Chakra CONTEST! Win Great prizes!

Greetings everyone! This is Arven here, I hope you're doing fine! So, remember when I made that poll some way back, asking which theme would best fit an upcoming Chakra contest? Well, that moment has finally come! Celebrating Chakra's achievement of over 110 pages, four years of activity, more than 1000 followers and the imminent printing of Chapter Two, I finally launch Chakra's third official Contest!



What if Led had C.Y.'s powers? What if Orca was part of the Zodiac Demons? What if the seven Heroes were none other than Red and his pack?
This is "Chakra: What if?", where you can disrupt and recreate everything you've always known about the comic! Unleash your sheer creativity and show everyone your imagination!

"Chakra: What if?" is the new contest about the Chakra comic, where you have the chance to win great prizes and have fun at the same time! This contest is going to have three main themes. You can join each theme as many times as you want!

THEME #1: What if – Powers

What if two Heroes' elements were to be swapped, or what if a character who previously had no powers suddenly woke up to having them?

Rules of THEME #1:
The picture must include at least TWO characters, either two (or more) Chakra Heroes with their elements mixed up, or a character who normally doesn't have powers suddenly acquiring one from one of the Heroes, with the respective Hero next to them reacting to the scene. For this second option, you can use any character who has so far appeared in the comic, but NOT fan-made or original characters.
The elements and powers allowed are ONLY the ones belonging to the Chakra Heroes: Vibrations/Keen senses (Led), Light/Foreshadowing (C.Y.), Air/Healing (Motyl), Electricity/High speed (Cheetah), Water/Diving ability (Orca), Ice/Sangfroid (Hielo), Fire/Iron stomach (Kuma). Obviously the combinations can be mixed up and attributed to a completely different Hero (e.g. Ice/High speed (Orca)). For more info about each Hero's abilities, please check: [link] .

THEME #2: What if – Teams

What if the team of Heroes you've always known wasn't that anymore? What if the Zodiac Demons were suddenly different? Who would be part of either team?

Rules of THEME #2:
You can build your ideal Chakra Heroes or Zodiac Demons teams with ANY character from the comic. No fan-made or original characters allowed.
The team of Chakra Heroes must be composed of seven members, and it should NOT contain any of the original Chakra Heroes (Led, C.Y., Orca, etc.)
I understand if you can't fit 12 wolves in your picture XD So, the team of Zodiac Demons can contain from a min of seven to a max of twelve members. Again, it should NOT contain any of the original Zodiac Demons (Ryu, Kozel, Mishka, etc.)

THEME #3: What if – Situations

What if it was Shirotora who searched for the Destiny Sword? And what if it was Motyl who led the Zodiac Demons instead of Jackal?

Rules of THEME #3:
You'll either have to redraw an original scene from the comic, but with characters changed, or a scene from the comic, with the original characters in it, but in which something unexpected suddenly happens. You can use ANY of the characters who have so far appeared in the comic for the first option (no fan-made characters or OC), and you can choose to let ANYTHING happen for the second option.


Please specify which theme you are illustrating in the Artist's Comments of your entry:
#1: Powers theme
#2: Teams theme
#3: Situations theme
You can enter all three themes as many times as you want, but you can only win ONE out of the six prizes available.
You can draw the picture in any medium, digital or traditional. It can be a scene, a simple group drawing, or even one or more comic pages!
Bases and ready-made linearts are not allowed.
Your entry should be drawn specifically for this contest. You may not enter pictures uploaded before May 8th, 2013.
I'm sorry, but literature is not allowed.
Referencing from my work is allowed, but tracing is NOT. Any traced or stolen artwork will not only be disqualified, but reported, too.
Please link me to your entry when you upload it, or I'll end up missing it! And I don't wanna miss a thing! ~♪


I'll be the only judge. I'll be selecting the most interesting and creative pictures.
I will evaluate creativity more than style, originality more than technique. Surprise me, and most importantly, have fun!


The deadline is August 8th, 2013.
