Plot

It has been a while since our last community event and we are pleased to announce our latest

MCA & Banner Art Contest.

Firstly, we are aiming to update the official card images for MCA cards. Currently these 8 monsters do not have an official card image.



As such we are opening it up to be filled by the artists in our community.


Art Contest Rules

There will be 8 categories for MCA Art. One for each monster.

Second, we are also looking to showcase fresh banners on our platforms. Therefore, we are opening this as a category as well.

Below is an example of a banner.

A Community Favourite for each category will be determined by vote in the forum or Discord.

Prizes for each category:

1st Place 2nd Place 3rd Place All other participants Event Point Coin x20 Event Point Coin x15 Event Point Coin x10 Event Point Coin x5 100 Point Coin x15 100 Point Coin x10 100 Point Coin x5 Pancakes x150 Famous Artist Title Famous Artist Title Famous Artist Title Costumer Voucher x1 Costumer Voucher x1 Costume: Artist Hat


If the GM Team are especially impressed with your artwork, we may select through staff vote for it to become our official in-game card image or as a banner in our platforms.

These will be independent of its placement in the Community Favourite vote.

The prizes for that are as follows:

Prizes for selected Card Art and Banner Art

Selected Artwork Costume: Artist Hat New Artist's Costume 100 Point Coin x15 Famous Artist Title


Criteria for MCA Art

   The artwork should have an acceptable level of finesse and completed-ness. Try not to rush it.
   There must be emphasis on the "Grand-ness" of the subject mobs to set it apart from regular mobs. 
   If a new player compared the card image against that of a regular mob, without being told they are different, would they be able to differentiate a Grand Marin from a regular Marin?
   Creativity. While the mobs look exactly like a regular mob in-game, we allow and encourage players to add as much of their flair and creativity as possible to distinguish the Grand Mobs from regular ones. Art styles other than digital arts are accepted as well.
   The artwork has a strong focus on one of the eight mobs as the main subject of the art piece.
   As much as you can please curate the artwork to be able to fit within the dimensions of the card frame. The artwork must still look good and make sense when cropped to fit the card frame.
   As an example, the dimensions supplied below is 588 x 750 pixels.


Criteria for Banner Art

1. The artwork should have an acceptable level of finesse and completed-ness. Try not to rush it.

2. Whenever possible, the banner should showcase our server's unique-ness. What info & story can it convey that sets out server apart from others?

3. Our server's logo must be included in the banner. Attached below.

Please resize this to fit in the same format of our example banner.

4. As much as you can please curate the artwork to be able to fit within similar dimensions of the example banner supplied. The artwork should still look good and coherent when used across our platforms. (Such as streaming.)

As an example, the dimensions supplied below is 468 x 60 pixels.

We aren't too fussy with the dimensions for this category but do use our mentioned dimensions as a guide.
