[FORUM ACTIVITY] Carol's Colorful Creations
Carol’s Colorful Creations

 

You stomp over to the bank with your heavy load of nuggets, muttering to yourself.  Rikur is no longer exchanging nuggets for gems.  Apparently he thinks that the nail painting business will be more fruitful.  Given the odd color of everyone’s nails, you’re doubtful.  Perhaps Carol, the banker, will exchange them.  At the very least you can store your nuggets there until Rikur comes to his senses.

The bank’s door rattles the friendly-sounding chimes as you enter.

“Oh great. You too?”  You groan, looking at the sight before you: the tidy, monochromatic bank with its obsidian floors, imposing granite pillars, and marble desks are ruined with blotches of color.  It looks more like Potions Master with various vials, beakers, and test tubes littering the desks where stacks of paper once lived.

Carol looks up from their desk, giving you a tired smile.  “Rikur came to me the other day to enlist my help in creating some new nail polish colors for his shop.  I told him I didn’t have time; running the bank is a full-time business.  He is a persuasive fellow though and, in the end, I caved.”

“I… see.” And here you had been hoping that Carol took up Rikur’s exchange duties.  “I just came here to deposit some nuggets.  Are you still partially functioning as a bank?”

Carol stands up and stretches, wiping their paws on their fur, streaking it with color.  They take your nuggets.

“Yes; I’ll go and put these in your account and catch up on a few other things.  Would you try your hand at creating a new nail polish color?  Rikur is very demanding—I’m already missing the days of being my own boss!”


Instructions:

You look at all the test tubes filled with colors and materials.  The possibilities are endless!

  1. Color the nail polish bottle and name the color!
    • Use the template or the outline provided below.
    • Utilize any media or art program to color the bottle.
    • Names should be kept to 20 characters or fewer.  Character count does not include “nail polish” (e.g. Starry Night Nail Polish would be 12 characters).
  2. Post your design(s) here!  If you make multiple designs, please use the same post and indicate which entry you’d like us to use if you are selected.
Entry Guidelines
  • Keep in mind that Mycenian nails are quite small.  You are free to make any sorts of designs in the polish as you want, but details will likely be lost on most nails if your entry gets chosen.
  • If you want to do this for the participation prize and would not like us to potentially select your entry for a shop item, please indicate so in your post (e.g. “This entry is for the participation prize only”).
Deadline

This activity is open until 23:59 Server Time April 7th.

Participation & Prize:
  • Coloring one bottle will earn you one ticket.  You may earn up to three tickets (keep your entries to one post).  You are free to design more than three bottles, but doing so will not earn you more raffle tickets.
  • We will be randomly selecting 5 tickets belonging to 5 unique players to make into actual site nail polish items which will go for sale in our shops.  You will get a copy of the item if yours is selected.
  • Coloring one bottle will earn you the participation prize, Drifty Nail Polish, for this activity.  You may design more than one for fun or for the raffle, but you will not gain extra participation prizes for doing so.
