Monthly Spriting contest #1

I wanted to make a fun competition for all the people who can sprite so I made this contest.
(Note: You can NOT make a sprite contest for Avadopts creatures, I got special permission, maybe you'll be able to be a judge for the contest.)

Mechanics:
In this contest you have to try and sprite the animal hybrid I (or someone else)make up for a certain nation, (It will be random which nation it will be but I will never have 2 contest for the same nation in a row) right now the animal hybrid is a Walrus-Dolphin. (Water tribe creature) This contest will always go on from the first of the month, to the 25th of the month.

Rules:
-This is not a chat thread, only post here if you have questions about the sprite contest or for you to enter your creatures/
-You are allowed to have someone sketch for you but you will split the rewards with them.
-Do NOT use any of the sprites here in any of your sites as that is Art Theft and you'll get in deep trouble.
-If you read this you'll include badger in your post.
-Do NOT criticize creations in this thread, this goes for judges too. That will be handled in secret.
-Only post FINISHED sprite families here.

Important things to remember:
-By submitting your creations to this contest you know that we are free to use/edit these creatures without further notice.
-You can always revise your entry by the deadline.
-These are mammals, so you have to make 3 young ling stages. (1 of the youngling stages replaces the egg and 2 young lings replace the hatchling, it still doesn't gender till the 3rd young ling stage.)
-The base Animal is your choice.
-The only kind of dolphin you could use is a bottle nose dolphin, and a common dolphin.
-Dimorphism is optional.
-You don't have the post descriptions, the judges will decide descriptions once we decide on which was the winning sprite.

Judges:
DragonTamerChris
PhazonDragon
SilentSkieBlue

(I'll pm people I think would make good judges later. )

Rewards:

Yes, finally, rewards. The prize of winning is 500,000 GP and of course your creature being put in Avadopts. The prize of making a sprite that gets a good rating is 50,000 GP so you can get GP just for trying. (and not for people who think they can make a 3 second sprite :p)

Remember, you are spriting a hybrid of a walrus and a dolphin.
If anything is confusing, please post, good luck with your entries!

Badger!

Do you want us to sprite just the adult stage?

No, all the stages, if you look at the things to remember it says you have to make all the stages.

Do we only sprite it or do we have to shade it too?

You have to do EVERYTHING you need to do for a normal creature, it is a sprite for avadopts.

Does this mean we have to write the description? Or can we have someone else do that/help?

We'll decide descriptions after we decide the winning entry.
