The #fakemonsixstars contest has finally arrived! This is YOUR chance to put a #fakemon into my fangame! The contest runs on Instagram, Bluesky, Tumblr & Cara. Big thank you to my goated co-developer @tommasonardellart.bsky.social for making the background!
It's no secret that I love Bug type pokemon, but do you know what I like even more? That's right, BUG FAKEMON! So, the theme of my art contest will be Bug types! But not just any bug type fakemon, I want all of you to design the regional bug of Kirstria, my fangame's region. The winner of this contest will be part of my finished fangame, Fakemon Six Stars. Any form of art is appreciated for this, I will purely look at the designs. My favorite design will be the winner. This is very subjective, as is usual with art contests, but there are some rules to follow and ways to score bonus points... 1. Your fakemon must be Bug type. 2. It has to be a three stage evolutionary line. 3. If you use AI, you give me permission to behead you. You need to tell what type it is, but the stats, moves or abilities are optional and not required for your entry. I am positively biased towards Bug/Fairy types and arthropods that you can naturally find in Slovenia or Croatia, the countries Kirstria is based on. So if you do either of these, that's some extra bonus points to you, but they're not required for your design to win. Post your creations using #fakemonsixstars , and @ me as well. Make sure that I've seen your entry before the contest deadline. Said deadline being.. The 31st of August! That is when I'll announce the winner and honourable mentions. You have over a month to create and post one single design for this contest. That's right, there's only one entry per person. If you post multiple, I will consider your latest one before the deadline as your entry. Lastly, the winner will also get an IOU from me in the form of 3 pixel art fakemon sprites in any style they want, as long as they don't have to be animated sprites. I'll appreciate every single entry I get. Thank you for participating, and good luck to all artists!
