Contest: Win A set of Funko Pops by Designing Your Own!

[Dandelion]

Earlier today we reviewed Funko's line of Kingdom Hearts POPs and Keychains, and now we're going to give the set away to you! In this week's challenge one lucky winner will win the entire set of Kingodom Hearts Funko POPs AND the Keychains, while one runner-up will also win their own set of POPs.*

 

In our Design Your Own Kingdom Hearts POPs Challenge, users submit their own custom design for a Funko POP based on one of the characters in the Kingdom Hearts series. The winner with the most creative concept will win the entire set shown above, while the runner-up will win the set without the keychains. 

Remember, we are judging based on concepts and creativity, not artistic merit. So your designs can be intricate: 

Or rough: 

But as long as they're great ideas, they all have an equal chance.
Before you get started, here are some important rules:

Deadline for this Challenge is 11:59 PM, PST, on August 11th 2017. You have one week to enter.

• We will not ship the sets internationally. You don't have to be a resident of the US or its domestic neighbors to enter, technically, but if you enter you must have a domestic address that we can ship these to, otherwise you will be disqualified. We are not responsible for what happens to the POPs once they leave our care.
• If you are underage, you must have the consent of a parent or guardian to enter, as we will be in need of your shipping address should you win. 
• To enter you must post your design or concept in this thread before the deadline. You may post more than one design, or have multiple POPs in your entry, but you cannot resubmit the same piece again and again. Winners will be chosen based on concept opposed to amount of entries.
• You may submit a character who already exists as a Funko POP (IE: Maleficent, Beast, Minnie Mouse) as long as your entry reflects their unique appearance in the Kingdom Hearts Series. 
• You may submit any character that's appeared in any of the games. 
• You may make a composit photomanipulation based on previously existing POPs so long as the end result is a new character, you may also paint or sculpt a new POP.
• You may use the Funko POP youself website to generate your entry.
• Once we have decided, we will contact you privately before publically announcing winners. If we do not hear back from you within three days, we will pick new winners. 

Thank you, and happy POPping! Special thanks to Funko, once again, for supplying us with these collectables! 

*The sets provided to us by Funko did not include Carrier-Exclusive Variants.

Mh. :/ Wanted to enter, but this prevents me from doing so. Good luck to everyone else though!
Also, great contest, guys! So cool you're doing this.

I just realized something.... Wouldn't the examples Dandelion used be basically off the table? If someone decides to do them it'd essentially be copying instead of thinking of our own concepts...

I hope it's okay that I divided my 'set' into two images. Not enough room on the pages. I have dubbed them: "Terra and the Norts". Let it be known: Ansem and Master Xehanort were very difficult (their outfits belong in the same category as FFXII's wardrobe).

Note: Yes I know that POP figures have black eyes, I took a creative twist here because the colors ARE important! This was fun and I cannot wait to see the other entries pour in overt this week!

Part 1/2 ( I had to divide the set TwT)

Figured since Atlantica is a popularly disliked world no one would do the same pop I made. Personally I liked the world so here is Dolphin form Sora!

You gotta host the image somewhere like imgur, the picture you attached didn't show up

Sorry, I made an account just for this contest so I am new. I put the imgur, the link is below. I might put some more out there, so I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, good luck to all!

Made a set of seven. I was originally going to leave them uncolored, but this was a great time for practicing digital coloring.

Good luck to everyone entering and have fun!

Ok, I don't know if I quoted this correctly but I have a question:
So can we make a new character as long as it's based on the appearance of an already existing character in Kingdom Hearts or does it have to be an already existing character?
I've already started drawing based on either of these things, but I just gotta make sure >_<

That was a little difficult to read. I meant you could use an existing pop as the base to create a new pop based on an existing character. Canon characters only, but in the future I think an OC contest could be fun.

Okay, thanks for answering so fast!

Hey guys, Anthony here again. Sorry about putting more than one of the same reply. I'm new and getting used to the website still. Anyway, here is another entry. Good luck to all! I am really loving the work some of you are doing, it looks great!
