KChan Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Dear Brandon Sanderson Fan Artists, The Coppermind needs your help! As you may know already, we are always striving to improve the quality and quantity of the content on our very own wiki, The Coppermind. However, we're still sorely lacking a crucial element: artwork. In a fandom that doesn't have the luxury of things like screen captures or scanned pages from a comic book or strategy guide, we have to rely on other means to visually illustrate the people, places, and things that make Brandon's worlds come to life. And that's where you guys come in! I am looking for art. Lots of it. It can be of anything we have a wiki article for - character pages obviously have an especially huge need, but anything that can be illustrated is fair game. If you're not sure, browse our articles until you're inspired! When deciding on what to submit, please keep in mind the following guidelines: Anything you submit must be your own work. Anyone can pull images off Deviantart; this art search is to encourage our amazing fan artists out there to contribute directly. You're amazing, and we want you to have a hand in making our fandom - and our wiki - even better! You may submit works that you've already done, or create new pieces. It's your choice. The Coppermind, like 17th Shard as a whole, is a family-friendly site. This means that no artwork featuring mature content will be accepted. There's a place for that type of art too, just not on a wiki. Artwork can be in color, black and white, monochrome, anything - but please make sure it's a finished piece that you actually put effort into. Refined sketches are okay if that's the aesthetic you were intending, but please remember: anything you submit needs to illustrate something, or someone, in Brandon's works. If we can't tell what it is, it's not ready to be featured on the wiki. Feel free to submit it later, once it's finished. We're not going anywhere. To submit your artwork, go to the Coppermind's file submission page to upload your submission. Make sure to include a small description of the work and credit to yourself in the Summary field. Artists who include their 17th Shard Username will receive a special forum award for submitting! IMPORTANT: Once you've submitted your artwork, navigate to its page and click the "edit" tab at the top, and then paste [[Category:Art Search Submissions]] at the bottom of the text entry field. This will add your image to the art search category, and will allow us to more easily see your submission. We might not see your art if you don't do this, so please don't forget! If you have any questions, just shoot me a line and I'll be happy to answer. Happy arting! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KChan Posted December 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Reminder: This is not the place to request artwork for yourself. The Creator's Corner is filled with many talented people; if you have any art requests, you can post them there. Please remember that hijacking threads is inappropriate, and while there is a place for all types of fun content in our community, it isn't in someone else's thread. That said, I'll be locking this topic. You can visit the discussion thread in the Coppermind forum for any questions, comments, etc about the art search. Thanks!
