You did say she's a rodent, right?

Would giving her a different outfit/hair style count as a redesign? The word “fleshshaper” makes me think we have to do a lot more than that

>>128334
Do you want the design to be easy to replicate in the first place or maximalism style and you'll simplify it yourself?

>>128399
She looks cheesed to meet you.

Rat, rodent, same thing really

You can change as much or as little as you want, but you might lose points in the uniqueness category. The goal should be "If I was designing a character based off this backstory, what would I make them look like?"
>>128447
Doesn't really matter how simple or complex the design is, the goal is to just make something interesting and unique

Also if two weeks isn't long enough, I can extend the deadline to a month if that's preferred

Did you say copying and pasting is against the rules?

I'm shiptoasting here, but I hope someone will look at this and say "By Jaysus, I can draw better than this turnip" and post something worthy of the project.

>>128333 (OP) 
Bumping to declare interest and intent to work on this later this week or next week, sounds like fun

>>128333 (OP) 
I'm bumping as well. This looks like a fun opportunity for more community engagement

It's more so a rule against copying or tracing the works of others without permission
>I'm shiptoasting here, but I hope someone will look at this and say "By Jaysus, I can draw better than this turnip" and post something worthy of the project.
I would like to host more competitions in the future, but it all depends on how much interest there is in this one

>>128592
I'd be interested, but unfortunately I'm not a good drawer... yet... if ever...... I'm more of a bookshelf, you feel me? But I'll be watching.

I would encourage anyone with even a passing interest to participate. The intention was for the competition to be less daunting by having the focus be on creativity and uniqueness rather than just pure technical skill. Besides, the only way to get better is by trying right?

>>128596
Ok, Rev. I will grind to Lvl. 100 Artisté by the 12th just for you. My style doesn't really mesh very well with most the characters here, though-- I think you've seen it-- so I'll have to work on that.

>>128334
What is the time and place and what's the current state of things like in the world and what happened before and uhh where is it going? Just general characteristics without too much details

Takes place in a near future setting (around the 2060's) where an event similar to the resonance cascade from Half Life causes the worlds of humans and anthros to merge violently. There was a war that ravaged much of the Earth and now everyone lives in an uneasy peace several decades after the fact. The population has become even more concentrated in urban centers as they provide relative safety from the interdimensional anomalies that roam the countryside. Many world governments have collapsed, leading to a refugee crisis. Those that remain have increased surveillance and government oversight to prevent a similar catastrophe, though this has led to significant unrest in the population. There was already one civil war that split the United States and now another war is on the horizon

Hopefully that works well enough

>>128636
Did this put humans and anthros that evolved separately into the same world? Or does this setting have anthros who were magically changed from humans? Pic related.

Also, is she AzN? Her hair should be black. I bet she dyes it.

Also, to be a little more serious, you can't have cities and their populations in isolation. Los Angeles, to mention but one example, sucks in drinking water, electricity, fuel, and food from two thirds of the continent.  They're pulling in every unclaimed watt and breadcrumb between the Mississippi and the Pacific.  Put the city on a rock in the middle of the ocean and everybody dies, most within the first four or five days.  gg no re

Yes

Her hair was originally inspired by Mymy from Ongezellig (I haven't actually watched it though) so yes she would be Asian
>Also, to be a little more serious, you can't have cities and their populations in isolation
Of course. I didn't mean to imply everyone lived in cities, just that things are more centralized and the famines you expect would come as a result. There would still be rural and suburban populations of course

Submitting my entry. I had a lot of fun doing this. Excuse it being kind of sketching, I feel like I can get across my vision a bit better with sketches and imprecise lines rather than what I'd normally do and trace over the sketch layer with single lines

>Explanation
When reading through the character description I think what really stood out to me was the whole idea of rebelling against her family structure and wanting to feel unique. To me, my mind goes towards the sort of "emo" culture, or in particular scene culture from the 2000s. Along this regard I gave her a slightly modernized scene look, complete with that iconic hairstyle you should be familiar with (dyed with streaks of the color from the original design), as well as some "edgy" components like a choker, a chain in the pocket, and fingerless gloves. On top of that, somewhat baggy jeans and boots also fit the aesthetic for that time period. But she tucks her shirt in and dresses a little more formally/slim, which is more reminiscent of current day alt fashion I think. She also has some ear piercings that couple with all of this. 

Being a nerd, I couldn't not give her big round glasses. I just like big round glasses in general but it seems to fit the character well, especially because asian (if that's really where she hails) girls have these kind of glasses more often than other ethnicities. Buck teeth to accompany it gives off the impression of a nerd trying to dress like a rebel.

For accessories, I kind of just threw in a mishmash of stuff. I was thinking, in the current year what kind of stuff would a techie bring along with them? She has a satchel with a swiss army knife, headphones, a charger, a little pocket computer with a keyboard, and some goggles (which she rarely uses but keeps because it makes her feel more nerdy). She also wears a casio watch to finish it off, because as any techie will tell you a smart watch is just too unreliable because it runs out of battery, while a casio can be waterproof and last forever. While it's a little tacky, I also gave her a necklace with a gear on it. A lot of scene fashion incorporates necklaces but I think things like peace symbols, stars, or crosses don't really fit this character in particular, so a gear seemed like a reasonable choice. 

For alternate clothing the only other spin on scene fashion would be swapping the t-shirt out for a tank top, which I added in just as a bonus. I'm not much of a fashion person myself so I don't know much on how to put spins on this, but a lot of this clothing being iconic to that time period I'm trying to replicate kind of reduces options. Probably any variation would just be shirts with different designs or just a bunch of pointless stuff like random belts and buckles as scene fashion sometimes incorporated.

As far as her anatomy goes, I do like more noticeable anthro features, so a bigger snout and big ol' round rat ears seemed a no brainer, along with keeping the prominent tail. She has a slight fur pattern, being a bit lighter on the belly, though you can only see the difference in pattern on her face and chest here. 

I included a little simplification on the right with some of the less important things removed like the satchel and chain, since not every drawing would need to include every little accessory I feel.

very much up my alley, will take a crack at it I think

>interdimensional anomalies
we talking Stalker anomalies, or something like creatures/monsters or even foreign biomes etc?
