StarBase 118 Staff Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 The Graphics Contest was recently retired after more than a year of amazing graphical creations. There are some fond memories and incredible artwork over the time-period it ran, and we’d like to take a look back and recognize what this contest brought to the group. The Starbase 118 Graphics Contest started in fall of 2014 as a way to recognize the amazingly talented artists in our community. There were eight total rounds, covering everything from holiday themes to designing the Space Station Astrofori 1. Over twenty artists participated, and they created over 50 wonderful entries for us to marvel over. The Graphics Contest was run, and judged by, Captain Jalana Rajel, commanding officer of the USS Constitution-B and facilitator of the StarBase 118 Image Collective. Captain Rajel brought this creative contest to life and gave us many months of great pictures that made us think, smile and brought StarBase 118 to life. The contest started out with categories for people and world-building, but as it grew many of the entries spanned both categories. So later contests had one general theme for contestants to fulfill. Some of the highlights of the contest include: A hilarious gallery of Christmas entries from 2014, including winners Fleet Captain Cascadia Rainier and Lt. Commander Tyler Kelly The gorgeous Spring 2015 gallery, including Lt. Commander Talia Kaji’s peek into her favorite Gorn’s downtime and Lt. Commander Kellly’s stunning comic book cover art showing his previous commanding officers. Summer 2015’s uplifting gallery, including winner Lt. Antero’s Flynn’s inspirational “Legacy of the Federation” retro poster Lt. Commander Rune Jolara’s winning entry for Halloween 2015: Monster Trek. A chilling autumn 2015 gallery showing artist’s depictions of fear, featuring winner Lt. Commander Aiyana Sevo’s haunting computer generated artwork. And a Jolly Holiday 2015 gallery showing off winner Admiral Toni Turner’s lovely ornament styled artwork. You can spot graphics contest winners and runners up by the badges they wear on their forum signatures or their wiki profiles. Take a moment to walk down memory lane and appreciate some of the great artwork done by our members, and keep an eye out for what incredible contests and showcases we have in store in the future.
