Great video, and congrats on the recent wins! Ever since they updated the Creative Contest prize pool, it's been my main form of making nps. Won a Coltzan stamp on my 25 AG win and recently an Unidentified Petpetpet :D Here's a couple other things I wanted to add: - From my experience the judge likes it if you draw a recently released colour, outfit or character (if they apply to the upcoming AG). Also if you draw a no-so-popular colour it might stand out compared to other entries. - If you're a better writer than artist, try the Poetry Contest! It's the same prize pool and the schedule is posted on the Neopian Writers boards
Thank you for the kind words! and oh my GOSH you got the coltzan stamp?! amazing!! that's really motivating to hear!! and poetry contest... I knew it had the same prize pool but I didn't feel right talking about it because I have NO experience with it xD...
Thanks for the video and congrats on getting in! Definitely agree with making entries bold, I always try to use bold lines and colours and make sure the pet/subject takes up most of the frame. I got in for Hissi Day but got a tyrannian petpet pb lol 😭 coltzan stamp you will be mine some day
This video gave me the confidence to submit my first ever art gallery entry for the May Flowers theme and I got in!!! I ended up with a rainblug which is super exciting for me since it's one of my favorite p3s :D
thanks for the guide, grandpa! i decided i wanted to get more involved in the creative side of np(just for the sake of it, not really for the profit tbh) so i entered my aisha into the beauty contest, but i don't really have the time to do the board promotion aspect of it. this may be just the thing to give me little prompts though :)))
Beauty contest is SO FUN too but you’re right the campaigning can be such a pain!!! You can always put the art on your pet’s lookup to show it off and give them some personality. That’s what I do with my past BC entries!!!!
i just finished my first ever drawing for the art contest because of this video. i kindaa maybe went a little overboard with working on it for 6 hours but, it was so much fun drawing so, i don't really mind. i'm waiting to submit for the coming moehog day and, i'm wondering did you ever make new pieces for random days or, used previous works?
I haven't entered a "random day" that didn't have a theme yet, but when one comes up I WILL definitely be resubmitting some of my favorites that didn't get in!!!
Hi, so I just started playing for nostalgia sake, I played as a kid but my dumb baby brain didn’t understand the game. I just got into it a few days ago and I’m honestly obsessed. I was wondering if it’s possible if you could make a video on maximizing your account (during the first three months when you can’t get certain rare items) and how to get yourself started. Ik this is unrelated to the video but I’ve just been watching everything Neopets cause I have a hyperfixation on it now 😭 also this art was so cute!
you know what... that is a fantastic idea... I will try to write some stuff down and think about this!! You're right to notice that the first 3 months are the hardest... I will ponder!!!
What a great guide! I haven't tried to draw a Neopet since poking around MS Paint... but I'm feeling encouraged by your video.
I would love to see your mutant ixi pop up in the art gallery!!! heheeee!
Art gallery looks so fun!! congrats on your double win. also i could watch hours and hours of your art time lapses. jus sayin

Thanks for the vid, Grandpa! I managed to get into the gallery once ages ago but I lost the info on what page I was on. Time to enter again!
