    2. Are 3D elements allowed to be used in the face-up?
      IE- small jewels, paper, flowers, wire, temporary face piercings?
       
    3. ^^ As long as it is a regular item which customizers would commonly use on an ordinary occasion, such as jewels or fancy eyelashes or peircings etc... Those are fine :D However, temporary items that will degrade are not allowed [flowers]. If you had a specific item in mind, head on over to Ask the Moderators to see if it will qualify.
       
    4. ^u^ A countdown clock has been added to the first post~
       
    5. Heh heh time is not my friend, I think I got more confused looking at the countdown clock >.<
      I'm going to stick with my original strategy of getting my entry in early so I don't have to worry about it! I'm almost finished anyway, details are all that's left and then I have to worry about taking and sending my photos...which is the worst part.
       
    6. This contest finishes tonight :D! I know that artists may be known for pushing deadlines, but please make sure you have time to take photos and fill in your form properly, everyone >U<
