Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice ► Prosthetic Art Challenge Announcement ─ VaatiVidya

►Submit your designs to [email protected]
►Download the template here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1jJo...
►Rules: Come up with an original prosthetic arm attachment, design it, and tell us how it works..and you'll go into the running to get a piece of $1500usd, as well a portfolio shoutout on this channel.

Prize Distribution is as follows:
1st - $400 + Portfolio Showcase
2nd - $300 + Portfolio Showcase
3rd - $200 + Portfolio Showcase
4-10th - $100 + Artist Shoutout
11th+ - Humble Bundle Monthly Keys + Artist linked in Description (and maybe in video)

Submit your art (even if it's a draft) before February 22nd, and you'll be eligible for a Mystery Prize.

The final deadline is March 8th. I will be fairly strict with this date, but may allow some leeway on a case-by-case basis.

To assist your design, and to help with consistency..we've designed a template that I recommend you follow. It features an official piece of reference art, a space below for you to describe your weapon..and three angles of the arm that I recommend you draw over. Now..while it's mandatory that you try to fill out the written section below..nothing else here is. If you want to draw over one of these arm templates, that's fine. If you want to use all three arm angles - go for it! If you really want to, feel free to ignore these arm angles completely, and start from scratch. Imagine you were designing something for From Software's animation and gameplay team. All I want is to understand your design, and how it functions.

Speaking of function, let's go over the written section. If I was describing a weapon called the Loaded Axe prosthetic, I would say it's a weapon designed to crush your enemies' defenses. Its R2 performs a vertical smash attack..and its follow-up performs a double-bladed slice including the katana. Most follow-up attacks seem to use the katana in some way.

And finally..you can be as realistic or outlandish with your design as you want. Some of you might design a bow prosthetic..and some of you might decide to strap the Moonlight Greatsword to Sekiro's arm. From Software have always been realistic and ridiculous at the same time. You can be too.

Again, entries close exactly one month from now, on the 8th of March. Please submit your entries to [email protected]. Make sure you include your artist portfolio, social media, and PayPal address..in case you win. Considering there's quite a lot of prizes, please don't feel discouraged from entering. You'd be surprised at how few people do, and we all appreciate your art. If you have any questions, or wish to submit a draft within 2 weeks to be eligible for the mystery prize..please, go for it.

Good luck..and hey, remember the game's tagline: kill ingeniously.
