Halloween/Festival of Shadows Art Contest

[natureluvr 647]

Hello again everyone! Thank you so much to everyone who entered the last content contest! I know a lot of people are excited for the month of Halloween, so this contest is going to run for the month of October and be Festival of Shadows themed! Aethier's version of Halloween is known as the Festival of Shadows and follows similar spooky themes as Halloween.

 

Submissions will close on October 28, 2020 and the winners will be announced on October 29, 2020! Some of the most popular submissions will be brought in game on image maps and displayed during the Festival of Shadows event over Halloween weekend!

 

Halloween/Festival of Shadows Themed Art

Submissions to this contest must be some sort of imagery/video, Halloween/Festival of Shadows/spooky themed, and strongly related to Aethier in some way. This could be art of a spooky event monster, art of the actual Festival of Shadows itself, art of Aethier characters dressing up, etc. Be creative! As always, incorporating artwork of characters/races that are harder to find art pieces for will increase your chances of winning. Depicting things that are unique to Aethier will help as well! You can submit as many entries as you'd like, but you can only win once.

This is my character Oberon's armorial, and depicts his family's history and tradition, and their baroque inspired way of life ("memento mori", remember that you'll die) through heraldic symbolism.

Just a goofy last minute image I felt inspired to draw. Clumsy ol' Erza not being good at the whole Mummy business.
