Time for a new contest!  Yay!

The subject this time around is metal.

Unforgiving and unyielding, metal has so very many uses.  Shackles and chains, cages, interesting and uncomfortable gags, weapons and instruments of torment... metal is everywhere, lending its unique blend of properties to the distress of our favorite male subjects.  Why not grab yourself some metal and see what wonders you can create?

le Pesky Rules(that need to be followed, anyway)

This contest is for members only. If you want to join in, but aren't a member yet, joining is free and really easy. I promise, we don't bite. Not unless you ask nice.

Your submission will be accepted under most any terms, so long as it holds true to the contest theme, the group theme of distressed gentlemen, and the deviantArt ToS.

#DistressedGentlemen is a group that accepts work of almost any kind through any medium--digital, traditional, photography, literature, 3-D, vector, flash, photomanip, you name it! However, this MUST be a new submission created specifically for this contest. I also ask that you refrain from plagiarism and collaborations within this contest. Getting ideas from admins and using them as inspirations won't be considered collaborations (as I plan on giving the same suggestions to anyone who asks), but if you take the idea verbatim and claim it as your own, then we've got a problem. Trust me, the more you put in, the more you'll get out.

Though we are a GiD group, we are NOT strictly a bondage, yaoi/slash, or sexually oriented group. If you have an idea for a heterosexual fiction, then go for it! No bondage, clothes on? Bring it on! Just make sure that the one in trouble is a gentle (or not-so-gentle) being of the male persuasion.

Lastly, please, please, please label your contest entry!  You've got unlimited space in the Artist's Comments, just toss it in there!  You wouldn't want to miss out on a prize because no one knew your entry was an entry.

Deadline for this contest will be 11:59 PM US EST on May 25th, 2013.
