Hanako Games Holiday Fanart Contest - Winner Announced!

#1 by hanako - Dec 1 2007

(This one's art-only, no stories, but fear not, there will be story contests again sometime...)

Draw a holiday-themed picture of any character from any of our games and you can win a free game of your choice.

'Our Games' does not include Aveyond (amaranthia may have their own christmas contests though!) and I can't give out a free copy of that. If you're not sure which games are mine, feel free to ask.

It doesn't have to be Christmas. As far as I know none of the characters are Jewish so a Hanukah picture might be a little strange but hey, your art, do what you want.

The number of winners will depend on the number of entrants. You never know with art contests, sometimes nobody feels like entering...


To enter, draw your holiday picture and post it here on the forums!

Ooohh this contest sounds interesting. I'm not sure if I'll enter since I'm pretty bad at art but I might consider it anyway. I was wondering if the art can be computer-generated. I'd try hand-drawing but I don't have a scanner so I don't know if that'll work.

#3 by hanako - Dec 2 2007

Computer-painted is fine as long as it's your work - obviously just taking a screenshot from the game and slapping a santa hat on it wouldn't work

#4 by phoenixgirl - Dec 4 2007

Thanks.

Oh I was wondering. Is there a deadline by which participants should submit their artworks?

#5 by hanako - Dec 4 2007

Um.... By New Year's, I guess.

#6 by phoenixgirl - Dec 5 2007

Thank you. Well, I'll see if I can squeeze in some free time and try my hand at this contest.

#7 by Mirk - Dec 5 2007

Just asking for clarification: Limit one entry or just post however many? Prefer linked URL over inserting the picture directly? Thanks for any reply.

#8 by hanako - Dec 5 2007

Post as much as you want but you can only win one prize per person.

Um... Posting a URL is better if the picture is HUGE because it's hard to see big pictures properly on a forum.

Hello everyone,

My apologies that my entry for the contest will be delayed due to the massive icestorm that left me and around half a million Oklahomans without power for the last week plus....

The header pic for that linked page was taken about two miles from my home here. I've had a chainsaw in my hand more oft than a graphic pencil.

At least the utilities are back on where I'm at and everyone in the family is safe.

#12 by hanako - Dec 18 2007

Yikes! What a mess. We had a giant ice storm like that once years ago when I lived in Memphis... some of my schoolmates were out of power for weeks. Ours wasn't out too long, we were lucky. I remember sticking milk outside under an upside-down laundry basket to keep it cold...

My crazed contest entry

#13 by Mirk - Dec 29 2007

Welp, after a week of cutting trees and putting the house back in order....
I only had one sketch done and my main computer fried due to power surge.
I colored this one from my kids' watercolors since photoshop was out...

Have fun, and laugh, myself and the kids did...

Doesn't matter where you post it, I can split it out into its own thread if I feel like it, I have the Admin Powers!

Oooh, MAGIC XD.

About my entry; I was planning to make it look like an ending ( "santa" )
With text and such. But my drawing program didn't allow me to add another picture into another.
I also was going to make her sit on a...Whatever Santa sits in while saying 'hohoho' and flying all over the world.

But then I got lazy, and decided not to do it >o<;;

So when are you gonna finish up the contest?

EDIT: Haha, I'm poster number 100 on this forum(Fan works) x3

sweetalex52!

(A sparkling fairy hovers overhead and drops a 'Free Game' token for the winner and 'Discount Game' tokens for the rest of the entrants)

Er, since we're a little lacking in fairies, it's best just to PM me and say what you want. You don't have to use them now either, if you want to wait for a future game to be released and then PM me and say "Hey! I want my discount / free game!" I can get that working for you.

#18 by Mirk - Jan 2 2008

Congratulations Sweetalex52!

And Happy (somewhat belated) New Year to everyone!
