2nd loading screen artwork contest

This feeling of perhaps not being on the same skill level as the top contributors to the contest also gets to me…

Which art piece is yours?

Also all of the artpieces will be used in my spec evo videos. One of the changes I made for this contest is that the artist chooses if their piece will be considered for the loading screen artwork vote that will be done by the dev team.

@aah31415 Its your choice to decide if a piece you make will be voted on for a loading screen. If you look at all the art I made for the previous spec evo video I clearly have very low art skills but I have no issue making pieces to fill up the slots I need for the videos. Even if I put effort into an art piece I have a hard time handling complex 3D shadows and movement.

Is the thing with the art contest votes still that they can theoretically let in more than 1 artpiece per a contest into the loading screen gallery?

This is my artwork (still in progress, will continue work tommorow)

I went with 1 for the first contest due to only having three arts submitted. Depending on how many arts are submitted for this contest I’ll increase the amount of winning slots.

@Mr.Pukilar It is your choice when you post it into the art submission thread regarding if you want it to be a part of the loading screen vote. Regardless of your choice I want to see the final result (which I can still use although it may be in a future video as no clade currently has that angler fish like structure, or like with one of the clades in the current contest, you’re piece will influence a future clade or a subclade in the upcoming video)

Can my submitted art still compete for loading screen?


I drew upon family experiences when creating β€œLoss”.

That is a choice for you to make. (I felt that the first contest where all artwork would be voted on may have been too far and may have been a factor in the low number of arts submitted)

Also I do like how the piece looks more like a scan of a fossil (could be a cool piece to save for the society stage related images)

Do you follow some formula with the winning slot count?

So far no, but I may add an additional winning slot for every three arts submitted for the vote

Do I need to edit my description for art submission about it being also for the loading screen?

I just edited my art description to include it for Loading Screen art contest.

Quite a bit of those you have shared with us over your stay in this forum…

Would there eventually be a cap on the slots?

@AnthropocenianAge Yes. For the ones I posted for the discord users I asked them if they wanted to have them as part of the vote before mentioning it with their submission.

@aah31415 At some point certainly, but that will only be a consideration once we have a massive number of arts being submitted for the vote.

Which I don’t think would happen until MUCH later into the art contests so we’re saw for the time being
