🎂My Gemsona Blog is turning 5 Years Old! #gemsonaversary🍰

On July 25th, GemsonaResources will be celebrating its 5th year anniversary by posting a gemsona community collaboration! Gemsona makers will be asked to post and submit artwork of their gemsonas to @gemsonaresources​! This will be GemsonaResources’ final time hosting a gemsona related event. Please consider joining in!

What is this theme? How do I participate?

The theme is simple: draw a full body image of a gemsona that you have created. Your character will be added to a large collaboration of other gemsonas that have been submitted for this event. Both traditional and digital mediums are welcome. Your gemsona can be sitting, standing, or floating. It is recommended that you choose a gemsona that you have made with the help of a gemsona help blog or a fellow SU fan/gemsona maker.

What should my submission file be/look like?

File Type: Transparent PNG file, transparent Photoshop file; This means that your artwork must only contain the character that you have drawn and no background. If you need help with this, feel free to ask me questions on how to accomplish this or ask me to make your file transparent for you.

File Size: -Portrait Format: 8 inches in height, 5 inches in width. -Landscape Format: 5 inches in height, 8 inches in width     Your gemsona should fit into or be smaller than these parameters. The goal is to keep the characters proportionate to one another even though your canon for them may involve the character being exceptionally tall or small.

Entry Limit: Limitless. However, please keep each character you draw in its own individual file.

What is the due date? Are late submissions allowed?

JULY 21st! As soon as the clock strikes 12am Pacific Standard Time on July 22nd, no more entries will be allowed. I need the time to format the final collaboration for July 25th. Late posters will still get reblogs onto my blog, but will not be included in the final collaboration. Please take that into consideration in case you see your work on my blog, but not in the final piece.

Where and how do I send in my work(s)?

Three ways: 1) Post your works onto Tumblr, use the hashtag #gemsonaversary within the first five tags on your post, and tag me @gemsonaresources​ in the description or the first five tags so I know where to find your works.

2) If you do not have a Tumblr blog or prefer to submit your works on another website (deviantArt, Twitter, etc), please send me a link to your work through the submission box and I will post it onto my Tumblr page.

3) Email me your entry at gemsonaresources@gmail.com and send a chat message to me at my personal Tumblr blog, @macbeth-macdeath​, confirming that you have send your entry to me.

**If you have any questions or wish to send in your work(s) early, feel free to send in an ask or chat message to @gemsonaresources​ or @macbeth-macdeath​ (my main blog)! Click the “Read More” for guidelines and restrictions on submissions.

Restrictions on Submitted Art: -All creations must be made specifically for the event. -Gemsona characters ONLY for this event. No canon SU characters or human OCs will be included in this final collaboration. -Works must be G or PG rated (think of what is shown on Steven Universe). -No cursing/swear words -No blood, gore, violence, death -No nudity -No NSFW/sexual content -No traced or recolored work of someone else’s art. We want your original content! This includes photoshopping another person’s work to fit the theme of the event.

I kinda missed drawing Variscite.

My first entry for Who’s that gemsona, by @gemsonaresources. I dunno if i should say her name here since it’s a guessing game thing so I won’t...

EDIT: I can legally say her name. This is Persian Lapis Lazuli!!

A second entry for the Who’s That Gemsona event being hosted by @gemsonaresources! This is Fire Opal, another character from my Steven Universe fan comic.

I’d encourage you, if you have a gemsona, check out the event and make a submission!

WELL THIS WAS A LONG TIME COMING.

I’ve updated Chalcohphyllite! And her new look comes with her components!

Brazz, a peridot with a copper impurity that grants her minor electrical resistance.

 And Marin, an aquamarine who is shallow cut which makes her stronger than normal

Also: @gemsonaresources the second image is a PNG file( or should be, message me if it isn’t, I will submit the file to you.) for your gemsonaversary collab. Turns out I didn’t need the extra time after all.

Edit because I was a dingus who forgot Chal’s jacket/apron.

🌟🎂GemsonaResources is 5 Years Old Today!🎂🌟

     Happy birthday to my gemsona help blog! On July 25th, 2015, I made this blog on a whim to help fellow creators come up with ideas for their Steven Universe based OCs. Little did I know the ride that I would be taken on with this blog. I went in with no expectations and came out forming my own little community, that has amassed to almost 4,000 followers, within the fandom. Through art events, gift exchanges, contests, zines, and of course, new SU content, I’ve seen many of you come and go. Thank you for giving me this platform to try new things, help come up with ideas, and collaborate. I will miss what we have created together.      To celebrate what will be my blog’s last birthday, I invited SU fans to draw their gemsonas for a larger collaboration. It was the only theme that felt right for this blog’s last event. The turnout was amazing and I am so touched from all of you who dedicated their time into participating. Please give these artists the love that they deserve and check out the gemsonaversary tag for their entries! (P.S: My gemsona, Mojave Turquoise, is pictured in the center of the collab.)

[newgrean]

My entry for the “Who’s That Gemsona” event being hosted by @gemsonaresources! This is Turquoise (sometimes known as Blue) from the webcomic I really need to get back to entitled “CIA” (which you can look at here if you like).

If you’ve got a gemsona, I’d highly recommend joining this event! I believe it’ll be the last one @gemsonaresources does before closing down their blog and the more the merrier!

[triad9462]

@gemsonaresources this is my WIP for your event. And while I should be able to finish it by tonight. I might need the extra time.
