Akadot's Second Annual Holiday Illustration Contest!
This is the biggest contest that Akadot has done ever! We've got a gangbang of anime prizes to give away this year. Grab your pencils and get drawing! Go out with a Yaoi bootie busting bang and ring in the new year!
It's the holiday season and we've got our Second Annual Holiday Illustration Contest back and better than before! As we've announced at the end of the Halloween Contest - we'll be accepting all entries, including the international ones! What's more - we're having a Grand Prize Winner, a First Place Winner, and two Runner-ups which means more chances for you to win! All you have to do is draw your favorite anime or manga characters in a winter holiday scene!
Need ideas? Many people celebrate the holiday season in different ways, so you may want to draw something that reflects the way you enjoy the winter season! Remember, all entries are judged on creativity, originality, and how the theme of the contest is incorporated into your masterpiece! All winners will be featured on Akadot once the results are announced! Honorable mentions will be posted on the Manga Academy Gallery page.
