Caluri Contest CLOSED

 
♥ Rules ♥

1. Both traditional and digital media are allowed. Colouring isn't necessary as long as I can tell that you put some effort in!
2. Both Yuri and Cala must be present in the artwork. There are two other characters you may also include if you like (more info on that below).
3. You may submit multiple entries, but you can only win once.
4. You may use references for your work, but no tracing or bases. If I catch you stealing anyone else's work you will be disqualified in short order.
5. Feel free to draw them in your own style, but please no ponies, homestuck, that kind of thing.

♥ About Yuri and Cala ♥
Yuri and Cala grew up together, so they are friends before anything else. They fight like an old married couple, but their love for each other runs long and deep as they've spent the last thirteen years of their lives together.
Yuri is a bit overprotective of Cala because of her insensitivity to pain, but he doesn't smother her. Cala is sometimes a little jealous of other girls who talk to Yuri, but she tries to keep that in check, and she trusts him unconditionally.
Yuri and Cala are pretty cutesy and cuddly a lot of the time, but they also have their fair share of arguments. _{usually due to Yuri's snarkiness}
All Current Artworks of Cala and Yuri can be found here.


♥ Other Characters ♥
Although this contest is mainly about Yuri and Cala, there are a couple of other canon characters you can include if you really want (this will not make you any more likely to win, though!)

Repede
Yuri's dog/sidekick. Yuri brought Repede back with him when he returned from the Knights. Cala loves Repede, although the feeling isn't entirely mutual. 
♥

Flynn Scifo
Yuri and Cala's childhood friend. Despite Flynn parting ways with them and staying in the Knights, the three still consider each other good friends. Once Cala is outed as a noble he starts treating her more formally, which Cala quickly shuts down.
