Artwork contest 2017, with $1100 of prize money!
It’s time again for our yearly Sandra and Woo and Gaia artwork contest! It comes with a total prize money of $1100!
As you can see below, not only the best entry will receive a nice sum of money. If your drawing skills are just average, you will still have the chance to become one of the winners by drawing something funny, clever or innovative. Your drawing must clearly reference Sandra and Woo or Gaia in some way. You can also submit other types of art such as 3D models, action figures, fanfiction, or even (photos of) a cosplay costume.
- 1st place: $250
- 2nd place: $200
- 3rd place: $150
- 4th place: $125
- 5th place: $100
- 6th place: $75
- 7th place: $65
- 8th place: $55
- 9th place: $45
- 10th place: $35
Please send your entry in an e-mail with the subject “Artwork contest 2017” to novil@gmx.de. You can attach the file to the e-mail or put a link to it in the e-mail’s text body. You must submit your entry until (including) Monday, 21 August 2017. If you have a website that I should link, please put its URL into your e-mail as well.
Additional information about the contest:
- You can submit several drawings or other types of art, but you can win at most two prizes.
- Please do not publish your artwork on other websites before the end of the contest. After that, you can post it anywhere you want.
- You can sign your work. But a large, ugly watermark will reduce your chance of winning.
- Digital images should be sent in their original size in a lossless format, for example as a PNG file with full color depth. If you draw the image on paper, you should send me a large, clean scan of it in a lossless format, for example as a PNG file with full color depth. However, you can’t send me files larger than 25 MB by e-mail.
I think I’ll aim for the cash prize of the eleventh position.
@ Foye:
Dangit! That’s what -I- was going for!! 😉
Oooh. I know what I’m drawing tonight! In Woo We Trust… or In Woo… with food, we will feed.
Damn those Russian hackers!
Ooh, money, I could use that!
Hard to believe it’s been a year already, I hadn’t quite been evicted yet when the last one rolled around.
And, of course, my laptop is borky so I have to use an IPad app. Just not as useful as GIMP…
I’ve been reading this comic for a number of years, and always wanted to send in a worthwhile submission for this contest when I had reasonable drawing abilities. I still don’t, but I don’t care anymore. I’m sending in something this year and it’s probably going to be a disaster, but it will be my little disaster. Good luck everyone, I’m going to download some drawing apps and butcher some beloved comic characters!
@ Luke:
+1 LOL.
The only way to improve is by trying!
I’m 100% sure that your attempt(s) at art(s) is better than mine…
Please send one in! 🙂
@ TvTropesgotmehooked:
Aww thanks haha, I will send one in. Maybe I’m downplaying myself slightly, I have been drawing for a while. That said, I’m still aware that what I can come up with is nowhere near the quality as about 90% of previous contest’s submissions. It’s because I live by the philosophy of setting everybody’s expectations as low as possible so that they’ll be surprised when you do better than they thought, and then you’ll look good – even thought you’re actually not. Don’t do something actually good, do something better than what people expect, that’s my motto. It’s.. It’s a terrible way to live.
I don’t suppose we could get an extension? I’m working on it, but it’s just not congealing fast enough ;__;

Hope there is one cause I’m not having enough time due to work loads. Thanks a lots!
My PC died right in the face of your deadline.
Now I could only hope for an extension. Thank you.
