
New photos now posted, added some more pics that I found from Palawan and also a winter weather picture, in case people don't want to draw a warm setting for their V-day pic. (Keep in mind that in the real Philippines, there is no snow, even on the top of the highest mountain)
(Information below will be duplicated in the background section)

That should be enough variety of picture backgrounds for this contest.
Nine judges have been added! If more people then 10 want to judge, I will allow it for a better overall score of each entry- so feel free to volunteer even if I do have 10 judges!
Hot on the heels of my last contest, I'm announcing another one just in time for Valentine's Day. The theme is love, of course, and your job, should you choose to accept it, is to draw an anime couple having fun on Valentine's Day.
For those of you have that seen my contests before, you know I'm not going to make it that easy... there's one thing that's also required for the picture- the background must be based off of one of the locales that I link to below. Where in the world are these couples going to be cavorting? The Philippines, of course, home of some the most interesting scenery I've seen and some of the best hospitality I've ever experienced. My girlfriend is also from the Philippines so it's only fitting I choose this country.
Contest Summary/Rules:
This is a Valentine's Day themed contest, and as such, is for a single couple in your choice of backgrounds. I will once again be having three categories- choose whatever you're confortable with drawing. If you don't want to show a passionate make out session then don't enter #3, it's that simple.
You may draw a hotel room with a view containing one of the backgrounds I provide. (Could be used for the innocent up to the quite passionate, depending on what category you're entering) A dinner setting outside, among the stars and the background setting is another idea that could be used. The couple could also be out on a boat with the land in the distance being one of the pictures that I provide.
Any other suggestions for romantic encounters, please let me know and I will mention it above. You can add things like drinks, flowers, chocolate, etc- anything Valentine's Day related can be added to set the mood.
Cat. 1- PG rated
Cat. 2- PG-13 rated- some skin, but no nudity or anything too risque for a 13 y/o to view. Please mark your art as "Mature" if you think any aspect of it would tempt dA to make a move against it.
Cat. 3- R rated- no sex but nudity is permitted here. Please mark your art as "Mature"
All pictures must be based on one of the background images supplied and that place must be mentioned by name in the artist comments. The anime series that the characters are from also must be mentioned.
Example: Ash and Misty from Pokemon at the beach in Puerto Princesa, Philippines.
Backgrounds:
1. The beaches at Boracay in the Visayas region of the Philippines. Most famous for the White Beach. Any of the background pics listed below can be used for a Boracay pic.

Judging:
I will once again be needing nine judges for my contest, please comment here or note me if you'd like to be a judge. Don't forget that judges cannot enter the contest!
Pictures will be graded on the follow:
Theme: How true they are to the Valentine's Day theme.
Lineart: How well the drawing is done, are the lines clean?
Color: How well the colors work together in the picture and how they work with the drawn situation
In Character: Whatever couple you draw, make sure that what they're doing is in character for the series. If they're doing something OOC for the cannon but it's in character for a fanfiction story, please put a link to the story in the artist's comments.
Don't forget that OC's and crossover's are accepted, please mention where they are from in the artist comments when submitting your picture!
Judges Opinion/Personal Preference: Thoughts on the piece and additional 0-10 points on how much the piece "grabs their attention"

Prizes:
1 winner with the highest score in each category will win a 3 month sub. to dA! Multiple entries are permitted, but if someone wins two categories, the 2nd place winner with the highest score will win.
Any questions or comments? Just ask. I'd be more then happy to recommend some couples I'd like to see drawn, if you're needing some ideas. Otherwise, pretty much any anime is open for use- crossovers are permitted.
