Call for Entries

Past Call for much needed #2Cute2Fail

Too many reflections in wildly distended pupils? The more the merrier! Going that extra mile to sugarcoat the drawing in rainbow glitter? Appreciated! Pushing bug-eyed babyfaces to off-the-chart cuteness levels? Hell yeah!


Pictoplasma and Clip Studio Paint asked you to:


Heal the world with an XXL portion of off-the-chart character cuteness.


Dark times call for desperate measures, so we're relying on you to fight back with an extra king-size portion of eye-candy exuberance and character kitsch. Pictoplasma's new Call for Entries invites international illustrators, designers and animators to join the #2Cute2Fail challenge and create insanely cute characters that guarantee to activate warm, fuzzy feelings in even the iciest of hearts.


That's right: We're talking bright, shiny eyes, cherubic chubby cheeks, unicorn-escapism, kitten overkill, pug puppies by the truckload, giggling micro piglet explosions and saccharine flare-ups. Use any medium or tool you like—from digital drawing to vector illustration or 3D rendering, from illustration and graphic design to animation—all we ask is that you kill them with cuteness like above cuties by Droolwoll!


From all submitted entries a jury will make a selection of ten finalists, who will win a lifetime license for Clip Studio Pro donated by CELSYS, the artist’s software for digital painting and illustration. One winner will additionally be gifted with a lifetime license of Clip Studio Pro EX and free registration to the Pictoplasma Berlin Conference 2020, granting full access to all lectures, workshops, screenings, exhibitions, presentations and parties—including flight and accommodation!!!


UPDATE: We have winners (everyone's a winner, all of you are #2cute2fail)!


These are the 9 finalists (Free lifetime Clip Studio Paint EX perpetual license): BOOKY MARGOOF, CARAMELA ILUSTRACION, KLEMENT, EL RIVAS, EVGENIA GOLUBEVA, FINGER INDUSTRIES, LISA VERTUDACHES, MOKO KÓ, RENEGADES OF PHONG and the main challenge winner (Clip Studio Paint EX perpetual license + Free Pictoplasma 2020 pass incl. travel and accommodation)TIMOTHY WINCHESTER.


Congratulations! And Thank you all again for sharing small pockets of comfort in these troubling times. 🙌
