******************************************************************************************

Okay, everyone.^^
I promised you a contest if at least two people promised to enter. Well, my friend and have volunteered to enter. But I need more.
Oh, the contest will go on with these two, but I do hope more will enter. (Sunny, Jess, this means you.^^)
So now it’s time to get this one-horse show on the road.
Okay, I promise no horses are involved in this contest.
PROMISE!!
So, here’s the deal:
I’ve got only one part to it.Character design.Your pick of who you want to draw.
PART I:
I need characters designed like you need air, and unless you’re a Vampire(from Twilight, of course), you REALLY need air.
So, here are the original characters I need designed.
Ghost: She’s had the most re-designs of any of my characters, but I’m not happy with her current design.
She’s a short-legged border collie, black/white/gray with big lime-yellow green eyes and a signature golden collar. Take this information as you please.
Fender: He’s old, but he’s not Grandpa-dog, okay? He’s just a bit gray around the muzzle. Fen is sort of a dark, cool gray with a black and gray “atched” tail. Think Calico cats, but only on his tail and ears. Eye color? Be creative. Just no red, he’s my little angel.
Ruby: She’s an English Pointer, white with rose-gray patches. Give her speckles if you want, just not too many. Ruby isn’t a Dalmatian.
Yale/Ty/ Greenwell: English Pointers, but I don’t know what color to make them. Keep it natural, please. They're Ruby's brothers, if that’ll help. You can do either, or all three.
Glass:: Think Jack Russell, but smoke-colored. She has stitches all over her face and her front. Her back half is unscathed.
Dakota: Denali and Nanook have designs, but the middle wolf doesn’t. She’s black and gray like them other two, but she has white on her. Copper-colored eyes.
Dexter: A Border Collie, but with longer legs than his sister. He’s black and white, no gray. Should have some scars, seeing as he’s a fighter. He has brown eyes.
Basil: The oldest of two brother German Shepard mixes. He’s mottled black and brown, with no other colors in between. Any shade of brown can be used. He’s mute, and I think something to symbolize that would help with the design. He has cold blue eyes.
Cade: Basil’s brother. He’s leaner, longer, and is white with a few brown patches. He has some longer “Hair” that hangs in front of his left or right eye, and it’s black with streaks of different colors. He’s a painter, and always has a paint brush somewhere on his person. He also has paint splatters up to his elbows on his front legs.His eyes are green.

********************************************************************************************
I'm putting this here so I don't lose it.

Cat's Name: Diamondkit
Rank: Kit
Mother and Father: Moonstripe and Bloodstream
Brother and/or Sister: Emberkit and Snowkit
Descriptive Paragraph: Diamondkit is already a very large size for her age. Her ears, paws and tail see to long for her now medium length body. Her whiskers are very long and are darker closer to the face and lighten up as they get farther away from her slightly angular, but still rounded features. Her eyes are as of now a bit oval shaped, and are a gray blue, which she will one day grow out of. Her expression is of innocence, with her large, round eyes, and gentle smile. Her pelt is mostly black, like her father’s, but she has a white spot under her nose on the right side, a white diamond- shaped mark on her chest, and another on her stomach. The middle two toes on her front paws are also white, along with her back feet up to about the middle of her leg. She is very gentle and quiet, but not as much as Snowkit. Nor is she as rambunctious as Emberkit. She moves as gracefully as a kit can and speaks quietly. She can be a bit shy, and prefers lying in the shade than chasing after her sibling. She’s not very skilled at much yet, but enjoys the rare and occasional play fight with her siblings. She has long, needle-sharp claws, and has accidently scratched up her siblings in a tussle. She is nervous around birds, and startles when she sees one, whether it is dead or alive. Maybe it’s that pointed beak, or the sharp talons that sends her hiding behind her parent’s legs. history, skills, ect.
Picture Link: Okay, Poison. Neo is threatening to permanently freeze my account, so I am a bit paranoid to give you the link. I can tell you where I got the picture ant the title of it…and what I typed in to find it…but I’ not quite comfortable with just giving you the link.

Name: Nightburst
Rank: Medicine Cat
Mother/Father: Flarefeather(Mother, deceased) Stonefoot(father, deceased)
Brother or sister: Winterstep(sister)
Descriptive paragraph: The first born of two sisters, Nightburst is technically older than her sister, but only by a few minutes. She doesn’t look it, though, with her small, lithe frame. Her body is long and thin with short legs. Her ears are large on her head, which is angular and thin, but still soft-looking. Her eyes are round and silvery-green, appearing more silver in the moonlight, which she spends a lot of time out of. Nightburst is a mainly nocturnal cat, and can be slightly anti-social. She does most of her herb-hunting in the dark, when no one else is around. She gets nervous when surrounded by very large groups of cats. She is a Tortoiseshell, though her coloring is mostly black with a few random splashes of bright, fiery ginger. She can slip between cats while fighting, acting as a sort of trap, working with her sister. She’ll lead a cat on and Winterstep will disable the cat with her large paws. Nightburst and Starclan have a sort of rocky relationship. They don’t seem to want to talk to her as of late, which sets the already-nervous she-cat on edge. She startles very easily, and doesn’t really talk much.
Name: Winterstep
Rank: Warrior
Mother/Father: Flarefeather(Mother, deceased) Stonefoot(father, deceased)
Descriptive paragraph: Winterstep was the baby out of her litter. Though she is the bigger cat out of her and her sister, she’s the largest. Her body is short in length, with long legs. At the end of those wonderful limbs are very large paws, all four of them as white as snow. She is a very quiet cat, rarely ever speaking. She follows her sister, Nightburst, like a shadow. Her instinct is to protect her sister and her daughter, Smokepaw, who has only recently left the nursery. She is slowly easing back into her role as a warrior in the clan, and spends a lot of time hunting, to keep her mind and paws busy. She is excellent at climbing trees, but prefers to keep all four paws firmly on the ground. Her eyes are similar to her sister’s silvery green, but are darker in coloration. She loves the daylight and large crowds, although she doesn’t talk or socialize much, since her mate left a few moons ago. She knew he wouldn’t stay long, with his being a loner, but she always hoped that he’d change his ways and join Briarclan. He disappeared soon after Smokepaw was born, and Wintertstep retreated into silence. She sees so much of Ghost in her daughter. They look so much alike, but Winterstep has never distanced herself from her daughter. At least, not on purpose.

Name: Lightningfang
Rank: Warrior
Mother/Father: Doveflight(other,deceased) Blackheart( Father, deceased)
Paragraph: Lightningfang isn’t the easiest cat to describe, in personality, at least. He’s very quiet, but friendly in nature. Probably one of the most loyal cats in Briarclan, he is one to trust. He loves to have fun sometimes, and does so by sneaking up on a cat, whether from behind or in front, and popping up about an inch in front of them. He looks for a good reaction, as in cats jumping up to surprise and later laughing with him. He is a mostly white cat with random patches of deep midnight black. His pelt is very short and close to his body, but it sticks up on his shoulders like he’s been shocked by a bolt of electricity. His eyes are a warm golden-yellow and sparkle with happiness. He doesn’t mind having friends in other clans, and thinks it’s a good idea to have those. Friendship, to him, passes all boundaries. Lightningfang is actually good friends with Thistleclan’s medicine cat, Mirrorheart. He has also grown very close to Sunpaw, and spends much of his time with her. His apprentice is Darkpaw, though their relationship is a bit rough. He tries to get along with her, but she just won’t have him. It doesn’t upset him all that much. He knows it’s just the way she is. It rolls off his back just like any other insult.

Name: Smokepaw
Rank: Apprentice
Mother/Father: Winterstep, Ghost(loner)
Paragraph: Smokepaw is the most recent addition the apprentice den in Briarclan. She is a mediu-sized cat for her age, with her mother’s long legs and her father’s small, dainty paws. She looks a lot like Ghost, her father, in the fact that she is built like an Oriental type cat, with a long body, large ears and smooth, short, but silky coat. Her pelt is a sandy gray, like smoke wither her angular face, long legs, tail and ears being a darker soot-gray with black stripes and thick bands of black on her long, whip-like tail. Smokepaw is normally a very calm cat, but can be very defensive when someone insults or threatens her friends and family. She is especially angered by Darkpaw, who has been calling her a traitor even before she was an apprentice, only because Smokepaw is friends with Thistleclan apprentice, Shadowpaw. She is close to the black tom, even though the two don’t spend much time with each other. Smokepaw has the habit of running herself ragged, until rest is absolutely necessary. She loves to climb, and can do so fast, even though she was never taught. She loves to hunt squirrels, and grabs them out of the trees they live in. Her mentor is Rosestar.
