Description
I’m Novil, the author of the popular webcomic Gaia (proof ). I’d like to inform you about my artwork contest that is currently going on. Your drawing (or other piece of art) must clearly reference Gaia in some way.

The total prize money is $750! As you can see below, not only the best entry will receive a nice sum of money. If your drawing skills are just average, you will still have the chance to become one of the winners by drawing something funny, clever or innovative.

* 1st place: $200
* 2nd place: $150
* 3rd place: $125
* 4th place: $100
* 5th place: $75
* 6th place: $50
* 7th place: $30
* 8th place: $20

The contest ends on (including) Sunday, 26 August 2018. But if you really need a few additional days, I’m open to it.

Since many of you are probably not familiar with the characters, you should check out the following pages:

* Some of the best pages, part 1
* Some of the best pages, part 2
* The Cast page

Please send your entry in an e-mail with the subject “Gaia artwork contest 2018” to novil@gmx.de . You can attach the file to the e-mail or put a link to it in the e-mail’s text body. If you have a website that I should link, please put the link to it into your e-mail as well.

Additional information about the contest:

* You can submit several drawings or other types of art, but you can win at most two prizes.
* Please do not publish your artwork on other websites before the end of the contest. After that, you can post it anywhere you want.
* You can sign your work. But a large, ugly watermark will reduce your chance of winning.
* Digital images should be sent in their original size in a lossless format, for example as a PNG file with full color depth. If you draw the image on paper, you should send me a large, clean scan of it in a lossless format, for example as a PNG file with full color depth. However, you can’t attach files larger than 25 MB to your e-mail.

Please ask if you have any questions. But please be aware that I don’t have the time to explain to you in detail all that happened in the comic over the course of the last 7 years. You don’t need insider knowledge of the comic to succeed.
