Hey everyone, I'm back with another contest that will hopefully keep you entertained or challenged until LittleBigPlanet 3 finally comes out!
Now, we've had many contests highlighting the amazing skills of creators in LBP, but I'd like to hold a contest for the creative types who create incredible things outside the game! The concept won't force you to create a level or a scene or a song! No, this time you'll be making... (As the title says)

The basic theme for this is going to be centered around anything and everything LittleBigPlanet 3! We've had amazing art featured on the official LittleBigPlanet Twitter account from members just like you who have been inspired to create something as they anticipate the arrival of the next generation of LBP! I thought it would be fun to get more of you involved in that same fun by throwing this neat art contest, so let's move on to the information you need and want!

Mediums
You don't have to necessarily draw so feel free to create whatever art you want! We will focus mainly on art outside LBP so avoid creating levels for this contest! That being said, you can go ahead redecorate your dad's car into a Sackmobile or dress your cat in an Oddsock costume! Also, you don't need expensive equipment, tools, or software to win, pencil and paper work great! *Updated to allow art created in LBP (details below)*

Rules and Guidelines
<ul><li>Create an original previously unpublished piece of art relating to LBP3<li>No more than one entry allowed<li>Post artwork here or send directly to me through any forum PM or Twitter<li>Publish your entry by November 2nd at 11:59 GMT (Click for easy conversion/timer!)<li>Entries can be changed only before the deadline<li>No copying/theft of art<li>Do not hire artist or order a commission<li>Lastly, enjoy the contest and respect others and their work!</ul>

You may be banned/disqualified from this contest if you are found guilty of misconduct against these rules!


Prizes
As I mentioned before I want to see plenty of great entries with a lot of sackfolk having fun, so these prizes are pretty nice!

Nice Contest!

Amazing contest! Best contest ever! Prizes are AWESOME!! LBP3 and a PSN card! Suddenly, if I can't create it from LBP2 I won't be able to participate, cause I dont know drawing that much!

I am so looking forward to the waves of fan art!

I'll probably enter this

Just submitted my piece! Not entirely in it to win it! But it would be nice to see how far my art skills can go! ;D

Perhaps a custom signature for 1st, 2nd and 3rd? So 3rd place at least gets something, . Also, the BB code in the 1st place spoiler is broken.

How about for 3rd place, a code for the LBP3 Release costumes!?

Wait, for first place are you able to choose which version of LBP3 you want? Cause I only have a PS3.

Cool as contest!

No matter; I'll draw!

You should! I'm hoping loads of people enter awesome art work!

I have definitely participate, I love to draw and thanks for the chance to win the littlebigplanet 3! n.n

Sounds awesome, I shall join as well.

Sorry for not being as interactive with you guys, but their has been personal issues (mainly school) and I couldn't find the thread for the contest on here!

Anyways, I am carefully considering every one of your ideas, especially in prizes and mediums allowed! I feel that there is finally more structure and hope to see many more entries within the next two months; I'm hoping to put up a much needed banner too!

Please note that the update section has been fully updated with all the questions asked recently, but continue to voice any concerns you may have!

It's fine! I too empathise with school, or college on my case, interfering with the cool happenings in LittleBigPlanet ;D

Hmm, I'll see if I can think of anything fast enough. Great idea by the way!

Final week guys! I appreciate everyone who has contributed and especially everyone who has helped in spreading the word! Also, make sure to check out the new updates to the prizes and everything! Good luck to anyone still putting in those finishing touches!

I know I'm not getting in because I'm bad at art.

So the end has unfortunately arrived! I've been without much computer (and Internet) access all day, but I'm finally glad to be back home with the chance to seal the contest!

First off, I'm very thankful for everyone who participated by art or encouragement! Everyone continually amazed me with their incredible entries although now I'm forced to make a very difficult decision from all the incredible works of art! I'll be sure to have the results posted as soon as I can so stay tuned for that! (Possibly in a week or less)
Also, the "Tasty Entries" section has not been updated in a while due to some issues, but I'm planning to compile those together soon, so don't be discouraged just because yours is not up there! (I've actually been meaning to put up an "in maintenance" GIF)

It's been a great experience doing this and hopefully I'll do something similar later on! I can honestly say that this has been the most exciting of all previous contests I've held before with much more community participation! Take care for now and see you all in LBP3!

EDIT: DM/PM me about anything related to late entries or other questions!
