Popular Post Alieth Posted March 9, 2022 Popular Post Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) WINNERS ANNOUNCEMENT For this year, we tasked all our artists with representing what they, or their characters, consider being "Home", and to do so within the confines of the Star Trek universe. "Home" Home is where the heart is. When you hear the word, what is your character's first thought? What does home mean to your character, or to you? Is it a location, a person, a feeling, or an activity? We have two submission categories: Digital and Non-Digital. Our judges have pondered and deliberated over the beautifully crafted entries submitted for the StarBase 118: Graphic Contest 2022, and we can now reveal the winners are... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Digital Winner Kivik - Welcome to Amity Outpost Kivik smashed it out of the park with their rendition of what home means to an officer onboard Amity Station. Not only did Kivik achieve this with some showstopping pizzaz (check out that Defiant-class!) but also managed to make it feel like everyone is welcomed into the chaotic party. Fantastic presentation for the contest and an astounding well done! Our judges had this to say: Quote "Stunning. I already pointed out my favourite part in the forum, but the way you put this together, it brings us an insight about the outpost. I feel like each character has his traits there and honestly, I feel tempted to pay a visit sometime. Really good." "I want to praise Kivik complex composition, so many characters involved and interacting is a real challenge and a joy to see. Putting an element of so many characters in an image is a real treat." Non-Digital Winner Ikaia Wong - Home is Where Ohana Is A really surprising non-digital entry from Ikaia Wong has clinched the top spot for this category! Themes of home come through not only in the jigsaw representation of Wong's home city but also peeking through the underlayer of stars is the outline of Amity Outpost. This imaginative and creative piece if beautifully put together and throughout deserves the accolades! Our judges had this to say: Quote "Amazing. The most original entry. I was curious as your work progressed and you have really outdone yourself. Excellent work and if you permit a suggestion, please frame that for posterity." "Wong has an excellent imagination and a really creative approach to the medium, and needs to be commended for it since I never expected to see this type of medium together in this contest, even less in traditional mixed media!" All our fantastic entries will be displayed on the contest gallery page, with special features of the winners on our DeviantArt social media. You can find all of the entries on our forums here including all of the non-competing entries submitted for fun and stretching those creative muscles. Thank you to everyone who participated in the contest this year! Roll on 2023! Edited March 9, 2022 by Alieth 14 3
