Ahh ok here it is, guys! Sorry for the wait!
<tl;dr>
First of all I just want to say I am sooo thrilled I got so many entries. I called this a mini-contest to begin with because I didn't expect much but truthfully I was blown away! I couldn't be happier that you guys seem to enjoy my comic. I know I don't always reply to comments but I really do read every one of them, and every time I get a compliment or got an entry to the contest I just felt so happy! Thank you guys so, so much! ;__; <3
I also want to say that I LOVED every single entry, and it's taken me a long bit of thinking because alas I do have to only choose one per tier or character. You guys are so talented and I mean it when I say it was very hard choosing! I've been looking at the entries as the weeks have passed and I've just been sitting here like "ooHHH NO NOW I HAVE TO CONSIDER THIS ONE!!" Anyways I'm sure you don't care about my rambling, point is, THANK YOU!! You guys are the best!!
</tl;dr>
DESIGN CONTEST WINNERS
I chose the winners based on originality of character design, but also on how well they fit the picture I had envisioned of them while I was writing. I know I didn't give you guys much to work with in terms of background (as a lot of it is spoilers) but I can tell there was a lot of thought put into each design I received. In the end, I chose...
for Minkstar (Teelia)
and
for Shimmerstar! (ZooExorcist)
Congrats guys! I'll be notifying you and getting the information for your prizes soon!
I've also drawn each character as they will appear in the comic:
PROMO POSTER CONTEST WINNER
The winner of this tier was mostly chosen on compositional elements, and how well it maintained the integrity of the overall story. It was really hard, there was obviously a lot of thought put into every one of them! In the end, I had to choose...
by Wolfhowler9880 ! Congrats!
I will be notifying you shortly about your prizes!!
I already said this a million times but thank you guys so, so much, this was a lot of fun for me and I hope it was for you too! Maybe once TPG has progressed a little I can open up another contest~ And winners, make sure to keep an eye on your inboxes!
The contest deadline has now passed!
So I'm actually rescinding what I said earlier about choosing the winners once it ends; I have A LOT of work to complete tonight and I don't want to have to rush over any entries or distract myself further ;n; The winners will be up at some point tomorrow, I hope that's not too much of a wait! I'm sorry! (ALSO: if you don't see your entry in the journal PLEASE let me know, at some point about half of them had been deleted on accident and I tried to put them all back in but I might have missed one or two!)
edit: This contest will officially end at 11:59 CST! I'll be accepting entries up until that point, and the winners we be posted after the deadline has passed. I'm loving all the entries so far!
SO I decided I'd try this contest to see how it goes! That's right, this is a Perfect Green themed contest where you can not only win art from me, but a CORE membership as well! Keep reading if you're interested!
There are currently two tiers:
DESIGN CONTEST
There are two important future TPG characters whose designs I have not yet settled on! They are Shimmerstar and Minkstar.
Shimmerstar was the leader of RiverClan before Ivystar. She is a bit whimsical, and has a special relationship with StarClan. She is often seen staring into pools of water, waiting on signs from her ancestors.
Minkstar is a highly intelligent leader of WindClan. I can't say too much about them due to spoilers, but they are a well-intentioned leader who would do anything for the cats that have allied themselves with WindClan.
Each character will win one design. But what that design is, is up to you guys! You can make a design for one or both of them, but each person can only win one character design. If you win, your design for Shimmerstar or Minkstar gets to be featured in my comic, and obviously with credit!
THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND
- Please keep the designs semi-natural! Hair is okay in most cases, but no extremely unrealistic colors, markings, or features! Please no sparklecats!
- Shimmerstar is of RiverClan heritage, and Minkstar is of WindClan heritage! Priority will be given to designs that reflect the natural appearance of these Clan cats.
- ALSO: both of them probably have a few scars!! Nothing crazy though!
PRIZES FOR THIS TIER
- 1 Shaded Fullbody from me ( example ) AND 1 Mini from me ( example )
- Character cameo in The Perfect Green

PROMO POSTER CONTEST
This contest will be to create a "movie" or "promo" poster for my comic! Think when you go to the movies, and you see all those cool posters hanging up in the hallways! I know it's NOT a movie, but if it were, now's your chance to show us what you've got!
THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND
I know TPG has not progressed that far, so I'm giving you a lot of freedom with how you decide to execute the poster! All you really need to know is that the major characters are shown here. Don't worry too much about showing the characters that haven't been introduced! Try to interpret the comic in your own way, creating your own unique spin on what characters might play what roles!
PRIZES FOR THIS TIER
- 3 month CORE membership
- 1 Shaded Fullbody from me ( example ) OR 1 Mini from me ( example )
- Your "poster" shown on my profile page, to advertise my comic (with credit)!
ENTRIES
ADDITIONAL INFO

Zinnia's Character Questionnaire
I'm using a modified version of a meme made by CaliberArts (https://www.deviantart.com/caliberarts) for a little of Zinnia's character development. I wrote it from her perspective, like she was being interviewed (God help this imaginary interviewer). I changed the wording of the questions to better fit this, and... deleted a few because I'm (((lazy))).

the end of The Perfect Green...
yeah TPG's over. For good this time. I know i KNOW you all saw this coming. What can I say! I'm a flake!
I really truly did want to finish the comic, but realistically it just wasn't going to pan out. I was going to have to churn out 3 pages a week AT LEAST to finish it in the NEXT TWO YEARS. I'm graduating college in two years and you know what I don't wanna be doing post grad? Drawing a mediocre warrior cats comic.
It's not even that it's warrior cats it's just that it's got flaws I can't overlook and I'm not committed to it anymore. But yeah -- I HAVE, however, made the script available for public reading, if you want to find out what ha
Wishlist + Tagging Me In Wishlists
Just wanted to post my yearly PSA that it's totally fine to add me in wishlists!! I can't guarantee I'll get around to doing anything for anyone, but depending on how I feel this holiday, I'd love to draw some of your awesome characters! So feel free to tag me in wishlists, guilt-free.
I'm not going to tag anyone cause I don't know where everyone stands on wishlists, but I'd be thrilled to get art from anyone for the holidays. Here are my characters: https://toyhou.se/amigento/characters
UPDATE: if I could have any character drawn for me for the holidays it'd be my girl Zinnia... https://toyhou.se/3010770.zinnia#10419216
But I'd be happy t
