Sonic and the Black Knight – Fanart ContestHey Sonic fans, we’ve got a special treat for you – a fanart contest that will put your art in a Sonic game! That’s right, we’re picking the top 20 fanart submissions and adding it to the Sonic and the Black Knight game, plus the winners will receive the game itself (once it’s released of course)! We’re looking for artwork that best shows Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Amy, Shadow, Blaze and other characters (or any combination of one or more of them together) in your favorite scene from your favorite Sonic game. Submitting is easy! Simply head over to our Sonic Fan Art Game Gallery Contest page and sign up. We do have some restrictions, so please read carefully to be sure you meet the requirements: – You must be 13 or older to enter; we cannot accept any younger artists. – You must also have a SEGA Pass account to log in and submit with, if you don’t have an account the process for setting one up is extremely easy. – You must live in the US or Canada to submit on the North America contest page. Do keep an eye out for the European page updates, as this is a worldwide contest. – We cannot accept any art that contains characters that do not exist in the Sonic universe. If you are having trouble thinking of what to draw, pick up your favorite Sonic game and draw your favorite moment! If you think you’ve got what it takes, head over to the contest page and submit your masterpiece! Best of Luck!

Well, I just submitted my art work. I chose one I made a while ago that I think fit the rules perfectly. Now to play the waiting game.

Two questions regarding the contest:
1) Would events like Big’s journal entries in Sonic and the Secret Rings count as “scenes” from a Sonic game? There are pictures with each entry that show the events, and while they’re not exactly the same as your usual cutscenes, they ARE rendered with the game engine…they should count, right?
2) Are we allowed to insert characters that originally did NOT appear in the scene that we have chosen, so long as they are official Sonic characters?

I’ve got a few questions:
1. Does it have to be from a scene? Because I’d like to do a very large cast image instead.
2. Is there a limit to how many entries we can have?
3. Can we use scrapped characters, and characters who have been absent in recent games? (IE: Tiara, Honey, Fang, Mighty, etc.)

I have a question:
It says up there ”You must live in the US or Canada to submit on the North America contest page” I live in Mexico, then ”as this is a worldwide contest” so that means I can enter?
I don’t care if they can’t give me the game free, I only want to see my pic somewhere in the game 8D

I think all questions I’ve seen are summarized in the rules section of the contest page. For the person in Mexico:
“2) Eligibility: Contest is open to all legal residents of the fifty (50) United States, the District of Columbia and Canada, who are 13 years of age or older. ”
For the people wondering on multiple submissions:
“There is no limit to the number of different times you can enter the Contest, however, each Fan Art Submission must be new and completely different from any previous Entry you have submitted and each must be submitted as a separate entry/design file or separate mailed entry. There is a limit of one (1) prize per person.”

Does the drawing have to be of a cutscene, or can it just summarize the overall “feel” of the game? For example, is a picture of Sonic and Tails sitting in an area that has elements from Sonic 1 and Sonic 2 OK? It never really happened in the game, and I’m just wondering exactly how “creative” it can be woithout being disqualified or anything. By the way – it’s greatthat SOA is getting the fanbase involved with something like this, usually only Europe gets contests!

Thanks Clumsyorchid, I read all the rules now. It´s just that I REALLY wanted to enter in this contest and many of my friends here and in latinamerica too.
Please consider other countries to enter on future contests please, I know you are only notifying us.
Even if the SEGA can’t give a prize for the other countries.
There are many Sonic fans in every part of the World (I think thats great :D)
Thank you for responding my doubt 😉

Oh well, what a ‘worldwide’ contest.
I’m Spanish, and have no chance to participate! Why?! I’m also a Sonic fan! I think this is unfair. VERY unfair.
I’m not culprait I wasn’t born in an english-speaker country!
And btw, a game which shows us the past of Knuckles would be sweet. I mean, how was he left alone in Angel Island? Why is he the last echidna? Just an idea, of course 😉

I only had time to enter one contest entry. Hopefully they’ll accept it…
The whole ‘Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Amy, Shadow, Blaze and other characters (or any combination of one or more of them together) ” REALLY threw me off….. I wasn’t sure if they meant only those characters are accepted, or if you could include any official Sonic character you wanted….
I wonder when the results will be posted…?
