Are you an illustrator and want your works noticed by the anime industry? Well here is your chance to be a part of the Worldwide Otaku Report which is being published by Ascii Media Works who brought us titles like Toradora, Oreimo, Railgun and more.
The Worldwide Otaku Report connects you with the anime industry and I want to highlight the talents of folks around the world who consume and enjoy Japanese Pop Culture.
All you have to do is upload an illustration of Mirai Suenaga to either Deviantart or Pixiv (preferably both) and we will chose some to be featured.
Ascii Media Works are not paying you for your work however so if you think thats bad then probably best if you do not submit anything. If however, you are a long term thinker and see this as a good opportunity to get your work out infront of many eyeballs (in particular the eyeballs of the anime industry) then submit away!
- All you have to do is make sure your work is at least A5 300DPI (preferably A4 350 DPI) and preferably in portrait format.
- You can leave your handwritten signature or pixiv/Deviant ID in your artwork but just dont have it covering the whole illustration.
- To submit your entry, all you have to do is leave a comment below with a link to your work on Pixiv or Deviant. Include in your comment below a way for folks to contact you - this will be published in the book along with your artwork - can be twitter, facebook or mail address. The work you upload should be tagged with "Mirai Suenaga" and the description should include a link back to this post and http://mirai.fm
- By submitting your work you agree to let Ascii Media Works publish your artwork in the book Worldwide Otaku Report and perhaps print posters of it to promote the book at events worldwide - the poster would have your name on it and will not be sold.
- You got 4 weeks from now until the 14th of August - but the sooner the better as we will take ones already submitted and start to do the layouts.
- Unfortunately we cant give copies of the books away to everybody who gets in the book - I'm planning to feature the talents of 100's of folks from around the world and sending out books to everybody would be difficult - also planning to feature the talents of cosplayers too (more about that in a separate post).
- Apart from Mirai Suenaga, you can include in your artwork any of the characters - Haruka Suenaga, Kanata Hoshikawa, Eiji Seiun or Retrokyu.
- Why does it have to be Mirai Suenaga? Because I like her.
- You will be contacted by mail if your artwork is chosen.
If you would like to submit an artwork that you have already done, make sure the full res is uploaded and leave a comment below. We cant print anything in the book without your permission.
Look forward to your entries!
And by the way - prepared this random fanart selection of Mirai Suenaga before I went to AFA Malaysia - if your work is not here then it should be on the Mirai Suenaga Fanart Pinterest - if not then leave a comment!
