Duelyst MSPaint Art Contest #1

Welcome Duelyst fans (and memers) to the first edition of the MSPaint Art Contest!

Are we really doing this? Yes we’re really doing this.

Let’s get ready for our first ever MSPaint Art contest! You get on your paint program of choice and doodle us some Duelyst!

Submission Rules

  • To participate, you must submit an original new piece of Duelyst Art (made by you), be it a General, Minion, or even an Artifact or Spell !
  • Use that wonderful art-style we call “MSPaint”
    (So we don’t need any high polished art, anyone can participate)
  • You must have a name for your MSPaint included in the post.
  • The art piece must be easily identifiable without reading the name.
  • The MSPaint must include atleast 3 different colors on the body of the item.
    (This does not include the background.)

Contest Duration

  • Contest Submission phase will last one week.
    Starting from 01/15/2018 3:00 PM PST until 01/21/2018 3:00 PM PST.
    After that time this thread will lock and we’ll be receiving no new arts or updates.

  • Duelyst staff will then review the submissions and pick our Top Entries
    (Due to forum poll restrictions, we’ll be picking at most 20 Top Entries)

  • Public voting on the winners will begin the following week.
    Starting from 01/22/2018 3:00 PM PST until 01/28/2018 3:00 PM PST
    Voting will take place on a new thread/poll where the community can then vote on the winners.

Prizing

  • 1st Place - MSPainter Badge Title, Rare Crate Key + 300 Gold
  • 2nd-5th Place - Common Crate Key + 300 Gold
  • All other top entries - 3x Spirit Orbs (each!)

Additional Information

  • You can submit as many pieces as you’d like, however, only one piece can be chosen from our staff voting.
  • Feel free to make updates to your art piece as long as the contest is going.
  • Give a ‘Like’ to the pieces you think deserve a spot on our top entries! We’re expecting a lot of submissions, so help the best stand out from the rest.

Show us your inner artist!

I’m happy to see a new art contest, but I have some questions.

  1. Can I draw my entries on paper and then color them with a digital program?
  2. Does the coloring program have to be Microsoft Paint? I have a Mac, and thus don’t own that program.

Thanks

Don’t forget the submission rules


  1. As long as it matches the doodlying style of “MSPaint” this should be fine
  2. Does not have to be MSPaint, just MSPaint “style” (that’s why we put this at the top)

First time I’ve done any kind of ‘art’ since like middle school. Gonna try and draw something harder to do, tomorrow… if I’m not too lazy.

So that’s how khymeras “summon.” Ew.

Edit: Yes, this is still cute, even though it’s gross.

I think the art of the card is amazing and tells a story
(i hope this is ok for ‘MSPaint-Style’?)
