[CLOSED] Guest Artist Applications

Posted 2 years, 1 month ago (Edited 11 months, 6 days ago) by iinkt

Temporarily closed! Thank you for understanding :)

Currently considering designers for the month of August! An application sent in now will be considered for August.

Every month, Aqualis is looking for Guest Artists to create adoptables for the community to purchase or trade for! We will approve up to five GAs each month, and each term will last one month. We may invite you to continue for the next month!

If you would like to be a GA again, you are welcome to create another application! If you didn't get selected, you will also need to create a new 

Disclaimers:
- If you are not approved the month you apply, you will need to reapply next month if you're still interested.
- If you do not complete the expectations, we will likely not consider you for a Guest Artist term again in the future.

Application Requirements: 
- You must be a Member of this world.

Position Expectations: 
- Create a minimum of two adopts per term. These may be sold for art, trades, or currency (mixed offers permitted). See below.
- If an adopt is sold for DA points, 500pts will go to Shrimpshifters for Common adopts, and 700pts for Uncommon adopts. You may include this disclaimer in your sale to promote higher offers. All other profit goes to you. (If you make less than 500pts, you may keep the money.)

Position Permissions:
- Ability to create Common and Uncommon Shrimpshifter designs for adopts or raffles
- Ability to create Shrimpshifter designs under the "Regular" trait set and, during event months, active special trait sets (ex., during February, the Lovely set for that year).
- Ability to collab with other users, regardless on whether they are part of the species, for Shrimpshifter designs
- Ability to accept commissions for Shrimpshifters during your term.

Position Benefits:
- One Rare MYO with no expiry per term, provided the expectations are met. During trait event months, you will receive a Rare MYO with the event trait set. (Ex: during October, you will recieve a Rare Spooky MYO)
- Free access to a Shrimpshifter base pack by iinkt!
- If you are invited back for another term two times in a row (for a total of three consecutive terms), you may receive the position Long-Term Artist, and serve for a year-long term. Long-Term Artists have more benefits and looser requirements.

Application Form:
- Username and Nickname
- DeviantArt Username & Discord Tag (not required, but if you have them let us know!)
- Why would you like to be a GA?
- Are you a member of the World? (Y/N)
- Do you agree to the Expectations, listed above? (Y/N)
- Portfolio (Link) (please make sure character designs are present in your portfolio) (if you don't have a portfolio, please spoiler some image examples, do not provide individual links!)

If you ever occur any problems while serving a term as a Guest Artist, we will do our best to be understanding and help out. Please do not hesitate to talk to iinkt or any other administrator if you are concerned for any reason, be it personal or external.
