Project: Moustache Illustration Awards – Open submissions
Deadline: 12.00 noon (GMT) – Monday 28th November  2011

Creature loves a good moustache, so full of character they can say a great deal about the face they are sat upon. So what would your moustache look like if it were to come alive and jump from your top lip? What stories would it tell and what kind of a personality would it have developed whilst growing on your face?

During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces in the UK and around the world. The aim of which is to raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men.

What to do?
Creature invites you to create your very own moustache character. Simply choose a classic moustache shape and develop it into a funny little Movember Moustache Character (just a guide, theme is open to interpretation). The moustache could stand completely on its own or be sat upon a face, it could be a quick doodle or a carefully developed personality complete with it’s very own family and history. It’s completely open to your interpretation and we can’t wait to see your moustaches come to life!

Deadline:
Send your submissions to Creature@creaturemag.com by 12.00 noon (GMT) – Monday November 28rd 2011. Throughout Movember we will collecting your Moustache creatures and publishing them all right here on Creaturemag.
