This massive fanart challenge was sponsored by Pixologic ZBrush, Wacom, Learn Squared and Russian game producer Leonid Sirotin (this is the guy who brought our most recent guest Roman ‘Amok’ Papsuev to game industry). The judges are also incredibly distinguished. There’s Maciej Kuciara (an amazing artist, who gave us a little interview this summer. We encourage you to check out his works, if you haven’t yet), Furio Tedeschi (Senior Character / Concept artist at BioWare Montreal) and Brad Rigney (Illustrator at SIXMOREVODKA).

The challenge is to re-imagine your favorite character, creature or vehicle from the Star Wars universe. We want you to be creative about it, you can cross universes or redesign within an existing universe as long as it’s a fresh and interesting take on the subject. Cyberpunk Boba Fett? Padme Amidala in a new beautiful dress? Gundam Darth Vader? World War II Millennium Falcon? Medieval stormtrooper? Battle wookies, nexu, bounty hunters, droids and other supporting characters, creatures and vehicles are acceptable. We want to see your unlimited power of imagination!
