Who Are You? So full disclosure about myself: My name is Mackenzie Cameron, I've designed a board game called Killer Croquet, that I plan to Kickstart in September. I've seen a lot of really cool croquet art since joining Deviant Art, and I want to help expand the body of work that already exists. Do I plan to use this contest to promote my Kickstarter? Yeah, I definitely plan to use this to help generate content that I can engage my audience with. Will I use people's art without their permission? No. I am a firm believer in credit where credit is due, and I will not use your art on any external site without your permission. I'd love to promote the art that gets created here, but only with a full disclosure of what I'm doing and with the permission of the artist.
A Kickstarter, you say?
You can check out the latest news at
killercroquetgame.com. I'm very excited about the campaign; it is a lot of hard work, but by September 1st it should be very ready. I have lots of plans for various promotions, and select artists may receive an invitation from me to participate in a few Croquet Related art ventures, again this would be totally voluntary.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the event you can e-mail me at theauthorm (at) gmail (dot) com.
Best of luck, and happy drawing!
