Instagram Fan Art Contest Spring 2021

banner3

The SCP Foundation Wiki is known for the awesome stories, characters, and SCPs created by our wonderful authors. A more overlooked aspect of this community is the tons of fantastic artists that bring these creations to life. This contest is meant to promote these artists and give them a fun way to share their creations with the community.

Theme:
Cosmic Creations: Art featuring the far-out, space related, articles/characters/events/objects that exist within the SCP universe.

Earth isn't the only place in the universe that the Foundation's interested in. From titanic creatures swimming through the depths of space to entire civilizations lying in hibernation just below the surface of distant worlds, there's plenty of anomalies hidden among the stars.


Rules:

  • All art must be 100% original content created by the contestant. (Any stolen/plagiarised/traced media will lead to immediate disqualification and the submitter will be blocked from the page.)
  • No memes. There is a good possibility that we will hold a meme contest in the future, but this is not that.
  • Each contestant may only enter 1 submission.
  • Contestants caught trash-talking or being overly rude on theirs or other contestant's posts will be disqualified.

How to Enter:

  • Pick an aspect of the SCP universe that fits the theme and create your fan art. (For example, just about everything in the Ad Astra Per Aspera canon would work for this. If you're not sure what to draw, try delving through the extraterrestrial tag for something that catches your fancy.) Art can be done on any medium, E.g: painting, digital, drawing, sculpture, animation, etc.
  • Format your art for Instagram.
  • From April 1st – April 19th submit your art via DM to the @scpfoundationwiki Instagram account. (Your message should include your art, the character, Goi, scp, etc. depicted, and your username. If you'd like, a short one-sentence descriptor for your piece can be included.)
  • From April 20th – April 25th each submission will be posted to the SCP Instagram account and the creator will be tagged. (To ensure fairness, entries will be posted in order of submission.)
  • April 26th – May 6th voting will be done through Instagram likes.
  • Wait for the results!
